Quote:I'd replace wanda with Spies Like Us!

You must be ka-ka-ka kidding. Kevin Kline's one and only GREAT role. Amazing up and down though. I enjoyed Spies but in my book not even close. Capt Ron on the other hand...well I'm a sucker for pirates but that's another category for me so inapplicable.

At bottom is the information we have thus far. I will knock one of these bastards off right now or this contest is a fraud and we the fools:

Who's Harry Crumb? (1989)
Harry and the Hendersons (1987)
When Harry Met Sally... (1989)
Let's Get Harry (1986)
Tom, Dick, and Harry (2006)
How Harry Met Sally... (2000)
Deconstructing Harry (1997)

Quote:Straight-forward (and possibly a 1-to-1 mapping?)

1 is from the 70s (Action?)
1 is from the 80s (Comedy?)
1 is from the 90s (Horror?)
2 are from the 00s (ComDra & ActionSciFi?)

Genres:
Action
Comedy
Horror
Comedy-Drama
Action-Sci Fi

Misc (Chronological order - though the #1 equivalent my fav color re usefulness, no doubt by design)

1) Here's a hint: These are all movies that I had never before seen prior to yesterday.

2) Another hint: Last night I watched the sequel to one of them. (Posted: Wed Nov 14, 2007 9:25 pm)

3) And no, it's not Harry Potter. Though one of them does have the name of the main character in the movie title

4) Rocky 6: No, but close. Only one of the movies (not this particular one) was a sequel.

5) It's not porn. In fact, one of them had no female characters at all, and another couldn't have had a female on screen for more than 5 minutes.

No, stupid. You completely misunderstood hint #3. I said that the name of the main character is in the movie title. I never said this name was Harry.

Based on this information and the rest of the hints, I pretty much just gave away one of them. If you don't get this now, you're just not trying.

I listed the genres in the order I watched the movies in and obviously the years chronologically. You did get 2/4 right though in your mapping.

Bloody Anus · 11-17-2007, 08:26 AM

Oh yeah, Captain Ron is a very good guess (though not close to anything) and a very good movie. I remember masturbating to Martin Short's daughter, who apparently is Jeremy Sisto's sister. How about that.

Bloody Anus · 11-17-2007, 08:35 AM

Now DIG will misinterpret that post and start spreading the rumor on all his messageboards that Martin Short is Jeremy Sisto's biological father.

I got 6 windows dowloading 500M of porn, I'm juggling two death threats, I got no fucking cigerettes left...I'd say I did quality job under the circumstances....geez

Bloody Anus · 11-17-2007, 09:52 AM

You did do a quality job copying and pasting those hints, I can't deny that.

And "misunderstand" is not accurate as I merely guessed one of the several logical conclusions one could draw....harrrrumph

So I finally ended up getting in HDTV cable box to match my HDTV. Holy Shit, HDTV is amazing. I will watch the most boring shows on earth just because they are in HD. I was watching some show called Sunrise Across the Earth or something like that where it's exactly what you think. They just put a few cameras in random cities around the planet and film dawn. I'd watch paint dry in HD

Mad · 11-18-2007, 06:02 PM

Fucking rube.

Galt · 11-18-2007, 07:27 PM

I still haven't finished SOCOM II

Mad · 11-18-2007, 07:37 PM

SOCOM is dead to me, until they figure out the lag and network issues.

diceisgod · 11-18-2007, 08:49 PM

Holy shit I forgot all about SOCOM. Amazing game that I was reaching near prodigious levels. Never played the 2nd though I bought it - still in plastic I think if it's not tossed.

1 is from the 80s (Comedy?)
1 is from the 90s (Horror?)
1 are from the 00s (ActionSciFi?)
1 are from the 00s (ComDra?)

Bloody Anus · 11-20-2007, 12:21 AM

Here, I'll merge the hints:

70s (Comedy): Couldn't have had a female on screen for more than 5 minutes.
80s (Action): Watched the sequel, has the name of the main character in the movie title, close to Rocky 6, closer to Rambo III, no female characters, if you don't get this now you're just not trying.
90s (Horror)
00s (ComDra)
00s (ActionSciFi): is a sequel

diceisgod · 11-20-2007, 12:55 AM

Ok I think I have one as I have seen it on the tv scroll thing many times but no interest really. Also (according to wiki) it concerns sports/football (ie. you're a gambling degenerate) and it's about male prison & prisoners (ie. no chicks):

The Longest Yard ('74)....??
