The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

This is fun!

10 minutes in, I've still got 30 movies to go.
If I can find 5 more in the next 5 minutes I'll be averaging 1 movie every 36 seconds.
I'm not holding out much hope though. I'm running dry of inspiration! lol

Well I made it to 34 correct before I gave up and looked at the cheats.

Man! I'm really surprised they didn't have "The Exorcist" or "Carrie" in there somewhere!

Found 26 in 23 mn, then I looked at the answers, cause I'm a wimp that way. Turns out there were maybe 3 or 4 I definitely should have found, maybe another 3 or 4 I may have found if I'd worked out the puns (not always easy for a non-native speaker! :P ) but the rest were just too obscure.

I hope someone does something like that again with better movies! :lol:

I managed to find another few after my last message.
I've put it on hold at 33.
Those last 17 are tricky.
I just haven't got a clue, but I'm not going to look at the answers.

There are some novel puns. Red juggling the pennies was a sly one! ;)

Indeed it was! I was totally stumped on that one!

.

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Darkened Archway
Man with a pencil for a head (couldn't tell it was a pencil or I would have gotten it right away :evil: )
Giant Orange with Clockface (thought this was The Time Machine or Time Bandits)
Kids with the map (an answer I was slapping myself over for not getting)
Woman with Bucket of water
Woman with children (kept thinking "Carrie" as in she's carrying the kids)
Three children Dancing in a circle
Monster in the swamp (didn't even see the monster in the swamp :roll: )
Green M&M in a dress
The stairs (who the hell would have thought of that title?!)
Wolves in the field (again an easy answer I felt stupid for not guessing)
Man with spyglass in the window
Grim Reaper in a fenced in area (NEVER would have guessed this!)
Mountain Top
The Colliding Planets (I kept thinking "When Worlds Collide")
.

OK it's safe to read ahead now. ;) :lol:

I kept thinking worlds collide and i threw in mars attacks with no luck. Some of those i'd never even heard of while most i knew, but some of those were really tough because the pictures didn't say much. I thought red juggling was possibly It! with pennywise the clown.

That was fun.

I managed to find a couple more giving me 37. I gave in after that.
Not too sorry I did as most of the ones I was stuck on I hadn't heard of anyway.

i'll see if i can find it, but there was a music one going around with the same dealio. Bands on there represented by images and you have to guess them all. I think what we should do is this. If I can find it, i'll post it and each member will find one band and put there answer in. That way, we all contribute to it.

I'm about tapped out at 26 - but I'm actually surprised I've done this well so far.

It's a play on words Birdie. Again I don't want to just give out the answer so you must highlight my explanation: ;)
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
<span style="color:green;]Count the number of pennies- there are six. Another word for pennies is cents. Six cents = Sixth sense. As said a very sly pun.

Hope this helps. :)
