Screen Caps
 
Simple really - just a bit of fun.
Someone posts an image from a TV show or a video game, then someone else has a guess at what the programme/film/game could be. Also, if people feel like it, they can post a witty remark about the screenshot.
Not sure if this'll be successful, but I like to give things a try.

Example:

post 1

[IMAGE]


post 2
[WHAT THE PROGRAMME IS (AND COMMENT IF NECESSARY)]

I'll start off. Please tell me if this idea has been done/is unnecessary.

That's obviously Oddjob from the James Bond series.

Here's an easy one.

300
I'm guessing that they're Spartans.

This should be a pretty easy one.

Well, I'd say Quantum Leap, but that's because I right clicked it, and read the Properties of the image XD.

As for a capture:

Hey, that's funny, I'm sure Trip transported me onto that Xindi battleship!

Here's mine:

Indiana Jones? I doubt it, there's just a kid there who looks like the guy who played Short Round in Temple of Doom.

Nate 04-07-2007 07:45 PM

I considered seperating all those posts into a seperate thread and stickifying them. But instead I deleted them and allowed this thread to progress.

I think that image is from Kill Bill btw.

Leto 04-07-2007 08:10 PM

It's Battle Royale you silly chaps.

This one is blindingly obvious.

snuzi 04-07-2007 08:53 PM

Pan's labyrinth, of couse :).


Nate 04-07-2007 09:55 PM

Pulp Fiction and "Zed's dead baby, Zed's dead"

Now for a toughish one:

Nate, I have no idea.

You're guessing they're Spartans?
Slaps upside da fais (Have you seriously not seen 300? Shame on you.)

OddjobAbe 04-08-2007 05:37 AM

Psycho? Is that the film, Nate?
(I'm just guessing, I have no idea. I doubt it, because I have Psycho on DVD and don't recall this scene.)

Mojo 04-08-2007 06:02 AM

That would be American Beauty. Awesome film.

Here's another hint:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...J_0/spiral.jpg

OddjobAbe 04-08-2007 06:10 AM

A film about Slinky?
Spiral?

Mojo 04-08-2007 08:49 AM

Nope. Nope. This one's a hard one. I'll give the asnwer if there are 5 wrong guesses.

I'll give you a hint: the title of the film features a number.

OddjobAbe 04-08-2007 10:05 AM

28 Days Later.

Mojo 04-08-2007 11:43 AM

Nope. This film was shot in black and white. Try a more... Mathemathical approach.

Nate 04-08-2007 05:17 PM

I'm going to guess it's π (or pi if it didn't look so shite in this font).

This one should be pretty easy.

OddjobAbe 04-12-2007 10:44 PM

No-ones posted here for a while, which leads me to believe that people don't know this show.
I'll only give a hint for now, but if no-one gets it, I'll just give the answer.

HINT: It's about a detective called Jeff R______ who has a ghost partner called M____ ______k.

speed the scrab 04-24-2007 11:19 AM

Randell and Hopkirk deceased!

o.k this one should be pretty easy

so much for easy....

OddjobAbe 04-24-2007 08:59 PM

Hmm. I thought people knew Randall and Hopkirk. Congratulations to Brad (Speed the Scrab) for getting it!
I'm having a think about the film you posted, Brad. I'll edit the post if I think of something.

WaterMelody 04-24-2007 10:04 PM

Speed the Scrab, guessing from the outfits, gun and obvious destruction (also the name of the picture) i would say that the pic was from a resident evil movie.

speed the scrab 04-25-2007 06:28 AM

You're getting close so i'll give you a clue Resident evil A............

OddjobAbe 04-25-2007 07:32 AM

Resident Evil Apocalypse!

Come on, anyone can get this:

Starsky(sp.)& Stupid ,errrr Hutch.

WaterMelody 04-25-2007 05:34 PM

heres my movie pic. Its really easy, its also from my fave movie.

speed the scrab 04-26-2007 12:59 PM

Is it the lion the witch and the wardrobe by any chance?

Nate 04-26-2007 06:04 PM

No, it isn't. *knows that movie backwards*

I'm guessing it's something Henson-related.

WaterMelody 04-26-2007 06:14 PM

henson related? i really dont get that.:fuzconf:

but since you know the movie backwards, you can tell them what it is =D

Nate 04-26-2007 06:17 PM

No, I meant that I know The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe backwards.

Now, based on the puppet and the fact that the filename mentions Bowie, I'd have to place my guess as Labyrinth; the Henson movie starring David Bowie.

WaterMelody 04-26-2007 06:50 PM

ah, i get it. sorry xD. but your right. its Labyrinth, the best movie i've seen so far in my lifetime. as you can see, i'm easily pleased xD

moxco 04-29-2007 12:19 PM

http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/1...aaaaxv7.th.png
EDIT: Sorry 'bout that don't know how I put the wrong image there....

Mojo 04-29-2007 03:58 PM

Which would be?

Mutual Friend 04-29-2007 04:12 PM

The obvious answer is Troy because it is Troy. But it isn't that, so I'm clueless. :)

Nate 04-30-2007 01:42 AM

Perhaps he thinks the obvious answer would be 300, what with the similar era and that movie borrowing props and costumes from Troy. But it's clearly not 300 because the image is too sharp and the ground and background aren't CG.

Voodoo Hand 04-30-2007 06:35 AM

Not Troy ??
 
Sure looks like Brad Pitt playing at the beach in that 2004 stinker Troy.

speed the scrab 04-30-2007 12:46 PM

Is it sparticus?
