Name these Movies
Hey folks, John here.
I love getting these kinds of emails. Darko from Belgium wrote me with a bit of a quiz. He needs to know what 3 movies these pictures come from. Any of you want to take a crak at it?
In the comments section, name the film from top to bottom and you'll win... ummmm... a sense of self worth! Come on! Everyone would like some self worth!

I actually have no clue. Sad thing is they all look familiar :)

I think the 2nd one is from Supernova

Actually, I think the first one's from Commando. No clue on the others.

I'm 100% that the first one is from Commando (that's the guy John Matrix kills on the airplane), the other two? No idea. But I'm curious about the second.

First Pic: Ike (played by Rondell Richards) and Tina story, aired May 1986 on ABC
Second Pic:
Deleted Scene from Minority Report, starring Tom Cruise
Third Pic: Test shot for Austrailian actor Rodney Quinn in the 1974 remake of "The Great Gatsby" for the BBC
Actually I'm lying. I don't know and best of all I really don't care.

#1: Commando
#2: Supernova
#3: no clue. I was going to say Frequency, but the picture quality looks like it's from the 80s. And that aint Jim Caviezel.

#1- Commando
#2- Supernova
#3- I could be wrong, but it looks like Daniel Day Lewis in My Left Foot.

For those of you who get a kick out of identifying screen shots...here is a great weekly quiz that I've been going to for a couple years (it's on it's second incarnation...)
FILMCHAW (link to quiz)
It's always tough!!

Nice, very nice!!
These are though pictures. The 3rd one looks like it is some kind of a 70'ties movie (picture atmosphere and the tape recorder) in a police station (the typical WANTED-papers on the background). Here is the link for a bigger picture: http://users.skynet.be/am263176/3/q2.jpg
Got to be very popular. The Al Pacino look alike reminds me of Anthony James...

the third is it day of the jackal?

That third dude looks like Dylan McDermont (the practice).....
Posted by: jef! at December 10, 2004 12:44 PM
I doubt it is Dylan McDermont, for the simple fact that (when you see the bigger picture) the guy in the 3rd picture has brown eyes and McDermont blue. Secondly, McDermonts first movie was in 1987, and I believe it's an older movie.

I have the answers:
1. Commando.(1985)
2. Supernova. (2000)
3. In the Heat of the Night. (1967)
