Ultima VII Serpent Isle, had to look up the ending on YouTube to make sure

Good call, GG! First guess, bullseye. What gave it away for you?

...*pretend to whistle inconspicuously*...

The game in question is rather a hybrid adventure (crossover).

Ah, that one really fascinated me back then.
Even though I didn't know what was going on most of the time.

The Eidolon.

According to Adeel it's your go.

That's 'Eternam'.

Now post another one...

edit: Arrhh, Grim beat me to the punch!

Totally missed that hint about the three letters.

You're probably right, Grim.

All I've now is random guessing...FBI? ABC? CIA?

Gummo?
Argh, nevermind, much too 'clean'.

Cool! Never watched it but had the ViewMaster wheels

Watch it! It's a bit 'trashy' and the symbolic meaning of the ending is atrocious! But it'll spook you at times, plus that creepy music!

Is it 'Zak McKracken'? From the intro scene perhaps?



Or, 'Sam & Max Hit the Road'?

Although, this is a nice & challenging screen-shot, Cubefiend, we usually have to guess a game in order to post a game - and so on and so forth.

Bedsides, we're the Net generation and have a really low attention span. Multi-threading and having a guessing game exceeding more than one game at a time would instantly fry our brains.

But primarly: Armageddon rarely remembers that he won his turn in this thread AND Grim is rarely THAT confident guessing a game! We simply can't pass on this opportunity!


On topic: I'm damn sure, I've never played that one. I'd even go as far as suspecting Armageddon of having drawn that scene, just to put us off the scent...



edit: Oh, new page. Here's Armageddon's pic(k) once more.

Yep!

Sweet. Some nifty shots, I must say - I can't for the life of me remember that scene with the TV.

Next one is quite easy:

Finally, got some spare time...
(Though, I should stop guessing movies and work on games instead. Oh, well...I guess we're all in the same boat here, eh?)

It's 'Dead Calm', with Sam Neill, Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane.

Nopes all round.

Except, the assumption that this is indeed a movie from the '80s!
Sorry, can't guess now, as I'm a bit swamped at the moment.

Not originally an American actress... 

['Help' -> 'BBCode']

Hey, AGA. This might be just me being a bit daft here, but:

The BBcode for hiding spoiler text is not explained in the list under 'Help' -> 'BBCode'  (forum's menu bar).
[hide] ... Your spoiler text here ...[/hide]

That entry would be quite helpful for new people, I suppose?

Congrats to Darth, for getting really, REALLY old!
And thanks for keeping us buggers at bay in the 'in production thread'!

It'd be madness without you, I tell you, MADNESS! ...and I'm quite aware, you already knew that after all this time.
(Occasionally, I really wish I could see you face while perusing (our) posts violating basic rules for the 'gazillionth' time! "Two screen-shots, FOR  @&*$§% CHRIST 'S SAKE!!!" )

Anyway, the best to you...
 

That's Burt Lancaster in the first shot, isn't it? It can't be that hard!

YESSSSSELMIAK!

It's not 'Heavy Metal' (1981), but your are spot on concerning the time frame, Armageddon.

This film was released in 1982.
A very famous comic artist was involved in it's production (fairly certain you all know him).
He definitely left his surreal & slightly 'psychedelic' mark on the movie.

This one here probably represents his style a bit better:

Since this thread isn't going anywhere: yes, the film is indeed The Prestige.

Hope Armageddon will forgive me for hijacking this thread in the meantime.

Next up:

When I was a kid I caught the first 2 - 3 min of this film one lazy sunday afternoon.
No chance of changing channels after that - mesmerizing! - even though I hardly understood what was going on...

edit: Darn, we already had that one a while back. No peeking!

Man that was quick! That is absolutely correct.

Now it's on you to raise the bar...
