This one has been bugging me and I hope to God you can help me. All I have to go on is a line of dialogue, I don't even know the rest of the conversation, but you can guess at its context. The line is: "Do you mean 'Am I a drug dealer?' ...No, I am not a drug dealer." It's spoken slowly in a kind of typical nerd voice. Possibly. There's a good chance this isn't a movie, there's an equal chance that it exists only in my imagination.

I'm sure this one is obvious, but this scene popped into my head today and I cannot for the life of me place it: Protagonist(s) are driving, do something to anger a student driver and her instructor. The instructor tells her to roll down her window, stick her arm out, and flip Protagonist(s) the bird.

I saw a movie a very long time ago, I'm 20 and I think I saw it around when i was 8 or 9, but I could be wrong. I don't remember very much about it, but what I do remember is this: -The main character is a teenage girl--i think she's a princess -It's set in a sort of medieval time -Her fiance the prince gets kidnapped by some evil witch -There's a scene about trees blossoming or something like that -She's climbing a mountain or hill and she's freezing cold, starving and has no shoes -She reaches a village or camp and they give her magic shoes (I don't remember what they do) and magic scissors (If you have a small piece of fabric and you cut it with the scissors it makes more cloth rather than actually cutting it, so she can make extravagant clothes in minutes) and something that creates food in seconds. -She's trying to get her boyfriend back but he's been hypnotized or is under some spell by the evil witch who wants to marry him -Either the witch doesn't know who she is or she's in some sort of disguise I can't remember -She decides to get the witch to hire her to plan the wedding, to make the clothes and make the food for the banquet -At the banquet every single evil villain and criminal is invited -At the end she poisons everyone at the entire banquet and gets her fiance back I started remembering more things as I was typing. So does anyone know what movie this is?

I don't remember very much about it, but what I do remember is this: From the imagination of Jim Henson comes this live-action fantasy set in the enchanted world of Summerland. When the new king, Valemon (Tobias Hoesl), refuses to wed a wicked witch, she puts a curse upon him, turning him into a giant polar bear. Exiled in the iciness of Winterland, Valemon meets a lovely princess (Maria Bonnevie) who -- unbeknownst to the sovereign -- is his only hope for breaking the spell.

Have two First one I think was a made for TV movie about a school reunion. I saw it mid to late '90s and all I can really remember is there is some plot device about the 'nerd' trying to flush a urinal with his foot and stepping in the urinal and then later successfully doing it. There may have been a sub-plot about a woman convincing this guy he got her pregnant and gets him to kidnap someone else's baby. Don't think it was very good but I kinda want to know what happened. Other one isn't a movie but since I couldn't find a "What Show was This" thread in TV IV I guess I'll ask here. Does anyone know what cartoon featured people with power based on their morality, I seem to remember the good prince had good magic, the bad guy could raise the dead or something involving skeletons and the prince's brother who had kinda helped cause the whole war could travel through shadows.

This is a movie I saw a long time ago and barely remember anything about, but it's been driving me crazy for years. I saw it sometime before I was 13, so it can't be any newer than 1997. When I did see it it was on VHS, so it must be older than that. I was young enough that I didn't really pay attention to actors, so I really can't remember if anybody famous was in it or not. I know this is vague, but if anyone can help I would be eternally grateful! It migh have been a made for tv movie, as it was a homemade VHS. I don't remember a lot of gore, but there was plenty of violence and probably plenty of cursing. No nudity and no female main characters. My step dad called it "One man killing hunters", but that's not it at all. I've tried dozens of combinations of "hunter/hunting" on imdb in keyword search and plot search, but no dice. Here are some of the bits and pieces I remember about it. *Group of guys go to a private parcel of land that gets rented out especially for hunters. Each group has their own "zone' that they are supposed to stay in. It might have been an island, I remember they had to take a helicopter to get there. *While waiting for said helicopter, the main character hears what sounds like an urban legend about a crazy old man that lives on the (possible) island. The legend says that the man went insane after his son was accidently shot in a hunting accident. *Group gets shot at while crossing a big, white bridge. *member of hunting party goes missing. Friend split up to go looking for him. *They stumble across another hunting party that also had some of the people go missing. New group is distrustful of old group and assume that they are to blame for their missing friend. *someone gets hung up in a tree. They may or may not have had their throat slit. *At one point two of the people are hiding in a cave. *Main character finds a different cave in which the Crazy Old Man was hiding out and had their friend locked up in a cage. *Fire broke out and main character and maybe a couple of people escaped in the helicopter The part I remember most is at the very end of the movie the Main Character was holding a party at his house with his wife and kids and hears something outside. He goes out to investigate and sees something hanging on his mailbox. When he goes to take a look at it he finds out that it was the ID badge that belonged to one of his friends that was killed, that was left on the Island.

