Need hints for 12,14,19,20 and 25
Thanks.
Is it only me, or is this one really much easier than the previous one? Only 3 are missing, though I’m way too far from a movie-nerd.
Also, this one seems to have a lot of science fiction.
A good sequel, all in all.
Erpan,
12: a rarity: a Canadian movie (if i’m not mistaken…). Absurd, futuristic, thrillerlike, suspension all thru… A-maze-ing.
19: Bone ->Spaceship
20: Is it really them aliens calling for a trip thru time and space?
25: a sci-fi classic from the seventies. NOT about an athlete.
He, red
if it’s so easy you can probbably give me a hint for 8 and 28 ;)
HerrieM,
8 is missing here, to :(((
28 is about a very frequently flying woman. Let that be enought for a first hint :)
Won’t belive it, but just hit on #8! I was trying hard to recall filmtitles with this guy as star, and just realized there was anotherone I haven’t thought of so far. Tried it, and bingo :))))
So: the picture is totally uncharacteristic of the film, that is neither about minerology nor music, as the title would suggest…
@ Red: Oh yes now i recognized the guy in #8. And than its really easy i remember the scene.
@erpan:
#14 its not about that little guy with the phone, but they could be relatives.
I need help at 12,17,20,23,25,27,28,29
my Problem is that i cant see enough details on the Pictures and i cant zoom in to see more.
Ok i look at 12 again and i got it. really great movie!
Hint: look out for the number of your Room!
So i just get 26 of 30.
But i still need good hints at 23,25,29
just got 28 when i finally recognized the actor ;-)
Please help what the hell is number 12 it’s the only we need
Its ok got it now thanks anyway
you all mention that you recognize actors from movie 8 and 28, but i don’t. and the hints only make me out of my sleep :(
8. actor is a relative to a man behind an apocalyptic vision with helicopters.
28. that man don’t usually have moustache. Girl’s father is an easy rider
Red red red, you are getting fiendishly good with your hints - i especially liked the one for #8. congrats, mate! :D
To the moderator: 29 excepts strange answers.
Hello,
I just can’t find the solution for number 21 and mine brain doesn’t wanna help me anymore…..
Argea,
#21: Can you imagine Danny playing Napoleon? At least for a Billboard?
Hi again its me, some of you wrote that you got all of the titles, but no one give me a hint for 23,25 and 29.
Please help me!
Thanks, Hightower
Hightower201,
#29 is about a boy who isn’t seeing dead people
Higtower201,
#23 is not, as the picture, black. And white.
anyone have hints for 1, 10, 12, 13, 17, 21,23,28 and 30?
Hintz:
Hightower:
23: This time he doesn’t dance, and cant work in the chocolate factory. Plus, he§’s the wrong color…
25: An old classic, (dark) futuristic, and not really about guy’s sprint…
29: Not natural - and not dumb.
Boba fett:
1: About a Spaniard.
10: Not about a chemist, as the title may suggest…
12: Definitely dark. Think of Mr. Rubik…
13: Lots of films about simple rural guys acting asshole in big cities. High time it was for the opposite…
17: One word: Gibson
21: If you don’t know this one, call someone who’s not that tall.
23: i tell you this if you tally me banana.
28: The girl is not alive for much more… A good story about illegal money, swapped shopping bags, bailing agents…
Hints for everyone: if you don’t recognize these, then you sure haven’t seen them:
3, 5, 6, 12, 15, 17, 19, 20, 25, 26.
They contain so evident and characteristic hints that anyone who’s seen them must at once realize (with the possible addition of any of the ones i dont know: 14 & 30).
These:
2, 4, 7, 13, 18, 21, 24, 27, 29
make it quite easy for anyone who’s seen them to hit. They contain hints (the combination of the actors, sceenes, etc…) that make task easy.
These:
1, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16, 22, 23, 28
are the real test I think. All films that are well known, so probably most of the people know at least the tittles, and has even seen them. Still, the still is not very helpful. But that’s what maakes it a challenge, right? :)))
Oops, i put 13 in two categories… I guess it should go to #3…
Hints for 11 and 25 are really appreciated.
11: the more serious “patch Adams” with sleeping disorders
25: this SF movie is for people under the age of 30
…hey wake up! Answer to picture nr.15 is wrong. The right answer is the sequell, but you have to write in original to get it right,..but it’s wrong. Get it!
wow, your hint for 11 also points directly at another movie. interesting. heh, unless i spelled it wrong. by the way kudos on the site, finally some quizes that activate your mind. i had abandoned online quizes after being told “what kind of smoothy” i was, and “what my vibe” was…. thanks
thanks, anticodrone!
anticodrone,
thank you for the kind comment - this is exactly what we are aiming at. If you like the quizzes, help us spread the news, we are positive there are more people around with a similar mindset. :)
Hey guys,
nice to see another quiz up :) Must say was a bit easy though, the corporate ABC kept me guessing for a couple of days, got through this one within an hour, but good fun nevertheless…
StoEpz0r, check back often - the sequel to the Corporate ABC is coming soon :)
Ok, rocked everything else but 19… i think i know it but can’t get it right and 30… i’ve tried every snowy movie i can think of.
btw, Martin is right: #15 is not accurate. It has to be the sequal in the picture since the “guy on the left” wasn’t in the original and the “main guy” is slightly older in this pic.
