Movie Quiz 28

[caffeinated]

Happy Friday everybody! Time to get quizzified!!

There's lots of familiar faces this week, but maybe a few not-so-familiar movies.

Anyway, take a look at the screenshots, and see which movies you can identify.

Good luck!

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

These were all easy for me Nice find on 8, though it's just a bit part for Mr CSI Miami. I think he gets the classic line later: "We're not hunting him. He's hunting us." 2 is not known as well as it should be, though it is a seriously flawed film. Always enjoy seeing 6 and 7.

Could identify all but 2 and 5...not bad for someone that doesn't watch tv or movies alot ....lol

2 is not known as well as it should be, though it is a seriously flawed film.

Agreed on both counts. Despite its flaws though, it's a fun ride... and it's a long-time, semi-obscure favorite of mine. But, there have definitely been better movies made about the exploits of those two characters.

What odd casting, too. Always thought Harry Dean Stanton would have been best to play the guy on the right. The more recently cast actor always seemed too short for the role, though he did a great job. The guy on the left got perfectly cast in the more recent film

Thanks caff.

Hints (I had to fight the forum censor a bit ):

1. Mickey and Mallory know the difference between right and wrong; they just don't give a damn.
   
2. I'll give you a quote from the Johnny Depp movie and maybe you can figure out this Bill Murray movie:
   We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of co-----, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.
   
   ♫ Oh, give me a home ....♫
3. As with all Coen brothers movies, there are many allusions in the film. Here many of the allusions are Biblical. Larry is a Job-like figure, a good man to whom many bad things happen with no explanation. When he is on his roof, he sees over his neighbor's fence and looks at his neighbor's beautiful wife naked in her yard, just as King David saw Bathsheba. His son Danny's looking at the oncoming tornado recalls God speaking to Job from out of the whirlwind, saying He will not explain why these bad things have happened to him.
   
4. Quote: Give my regards to King Tut, a--hole. There was a tv show based on this movie. And a couple of tv series that spun off from that tv show.
   
5. Steve Carell. Shoe phone. I'm gonna guess you've all figured this one out already.
   
6. This is the "Frankenstein" movie I alluded to earlier. The future as imagined in a low budget 1975 Roger Corman film. There was an arcade game inspired by this movie, rendered in glorious pong-style graphics, that got parents all upset over its scoring system.
   
7. [for demonstration, Mr. Kinney points a pistol at ED-209]
   ED-209: [menacingly] Please put down your weapon. You have 20 seconds to comply.
   "Richard" Jones: I think you better do as he says, Mr. Kinney.
   [Mr. Kinney drops the pistol on the floor. ED-209 advances, growling]
   ED-209: You now have 15 seconds to comply.
   [Mr. Kinney turns to "Richard" Jones, who looks nervous]
   ED-209: You are in direct violation of Penal Code 1.13, Section 9.
   [entire room of people in full panic trying to stay out of the line of fire, especially Mr. Kinney]
   ED-209: You have 5 seconds to comply.
   Kinney: Help me!
   ED-209: Four... three... two... one... I am now authorized to use physical force!
   
8. I could have killed 'em all, I could kill you. In town you're the law, out here it's me. Don't push it. Don't push it or I'll give you a war you won't believe. Let it go. Let it go.
