OK, so TCM occasionally shows really, REALLY old stuff that makes you wonder where the gently caress they even got the film. Anyway, a while back my roommates and I caught this: -Black and white -Guessing 1920s or 30s -The main characters were all talking dogs, I think poodles, that were trained to walk on their hind legs. Thing is, they didn't do it so well, so it's edited to almost a seizure-inducing point. -The, um, plot had something to do with the white dogs in the jungle, and the female dog was kidnapped by a bunch of black dogs that who all talked in a horribly racist sambo-esqe accent -There were some other animals in there, I think, but the dogs were the only anthropomorphic characters I don't know why the hell I didn't check the TV Guide channel A stretch, but thought someone might know.

Those are probably the "Dogville" comedy shorts, by MGM. Here's one about prison, here's one about attempted rape, and I believe this is the one you saw, "Trader Hound". Also, what the gently caress?

A few years ago I saw an independent film about a group of boys who accidentally shoot someone in the neck and spend an entire night trying to get rid of his body. It was set in a neighborhood in New York City (I think it might have been in Brooklyn), and I'm pretty sure the movie was named after that neighborhood. No amount of googling has led me to my answer. Can anyone help?

Camera is looking down at a guy with a mustache who is looking up, arms raised a bit and out to his side. There's a lot of winder blowing against him from the front, strobe lights are going off and he says, "I understand now! It was never about the money!" e: And I vaguely recall some cartoon commie propaganda film I liked from when I was like, 3 or 4. It's an artist who defeats the villain in a cathedral or something with his powers of painting/imagination and I think it ends off with him sitting under a tree. This ring any bells?

"Chicken pot pie, and I don't care......I brought my lunch today!" "Jimmy Crack Corn", but lyrics changed. It was from some TV movie from the 70's or 80's. The premise was a poor latchkey kid who ate out of dumpsters, and was sick of the school lunch, so he wrote his "Chicken Pot Pie" opus.

There was this film I saw long ago. I think it's Spanish, but I'm not sure. From what I recall it's about a bunch of guys who decide to move in together. It ends with one of them being poisoned by his ex-wife/girlfriend/whatever. The final scene (and main reason I remember this film at all) is one of the most moving scenes I have ever seen. The remaining guys are in a restaurant. A waitress notices that one of the seats is empty and asks if she should remove it. The guys tell her their friend is sitting there and then have a toast and a ghostly figure of their dead friend joins in.

Saw this almost a decade ago on TV. It's a horror movie. All I can say is that it stars a guy, and they can identify the people that have been taken over by a band aid or something to that extent on the back of their neck.

It either came out within the last year or is in the post production. It's a western involving some sort of priest and has various elements of rock and roll and appeared extremely stylized. That's all I got really.

This has been bugging me all morning. There's a scene in a movie (might have been a tv show) where either high government official (president?) or someone high in a corporate role is in an office building they're not usually at. They drain the coffee pot, and get chewed out by some secretary or something for not refilling it.

Within the past twelve to eighteen months I saw a preview on a dvd for a comedy horror movie about two friends holed up inside a house while the end of the world happens outside. I could've sworn Seth Rogen was one of the guys but going over his page on imdb turns up nothing.

I posted this in the other version of this thread last week, but it's really destroying my soul trying to figure this out so I'll try again. I'm pretty sure I saw this on the Sci-Fi channel, and it would have been the late 90s. I don't remember the plot, and I tuned in like halfway through. All I remember was that it was a horror movie, and if I remember correctly (this is hazy) one or more of the characters' arms could detach (and possibly attack people?). At the end of the movie, one or more of the characters ends up going into some weird acid bath/gene splicing machine combo and is fused with another person or something like that (a la "The Fly"). I remember most of it being pretty gory. I remember the TV Guide channel or whatever it was called back then listed it, but all I remember is that (I think) it was called something like "Slivers" or "Sliver," but I've never been able to find it looking through IMDB. And no, it is definitely not the Sharon Stone movie, "Sliver," nor is it Cronenberg's "Shivers." I may not have even seen the right name on the channel. The other thread suggested "Splinter," but that came out last year so is obviously not it. This definitely appeared to be from the 80s.

I saw this movie years ago and I can never remember the name. With my stupidity it's probably something famous and I just forgot the name. Aliens invade a small town in the US and only a kid realizes this. Eventually it is found out that the only thing that can kill these aliens is copper. The US military boards one of the ships and blows up the alien king who looks like that big floating one eyed monster from Doom. What movie is this!!!!????
