All righty, then. I threw this one together quick getting ready for the holiday dinner here. Scale is out of whack, but I was looking for movie-accurate vehicle modes. And since when have we fans cared about scale anyway? :lol:

This is just a wild guess, as I haven't seen it since I was a kid. (Something I should rectify.) But is that Cannonball Run?

"Go get 'em, Captain Chaos!"

You got it.

Oh, hooray. I am pleasantly surprised to have gotten that one right. I really should see that again one of these days. (Pity it isn't on Netflix streaming. Maybe I'll see it cheap for sale somewhere someday soon.)

I.. kind of have one. It's really not that good (the image - needs a good backdrop - nor the source material) but it's the only thing I could think of with the props..

And again, ignore the scale.

The Matrix: Reloaded. The scene was the highway battle with Morpheus on top of the semi struck trailer.

Correct mate.

So, by deductive reasoning, I can guess one I've seen only 3 seconds of, but I can't guess "Rear Window", which I can watched in its entirety. Nice.

Well, fortunately I have a couple I cobbled together fast on the holiday evening after the party, and one just happens to be in keeping with the theme.

I know mate, I nailed the cannonball run one yet Empire Strikes Back had me stumped!

Is that Seven Samurai?

It is indeed. Had I any little cowboy hats it would have been The Magnificent Seven, but certain character personalities lend themselves better to the Japanese original.

Nearly guessed Magnificent Seven, until I saw all those swords. How about this one?

"Do you expect me to talk?"
"No, Mr. Bond! I expect you to die!"

Goldfinger is my all-time favorite Bond film. There was no question, although I must say Cosmos makes for an interesting villain.

Last one I have on tap. And it may take a while again.

Yeah it's a great film, however I do prefer From Russia With Love, I chose Cosmos due to his barrel like appearance thought it was a good match to Gert Frobe.

Anyway back on topic, is that The Hustler?

Thanks, don't feel bad, you just happened to pick one of my favorite films, very nice use of props BTW!

Oh, man! I wish I'd been awake for the Goldfinger one. That is my favorite Bond film, too. (It is the bar by which all other Bond films are measured, much like Connery is the bar by which all other Bond actors are measured.)

That Seven Samurai one was good, too. It pains me to say I haven't seen that film, but once I counted how many of them there were, that would have been my guess.

I do have another idea floating in my head, I've just been too lazy to grab my camera the last day or so. Once I am fully awake, I shall try and be un-lazy in such areas today.
