I have to admit, Trek did a really good job of hiding that Doohan had only four fingers on his right hand. (He lost his right middle finger during D-Day.) There are only a few times it's visible between the original series and the movies.

That’ll teach him to give armed Nazis the finger.

Was there a movie that had a 3D recreation of Salvador Dali's "The Sacrament of the Last Supper", or at least featured it or something like it at some point? It would have been made in likely the 1970s or maybe 1980s. I have faint memories of it being sci-fi/fantasy along the lines of a Kurt Vonnegut story, and associate it with the look of Soylent Green and Rollerball. I seem to recall the camera moving through the frame of one of the windows, but it might even have been just a slow zoom on a still image. It was possibly a TV movie, since I'm fairly sure I did not see it in a theater.

30 seconds into Lords of Acid's Sex Bomb there's an audio clip that I've felt like is from a movie but I've never been able to place. Song came out in 2000 so it'd be before that.

There was an animated movie I never saw as a child but had a trailer on some vhs or another. The only things I can remember is it was a fantasy and the hero (who I think was a young teen male) fought a shadow lord(?) in a dungeon and they were making a big deal out of a candle/torch going out. I know that's not a lot to go on. Animation style may have been that 80s mock Disney style.

Never saw it and always wanted to as a kid.

There's a movie from 1956 called Baby Doll, but I have no idea if that's where the clip is from. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048973/

Someone on my Facebook posted this as well, said they'd give the answer in a couple days and never did. I'm going to say this is just a random house that wasn't even in a movie and this is just people loving around.

I'm looking for a made for TV movie that aired in one of the Nordic countries in either the late 80s or early 90s. It was a sci-fi horror that involved a covert scientific experiment going wrong in an isolated section of forest. From what I've heard it had a surprisingly engaging premise, the sort ready made for a mid budget hollywood adaption. It's unfortunately stuck in a rights battle that will likely never end, though for a short while dvd copies were sold online. I've forgotten both it's name and the defunct movie board it was discussed on.

So I nagged my friend for the answer today, and saw that at some point he changed the question from the above to "What iconic 1980s film featured this house in an early scene?"

The answer is in fact E.T. and the house is in the background of the bus stop scene.

Open question: movies where Deepfake type tech is used to make it look like someone did some poo poo they didn't?

Ones I can think of are Running Man (opening fire in the chopper, pretending they were killed by Captain Freedom) and I want to say there was one movie in the 90s or early 2000s I'm trying to think of where an agency of some kind was faking footage of Wesley Snipes or a protagonist shooting people but I can't even remember if I'm imagining it

Maybe you're thinking of Enemy of the State with Will Smith? I can't remember that scene, but there's a conspiracy and a framing in it, so it seems probable. Also an infamous scene where security footage rotates around him to look at his face. That might have been a manufactured video? I have not watched it since 1998.

And it's not quite Deepfakes, but Wag the Dog would probably fit the bill.

Demolition Man? Except it was Arnie shooting protesters from da chopper I think. More editing than deepfake in that case though.

Co-starring Wesley Snipes so yeah, that's probaby what they were thinking of.

But :lol: at the fact that there were two movies released in '93 co-starring Wesley Snipes, where doctored footage was used to frame someone

It's not his face, it's a bag he's carrying. They have a computer use "shadows" to build up an image of the opposite side of the bag so they can tell if the mcguffin is in it. I'm pretty sure Tony Scott claims it was a real tech that the NSA had on the commentary too, which was probably a bit gullible of him.

As far fetched as that film is at times, I really like the conversation about how the spy satellite can only look straight down and maybe that mook will design a better one :v:

In Demolition Man I think Snipes just says Stallone killed the hostages and the cops take his word for it. Running Man literally predicted deep fakes, not for the chopper massacre but later when they paste Arnie's face on someone else's body to show him being killed by Captain Beefheart or whoever.

That was never not super weird how the only evidence that Stallone killed civilians in that movie was the testimony of a infamous mass murdering serial killer.

Yeah, send a maniac to catch a maniac. I don't think he had any bureaucratic support and the media called him Demolition Man. They likely didn't look too hard at the allegation given the lawlessness at the time.
