Can someone help identify this movie? I remember a specific scene in which a man has a gun and he is being talked to and calmed down by people around him, who may or may not have been cops. Eventually, he lifts his hands up and surrenders. However, he is holding the gun in one hand and his pinky is caught in the trigger. At the last second when everyone is close to him, he lets the gun spin around on his finger so it is in position to fire at the man in front of him. After the shooting, he starts to laugh. Is this familiar to anyone because its been in my mind for the last 3 days and Im sure I didnt make it up. Thanks for any help.

There's a scene like this in Tombstone kind of. The head Cowboy dude comes out of an opium den high out of his mind and starts just randomly shooting poo poo and people all flee the streets. The town sheriff says it isn't town business it's county business, or maybe it was the other way around. So anyway the other law man goes out to settle poo poo down. The scene then plays out pretty much like you described, although instead of just laughing his head off the shooter laughs a little bit then gets all confused because he is completely baked. I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to because I'd like to think you would have remembered it was from the old west, but hey memories can be funny things.

I got a scene from a movie stuck in my head today. I figured that if anybody can figure it out, it'd be you guys. What I'm thinking about is some movie that probably came out in the late 90s to probably 2004 at the latest. The scene that I keep revisiting in my head is of a young lady (early 30s?) digging up her entire backyard to her house which is fenced in. The backyard isn't huge either. This is taking place because human bones have been found in the backyard. I remember an overhead crane shot of the backyard, and also pipelines from the house's plumbing being an obstacle in the backyard. Oh, and I think a dog found the first bone in the backyard. This was a major studio release as I remember seeing this scene in a theater. And for some reason I want to believe that the title of the film was either one or two words. Any ideas?

I've wondered about this one for a long time. I remember when I was much younger, watching some movie about this kid who got abducted by the government or some corporation or something because he had some kind of ESP or something, and he made a video game explode in one scene. Also a vague image of a cello case or something, but maybe that's a crossed wire in my head. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

This one's been driving me nuts. I've googled the hell out of keywords "heart in crystal/bottle" with variations on sultan, caliph, vizier, and whatnot, I've looked through everything wikipedia and imdb has on "Arabian" movies, and I can't find it. My childhood mind remembers this, obviously, as being an Arabian Knights style fantasy movie. There are two scenes that stick in my mind: Someone stabs the villain, who is some evil vizier/sultan/general king type, through the chest, and he stands back and holds his arms wide with the sword sticking through him in a "Ha, look, I've got a sword sticking through me and I seriously just do not give a poo poo. Hey everybody, check out my impalement!" sort of way. The second scene is near what I assume to be the end of the movie, wherein they find the dude's heart inside a crystal or a bottle or something, thus being why he can survive being stabbed through the chest. Someone throws the heart down into lava or fire or something of a similarly hostile-to-disembodied-hearts nature, and this causes the heartless villain to finally bite it. I dig Arabian fantasy, and I dig villains with disembodied hearts, so I've been trying to figure out this sucker forever because I want to see the full thing.

I'm sitting here watching GI Joe, and I cant for the life of me remember the movie that was based on GI Joe. The main character was Destro. It's set in the future (or something) where he cures a virus and through that rules the world. I dont think the movie ever came out and it may have just been viral. The movie had a latin name, IIRC. Any ideas? EDIT: The movie is Canzo Empyrean Teepkick Shakur fucked around with this message at 04:28 on Feb 12, 2010 |

Quick search for a friend. "That movie with the kid who is put into the foster care system and goes insane and winds up burning down his mom's house. I saw it on cable and never got the name of it but it was a pretty good movie."

Alright, this is going to be super vague but I'll try my best: there was a tape I used to get a lot from the library that was this short movie with puppets. It definitely wasn't directly Muppets-related, but I guess it could have been a Jim Henson thing. I think I remember that the main character was a dragon or dinosaur, but that might be totally wrong. I think the title had the main character's name in it. Pretty sure a lot of it took place in a forest and he might have been looking for something in it? I also think I remember there was a talking fountain or wall covered in vines or something. And at one point he might have been in a cabin. Any of this could be completely wrong but hopefully there's enough in there to give someone even a slight idea. e: Also I'm pretty sure there was singing. e2: If I had to guess this would be like late 80s, maybe early early 90s. e THREE: I keep thinking of Horton Hears a Who when I try to remember the name, so now I'm thinking its name might be similar to that.

Nah I watched Eureka's Castle all the time and this definitely wasn't it. It was special- or movie-length I'm pretty sure and, at the time at least, seemed maybe a little creepy? Not like Eureka's Castle.

Ok, this is all I can remember - something about it maybe taking place in the 50's, with giant ants in a movie (was it a 3d movie?) where there was a threat of bombing from maybe cuba, so there was a fallout shelter under the movie theater and a guy and girl wind up in the shelter and think everyone has died in the nuking so they start making out with the idea that they have to restart the human race, of course this hasn't happened after all?

I'm trying to find a movie in which an alien breaks free in a sort of area 51 complex in the desert. The alien moves through a sort of pupal stage and at the end breaks out of the building and the army is forced to nuke the entire area. It ends with the main characters dying in the explosion, the alien reaching the outside world before being wiped off the planet with a nuclear bomb and a shot of the desert with a single egg in the sand. It has to be some terrible B-movie, but I'd like to see it again. I don't remember when I saw but I'm guessing 6 years ago on television.

This is the worst clue but I have to give it a shot. I think it may be a horror movie but maybe not. The only thing I remember is someone whistling a very catchy song throughout the movie. Have fun!

When I was young I watched this horror movie and I can only remember the beginning of it. IIRC, a few teenage kids break into this old ladies house and rob her of her belongings and I think they killed her. I remember a spirit (maybe hers?) attacking them and killing them, and I really don't remember anything else, I think that was just the opening of the film. Sorry it is so vague.
