Movie Quiz 24

[caffeinated]

Woohoo! It's quiz day!

Which also means the weekend is almost here! Nice!

There's some pretty iconic imagery in the screenshots this week, and I hope that doesn't make the quiz too easy. In any case, have a look below and see which movies you can identify.

Enjoy!

As usual, I'll post the answers Sunday morning.

[bobsyeruncle]

[Loveridden]

[FaniFox]

Woohoo! It's quiz day!

+1 for that! Yeah! The weekend is here!!!

Got all but number 3.

WooHoo....I know all but 7 this week. I just saw #8 a couple of weeks ago. Loved the movie itself, not so much the ending. It was just kind of blah. After I watched it I googled it and they had a more complex ending filmed but opted not to show it.

Two word clue for you: Bah Humbug.

Agree on 8. Something unsatisfying about it (particularly the ending).

I don't know 5.

The dialog in that scene in 6 is classic: Do you expect me to talk? No Mr. -----(spoiler!), I expect you to die!
Great song in that one too. I have a jazz version by Dave Douglas somewhere...

I haven't seen 1 since it came out (but I did read the book more recently). I should rent it...

 

[technovapir]

Thanks Caff! I actually know all but 5& 7 this week!

 

[bobsyeruncle]

Don't you recognize the visitors' jersey in the background?

#5 if you could identify the object being held up, that would help.

 

[MadHatter]

Hint for #5: Shermer, Illinois. But if you know that random bit of trivia, you'd most likely already know the movie I'd guess.

 

[Elphaba13]

I've got about 4.

 

[caffeinated]

Bumping and hinting...

#2: Val Kilmer does a pretty good job of portraying this member of the "27 Club" in this movie about his band.

Let's try jogging your memory with alternative screenshots for #5 and #7:

#5:

#7:

I hope this helps!

 

[Elphaba13]

Thanks! Now I know 5 of them!

 

[technovapir]

Thanks for the hints. I got 5 now LOL, still no clue about 7...I recognize that it's Hockey....but that is it!
It it an older flick? 70's ?

1. Robin Williams is a writer. And that's John Lithgow as "Roberta".
2. ♫ For the music is your special friend
   Dance on fire as it intends
   Music is your only friend
   Until the end ♫
3. It's Christmas, so this one should be pretty Sim-ple.
4. Mashed potato mountain?!
5. Remember Long Duk Dong?
6. This one's not actually a porn flick despite the ..... galore.
7. #1: Eddie Shore?
   #2: Pi-- on Eddie Shore.
   #3: Old-time hockey?
   #2: Pi-- on old-time hockey!
8. Ballet dancer and politician and the forces conspiring to keep them apart.

 

[bobsyeruncle]

Too obvious? Select hint below:
#7 is a minor-league hockey classic. (And those are the Hanson brothers lined up in Caff's last clue.)

<-- end select

Nice!

Yeah, I figured including those very recognizable characters in the alternate screenshot could be a big clue.

 

[technovapir]

Thanks Bobs. I had to resort to googling to figure out #7. I've never even heard of it!
