Stonekeeper's Winter Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #249 [The Village (2004), guessed by FredBurroughs]
So you guys like to play games? Here is an investigation game that can be time consuming but it's lots of fun. Basically, I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.
Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.
- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints, the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 votes on IMDb.
Hint 1: Modern Times (1936) - Country of origin: United States.
Hint 2: House Party (1990) - Director and writer are the same person.
Hint 3: The Searchers (1956) - Aspect ratio 1.85 : 1
Hint 4: Cabin Boy (1994) - Rated PG-13 by the MPAA.
Hint 5: Six-String Samurai (1998) - Released later than 1990.
Hint 6: The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio (2005) - Metascore under 60.
Hint 7: Midnight in Paris (2011) - IMDb rating 6.0 to 8.0.
Hint 8: Invincible (2001) - Drama genre.
FredBurroughs wins with The Village (2004), an unusual film from M. Night Shyamalan. Shyamalan's movies are an acquired taste; I find that I'm not sure what to make of them when I first watch them, but they tend to hang around in the back of my head for a while and then when I watch them a second time after a few years, I find they've grown on me lol. The Village is one of my favorites of his.
