No, I think that's "Hard-boiled". But it may be "hard target". I get the two confused.

As for the Mark's pic, it looks a lot like a SF.com movie about the nuclear attack or the apocalypse done by one of the forum members (was it Travis?). But, in actuality, I think that's "bang bang your dead". Was that screen grab cropped? That's not the right aspect ratio.

Nope, the nuke thing was done by Kane, and I hope he would recognize his own movie!

ha!

here's one staying with Asian foreign cinema:


The picture frame is a big hint.

I have that poster on my wall in my editing room. Though I bought the DVD, I haven't seen it yet. It looks like BATTLE ROYALE.

If I'm correct, someone can have my "place".

Snooze ya lose!

Well actually it was "The Killer" by John Woo. I've never heard of "Hong Kong Face Off" even though Woo did make a movie called "Face/Off" but it was made in America, and starred John Travolta and Nicholas Cage. Joren was closest though with "Hard-Boiled" which another of Woo's movies and is also very cool (and also stars Chow Yun-Fat).

No clue about the last one though.

I made a film that was primarily shot in nightshot, and in a similar aspect ratio to that one (if not the same ratio) called "Entre to Exis," it's on this site, but that screenshot is not from it (I was gunna mention my film, but the Hilton joke seemed funnier at the time and I didn't think anyone else would see the similarity either, but they did, which is good). All the same, we should start a seperate thread that only has screenshots from sf.com films, would be more interesting.

HDK, in the interest of being thorough, I watched "one night in paris" three times in a row. I can safely say that screen grab is not from the movie. I still think it's from my first guess, "Bang! Bang! You're dead!" But, it's still isn't the right aspect ratio from the screen grab. Like Travis' pic. Is it one of the human ghosts from LOTR? Could be wrong, but that's definitely not the any of the aspect ratios LOTR was distributed in. It makes it a totally different game if you start cropping screen grabs.

I think Heliotrope should go again. He stumped us. I knew it was John Woo. And obviously stared Chow Yun-Fat. But apparently, that didn't narrow it down enough. LOL.

...and Mark, you should see Battle Royale. It's very interesting. Definitely disturbing, but fun at the same time.

thanx for takin one for the team

Nah, it's okay. I didn't think it'd be that hard, but oh well, lol.

My pics not from LOTR.

think about 25 years eralier.

You are correct Joren, my grab was from "Bang Bang You're Dead." I didnt crop it though, just grabbed it from google and saved.

the forsaken pic is from dark crystal, and I guess Joren's is "Battle royale" cause everyones moved on from that

haha, i dont know where that's from but it sure reminds me of the infamous "mmm, Malkovich" scene from "Being John Malkovich."

No way, it's totally from one of the best movies ever: City of Lost Children. Damnit, I want to play some more...

elliott.

Maybe you could just describe a frame from a movie. "theres a guy doing something with some other guy in a car of some kind" which would of course be french connection. I'll take your turn 'cause i'm bored at work. The filename is the only hint

Is that THE PRODUCERS? Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel. If so, someone can have my turn!

alright this is the last one, if someone gets this and noone else posts I'll leave the topic alone. Grimlock, Mark and I can play over PM.

why is this the last one? Other people are playing other then you and Mark.

Oh, and I have no idea what this is.

last one from me i meant, b/c ive posted like 3 in a row. I wasn't trying to close the topic by any means. The filename for that pic is a hint.
