My Lovely Horse posted:I would have seen this on TV in the 80s. There's a chase scene with two people in a flat-nosed semi. When the bad guys catch up and things get hot, they either climb or drop down in a compartment under the cab. Seconds later they emerge from under the cab in a sleek flat sports car that's been hidden as part of the truck. Condorman? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40Sy_ramx24

doomrider7 posted:First one is a fairly standard teen comedy bit. One scene has the guy talking to his friend(whom is a girl and very obviously his true love) about how to confess to the girl he likes and uses a line about his favorite shade of blue on a crayon being the color of her eyes making it seem like he's talking about her. There's another scene later on where he's trying to get to the "Cool Kids Party" and runs into some gang bangers who coax him to draw graffiti and to have the honors of drawing the nipples to which they leave him to get caught by the crazed janitor of the school they tagged. Trojan War.

Breitbart Is Rightbart posted:I can't remember any of the details of the film I'm looking for except at one point on TV there's an an old black and white movie from the 50s playing about a giant radioactive bird swoops in and eats a soldier parachuting out of a plane. DeimosRising posted:The black and white film is The Giant Claw, the movie showing the footage is on the tip of my tongue... One of these: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050432/movieconnections Electric Dreams? TerrorVision? Those seems to be the only actual movies on the list.

ruddiger posted:I’m thinking of a movie where something (electrical?) happens in the main plot that causes a feedback of some sort. It cuts to two teen girls in their bedroom watching mtv (the mtv spaceman to be more specific) and the tv explodes because of the feedback, one of the girls (possibly an uncredited Sara Gilbert?) says “awesome!” after the tv explodes.

GreatGreen posted:The next movie/show/story seems like it was in black and white but it might have been in color. The idea was that something would happen to people that caused their eyes to become gigantic in their heads. Like their eyes would be as big as a baseballs. Killers from Space?

Davros1 posted:Want to say it was a Disney film, or at least shown on one of those "Wonderful World of Disney" programs. I think it was set in the early 1900s (but maybe not), and it was about a couple of kids who maybe live in/near a swamp, and they build a fake "Loch Ness" style monster that they paddle around in, possibly as a way to scam money by taking photos of the "monster" The Strange Monster of Strawberry Cove.

The_Doctor posted:Watching Soul has reminded me of an American 80s film. I think it’s got observers from the afterlife watching a guy on earth go through various trials and they’re doing VO commentary on how he’s doing. The two observer voices are a man and a woman. Switch has God voiced alternately by a man and a woman.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:This one is kind of reaching. There was, I believe in of the Zucker brothers spoofs I used to watch all the time as a kid, a scene where someone mentions a 'monarchan bagan disguise kit'(sp). The reference kind of slid over me since I was used to Looney Tunes name dropping celebrities I had no clue about. Recently I've gotten the line stuck in my head and I thought to look up what it was referencing but apparently phonetic spelling of 35 year old memories don't make great Google searches. Eddie Izzard did a bit about a Menachem Begin disguise kit: quote:I had all the badges. I had my Landing On The Moon badge. You know, advanced badges. My Nuclear Fusion badge. And my Menachem Begin Disguise Kit badge. Which was great.

King Vidiot posted:I saw a trailer for a movie on Twitter the other day, but I completely forgot the name of it. I thought it was called something with "games" in the title. It's a Japanese movie, it's like a cross between Battle Royale and Saw with set design that kind of looks like the movie Toys. A large group of debtors take part in a series of contests to pay off their debts, and they're all deadly versions of children's games like red light, green light. Squid Game, though it's a TV show and not a movie (and it's South Korean). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squid_Game Action Jacktion fucked around with this message at 21:13 on Sep 18, 2021 |

I remember a car, maybe a police car, being overturned and there beings a giant fingerprint on the car. Don't recall much else.

Gripweed posted:I was going to throw out a suggestion for the only other murderous hand movie I can think of but now I can't remember the title. Anthology film, one segment is about a doctor whose hand starts rebelling, he cuts it off, mayhem at the hospital ensues as everybody's hands start rebelling. The connecting feature is a respected actor in a black leather getup at a carnival or something playing a creepy guy That’s Quicksilver Highway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksilver_Highway

Carthag Tuek posted:By the by, what is that totally Lifetime movie with that brunette with the kinda worried eyes in which there's a scene where she leaves her son/daughter (abt 5 years old) in a playground somewhere and then the CPS comes to pick up the kid. It's like she's too poor or something and she has to do it and it's a total tear jerker when you're 10 years old (maybe still, probably). This post is from 2007 but the movie is God Bless the Child.
