Well, I admit to being something of an aficianado, although I've never been to Stamford. Maybe once I get my Sunday NYT time down below ten minutes I'll give it a shot.

Anyway, this shot is a little obscure, so I'll give a non-hint hint in advance: the original title is far, far cooler than that of the English release.

Reminds me of a Movie I saw a long time ago about Kaspar Houser... I think it was called Kaspar Houser or maybe Diary of Kaspar Houser?

I think that's as close as we're going to get. Well done, MI!
The English title was The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser - quite plain vanilla compared to Herzog's original title: Jeder für sich und Gott gegen alle.

Okay, here's one which I don't think will last.

That diner scene is so classic. I should put it on my iPod so I can make myself laugh whenever I want.

Game on,

Now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

I have this strange sort of guess well up from within me as to what it could possibly be, based on, oh, the filename.

But I'll give ol' Rabs a moment to fix that, yes?

I would definitely have to say The Care Bears Movie for that one.

I already fixed the filename! (originally had 'Looking' instead of 'Searching' - oh no!)

But the Care Bears Movie it is. Man, I was sure I'd have to at least show an open book before someone got it.

Try this one on for size.

This is House, innit? That episode with the crazy woman... 1st season, I think...

Wow. I thought that one would go a little longer. I even selected a shot that had nothing to do with medicine and had no character faces.

Guess I'll have to try harder next time.


You're up Bombadil.

I've watched the first season of House recently (three or four months ago) so it was still kinda fresh in my mind...

Well, here we go, try this one...

Oh, so very easy. Revenge of the Nerds (the first and only good one).

Then again, they're all easy to whomever recognizes them, and really hard to everyone else, eh?

The fact I can recognize that screenshot as Real Genius is somewhat frightening.

That was indeed frightening. Once you said it, yeah, I did recognize it, but I don't think I would have thought of it myself.

Alas, I am absolutely no good at this garbage, and thus must leave you with this.

right, the rules of this game confuse and infuriate me: Do I post a new screenshot since you people don't know what I'm on about, or some sort of textual hint?

Oh man, this is a hint in such a hilariously roundabout way.

On the other hand, I'll look brilliant when someone gets it.

Well, I had a feeling I knew it after your first post; now after that hint I'm a little more positive. Is is Canadian Bacon?

(A most excellent hint, eh?)

I knew that looked familiar, but I never bothered to look up Rhea Perlman movies. Ah well.
