Guess That Movie By Screenshot, Episode VI: The Return of the (Movie) Jedi
 
http://www.pix8.net/pro/pic.php?u=4494IRvZy&i=1083839
l - r: The Stunt Man (1980), Fahrenheit 451 (1966), The Holy Mountain (1973), What a Way to Go! (1964), Casshern (2004)

RULES
Current rules are as follows, from the old thread (subject to change):
1) Only ONE person posts a screenshot at a time. Multiple screenshots and clues are possible to make it easier.

2) Only the person who had guessed the movie correctly is allowed to post a new picture. If that person is not able to post a new picture => wildcard.

2a) In lieu of "wildcard," you can also declare "Kudama Time," which is basically the same thing, only difference is that it feeds the ego of a certain DVDTalk member.

3) If that person doesn't post a new picture within 6 hours => wildcard.

3a) If there are no new screenshots or clues from the original poster within 24 hours => wildcard.

4) You can upload your pictures for free at:

5) Each user has two guesses and one question per post.

FOR PEOPLE NEW TO THE GAME
* You can get a sense of the format for this game by browsing the old threads:

Part I
Part II
Part III
Part IV
Part V

* To take a screenshot, the two most common methods are to play the film on your DVD-ROM drive and use software such as PowerDVD to take a shot (it's the small camera icon in the control panel). Alternatively, you can download the free (and excellent) VLC Player which takes screenshots.

Please note that if you use PowerDVD to take shots, they will come out as BMP files; before posting, please convert them into JPG or GIF files, as BMP files are roughly 1MB whereas JPG files are only 50KB on average. Likewise, VLC Player converts screenshots into PNG files, which can often be 600KB on average. There is plenty of free software that will convert your images for you; three of them are:

Irfanview
Fast Stone
Microsoft Paint

Miscellaneous Statistics for Part V

In a neck and neck race, Kudama keeps his title of Wildcard champion, fending off a hard-charging SterlingBen.

In Part V, Kudama dubbed Luther Heggs a "movie Jedi". Based on these results, Mondo Kane is at least as deserving of the title.

I plan on adding a couple more statistics but I've run out of time today. Something to look forward to, I hope.


By the way, WILDCARD is in effect!

GO CRAZY!!!!!

I love Mondo and agree completely. I posted one (The Children) knowing Mondo would pounce on it Matrix slo mo style.

Awesome, awesome graph!

Ditto to all! :D

I'm clueless on the first one. I know my first guess has to be wrong so I'm holding out a bit. I want to do better this round, but I'm still addicted to wildcards.

edit- Holy Mackerel! Three of mine were used. I didn't notice Fahrenheit 451.

chris_sc77 12-21-07 09:09 PM

You are awesome obscurelabel for posting that awesome in-depth tally of the screen-shot game part V.


My guess for the posted screenshot is: Leslie Vernon (Behind the Mask)?

Abe. 12-21-07 11:00 PM

Man, I only guessed one right? Bah!

gfoots 12-22-07 12:05 AM

Behind the Mask is right. I was hoping to get to post this shot before someone guessed it. The one line in the movie that elevated it to "classic" status.

Many thanks to obscurelabel for all his hard work. Good idea to include all those stats.

Salon Kitty?

Luther Heggs 12-23-07 10:49 AM

I double-checked and it is indeed Tinto Brass' Salon Kitty. In the interest of keeping things moving:

If I could just figure out what that is in his hand...

A literary adaptation, of sorts.

That's a doll belonging to the dead little girl in the shot.

Can't you just tell this is the bad guy from his creepy office decor?

http://i19.tinypic.com/6oacz8g.jpg

And here's his freaky-eyed assistant:

http://i19.tinypic.com/6shyiwo.jpg

The bad guy plot in this movie would be repeated years later in a Charles Bronson thriller.

Kudama 12-24-07 02:25 AM

If I'd have seen this I'd know from the monster in the frame from the third shot. :(

Luther Heggs 12-24-07 03:23 AM

I imagine more people in the US have heard the soundtrack to this movie than have actually seen it. If you've ever spent time overseas, this movie (and others in its series) used to be a broadcast TV staple. Here is our hero - technically also seen in the second shot via stunt double - explaining to our heroine how he faked his own death with a bottle of ketchup.

http://i17.tinypic.com/6o0lg5z.jpg

The actor playing the lead is probably best known Stateside for three things: his appearance in a famously bad movie; his connection to a very famous screen idol; and his later career as a ground-breaking sci-fi novelist.

And here's a bonus shot of our heroine wearing just a bra, skirt, thigh boots, and a bullet-proof vest:

http://i6.tinypic.com/6ozg36d.jpg

Luther Heggs 12-24-07 10:50 AM

This may give you a sense of the time and place:

http://i8.tinypic.com/7xy76gy.jpg

And here's the movie's title encapsulated in one shot.

http://i4.tinypic.com/7xkxysn.jpg

This movie franchise, based on a series of pulp novels, is getting a "re-boot" that's filming now.

Der Tod im roten Jaguar, of course ...

Kudama 12-24-07 01:55 PM

Can we start a "Guess That Comic Book by Panel" game? I'm hopelessly outclassed in movies.

You guys are too much!!!

(Awesome shit. I've rented more cool movies from this game than any other source I can think of. :) )

:lol:

Kudama, I'm a fraud. I'm pretty sure this is right, but it's based on Googling from LH's clues and not on me recognizing the West German "Jerry Cotton" film series (which I didn't). Based on "science fiction novelist" and "actor" I found George Nader, who:

-was in the notoriously bad "Robot Monster" (1953)
-was the companion of Rock Hudson's longtime male secretary, and he and Hudson covered for each other to convince Hollywood they were both straight
-wrote one of the first gay-themed science fiction novels in the 1970s.

So from there it was to IMDB to find something that matched the final shot and it appeared that the red Jaguar title was it. (After all this, I hope I'm not wrong). I think that LH knew that this title would need a lot of clues.

I've made at least one guess based on IMDB research in conjunction with the player's clues. I called myself a cheater and was assured by someone that research counts as part of the game.

Your research kicks ass over the research I did. There's no way in Hell that you're a fraud!

That was me!

OK, I'm pretty certain that my guess was right. George Nader fits the clues, there's a Jerry Cotton movie being made in Germany for release in 2009, and the "Death in a Red Jaguar" title has to be right (right?)

There weren't many pre 1960 movies in the last thread, so here's one:

No, but like it, one of the best noirs of the 40s.

Here's a couple of shots of the leading lady:

This could be interpreted as a description of the main plot element:

If you're celebrating Christmas, have a happy one, and I will probably be back late tomorrow afternoon.
