Trying to remember the title of a 1970s crime/car-chase movie that ends with a train hitting the car. I believe it's something of a cult classic but I saw it one time in my life like 10 years ago on cable at 2AM and haven't seen it since. I think they were watching this very movie in a Tarrininto film, so it's probably somewhat known.

This is from a 70's-early 80's movie. I think a cop movie? This guy is talking to a lifeguard (or something) on the beach. They both have really 70's looking hair and sideburns. One of them looks like Jimmy Buffett in the 70's. Some snotty kid comes up and say something. The kid's name is Machine Gun and the life guard tells the guy "he probably got that nickname because he jacks off 1000 times per day". I am not having any luck looking that up on Google and don't want to press it any further lest I get labeled a sex offender. Gloot fucked around with this message at 03:36 on Apr 14, 2016 |

I've asked about this movie before, and no one had any idea, so I'm asking again: The scene I remember is some cop, maybe Brian Dennehey, pulls over a couple driving a classic car. The guy driving says he did all the work on it himself. Eventually, the cop makes the guy get some grease from the car (saying "I thought you kept this car cherry, boy?") and uses it to surprise sex the girlfriend. He tells the guy he can turn around, and if the gun is not pointed at him, they can go, but if it is, he will kill them both. The guy doesn't turn around (the gun is not pointed at him). The next day or something, the couple confronts the cop at some diner. This has been driving me nuts forever.

Ok a real long shot here if anyone can identify this one. This movie was probably the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. I watched it on Netflix in early to mid 2011 but I have no idea if it is on Netflix anymore. From what I can remember it was just a bunch of 20 somethings living in a smallish apartment whining about things for the entire movie. It had no discernible plot from what I remember (other than growing up/living on your own/trying to make it in life). I maybe remember a scene where they were just like lying on the floor or bed whining about nothing. The movie seemed to drag on forever. It was probably an independent movie and likely had a low rating on Netflix. It was probably made between 2005-2011 but I can't be 100% sure. Sorry for the poor description, if I think of anything else I'll add it later.

If you have a lot of patience: Netflix has a viewing history feature, though I don't know if it goes as far back as 2011 (mine has everything since I signed up in 2014). Go to My Account, then under My Profile there's a Viewing Activity button. As for the film itself, it sounds pretty mumblecore-y. Maybe take a glance at the (admittedly horribly formatted) list here? I think Drinking Buddies was on Netflix a while back, at least in the UK, but it was 2013.

I don't mean to be argumentative, but that SERIOUSLY sounds like a scene in Gray Lady Down. I'm a bit of a sub movie afficianado, so this is going to drive me just as nuts. Here's some snippets from it, beginning shows the 2 guys in the minisub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndp6DbawvBU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MmlAiyqJ7U (in this movie, the sub actually gets crushed under a underwater rockslide, but there is a scene where 2 guys argue who goes down in it) Just for the heck of it, here's Coffey's death in Abyss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkhBPF4yfkI No ice, but the window cracking does look like ice. Also, there's a sub implosion scene in "raise the titanic" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T-ZMDt_2IY This is going to make ME nuts becuase the "thats not condensation!" line totally rings a bell with me... nitrogen fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Apr 22, 2016 |

Dammit, now you're gonna have me scrabbling around to find Raise The Titanic this weekend... And The Golden Rendezvous, although now sub-related I don't think. Moldy old boat movies, jeez. May as well make it a triple feature with The Poseidon Adventure (original), which I also haven't seen in like 25-30 years.

A friend and I saw a movie in a Blockbuster years ago that had a lovely CGI George Burns like with angel wings on a cloud. The tagline was something like "GEORGE BURNS IN HIS FIRST MOVIE SINCE HIS DEATH!" or something equally disrespectful. I'm almost positive Joan Rivers was on the box as well. I know this wasn't some weird fever dream because both me and my friend remember it, but I can't find what the hell it was by googling or anything. I've googled a bunch and looked at Joan Rivers IMDB for clews but I've come up empty handed. Please help me close this chapter of my life. And before you say it I really don't think it was that weird lovely "Angels with Angles" movie, although the fact that that movie exists is insane as well.

Was there a movie about Vincent Van Gogh set in the present day but where he's also a character? This might just be my imagination from around a decade ago but I remember a trailer where he's talking with someone who goes "the painting sold for thirty" and then he goes "thirty dollars, pretty good" and then they go "no, thirty million" and then Vince has this shocked look on his face.

I believe there was an episode of Doctor Who where they went back in time and told Van Gogh that after his lifetime he was considered a great artist whose work sold for millions. EDIT: Here. Of course it turns out it wasn't back in time it was forward and that line isn't there, but close enough. donquixotic fucked around with this message at 22:36 on Apr 26, 2016 |

I'm trying to find a modern-ish wuxia film. The only thing I remember clearly is some kind of a hermit stuck on the surface of a boulder fighting the main character. Vines were very prominent in the fight. The main character wins and then forces the hermit to teach him the techniques the hermit stole. Edit: Should have googled hermit boulder. It was Lord of the Wu Tang. Mugticket fucked around with this message at 13:14 on Apr 27, 2016 |

Two films my friend told me about a while back. First one is an old Japanese space movie. The effects were bad in that instead of the fire from the spaceship's rockets coming out straight, it came out and then went up. I honestly don't even care if it's the right movie, I just want to see a screenshot of something like that. Second film had a bunch of clones of the main character. The way you can tell clones from the real person is that clones don't have belly buttons. The guy kills all of his clones, but at the end of the movie he takes his shirt off and there's no belly button.

There's a lot of old Japanese scifi stuff that did really low budget effects like using fireworks as rocket thrusters or what have you. Could be a lot of things. The first ep of Ultraman starts off with something like that for example, right after the theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x7_DBzBetM&t=101s

What's that movie where a guy gets an electrode planted into his brain, to control some behavior? They test out various stimulations, and he gets hooked on a certain type, then goes berserk and kills some people. In the end they're at a cemetary. I'm thinking it's from the 70s.
