Game #438 - JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH

[Jim E]

Game version 1

One picture from one movie:

Rule 1:
NO IMAGE HOSTING ON EXTERNAL SERVERS.
Images for the games need to be ATTACHED to the post, and thus uploaded to our server.

Rule 2:
TWO GUESSES PER PERSON PER POSTED PICTURE!!! Those two guesses are not allowed to be in the same post, NOR in a consecutive post. I.e. you can post one guess, then have to wait for someone else to guess: your second guess is not allowed to be immediately following your first guess.

Rule 3:
The WINNER of the game can start a new game IN A NEW THREAD.
NO ONE ELSE (unless yielded so by the winner).

Rule 4:
Once there's a winner, PLEASE post the correct name into the thread (spelled correctly, and capitalized correctly, and not in italics or bold face.)

Rule 5:
The correct title format is: "Game" / space / "#" / number.
Example: " Game #12" (without the ")
(no space between the # sign and the number!)

Rule 6:
The film selected should be one that has had an international, theatrical release.
I.e. a made-for-TV movie only shown in the USA would hardly be a fair entry, as
we have international players also.

Rule 7:
These complete rules (1 to 7) have to be copy & pasted into each new game's first post.

First cold, then hot....

Hmmm. Looks like a marching band.

Drumline (2003) ?


LOL!

[Jim E]

CORRECT! It is a marching band...

[Jim E]

Baesd on a novel, which was in turn inspired by a scholarly book.

There have been four film versions of the story, seven television adaptations, one stage production, a Disney ride, a water ride, a video game, a board game, and a radio serial...

It's gotta be "Journey to the Center of the Earth"... Jules Verne novel, L.B. Abbot effects...

[Jim E]

Good grief!!!!

I would have bet there were many other films with all those credentials, but obviously not.

"JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH", the 1959 version using L B Abbot's effects, is correct!

Janke wins again!

[Almohada]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzz..........

[Janke]

I actually once attended a seminar by Abbott, in Stockholm back in the 1980s, I think he called it "Special Effects - Wire, Tape And Rubber Band Style" - just like a book of his that I have...

To be honest, the miniatures don't look too good in this film, especially the animals - gluing small horns on a chameleon is rather pathetic, at lest by today's standards!

If Al wants to host the next game (hey, I'll be generous and give you 16 hours from now, this time ) - then let him do it, otherwise, I'll cook something up tomorrow morning EU time...

[Almohada]

Hmmm so that would be 8:00 PM my time I think. So if I go to bed now I'll probably wake up at 4 pm which gives me a few hours. Yeah I think I can do it. Just need to remember that darn film I watched!!!!

[Janke]

Al, are you a nocturnal, diurnal or perhaps omniurnal creature ? You probably need a lot of caffeine...

[Almohada]

Don't drink coffee! Once in a blue moon. I'll whip something up game #439 shrtly...

[Janke]

Time's out, Al - I'll be posting a new game #439 in about ten minutes...

[Almohada]

Go ahead.... still looking for that damn movie on YOUTUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!! I think they removed the video so no wonder why it's not in the history..............
