Well #1 is easy, still figuring out the others, feel I should know some more of these!

 

[technovapir]

I got 3,4,5 7,8! That's a RECORD for me! Thanks Caff, for the midweek brain cruncher.

I got all of the me except number 4.

Thanks for the bonus issue Caff. After my disaster last week, you've made me feel much smarter.

Number 3 gets a regular viewing in our house.

Nice!

My pleasure.

Number 3 gets a regular viewing in our house.

Numbers 1, 3, and 4 are all outstanding movies. Really though, you can't go wrong with that trifecta of quality directors.

And #6, while perhaps not in the same class as the previously mentioned three, is also a very good movie, IMO.

Here is a man man who would not take it anymore.

I think I know what 8 is without having seen it.... 5 and 6 I just can't remember, but I think I have seen both. arg!

 

[technovapir]

I only got 1 and 7. Is that dspin in #7?

 

[caffeinated]

Answer time...

1. Taxi Driver (Directed by Martin Scorsese.)
2. Megamind
3. Inglourious Basterds (Directed by Quentin Tarantino.)
4. The Wrestler (Directed by Darren Aronofsky.)
5. Help!
6. The Fighter
7. True Lies (Directed by James Cameron.)
8. Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Thanks for playing!

 

[evilfrog]

Never even heard of Megamind. I have seen Help, but that was looooong ago. I should have recognized them though. Still haven't seen the Fighter. I did happen to watch Ward's final fight (against Arturo Gatti, I think). It was pretty brutal. It was on the SI cover soon after.

 

[Loveridden]

Ah, 6 and 8 did come to mind as those movies to me, but I wasn't sure

 

[technovapir]

Thanks Caff! I appreciate the director info too. Although I enjoy movies, I've never been very good at remembering directors names, so it's a good education for me

 

[Elphaba13]

Thanks Caff. I love these quizzes.

I just figured since several directors were already mentioned in the thread, I'd at least identify which movies those directors were responsible for.

 

[pinklilpixie4]

Ahh I missed it and I knew more than half of em this time! Awesome movies!
