dougie_monty–Your #14 is “The Shaggy Dog.”
WonTon Sean–Your # 2 is “Kelly’s Heroes” and your #5 is “Wargames.”
Now, for some of mine:
NDP 1 - After surviving a gunfight and fire, a man tells a story of the events leading up to said incident that may not be true.
NDP 2 - An injured man spies on his neighbors, becomes suspicious about one of them, and almost gets killed for his curiosity.
NDP 3 - An alcoholic middle-aged lawyer takes a dog of a malpractice case and, despite obstacles thrown in his way by the opposing counsel, ends up triumphing over the deep-pocketed defendant.
Oh, and another one:
Family goes to amusement park.
Good job, Kelly’s Heroes is one of my favorite movies. I am surprised you got it this soon as it is not particularly famous or well known movie. At least in my neck of the woods.
I was looking for something else on #5.
NDP 2 - Rear Window.
- Man and imaginary fight people, blow up buildings.
Fight Club
NDP 1 - After surviving a gunfight and fire, a man tells a story of the events leading up to said incident that may not be true.

Family goes to amusement park.
National Lampoon’s Vacation
This type of game works better if you follow the “trivia rules” of
1.) Wait your turn
2.) The person who answers correctly gets to go next.
Otherwise, you’ve got what we’ve got here, a plethora of plots and very few answers, not to mention, answers that don’t contains quotes of the original plotline etc.
Kind of confusing.
Groundhog day.
Star Wars?
NDP 1 (“The Usual Suspects”) and NDP 2 (“Rear Window”) have been correctly guessed.
A new one:
NDP 4 - The owner of a record store obsesses over music trivia and struggles to commit to his girlfriend.
NDP 4 - “High Fidelity”
Right. Too Easy.
Correct, Jack Batty, 23skiddo and HPL.
Maybe I should think of some harder ones. My #5 remains unanswered.
Still pending:
- With the help of an eccentric friend, a man tries to encourage his parents to have sex, by such plans as staging his own attempted rape of his mother.
- With the help of a gourmet cook, a woman looks for a clothing manufacturer.
- A murderous elderly aristocrat pursues an obsession with the fiancee of the real estate agent negotiating his house purchase.
- During an international crisis, a man is torn between careers as a rescue worker and a journalist.
- An unwanted travelling companion sparks off life-changes that make a couple reassess their relationship.
- A con-man experiences the fury of a rural community after he impersonates the son of a rich local celebrity.
