[COTM] Challenge 1 Red Team

[mastin2]

Quick heads up: having some internet troubles, and I'll be opening my game that I'm modding tonight, so I'll be a little bit busy/unavailable for most of today.

As soon as both inconveniences pass, I'll be able to give this my full attention.

[mastin2]

Movie 3, only casino-scene-movie I can think of is Casino Royale.
Movie 4, the obvious choice seems to be the movie Nosferatu.
Movie 6, I'd say Star Wars Episode IV/A New Hope/The Original Star Wars.
Movie 7, maybe The Davinci Code?

I don't have anything resembling guesses for the others, and even here, I'm pretty dang horrible.

[mastin2]

Alright, taking a stab.

Guess Movie 4: Nosferatu.

It could also be from an old Dracula film, but I don't know dracula films by title.
(I have to admit that if I'm wrong on this one, I'll feel sorta stupid for obvious reasons. )

Guess Movie 7: The Davinci Code.

[mastin2]

I feel like if I had a table of the incorrect guesses, and the images we've yet to guess, I could maybe get movie 6 for instance, but I can't put that work in right now.

[mastin2]

Movie 2 is obviously something to do with the 50s or so...

It can't be Back to the Future, but...
That scene looks VERY familiar to me.

I'm almost positive Movie 4 is an old horror film. The options there are limited. Dracula (best guess), Frankenstein, The Mummy, Chucabara, there aren't that many.

Movie 6 is something exploding in space--you can see the outline of something solid there. Trust me on that. Also needing trust: it's approximately 80s, on original Star Wars levels and Star Trek Movies levels. I remember the difference between the graphically-enhanced, updated explosions and the original-as-in-theaters, tech-of-the-time explosions. This is the latter. It MUST be a space film which features an explosion.

We know it's neither of the two Star Wars films with an explosion (don't waste a guess on Empire Strikes Back, which I'm pretty sure has none), so that leaves Star Trek.

Star Trek,
Wrath of Khan (I'll need to check the colors there--if those blues, purples, and such are a nebula, then it's DEFINITELY Wrath of Khan),
Star Trek III (the Enterprise itself, plus the whole planet, both explode in that film).

I can't say I've seen Star Trek V, so I'm not sure there.

But I think it's one of those three, most likely. I just can't pinpoint it further.

Movie 7 might be Ghostbusters now that I think about it. It's either that, or something which features God. I

know

it has something to do with non-normal life. Either supernatural, or religious.

For 18, is Girl with the Dragon Tattoo possible?

That's literally all I have to offer.

[mastin2]

Hmm...the top triangle in the corner of the image for movie 6 looks like it might be the tip of a ship, which would indicate Klingon.
VI Undiscovered Country was already guessed, so it can't be that.
There wasn't a Klingon ship in II, III that exploded, or IV that exploded. So if I'm right, it can't be those.

I can't vouch for V, but...

It could MAYBE be Generations, though. There was a Klingon explosion there.
I hadn't thought about that, but it's the same tech level.

I kind-of want to risk a guess at Generations, and if that's wrong, Star Trek the Motion Picture (there were Klingon explosions there), or vice-versa.
Those two are our best bets in my opinion.

[mastin2]

Ah hell.

Guess Movie 6: Star Trek Generations.

[mastin2]

Movie 5 I think is that one film...I can't remember its name though.
A latino guy, married to the girl from Spy Kids, did a dance number from it.

That film is what it is I'm pretty sure.
The frustrating thing is, I think I know that film, I just don't remember its name.
The whole cast was filled with people of color dancing in advertisements, mostly to hip-hop music, but I can't remember the actual film name.

[mastin2]

Yeah, I got nuthin'.

Like I said.
For that one film.

I remember seeing it advertised.
There were dance-battles involved in the film. The actors were all of color. I remember it and going like, "this is probably like a modern version of dirty dancing or something" when it was advertised.
This couldn't have been THAT many years ago. Definitely within the last six. But outside sources are forbidden so I can't look it up to remember the damn name!
Doesn't anyone remember seeing it advertised?

Because I KNOW the film.
I saw it advertised, a BUNCH, a few years back.

I also know, for a fact, THAT SAME FILM was what that one singer-guy who's married to the girl-star from Spy Kids did in Dancing with the Stars: his first perfect score dance, the one where he went shirtless, and thought he had screwed up majorly, and which in the finale (after he had been eliminated) he got to have a redo of. The dance he was doing there was from

this movie

. I know it. I know this much.

I just CAN'T. REMEMBER. THE. DAMN. NAME.

This is

so

frustrating.

[mastin2]

No. Definitely not. That's too old. That's 8+ years ago, and it's entirely the wrong cast. (I've actually SEEN High School Musical. And its sequel.)

I'm talking about something that was fairly RECENT.
Like, recent, recent.
Maybe within the last two years, recent. It could be older than that, my memory's not the greatest.
But it's something that had adds on for it.

[mastin2]

Yeah, I got nothing other than what I've said already.

[mastin2]

Eh, let it run.
