Movie Meme
Apparently, Sissy thought I needed something to post about, so she tagged me with a meme. Of course, I got right to it.
Here are the rules: Pick out ten favorite movies, then look them up at IMDb. In the overview at the top of each movie's page, there are "Plot Keywords," usually five of them. (Plus more, if you click the link.) Take the first five, and post them. Then the rest of us get to play movie buff and see if we can guess them.
1. Machine Gun / Accidental Killing / Blood Splatter / Hunting / Severed Finger --- Snatch
2. Poker Player / Poker / Vomit Scene / Black Comedy / Robbery --- Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
3. Anachronistic / British / Eccentric / No Ending / Corporeal Mortification --- Monty Python and the Holy Grail
4. Snake Oil / Medicine Show / Corruption / Deception / Impostor --- The Inspector General
5. Wench / Hypnotism / Fox / Poison / Reverse Footage --- The Court Jester
6. On The Road / Parody / Race / Conflict / Car --- The Great Race
7. Beautiful Daughter / Dragon / Blacksmith / Expedition / Norway --- Eric the Viking
8. Christmas / Horse / Beautiful Woman / Safecracker / Horse Racing --- The Lemon Drop Kid
9. Latin America / Remake / Satire / Silent Movie Star / Spoof --- ¡Three Amigos!
10. Furnace / Obsession / Paranoia / Peeping Tom / Xenophobia --- The 'Burbs
I'll not tag anyone... first off because I'm a damn nice guy, and secondly, because everyone has already done it.
Happy guessing...
Some of these movies are older than you might think.

Tommy: You got both 9 and 10, and you're damn close to another.
Drc: Nope. Though, "Blues Brothers" is definitely one of my favorites!
Posted by: That 1 Guy at June 1, 2007 09:45 AMAlright, my turn, and these are guesses based on what I know about you and things you've expressed under the Yuengling haze:
2. Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown
3. Time Bandits *
4. Breakin' 2: Electric Bugaloo
5. Barbara Streisand's Yentl
6. Knight Rider: Knight of the Phoenix
7. Showgirls
8. Debbie Does Flicker
I'd guess, but I haven't got a clue...
