Five-word movie summary game !! SPOILERS !!

19: Taxi Driver
20: Jaws

Still waiting to hear if 18 is right

No, no, ** jjimm ** - don’t disqualify mojo! * Women on the Verge… * was a film TITLE, and the correct one, I might add, in response to my guess-the-title movie summary ( #17).

Kn(wracked with guilt for making ** mojo ** use 8 words)ckers

Oh, how right you are, Kn(pointing out the errors of my ways)ckers. I do apologise.

18 through 20 are all correct, NYR407. Sorry 'bout that. :slight_smile:

  1. You get to be him.
  2. Based on true story. Not.
  1. Being John Malcovich
  2. True Stories

21, yes.
22, dunno, maybe. Not the one I had in mind, though.

Hmm, three days and no answers to my last two (Seven was correct). Well, I didn’t think they were too obscure, but I’ll give 'em away:

  1. La Femme Nikita
  2. I would accept either The Wages of Fear or Sorcerer

So, let’s have some more:

  1. Kid plays undead dodge-ball.
  2. Can time travel prevent disease?
  1. The Blair Witch Project (or The Adventures of Baron Munchausen)
  2. Twelve Monkeys

RadioWave, neither was the one I had in mind, but I’ve seen the former and heard enough about the latter to know they both apply. Point awarded.

I was thinking of Fargo.

  1. Smart bomb outwits dumb bombers.
  2. Pot fantasy fuels paranoid kidnapping.
  1. Dark Star?

Correct-a-mundo!

Gosh, I’ve been ignoring this…

Baldwin got my #4 right with Miracle Mile.

Kn*ckers sort of got #6 with the half-guess of Ken Branagh’s Hamlet. It’s Hamlet’s first line, so you didn’t have to sit through too much to see it. :slight_smile:

Nobody got #5 (Closet Land) or #7 (War of the Worlds).

#26 is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

#23 sounds horribly familiar, but I can’t get it.

New ones:
#27 - Bill Murray sprays Richard Nixon

#28 - House in Seattle builds itself

Hacking, Halle Barry’s breasts.

If anyone still cares, #9 was Labyrinth.

28: Rose Red?

You are correct Sir! grin

Eeeexellent. A terrible film, I must say. But I’m glad that the evenings I wasted watching it were not all in vain.

I was going to try to think of more, but I’m too lazy at the moment.

Ooh, I spelled that even wronger than I’d intended to.

Haven’t seen it, but it’s not the one I had in mind.

Damn! Your description fits the bill, with the minor quibble that pot was one among many drugs they were using that fueled the paranoid kidnapping in Fear and Loathing.

If it isn’t that, I haven’t a clue.

A clue, you say? Sure:

26, part 2 (five more words):
Disgruntled coworkers improve office morale.
