The Other Movie Quiz [A Bug's Life]

I'm enjoying the film quotes quiz which is going around, but a lot of my favourites have been done already.

This one is ten films I like, with three IMDB keywords - you get to guess the film from the keywords. No cheating with reverse lookups! As a twist, these films all have an additional keyword in common. What is it? (

nmg knows!)

1. Bureaucracy, Air Conditioner, Singing Telegram - (guessed by

nmg)

2. Statue of Liberty, Concentration Camp, Teen Angst - (guessed by

cdave)

3. Strip Tease, Heroin, Volkswagen Bus - (guessed by

sion_a)

4. Surveillance, Marriage Proposal, Cannibalism - (guessed by

nmg)

5. Blood, Space Travel, Vacuum Cleaner - (guessed by

nmg)

6. Doomsday Device, Cowboy Hat, Aerial Refuelling - (guessed by

cdave)

7. Video Store, Swimming Champion, ABBA - (guessed by

nmg)

8. Comic Book, Train Crash, Genetic Abnormality - (guessed by

cdave)

9. Violence, Eye, Beethoven - (guessed by

10. Elvis Impersonator, Hieroglyphics, Gasoline - (guessed by

I'm not screening comments, so make your guesses before you read 'em. I will wait a day before adding the answers to the list :-)

EDIT: I want to go watch all these now. Except #9.

2. Apt Pupil?

9. Clockwork Orange?
10. Bubba Hotep?

2. Never heard of it, so no.
4. Good! But wrong.
9. and 10. Yes and Yes :-)

Apt Pupil is such a wonderful film. I was reduced to tears of whimpering admiration for Lord Ian of McKellen. I hart him so much.

BWAHAHAHA. Fear my knowleeddgggee~

I have waved a fork at Ian McKellan. But I don't think he saw.

*swoon*

That is so cool. SO COOL.

1. Brazil

Yep :-) 'Ducts' is not a keyword! How wrong is that??

Fairly sure about:
2. X Men
6. Dr Strangelove
8. Unbreakable

Wild guesses (and wholly inappropriate):
3. Trainspotting
5. Batteries not included
10. Lilo and Stitch

Missing key word:
Sci-Fi?

2/6/8 Correct!

3/5/10 Wrong!

Not Sci-Fi.

7. Muriel's Wedding

Muuuriel!

6. Dr Strangelove (or how I learned to stop worrying and love the Bomb)

Gaaaah!

5. Gattaca!

Yay!

3. Strip Tease, Heroin, Volkswagen Bus

Boogie Nights? (haven't seen it)

4. Surveillance, Marriage Proposal, Cannibalism

Brazil?

5. Blood, Space Travel, Vacuum Cleaner

That sounds like Spaceballs, except for the blood.

3/5 'Fraid not.

4. Good suggestion, but no. I don't recall any cannibalism in it...

Thinking about it, the common keyword has to be 'wheelchair'.

It is indeed.

And, if the common keyword is wheelchair, and knowing your likes, 4 *has* to be the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

(another slice, anyone?)

And 3 must be Little Miss Sunshine

..which I've never seen. (it's got Alan Arkin in it, hasn't it?)

See it! It's great, in a hideous sort of way!

Pipped to the post, bugger. See it, it's very funny. And a bit sick and twisted.

I have been saving this icon for just this moment.

But I like far too many films with wheelchairs, cannibalism, and surveillance. And singing telegrams and robots.

You win this very small corner of The Internet!

Rar!

3. Little Miss Sunshine?

Full house!

That was an amazing film.

2. X-men
3. Little Miss Sunshine
8. Unbreakable
9. A Clockwork Orange
10. Bubba Ho-tep

Yes indeedy.

1) Brazil
2) X-Men
6) ummm Dr Strangelove?
7) Muriel's Wedding
8) Also X-Men, presumably I'm wrong about 2
9) Clockwork Orange
10) Bubba Ho Tep presumably

He adds
She's right about 2 but wrong about 8, which is Unbreakable. 5 might be Space Truckers

and after a certain amount of prompting from Him (who has looked at the comments) I got the meta link.

Six is good :-)

1 -- Brazil? (But I don't remember the singing telegram's being from this movie)
2 -- Logan's run?
3 -- Dunno, but I think it's probably not Little Miss Sunshine (which I haven't seen)
4 -- Eating Raoul???
5 -- Teletubbies Gone Wild?
6 -- Dr. Strangelove (yee haw!)
7 -- Muriel's wedding
8 -- The Fugitive Thing
9 -- A clockwork orange
10 -- Bubba Ho Tep

Haven't seen Unbreakable, either.

> 5 -- Teletubbies Gone Wild?

LOL! LOL till I can't see any more!

*weeps*

My work here is done.

The only two I can guess:

#6 -- Dr. Strangelove, which I've seen.

and #10 -- Bubba Ho Tep, which I haven't.

Ooh, this is hard. BTW, thank you for not posting the answers next to the questions!

1) Total Recall?
2) Planet of the Apes?
3) Little Miss Sunshine
4) Red Road?
5) Gattaca
6) Air Force One?
7) Muriel's Wedding?
8) Unbreakable
9) *shurg*
10) Bubba Hotep
