Not Quite Dead Posted September 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Yes it is. Gahjini with Amir Khan. This is something... else. Kinda funny to watch, in my opinion. It's your turn! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonewolf Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Actually I vaguely knew about the movie because one of the actresses is a stunner, guessed it was the one because of the tattoes and had no other ideas for what it might be ;0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acting is average but surprisingly effective given the unusual premise.

Not Quite Dead Posted September 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 And beside, The Monolith Monsters seems to be quite a fitting movie on a forum such as The Overlord. Anyway, @Stonewolf, it's your turn! *getting ready to answer* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawon Samdi Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) Abyss & Near Dark Didn't know about the second one, I had to search through Henriksen's filmography. I then realized that it was Bill Paxton on the picture. Game over man. Game over. Edited September 20, 2017 by Bawon Samdi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawon Samdi Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 You have considerably challenged by idea of what's easy and what's difficult, so, in no particular order: 1/ 2/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do the players wish to change the system, and use instead something like: each movie is worth 2 pts, and guessing both movies gives 5 pts?

Bawon Samdi Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 We can keep the same system. It's just that it's so subjective that sometime I have a hard time deciding if one movie will be easy or hard to guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonewolf Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) Yep, the system is fine, movie appreciation is so subjective it defies quantification and poster decides is just right I think And I haven't the beginnings of a clue on these two unless the bottom one is the BFG?

Bawon Samdi Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 See ? I was quite confindent that both movies will be easy to guess. Clue time ! (1) is a scifi animated movie adapted from a TV serie Aronofsky has been ... ahem ... "highly influenced" by (2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted September 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 With the clue, I was able to understand what was the second movie, even if I haven't seen it. I've watched the trailer, and I think I'll give it a shot. That is, if that movie is Perfect Blue (1997). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An amazing movie by Kon Satoshi.

Not Quite Dead Posted September 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I'll give you some clues, in order to help you. The first movie is a recent revival about a important character in chambarra (before this movie, 26 motion pictures were produced between 1962 and 1989 telling the adventures of that character). Both movie have the same director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawon Samdi Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) I don't know many chambarra character so i went for Zatoichi. After a quick search on google for Zatoichi + geisha i've found that it could be " Blind Swordsman Zatoichi ". Didn't see it so i'm not sure.

Not Quite Dead Posted September 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Yep, you're right. The easy movie is known in the US as The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi. It was directed in 2003 by Takeshi Kitano, well known for his modern yakuza motion pictures, such as Violent Cop, Sonatine, or Brother. The difficult movie is about the creation of art. The main character (played as usual by Kitano himself) is an unsuccessful painter. It's called Achilles and the Tortoise (2008). Your turn to play! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawon Samdi Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Wow. I actually saw that Kitano's Zaitoichi but totally forgot about this scene on the picture you have chosen (well, it was 20 years ago ...) and it was just callad Zaitoichi for its french release. And i really should have taken a closer look to the picture I would have recognized Kitano on the second one. Shame on me. My favorite Kitano's movie is Hana Bi which includes a lot of paintings by Kitano himself. Still trying to guess which one is hard, which one is easy: Easy: Hard: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted September 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 No idea for the first one, but I'd say that the second movie is Bound by the Wachowski broth... sisters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
