Getting warm there.

Oh, I've got a good idea for one! I'll have to break out the camera in the morning and see if I can get it.

In the meantime, still stumped! Of course, never been huge into the Western genera... Only ones I own in my vast movie collection are Blazing Saddles, ¡Three Amigos!, and (if you count it) Back to the Future, Part III. Hopefully someone guesses the right answer soon!

Ok, time for hints. Even if you don't watch a lot of Westerns you may be able to get it with this (and Google ). And I promise the next one I put together is so easy a five-year-old could get it.

Bumblebee is here for his connection to Prime. This particular BB is used especially for his color.

"Rusty" DOTM Megatron represents an actor known for playing "dirty."

A trailbreaker is also known as a pioneer.

Prime is very similar to the hero of the film, especially his voice.

It's not High Noon is it?

No, it's not. I'm going to work at my second job now. I'll post the answer when I get back home. That gives you 5 more hours to brainstorm.

Okay, gentlemen, I'm back and the answer is: "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," with John Wayne and James Stewart.





Stewart played a lawyer who came out west (the pioneer/trailbreaker) to start a new practice. He ran afoul of the town bully, Liberty Valance, played by Lee Marvin (who later went on to star in the war classic "The Dirty Dozen"). John Wayne's character, a local rancher, and his ranch hand/best friend (played by Woody Strode, who was black), take it upon themselves to watch out for Stewart, who thinks using guns is barbaric. One night Valance corners the lawyer alone on the main street and tries to gun him down, not knowing Wayne and his ranch hand are in an alley across the street. Wayne kills Valance, but from hiding, making it look like Stewart shot him. Through circumstance, Wayne loses everything after that night, while Stewart goes on to become a state senator, riding the fame of an act he doesn't even know he didn't commit.

Well.

Nope, woudn't have got that.

Well, I guess we know what genera to go with if we want to post real stumpers, now!

Still have to put together that idea I mentioned myself as having last night... I'll try and get to it sometime today, and when I do have it ready I'll be sure to post it in the next available window. (As in, if we're not mid-guess on someone else's pic at the time.)

How about this one.

That film with the guy shooting the gun!


(Probably Rambo?)

It may appear quite generic at first glance, but the stance and angle of the shot are important, it's a very famous film and scene.

I edited the post, but I'll say it again: Rambo, maybe?

No, but the same era.

Should he have a band wrapped around his forehead..?

That's the fella!

As promised, this one will be easier than my last submission - I hope. I didn't have the right props to make it exactly accurate, but I think you can recognize it.

Raiders of the Lost Ark, nicely done.

No, Raiders had the giant boulder scene at the beginning.

I'll through this open to someone else, as I have nothing to post at present.

I feel like I'm being piggish, but I have 2 more waiting in the wings so I'll go ahead and share one. Tried to do this outside, but I couldn't get them to stand on the grass. I also hate that I had to wire the gun to Brawl but I had nothing else to get him to hold it.

Gonna go ahead and guess it's Predator.

Bingo! Hey! I gave Onslaught your weapon!

Oh, looks like I missed a few good ones during the day! (Sorry, I was occupied elsewhere.)

Anyway, hope no one minds if I pop in with a new one, the one I mentioned yesterday that I was putting together. Here you go:
