Same here and this thread seems to be getting hard, or I'm getting more stupid.

Which is why when asked if it was obscure or mainstream, I said yes. :P
It was a Hollywood movie - Meg Ryan and Russell Crowe - but not a super well-known one. It's actually quite good though.

Is WEY's one Red Dragon?

It is. A google search gave me the answer but it didn't seem fair.

Ahh, is it The Salton Sea?

(didn't search for Val Kilmer, did search for images of The Salton Sea - I've actually seen it, but never when anything even approaching sober)

I'm going to assume that yes, it is the Salton Sea, and so here's my next fillum. Before anyone asks, it's not obscure in any way, shape, or form. So, without further ado...

Pfffft.

I think we both know the answer to that one.
(and that answer is "no", by the way, so keep guessing)

Nope.

I hadn't heard of that movie before (heard of the guy it's based on, but not the fillum itself), and I think I'll keep an eye out for it on the floor - it sounds good.

I know it's not but Brokeback Mountain?

I can't work out what the person, assuming it is a person, is doing in the foreground.

It's not Brokeback Mountain (seriously, did you really think I'd have that on DVD?)

It is a person in the foreground - trying to catch a fish, I believe.


Edit: it's not Ravenous, either.

Berk guessed Highlander to me over IM, but for some weird reason he refused to guess in the thread... you know Berk. :roll:

Anyway, it's not Highlander.

True, but the movie is really not Cold Mountain.