I need help on two movies! Movie the first: It's probably from the 1970s or early 80s, and probably a bad made-for-TV horror movie. A passenger jet comes under attack or under the influence of some supernatual force or entity. The passengers discover (or guess) that the entity wants a child on board, or maybe they think it would respond to a sacrifice. But they don't give it a real child, instead (and this is the bit I remember most clearly) they get a doll and put the child's clothes on it, and even go so far as to stick nail clippings from the child onto to the doll's fingers, and possibly their hair too. Movie the second: All I have is a scene that I came across on late-night TV, it's of a few people (maybe 2 guys and a woman) in a run-down house or log cabin, dancing to a Sonic Youth song (maybe "Kool Thing"). They just dance around for minutes, probably for the whole duration of the song. Edit: well poo poo, who'd have thunk a Sonic Youth song would have it's own wiki page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kool_Thing So, Movie the second: probably called "Simple Men".

The movie I am looking for was probably made in the 80's. I thought the name was "Sabotage" but imdb has nothing which fits the bill. What I remember: It starts with a special forces soldier of some kind in a jungle down in what seems like central America. There is a scene with a sniper shot through a plane. The sniper has to drill a hole to bolt the gun down because it's so HUGE. The love interest is a chick with dark hair.

I'm thinking of a film, some scientists clone a caveman or something. They observe him under controlled conditions, within this big science place in Antarctica or something. He somehow escapes, he thinks the helicopter is some kind of bird-god, I think he grabs onto it but falls from it and dies after having taken off.

I remember seeing commercials a while back for a movie that was set in the late 1800's (I think) about a train robbery. It was an action-y movie with some stars in it, probably from the late 90's or early 00's. I can't seem to remember anything else about the movie other than it was a western robbery movie that involved a train. It's not 3:10 to Yuma. Does anyone have any idea what movie I'm thinking of? EDIT: I think it was supposed to be a big budget blockbuster movie, but it kind of bombed at the box office.

One scene a rich guy shows up to his house and the cops search him for some reason. They find condoms in his wallet and his trophy wife/girlfriend gets pissed and slaps him.

It's movie that I saw maybe 10 years ago and I think it was a comedy. They mention in it how antagonists are usually shown to be a bad/mean guy by being mean to kids, old people, or dogs (or some other similar set of three). Later in the movie, the antagonist does something mean to the first two and then when he is about to walk away, he adds in something like "oh, and your dog is ugly", so that he covers all three. This may have happened backstage of a concert or political rally/speech. Thanks

I saw an animated movie on television a long time ago (~1991/2) where a kid goes to this mystical, Olympus-esque kingdom and is given a sword with a phrase to activate its powers or something. At some sidekick's request he takes a key and opens a gate that releases some ancient evil that had been locked up. I never knew its title and never saw the entire picture, but it has seriously bugged me at times, like now. Any ideas what it could be?

Cobbled together from subtitles: Costner: Whatever you think of me, you should know he hates old people, children, dogs... Costner: It's a known fact, if a camera's not on him he treats old people and kids like dirt. Guy: And dogs. Old people: Excuse me, Mr. Simms. Would you give our grandson an autograph? Please, Mr. Simms? Johnson: Can you people not see that I'm busy? I'm working. This is my office. Do I come to your office and ask for an autograph? I don't think so. Jesus. What an ugly dog.

This has bothered me for years, and although sometimes I've bumped into people who seem to remember something similar I've never been able to get an answer to it. It was an animated film that had come out (in English, at least) at least by 1990, perhaps a little bit later but I think that's unlikely. This was most likely an 80's film. The plot basically entailed a young girl being kidnapped by a count who turned out to be a vampire, or otherwise some kind of evil supernatural thing. There are really only two images I can somewhat vividly remember, one being the kidnap scene occurring in a rose bush, garden, or forest of some kind (rose imagery being prevalent throughout, if I recall), and the mansion he takes her to having a lot of elegant staircases. The movie ends, or ends close to after her escape or attempt to escape. The Last Unicorn is the closest in artistic style that I can remember it looking like. It was very subdued, not particularly goofy and kind of dark (at least my young, 5-6 year old self interpreted it as such).
