papasmurf Posted November 10, 2008 Author Report Posted November 10, 2008 Let's start off the week with a clue, as time is running out on this image. This film was a big hit, in the 60's, and the lead is played by one of the actors, that has already come up in a prior round!
papasmurf Posted November 10, 2008 Author Report Posted November 10, 2008 Eeeer OK, good candy, ..................
papasmurf Posted November 10, 2008 Author Report Posted November 10, 2008 Great film, even the sequel was decent on that one, but it is a.........STRIKE!
papasmurf Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 OK, today's the last day for this image, if not guessed by 5pm EST, counts as a "stumper"! Last clue for this round, the film centers around the lead character, being chased by all sorts of secret agencies, trying to extract what he knows about an important person!
Mike Delano Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 The President's Analyst (with James Coburn)

dmorrissette Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Congrats Mike D!!! Did my best but of the 21 films, I have only even heard of about 8 of them so not bad getting to five. Well deserved! Dave M
Mike Delano Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 OK, guys, what I'm thinking of is this: The normal rules apply - 3 strikes and you're out Also, to speed up the game a little bit, I'm thinking of a 3 day limit on images - that allows us to get a minimum of 2 new movies per week If noone guesses correctly, that counts as a point for us Any objections? It will probably be later in the afternoon / early eveningbefore an image goes up.
papasmurf Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 I Fully Agree! I wanted to implement the 3 day image limit, in the next round, or the game tends to drag....I second that motion!

Mike Delano Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 OK, here is the first film is our next round. The only clues for today are one, that this movie was made with an astoundingly small budget and two, watching this movie will give you a headache trying to wrap your mind around the topic. Round Ends at 7:00PM EST this coming Friday
papasmurf Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Posted November 12, 2008 JEEZ DUDE, YOU STUMPED THEM RIGHT OFF THE BAT!!
Mike Delano Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Image is being reposted so people dont have to go back through olde pages to see the capture again. OK, here is the first film is our next round. The only clues for today are one, that this movie was made with an astoundingly small budget and two, watching this movie will give you a headache trying to wrap your mind around the topic. Round Ends at 7:00PM EST this coming Friday
Mike Delano Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 OK everybody, we need guesses before another clue will be revealed....
Mike Delano Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 OK, third clue - this film deals with the topic of time travel in a unique way
Mike Delano Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 The Undead (1957) Mike Nope. Strike 1....
Mike Delano Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Time for another clue as it's awful quite in here. This movie is a more recent release and focuses on the topic of consequences of paradoxes created by time travel. As a fictional starship engineer once said "I hate temporal mechanics..."
papasmurf Posted November 13, 2008 Author Report Posted November 13, 2008 C'MON PEOPLE, HE PRETTY MUCH GAVE IT AWAY THERE...............!!! THAT'S MORE THAN I GIVE THIS EARLY ON..................JEEZ..............
jcorley Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 A Sound of Thunder? Of course, I'm partial to Benders Big Score.... Futurama movie #1 and the best of the three so far.
Mike Delano Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 A Sound of Thunder? Of course, I'm partial to Benders Big Score.... Futurama movie #1 and the best of the three so far. This is a great short story and a decent film about time tourists... But unfortunately, that's a strike... Another set of clues, this film was released in the first half of this decade. Think of this film as an 'introduction' to time travel method (that's another clue) OK, the deadline for this film is 7:00PM EST tonight (Friday).
