Quiz: Name that movie

[IndecentLouie]

@Frindis is it Eraser? If i'm correct I don't mind someone else having a go.

 

[Frindis]

Last hint:

 

[Pifanjr]

Predator?

 

[Frindis]

Correct answer: Commando [1985]. Not even close to being as good as the Predator movie, but it is a cool action movie and recommended watch for some over the top action scenes and cheesy one-liners.

Since you were closest @Pifanjr feel free to post one

 

[Pifanjr]

This one is probably pretty easy:

 

[Frindis]

@Pifanjr It's the movie with Nicolas Cage as an arms dealer. Lord of War is the name

 

[Pifanjr]

@Pifanjr It's the movie with Nicolas Cage as an arms dealer. Lord of War is the name

Correct!

 

[Frindis]

An often obligatory movie to be shown at high school, so I reckon most of you might have seen this one then or at a later time:

 

[Pifanjr]

Based on the black and white and it being shown in high school: Schindler's List

 

[Frindis]

That is correct @Pifanjr

 

[Pifanjr]

Let's start with the most vague picture I could find

 

[Frindis]

*Starts singing* I'm on a boat! 🍜 Could it be Hangover 2? The guy in front kind reminds me of Zach Galifianakis.

 

[IndecentLouie]

@Pifanjr is it Batman v Superman? or Man of Steel?

 

[Pifanjr]

It's none of those. I'll give another hint. This should be a lot easier if you've seen the movie.

 

[IndecentLouie]

@Pifanjr I Like this movie, Triangle?

@Pifanjr I Like this movie, Triangle?

Yes, it's Triangle. I really enjoyed watching it. One of my friends in university told us he wanted to show us an amazing movie, but didn't tell us anything else about it, which I think made it much better than if I'd known what to expect.

*waiting with excitement* for @IndecentLouie

Here is another one:

 

[Rensje]

Pretty sure that's The Matrix?

Some may think the film is a bit overrated but it's easily one of my all-time favourite science fiction flicks. It holds up beautifully 20 years later, and I love that this film's stunts were mostly practical where its sequels went much harder on the CGI. The fantastic Trinity wall-run at the very beginning of the movie never fails to get me hyped for what's to come, and the film never disappoints.

 

[Frindis]

That is correct @Rensje. Trinity wall-run, the martial arts training, the Morpheus rescue, metro fight and so much more. I watched the movie as a teenager and it blew my mind

Same! The hallway scene, too. The 'Dodge this' fight, there's so much good stuff in this film. I'm sure you could poke it full of holes if you really wanted to, but how would that be different from any other genre classic that we've come to love through the years?

Anyway, time for a new challenge. I think this is a rather easy one. It's recent, too. A film that is at times challenging to watch and a very slow burn, but the payoff is there if you have the patience.

 

[Frindis]

@Rensje Got a new one perhaps? I don't think anyone is going to get this one. I do like the picture though; too bad I can't think of any movie it could be from.

 

[Rensje]

Here's another still from the same movie. If no one gets it within the next 24 hours I'll move it along with a scene from a different film altogether.

 

[Frindis]

*looking around for that other 🎬*

 

[Rensje]

So the movie y'all didn't manage to guess is Suspiria, the horror remake starring Dakota Johnson and Cate Blanchett. It's a great movie that seemingly hasn't reached a very wide audience. It's an Amazon Prime exclusive, I think. Worth a watch if you're a subscriber.

Here's another one for you guys to guess:
