Quiz: Name that movie

[Brian Boru]

Another week, another pic—since it's pretty definite all of you will have seen it, this should do it:

 

[FreezerBurn]

Bourne Identity.

 

[Brian Boru]

Bourne Identity.

Yes sir, that is the identity

 

[FreezerBurn]

 

[Frindis]

Love that movie! It is The Lawnmower Man from 1992.

 

[Brian Boru]

The Lawnmower Man

And now y'all know what an Irishman looks like when fried.

My guess is Valley of the Dolls.
ETA: Hang on—it's been a book, a movie, a TV show and a song… but never a game. C'mon EA, an existing franchise waiting to be milked—someone needs to be fired!

ETA2: Hang on, we're in the movie thread, not the game one—you just left the game one, idiot!

 

[Zloth]

Bourne Identity.

I keep meaning to watch that...

 

[Brian Boru]

I keep meaning to watch that...

I read all the Bourne books—and other Ludlum's—so I enjoyed the movies, but Matt Damon just doesn't work for me as a badass action hero. Same with Invictus, where he was supposed to be a rugby World Cup winning captain—just not convincing. But I like him in other roles.

[Kaamos_Llama]

Bad Santa ?

 

[Frindis]

Sorry guys, not quite there. Perhaps this one:

"Chestnuts roasting on an open fire!"

 

[Frindis]

Throwing in an extra clue: In the first picture I posted, there are a lot of dolls both outside and inside boxes. If you look closer at the picture while holding the CTRL key and scroll up/down in Blade Runner style, you might be able to see something "hidden".

 

[Brian Boru]

Heathers?

Altho I've seen that a couple of times and don't recall a doll house—but then, I suppose I wouldn't.

First runner-up: The Santa Clause w Tim Allen

 

[Frindis]

Heathers? No, and while the movie got some spirit in it, It is definitely not Saint Nick. I just googled Christian Slater (since you mentioned Heathers) and it seems there might be another Young Guns movie!

As for the absolute final hint, which also includes dolls:

 

[Brian Boru]

Heathers? No

Ah, I took your earlier advice and magnified—all I found was Baby Heather

another Young Guns movie!

Lou Diamond Phillips is still going too, I like him—and Christian, of course.

 

[Frindis]

The answer was: Child's Play (1988). Open for grabs

Having a bad hair day:

 

[Zloth]

That reminds me of The Stuff, but it's the wrong color.

 

[Frindis]

Last few hints: The movie was made a few years later than The Stuff. Both are from the '80s. Kevin Dillon plays one of the main roles, the same guy from the Platoon movie where he starred as "Bunny". Here is a fun quote from the movie: Meg Penny: "The front door is locked". Brian Flagg: [picks up a brick] "That's okay, I got a key." Last hint: The stuntman who played a wounded soldier in the movie goes by the name of Noble Craig. He is actually a Vietnam war veteran who lost both legs, an arm, and most of the sight in his right eye. Talk about turning things around!

 

[Frindis]

It was: The Blob [1988]

 

[Zloth]

They remade it!? I remember watching the 50's version on TV as a kid. I still remember the song!

Here's an easy one. Great film.

I used to watch films by great directors because again they are works of art, but I also enjoyed the Bourne series.
Maybe they remind me of gaming, the protagonist starts off clueless but when required to, switches to combat/spy specialist on a mission.

Here's the ending.

 

[Brian Boru]

Did they make a movie of Nevil Shute's great novel On The Beach? Would prob be an ending like that.
