Film Alphabet 1970s
1 Attachment(s)
I thought this might be fun. The pictures represent a film from the 70s by alphabet. There are other decades so I figured if this game took off we'd do the other ones.
Artist's website here. Also the image is from a cheezburger site and you can see it in the bottom left corner. If you check out the site you can get the answers from the comments, which I have done so I refrain from answering. |
A is Apocolyse Now
|
Don't know B.
Clockwork Orange. Deliverance. Enter the Dragon. |
:smack: Oh yea!!!
Blackula! |
Fiddler on the roof
|
I'm doing the one's not mentioned yet that I know. I got all of the ones mentioned so far.
Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS Logans Run Mad Max One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest (?) Rocky Shaft Taxi Driver Up in Smoke Westworld Zulu |
I had B and E.
I'm pretty sure I've got M, O, S and Z but I guess I have to wait. Carry on. Eta, dammit Rich I only knew four, you trumped the lot. :p ETA: K ... Kramer Vs Kramer? |
How about we do them one at a time so others not on or in different time zones/countries can have a shot as them ... just a thought.
|
Kramer vs Kramer? Not sure.

Harold and Maude (maybe) |
These are the ones that are correct so far, according to one person on the site. They are still arguing over a couple of them. Some of them I don't even know.

Yeah,
I knew A, C, D, E, F, J, K, N, L, O, M, R, S, T, U, W, and Z. But I only gave the answer for A because I figured we would make a fun game out of it that might last a day or so. By my reckoning, G is next, and I don't know that one, so I'm keeping quiet on J, N, and Q. Pretty sure I know Q. |
G Good Guys Wear Black?
|
I just figured it was a blurting game. (This is how my family describes games: blurting or not blurting. For example Trivial Pursuit is non-blurting, because people blurt out answers until you nod your head yes.)
Dwellars tend to not monopolize games, so I didn't make rules. If you all want we'll do the other decades one letter at a time. :) So let's fill in the rest, peeps. |
No on G, joe.
G, joe. ;) |
J is Jaws
N is National Lampoon's Animal House Q is Quadrophenia |

Sorry merc, no, no, and no. ;) |
My bad, should have been Harold and Maude. vs made it seem more Fight Club than de Sade.
|
P just came to me. That's Shelly Winters struggling up a staircase in Poseidon Adventure
|
Yes!

I'm going to start guessing now. Is G from the Gauntlet? There were a hell of a lot of guns in that movie, and a shotgun could have been one of them.
|
Godfather?
|
No. It's fairly obscure, I think.
But I looked up the answer they gave (on roflrazzi) in google images, and sure enough, they were right. |
Not Godfather, which is what I would have thought.
edit: fairly obscure in that it isn't a huge film like GF |
Get Carter
|
Woohooo! That's it! The pic matches the image they used for some of the advertising.

The woman from H reminds me a lot of Jane Fonda from her Klute days. But she has no "H" movies. |

H is a good one. You might never get it.
This is the image they used for Get Carter: |
Wish I'd got here earlier.
Get Carter was one of the few I had without hesitation. (It's an English film of course) I'm wondering if the X film could be X, Y and Zee. I know it had Caine in it again, and that could be Elizabeth Taylor. Never seen it, but it came up as a quiz night question once. Very few films out there start with X until you get to the X-Men franchise! I haven't looked it up, but I have a feeling it might be a 60s film. |
YOU'RE RIGHT! I hadn't even heard of that movie! :) (1972)

Just H, V, and Y left.
Let me know when you want me to post hints...I'm thinking the picture it was based on should do it. I may have to block out names, though. |
V intrigues me.
The coat and the stance remind me of Captain Jack Harkness :) |
It is definitely an American movie, in a quintessential American genre.
|
I think I've got it purely from the word clue.
But I then had to check there was a 70s film of that name. So I won't post it because that feels like cheating. |
Oh, I don't think so. It's all part of the game, really. Unless you looked at the comments on the site it's not cheating.

Oops, I meant Y :blush:
(for being intriguing) I assume V is Vengeance |

.... Except the image didn't make the move. grrrr |
IM ...
I got V, but I had to look on the Web cuz at first I thought it was a Clint Eastwoood movie, but then learned it was Burt Lancaster. Since I sorta cheated, should I not post it? |
I think V is Villain.
|
No, you're allowed to look on the web! Post away.
And BigV? What? ;) edit: what referring to moving the page. It is not Villain. |
Valdez Is Coming

my display of this thread has separated the image in your opening post from the current position in the thread. I made an effort to reproduce the image in my post so that I could see the current work AND the image for reference without having to flip "pages" in the thread.
|
Vengeance, I say again.
Will no-one let me have my Vengeance? |

|
Ahh, I see BigV. Thanks for trying though. I have the advantage of having that page up on another window.
And it isn't Vengeance. :D |
