Welcome to the third installment of the Name that Movie or TV Show game. If you are a regular reader, you probably seen or participated in the the first and the second one. If not, you can go and revisit them now and see how many you can guess without looking at the comments.
If you don’t know how this works here are the rules: the picture below contains numbered frames. Try to guess what movie or TV show was each frame taken. Post your guesses in the comments. And don’t worry, there are no winners in this game – only losers. Oh, wait… Maybe it’s the other way around. Anyways, there will be moist and delicious cake upon completion – that I can promise.
Unfortunately these things are getting progressively harder to make. I could try to compensate by watching more movies, but it is so infuriatingly hard to finds ones that do not totally suck. Because of this, there is some overlap between this and the two previous games. But since I used different shots so it still may be challenging to some.
Have at it. :)

@Petr – Nice! You got most of them!
2. Is not 28 Weeks Later
11. Yes, but which one? The Miniseries or the Movie?
20. Is not Brazil
:)
@Dr. Azrael Tod – heh, I wasn’t expecting #8 to be guessed so quickly. :)
#8 to recognize the movie was easy.. to find the name was the hard part *g*
#11 what do you mean by miniseries? i think it was kind of three movies… but i can tell its the new dune, not the pretty old (german?) movie
I thought for sure #2 was from the subway scene in ’28 Weeks Later’… looks like the same actress too..
on #11, I don’t remember that scene from the Lynch movie so I’m going to guess the miniseries (which I’ve never seen…)
Is that Edward Norton in #18? I’m gonna guess ‘Fight Club’.
I got the strangest feeling I should know #20, but I’m drawing a blank (guessed on ‘brazil’.)
I haven’t seen “eye of the needle” in a long time, but that’s the first thought that came to mind when I saw #14. Not at all sure tho..
I think the rest are TV and/or anime which I don’t watch much of…
There is a German Dune movie? I didn’t know that. The ones that I know of are:
1. Dune the 1984 movie with the weird voice amplifying guns Sting as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen
2. Dune the 2000 Miniseries which included Dune Messiah and Children of Dune plot and originally Aired on SciFi channel
Pardon any duplicates from previous posters. Didn’t look at their’s first…more challenging that way :)
1. Run Lola Run
2. Rec
3. Memento
4. Pineapple Express (haven’t seen it…total guess)

20.
Um..could #20 be Dr. Who?
10. Neon Genesis Evangelion, and I’d even guess the new “NGE for stupids”-movie you reviewed a while ago
And the sixth one is the time capsule you reviewed previously. Forgot the name though
Could #15 be Lost?
On a side note, it’s funny that the flag shows Australia while I’m in India…
My guesses (for those I haven’t seen answer to:
2. This could be the long kiss goodnight.
10. Spirited Away
11. Dune – the miniseries (that’s Paul’s sister).
(I also got Mononoke and Akira – says something about me, perhaps)
I feel I should recognize 5 – but there is too many vague guesses there, not good enough to put down.
I think #4 is Dexter… looks familiar.
Is #20 Twelve Monkeys?
@Steve – #4 is not pineapple express, and #20 is not Dr. Who but otherwise you nailed them.
@Mats Rauhala – yes and yes (the movie was called Primer)!
@Ricardo – yep! As for the flag, it beats me. I’ll probably have to update the plugin again.
@Tormod Haugen – nope on #2 and #10.
Matt` yes on #4 and no on #20. :)
So… the latest tally is everything but 5, 6, 14, 18 and 20…
1. Run, Lola, Run

@Petr: You are correct sir! Also #6 is Primer – @Mats Rauhala guessed it. Also you were right – #18 is Fight Club. :)
So we are only missing 5, 14 and 20 all of which are foreign movies.
1. Lola Rennt
2. [Rec]
3. Memento
9. Farscape
15. Lost
I don’t watch a lot of movies ;) Also, you have now had Farscape in every quiz :P
@freelancer: Yup, I did, didn’t I? I guess you just never stop being a Scaper. ;)
20. City of Lost Children or 12 Monkeys?
just seems like Carot and Jeunet or Gilliam…..
@feeshy: It is City of Lost Children. Good catch. :)
I believe #5 is Ergo Proxy
@Vurlix: You got it!
Is 14 Battle Royale?
I definitely thought #2 was the paris hilton video…
@for_a_memory: Yes! Good job! Game complete! Wohoo!
@Dave: LOL! Nope, it’s [Rec], but LOL.
Boo! I love it when you do these Luke, but some silly hurricane had to go and take my power for 6 days. Guess I’ll get the next one.
I must say, this one is a bit harder than the previous ones. Very fun though.
14 is that chinese movie or japenese movie battle royal or something like that right?
