The Hidden Blade Assassin's Creed in Depth

Here's a tip, gerund. Don't use the title of the movie in the image file name. It makes it too easy to cheat!

oops...

Speaking of Ed Gein, stabgal and I just watched the movie called Ed Gein. It's a dramatization of the actual events that is said to closely follow the true story. That must be why it was so dry. After coming to know interesting characters like Norman Bates and Buffalo Bill, the real Ed Gein comes off as a lonely and pathetic schizophrenic. Not recommended.

There are other movies such as Ed Gein: The Butcher of Plainfield but I hear they're even worse.

Joey, it's your turn.

Quoting for emphasis.

Any more clues? I can't say I've seen it.

It's based on a Broadway play from the 60s.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to The Forum

Yep! The funniest movie ever created, in my opinion.

It looks like Woody Allen in that picture.

Whatever film that is, I want to see it.

Looks like Austin Powers to me.

Joey was right. It is Woody Allen back when his movies were hilarious. Still looking for a title...

Just based on what's in the image....

??

Woody Allen made a film called Bananas but this one came out a couple years later. Here's a more iconic image:

I guess you guys aren't familiar with this movie. Here's part of the plot summary (from Wikipedia):

The one-word title of the film is a reference to Miles' situation.

The only word I can think of to descibe this is Screwed, but that's just a guess. *looks up movie* No, Screwed doesn't star Woody Allen. Instead it stars another comedian, Dave Chappelle.

Common bond:

_______ Cell
_______ Car
_______ Hold

blood (cell) ... no (doesn't work with rest)
splinter (cell) ... no
prison (cell) ... maybe, but a stretch
foot/hand (hold) ... no
sleeper? sleeper.

Yes! Sleeper is the title of the Woody Allen movie.

Alright. After that tough one... this one should be a little easier.

Free Willy.

Absolutely. Fun/sad story time.

The orca that starred in that movie (Keiko) used to be in (I think) an Ontario Canada aquarium where the conditions were so bad (shallow water) that his fin curled (to stay in the water) and he developed skin lesions. He was then moved to a Mexican amusement park then starred in Free Willy. After the movie, there was a huge effort to find him a new home, and eventually he was moved to the Oregon Coast Aquarium where I got to see him many times as a child (and his weight increased over a ton to healthy levels). Finally, they shipped him to his home waters off the coast of Iceland hoping that he would eventually become a member of one of the many pods there, maybe even his original one. Ultimately this didn't work. After years of acclimation he was released only to show up weeks later off the coast of Norway (I think) trying to find human contact, even letting people ride him. After this, he just followed a boat (which was responsible for his care - why this boat existed, I couldn't tell you) around until his death.

But there you have it: the life story of one of the two movie stars I've been around/met. If I win again, I'll post a shot of the other movie actor I know. (Maybe I know more than 2, I'd have to think a little bit more).

That's very nice to know. There are a few people I know who have a friend or two involved in movies, usually extras and stunt doubles. Even one person from the same company I worked with claimed to have gone to high school with a famous actor.

(apologies for the violence in the second pic)

On first glance, there was a horse head in the second picture. I cannot unsee it now.

This may be hard to place for some people. Here's the basic description:
After just completing his training at a ninja school, an army vet travels to the Phillippines and finds himself battling a land grabber who wants his war-buddy's property.
The plot sounds similar to The Way of the Dragon, although the title name is closer to Enter the Dragon

I don't know anything about ninja movies. Is there one called Center the Wagon?

Unscramble for a clue.
The Movie title is Enter the yamysosnsasfnrosni.

synonym srafosnsias

synonym for [insert rest of scrambled word here]

Synonym for... assassin?
Someone finish this, I don't know a movie with a name like that.

Enter the ... Killer? Ninja? Hitman?

Gerund got the clue and Mcstab with Cheese got the title, so you both win. Double movie pictures should make this game more interesting.

As promised... the other movie star I've met in person was in this movie.

You met Napolean Dynamite?! We, I , need to hear more about this.

This is from Napolean Dynamite, right? I recognize it as the scene after the credits where Napolean rides the horse at

Yes.

Jon Heder and I are from the same hometown (Salem, Oregon). And grew up in the same religion (LDS). He is I think only about 4-5 years older than I am, if memory serves me, part of the youth traditions in the LDS church is Saturday night dances every month or so, and I met him at one of those when I was young (maybe 14) and he was older. Additionally, I'm pretty sure he was a swimmer at South Salem High School. I was a swimmer at my high school as well, so I saw him at a swim meet or two early in high school too (because he was an alumnus supporting his team on the side of the pool).

EDIT: I forgot the most obvious time I met him... AFTER the movie came out. He did a meet and greet at a showing at the Salem Mall theater when the movie opened. A bunch of my church friends wanted to go (mostly because he was a Mormon movie star now) so I met him at that too... but that's not a candid meeting so I forgot to include it.

Holy sh*t

Yes, that's Kurt Russel. I don't know why the pic is in black and white, but it was one of the few good ones I could find. Another screenshot I hoped to get was where a table was chopped in half.

I remember this movie. I think it's called "The Strongest Man in the World". Kurt Russell did a series of films where he'd accidentally acquire superpowers.

You got it. This is an extremely fun Disney movie made in 1975. If anyone doesn't think it's funny they have no sense of humor. There's also another movie, The Barefoot Executive, which also stars a monkey. It's about

In the series I mentioned, Kurt Russell always played a character named Dexter Riley with a superpower:
The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1969) - genius
Now You See Him, Now You Don't (1972) - invisibility
The Strongest Man in the World (1975) - strength

Well, if I'm looking at that right, that's 10 plates each side, or 945 lbs.

There exist real people who are stronger than that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5M13EBl_jF0

I threw my back out watching that video.

That's just a dead lift. Dexter Riley continued on to clean and jerk it!

Remember when he throws it down?

That's The Usual Suspects. One of my favourite movies.