So yeah, i love the site but could use help on 19 and 30.
noprotein:
- you and martin are right about No.15, we will correct it. And special thanks, this time to you alone, for telling us so politely instead of telling us off :)
- the hints:
19. Does the name Arthur ring a bell?
30. In this movie, they save the life of some worms when contructing a building.
Sorry guys, No.15 corrected. Thanks for the feedback!
12 and 30 have my stopped. I appreciate a good cryptic clue but I need more please.
hey i need help on #s 1,12,16,19,25,28,29, and 30. i think i have seen 25 but cant remember the name for the life of me. any help would be appreciated!
1: big bodget movie about the roman empire
12: the hint is given befor but it is a good hint. “The rubiks ****” The last 4 letter word is the answer.
16: same director of the film “four rooms”
28:See hint for #16
30: a movie from the director Annaud that is place in an asian country
very helpful thanks. i have all but 19 and 25. my dad watches 25 every once and a while i think but i dont pay attention!
19: a movie from the year 1968 and from 33 years later. But it is still one movie (think about a year in the title)
25: Didn’t know the movie myself, but it is from a director called Michael Anderson.
Sorry, guys, for the mistake in #15. One of the movie-pages tricked me, because it must have placed this pic in the wrong place. I failed to doublecheck it. The so characteristic look of the main guy made me so sure it didn’t even cross my mind that it is not that film. Sorry.
GroundZer0, It is forgiven. (not that i noticed it myself)
Neither have I :)))))
dear operators,
For the answer of #29. If I put in the answer of an old movie from tom cruise I get the right answer for the question altough that’s a totaly different movie!….maby you cab change this?
By the way I really liked the quiz.
Yes, it’s a totally different movie. Must be a mistake, I presume…
it is not actually a mistake, since the title of the old Tom Cruise film includes the correct solution (in the character string) for 29.
Try Angelina Jolie’s aka Lara Croft’s movie as a solution. Same thing will happen.
Same characters. Probably hard to fix.
I need help on numbers 7, 20 and 27, please.
Interestingly enough, the clue “Canadian” already helped me with no 12. Though I do not remember that screenshot and the actors are not that wellknown. Nevertheless a nice movie, especially the “egg slicer scene” in the beginning.
This quiz is harder than the first movie stills quiz. At least I think so.
Karl,
7: Think of roses… and a falling apart family.
20: Very similar topic to 19. Trying to get in touch with THEM.
27: You must recognize that face. It’s the first of a series of 4 films - so far… - all good cop-movies. I guess you’re not “too old for this shit” :)
i need help with number 11, ive seen the movie but i cant remember the name, i know its about robin williams being a docter who moves to a new hospital that has all those patients that are like frozen and he gets them moving by playing music and throwing balls to them… any help will be greatly appreciated
Trevor, maybe it helps if you find out who the other leading actor is. He is a guy who is much more at home in mafia films, for instance… :)
I’m going crazy!
I am missing only one, and cant seem to figure it out.
So if anyone could hint me a bit about 3.
Trevor,
this is the very film. Think of a normal state of doing nothing, then suddenly switching to an active state - a “game we all do every day…
Lopolopo,
#3 is taking place in an imaginery world of a big, endless ocean. And nobody dances with lupi…
Any hints available for 22? Only one that keeps eluding me
fobgrvt,
#22 is like Armageddon - very much like it in fact…
It sucks that the answers aren’t given. What’s “fun” about finding an answer when people give you numerous hints and first letters and such.
Losers
Great quizzes guys! Unlike some people, I do enjoy it although I still miss 13,21,23 and 24!
OKAY guys..the only thing i m missin is 23… and the not blk/wht hint didn t help me…i know it s travolta..but still no idea
hi i need help on #s 2,3,8,13,15,17,20,24 and 26 pleeease give me some clues this is driving me crazy!!great quiz!
Good Service
I’ve finally got all… *puh*
@maurice:
23: This One was also the hardest for me. This film was released mid of the nineties in Europe only at video in nearly all counties. Only in France the film was shown under a similar title.
The 2nd leading actor is a very famous black musician.
#17
It’s a futuristic story about a walking Hard-Drive.
I heard Robin Williams new flick Man of the Year isn’t doing so well at the box office? It looks like a great movie though. I love the guy, ever since I first saw him on Mork and Mindy.
