The "Guess the movie screenshot" Game

Geezer, the fact that they don't fight was the basic point of the movie. It was showing us that so many people are shipped off to war but very few people get to do anything important. In the end, many of us will regret ever serving because of what we did and why we did it.

Same thing with Platoon. Not much war and a lot of characters regretting, but we all remember it as a great war movie.

Then the point of the movie was stupid. Its boring. Its not entertaining. Its pretty much pointless.

But isn't that exactly what happened in real life? The war only lasted like 18 days or some shit, right?

Whether it is or it isn't does not matter. If that is what happened, there was no real need to make a movie about it. Because there was no story, no characters you could care for (because there was no story to them) and no action to fall back on when you realize that you have no story. Which leaves you with a steaming pile of bull feces for a film.

After a month of no activity (due to the Jarhead debate), I'm going to bring back this thread. Here is the one that we left off with.

Lets re-start this. Here we go, a brand new pic:



WHEN YOU GUESS IT PUT UP ANOTHER SCREENSHOT. DON'T DISCUSS MOVIES SO THE THREAD DOESN'T GO COLD.

JCVD.

And what is mine above that one?

And here is the next one:

That was Drop Dead Fred, wasn't it?

No W, the first one is not Drop Dead Fred.

Hints for both films:
1.an in-name-only adaptation of a short story from a popular novelist
2.Canadian film, werewolves

I'm pretty sure something like this happens in The Virgin Suicides.

EDIT: when i quoted you i saw the movie name in the image title. so it's not TVS.

It is not The Virgin Suicides. As I mentioned, this film has to do with werewolves.

Is the older one The Lawnmower Man?
Is the newer one Dog Soldiers?

The Lawnmower Man is correct.

But the other one isn't Dog Soldiers.

No, the last one I think is Ginger Snaps, but Leestu is definitely correct with Lawnmower Man.

The last one is Ginger Snaps.

And on The Lawnmower Man, it's humorous to note how Jeff Fahey and Trey Parker look alike.

I don't know if both Leestu and I should post a screenshot now, but I'll go ahead anyway:

My Beautiful Laundrette?

Certainly. you're turn.

I'll let Leestu go first. I don't want to throw off anything.

Looks like Leestu never responded, so I will try to restart this.

I know it, but I'm not going to go search for another one.

Sorry I never realised you guys were waiting for me . I was quite happy for Surfer to continue the game. I do apologise.

It's Pulp Fiction!

Your turn.

You too, Leestu.

Note: next person has to get both correct.
