*Guess the Movie Title*

[Gilbert]

BATMAN: BATCAVE DECOY

[Crimson Wizard]

"The Night of the Hungry Trunk" (1978)

[miguel]

It's shots like this that incite the mob into silly guesses! So we like it!
I know this thread shouldn't be easy but c'mon! A car in a garage? And it's not even the batmobile!

Anyway, I know the film, it's

Spoiler

freekin Blade Runner

[close]

Honestly guys, what's wrong with good old movies anyway? Like Ursula Andress movies, Robert Mitchum, Hitchcock, bloody E.T?
This thread could be a trip to all the great movies of the past but instead is like show us the shot even the directors missed!

C'mon!

And I mean: C'mon!

[Baron]

Sorry, you mentioned Ursula Andress and I just kind of zoned out after that....

[Kasander]

"The Night of the Hungry Trunk" (1978)

Haha;) The Nigth would be pretty close, chronologically. But...Blade Runner is even closer;)

Believe me Miguel, this movie is funnier than Ursula Andress meets Tippi Hedren to talk about her close encounters of fourth kind
When I was in London last year, I was positively surprised to find out that this director's films are really popular with English audience. When I'm talkin about popular, I mean TOP 5 at Waterstone's. 

Ok, a visual hint:

[Eric]

Hey! That's The Leningrad Cowboys Go America!

[Kasander]

Hey! That's The Leningrad Cowboys Go America!

Of course it is! Well done!

I didn't post any screenshots with protagonists' heads for obvious reasons. Here's the shot number 1 again, a few frames later:


Now it's your turn, Eric!

[Eric]

I love this movie and Aki Kaurismäki's work in general. I don't think he's as popular here in the States. I'm also heartbroken everytime that I remember Matti Pellonpää has passed away.

Here's an image for the next round:

[Kasander]

Kudos to you Eric! Well, don't worry mate... I mean, Mr Pellonpää had such a wonderful career, starring in all those Kaurismaki films. Look at how many good actors (from US or anywhere in the world) play in crappy movies all of their life, without a shadow of a chance to be called 'Kaurismaki's actors' or 'Jarmusch's actors' And unless some mad alien cineastes from Proxima Centauri invade eath, nobody will be remaking any Kaurismaki anytime soon, so those movies with Pellonpää will be watched for years to come and new generations will keep on discovering them. They're ageless. 

Besides, we still have Kati Outinen And fortunately, Kaurismaki, who's alive and kicking, shooting & rolling. He has only a (very) small cult following in Poland so I was literally stunned to see his Le Havre (great movie BTW) being #2 at Waterstone's. Well, it could be some 'art films' (LOL) ranking... honestly - I have no idea how it was possible for this kind of movies to occupy #2 spot at a major retail chain store. But still, gotta give some respect to the Londoners

Say, does your movie has anything in common with Italian cuisine?

[Eric]

'Jarmusch's actors'

That part of Night on Earth always destroys me totally. I weep.

I still don't know what a Waterstone's is, but Le Havre was a beautiful movie. Overlooked. Deserved to be Oscar shortlisted for sure.

Now you're using your noodle!

You're not the only one who does:)

Waterstone's is a major book retailer. I guess it's the British equivalent of Barnes & Noble. They sell books, movies and music and have stalls with their current bestsellers on display.

Now you're using your noodle!

Damn, this is very unsportsmanship of me. I should let others take a guess
My only excuse is that I love western Italian cuisine (chef Leone being my favourite )

Is this the famous spaghetti dish called Il ritorno di Gringo (by chef Tessari)

[Eric]

Indeed it is! I know it it best as Return of Ringo, one of the few sequels that I think is better than the original.

[Kasander]

Gotta rewatch some of those Italian gems...

And now for something completely different. Have a big blue cup of whateverkeepsyourenginerunning, everyone!

[Eric]

Well, it's hard to do, but I'll keep mum on this one and let someone else have a turn. But it seems we have similar taste in 60s genre films as well. You, me, and Tarantino.

[Tramponline]

'Humility Conflagration'  (shouldn't count, no 'proper' guess.)

edit: Aah, what the heck. It's a shot of Dirk Bogarde from groovy campy 'Modesty Blaise'.

[Kasander]

Precisely Turn to pick your shot, Trampoline!

[Tramponline]

Sweet. Here we go:

This movie is one hell of a ride! Watch it if you get the chance.
One exceptional example of a subdued plot achieving greatness in it's wake.

Sorry for the low quality of the shot. Will post another one if that one is too obscure.

[Stupot]

Men Who Flash at Ponies (or donkeys, if that's what they are).

[Creamy]

No country for old men?

[Tramponline]

Nope. Neither kinky donkey porn, nor that truely awesome film by the Coen brothers.
Though both of them share certain similarities in their depiction and use of landscapes.

edit: ...by the way, Stu. Did you check the image's properties? My thoughts exactly, when I took that screen-shot!
