didn't have a clue on the first image, now you've changed it, am none the wiser. Looks like Grizzly Adams shooting Gregory Peck ( a bit)

[CPFC_R_GREAT]

Is it bad that I haven't got a single one of these? - That looks like Harry and the Hendersons shooting a man who is asleep? Catchy title.

[hoopsmccan]

Is it something to do with the Daleks?

[James Melody]

No Daleks involved...

[hoopsmccan]

Why is there one in the picture, then?

[James Melody]

It is an anthology style fillum

Amores Perros is the only one I know.

[Maz]

Well sorry.

I should have joined the thread before it got pretentious.

[hoopsmccan]

Hmmmmm. A Mexican anthological movie.

Can we have a bit more time to think about this please.

[James Melody]

[hoopsmccan]

Is it called "Bingo"?

[paf]

Well sorry.

I should have joined the thread before it got pretentious.

I am shocked you did not know this.

Oooh Mellors, did I win?

[Sunny Fan]

Any of my efforts would be too gettable by clicking on the site I link to - I can't be arsed to change it onto photobucket or something like that.

So I'll describe an easy one instead: Man on undercarriage of plane looking down at a missile with the message "Hi there!" witten on the back of the missile.

[Maidstoned Eagle]

yes, but I got it right and I'm an idiot :)
I'd agree with that.

No way is Amores Perros an obscure film - an Oscar nomination (it should have won), BAFTA for best foreign film, Grand Prize at Cannes, Golden Globe and shedloads more. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0245712/awards

[Sunny Fan]

Dr Strangelove or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb?
Yay!
That's in black and white, so might be obscure for some. Apologies.

[Maz]

Yay!
That's in black and white, so might be obscure for some. Apologies. No way is Dr Strangelove an obscure film - four Oscar nominations (which it won), BAFTAs and shedloads more.

Of course the obscurity of a film is not really measured by awards : but let's not worry about that.

Maz, you were found wanting on the cinema knowledge front, why are you trying to twist this into some kind of SF bashing. How peculiar. I dont know anything about motorbikes if that helps.

[Maz]

Maz, you were found wanting on the cinema knowledge front, why are you trying to twist this into some kind of SF bashing. How peculiar. I'm not bashing SF at all - in fact today he is top of my Most Wonderful BBS Chap list.

Just pointing out that Dr Strangelove is not an obscure film - do you disagree?

[paf]

I'm not bashing SF at all - in fact today he is top of my Most Wonderful BBS Chap list.

Just pointing out that Dr Strangelove is not an obscure film - do you disagree?

but he never said that, he said, it 'might' be obscure to some, and that is a perfectly valid comment.

[Sunny Fan]

It's not an abscure film at all, that was a dig, the main point being that Amores Perros is not an obscure film.
So ends my resolve to avoid niggly 'debating'.

[paf]

anyway moving on, ME it's your turn to post a film still if yuo can be bothered.

and Maz is now rlegated to the subs bench in my fantasty, "best BBS quiz team"

[Maz]

but he never said that, he said, it 'might' be obscure to some, and that is a perfectly valid comment. Mas disse que, disse ele, ele ' might' seja obscuro a algum, e aquele é um comentário perfeitamente válido.

Si? Ou é isso obscuro?

Come on Maidstoned - get a film going!

it was renee humphrey and it is drawing flies, bloody well done.

[Sunny Fan]

I thought that looked like Jason Mewes in the background, so yea, you're probably right. And paf would always go for a fillum with someone from Clerks.

[paf]

drawing flies saw the first appearance of silent bob (minus Jay), and also the director once called me a C***

which was nice.
