Jonny Angel posted:So there's a movie I recall hearing talked about on these forums. Someone was mentioning, maybe in the Movie Posters thread or something similar, that [Movie] and Bangkok Dangerous seemed like they had their marketing campaigns switched. The marketing for Bangkok Dangerous made it seem like a quiet, somber, contemplative piece about being a hitman, while the marketing for [Movie] made it seem like more of a mindless fun time, but the actual movies ended up being the opposite. There's The American, but they're a bit far apart date wise.

Lamanda posted:There was a movie I caught a bit of that aired on the British SKY-channel in the mid/late eighties. It might have been a TV-series or miniseries, but what I remember was two or maybe three kids in their early teens in a boat in a swamp. They got attacked by some creatures that looked like muddy hay bales. I think it was in English but it didn't quite have a British or US feel about it, maybe Australian or South African. Any ideas of what this might be? Rawhead Rex?

MotU posted:I am trying to remember the name of what I believe is an independent movie. I don't remember much about the movie, and what I do remember is vague. The movie was about some dust bowl-esque town. There was a mysterious child that I think was supposed to represent an angel. There was a scene involving said child with a chandelier that was shot very nicely but that is all I can really remember about it. There was another plot int he film about a duo of men trying to buy up the property of the town. The entire imagery of the film was stark white. I also think it reportedly had a very low budget. Northfork?

Violen posted:This is an ancient one, and the memory swells up interest every couple of years. I'd have to assume it was around '95 or '96 at the latest, since I was a pretty young kid at the time. Definitely a VHS rental. The only reason it sticks out in my head so readily is it's a movie my mother picked out because it had a pretty innocuously colorful cover, but it turned out to be this depressing trek so she eventually turned it off. I never did end up seeing all of it. Quite honestly the solitary memory I have of the movie is it had an extended scene about a mother animal losing her eggs. I can't remember if it was to predation or they just didn't hatch. I don't remember whether it concerns kids in its primary roles or animals of some nature, although the movie definitely has plenty of talking animals (like this narrows down 90s children's animation). I've seen the usual suspects for traumatizing children, like Watership Down. This just escapes me since I recall so very, very little of it. I can't even remember if it was a musical or not.

b0nes posted:This is a kung fu movie: I really don't remember too many details of the plot because I was tossing my cookies that night. An old man who used to know kung fu when he was younger somehow remembered it. I think he also recruited some of his old senior citizen buddies who he also fought with and they get attacked by some young guys. That might be the plot. I only saw the last 30 minutes. It is a foreign film, not in English. Also it was a comedy I think. Sounds like Kung Fu Hustle

Matlock posted:I was walking through a room today when a scene came on that had a guy that looked like Jason Mewes driving a dark red Mini Cooper via remote control (in what looked like a painted Xbox 360 controller!) through a mall while techno music blared. The Mini Cooper crashed through a wall into a room that had another, and he drove the second one out while the suitcase full of money in the first was thrown through a chute into a dump truck outside. I think that's Masterminds, or something similar to it. Some 90s teen hijinks movie

DNS posted:I saw a scene from a movie and it's killing me trying to remember what it was. It's a 90s comedy. The scene is outdoors, I think around some school buses, and an attractive blonde woman (possibly a school teacher) screams at a couple of middle school aged boys and tells them off in an obscene fashion. I keep thinking it's from a Sandler movie but I think it might just be a Sandler-type movie. I thought I originally saw it in one of those youtube supercut vids but I watched a bunch and didn't see it. Can anyone help me out? Some of the details are off but is it Tommy Boy?

You Are A Elf posted:Yeah, it seems like a fairly common trope. A poor nobody gets poo poo on by some some rich snob, the poor nobody climbs the social ladder, becomes rich and returns to tell the rich snob to suck it. It could also be the "poor nobody" is actually an incredibly wealthy person who doesn't like flaunting their cash and gets mistaken for an actual poor nobody in average clothing. There's definitely a wad of cash in the Always Sunny episode

Sheep-Goats posted:1) There's some movie I thinking of where a guy who has previously lived with apes or something has some travails and at the end goes back to live with the apes. There's a scene at the end with a voiceover (I think) where he's sitting in the rain just letting it run over his face like he's ignorant to it (a skill or perspective or something they he picked up from the apes) and the scene is trying to demonstrate that he belongs in this kind of situation. Maybe it's Sean Connery? You are close. It's Hopkins

I had a random memory pop into my head. Some kind of 70s road movie (something like Every Which Way but Loose) and the main character has what he insists is a dingo. People keep trying to tell him it's not but he says it is because dingoes don't bark. Sure enough near the end it barks at something.

Detective Thompson posted:I'm trying to remember where a certain scene comes from. I know I've seen the movie several times, but can't recall it. I would have seen it probably in the early to mid 90s. The part I'm thinking of has a group gathered around a table, either a family or a couple and some of their friends. There's a turkey on the table, and one of them goes to carve it, but as soon as they start to cut it, the turkey splits in half. It was overcooked or something, and is super dry inside. I seem to recall the meat inside looking kinda of like a spiderweb as the turkey split apart. That is Christmas Vacation and shame on you for not watching it every year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ihEZMMOYmQ
