That looks a bit like The Fifth Element, but I'm not entirely sure. It's been quite a while since I last saw that movie.

Nah, it's The Fifth Element alright.

I knew there was a reason I should have gotten up early today...

np: Fat Jon & Styrofoam - Acid Rain Robot Repair (The Same Channel)

You're right, Stefan. It's The Fifth Element, when they're putting the passengers to sleep for the spaceflight. You're up.

No, it's not Babylon, but it's somehow related.

No, it's not that, either. Perhaps it's time for another screenshot, even if only an almost equally obscure one.

This screenshot shows, among other things, the very characteristic use of colours in the movie:

I'm surprised that no-one seems to have seen this film (or that no-one recognized the director (although I admit that he doesn't really look like himself in that picture). However, if you have seen this movie, you'll probably remember this bottle-filled place:

"The Element of Crime" also known as "Forbrydelsens element"?

After googling for Hotel Elite and Harry Grey.

Yup.

Many of you have probably heard of a director named Lars von Trier (does Manderlay, Dogville, Dancer in the Dark, Breaking the Waves or Riget ("The Kingdom") say anything to you)? Well, this is his first feature film (from 1984), and IMO also one of his best movies (if not the best movie he's made).

If anyone's wondering how this has anything to do with Babylon: There is a Swedish Dogme-movie from 2001 named Babylon. Lars von Trier is one of the persons behind the Dogme 95-manifesto...

Your turn, Stephen4Louise.

OK, I'm not sure how long this one will last, but I can get as many screenshots as needed until someone gets it.

First up...

Well done. You have taken the first step on the road to enlightenment.

Good luck!

Trigun. No doubt about it. (Or rather: Vash the Stampede's glove...)

But where's the bad image quality from?

Got it in one! Bad quality image is from a downloaded trailer. If no-one got it before I got home from work I was planning to take a few screenshots from my DVD's.

You're next Briareos.

*phew*

I had feared that the old Trigun DVDs were of that quality...

Anyway, here's a new one:

Actually, it is... great movie about a great actor played by a great actor (Geoffrey Rush, probably well known as that mean Captain Barbossa from Pirates of the Caribbean... )

Why do I even try?

You're up.
