š„StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #2219 [MonStar makes a splash with A FISH CALLED WANDA]
With the winter storms now behind us, today is the first day this year that finally feels like Spring. To commemorate, I'm going to pick this special selection from my movie garden.
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.
Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie and Video. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.
- 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 and 15 incorrect guesses the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 IMDB votes. Otherwise, add a bonus hint. No documentaries.
- Maximum 2 guesses per player per hint.
- Can't edit a guess once posted. Delete ONLY
- Post one Hint at a time.

Let's get it on!
Hint 1: 22 Jump Street (2014) - Comedy.
Hint 2: La Bamba (1987) - Director has writing credit.
Hint 3: The Candidate (1972) - VFA runtime under 2 hours.
Hint 4: The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) - IMDB user rating is swimming in the 7s.
Hint 5: A Bugās Life (1998) - Over 100 critic reviews on IMDB.
Hint 6: Super Troopers (2001) - Plot keyword 'slapstick comedy'.
Hint 7: Clue (1985) - 20th century film.
Hint 8: Army of Darkness (1992) - Color.
Like a little dog standing under a precariously-placed dangling safe, this round comes to a smashing end at MonStar's hands with A Fish Called Wanda (1988), a hilarious, superbly crafted farce of devilishly irreverent taste. Rarely does a comedy made today present not one, not two, but four sharply defined characters in an ingeniously madcap series of events. This is one of those comedies that "holds up" in the sense that genuine laughter is eternal.
"We didn't lose Vietnam - It was a tie!"
Honestly, it's hard not to think of just Kevin Kline's lines without laughing out loud.
