The movie frame game 20:20

Djscman · 2011-11-22T21:36:00.000Z

I push printscreen, copy into a new Paint.net file, crop out any black bars , reduce size to taste, upload it to Flickr, then wait a few months before I guess the right movie.

Anyone have a good method of taking a screenshot from a Blu-ray player (especially a PS3) and transferring it back to a PC?

Have at it:

Isn’t the building in 60:60 some sort of LA landmark? I’m pretty sure Jackie Chan had a setpiece there in Rush Hour.

It’s the Los Angeles Convention Center, downtown. It’s famous to denizens of Qt3 as the site of E3 for most of the past 10+ years.

It’s been nearly 23 hours, guys! One more, and I’m putting up the 40:40.

Omniscia · 2011-11-24T18:25:10.000Z

Right, it’s been more than 24 hours now…

“Starring” Deborah Kerr, David Niven, Woody Allen and a bunch of other people looking for a paycheck.

Omniscia · 2011-11-24T18:41:19.000Z

Correct.

But with only two posts, you’re going to have to get mighty creative in linking your images. Or just PM the links to someone (like me) who can put them up for you.

Simonout · 2011-11-24T18:53:33.000Z

OK, I’ll PM the caps tomorrow. I have some research to do…

Simonout · 2011-11-25T02:13:40.000Z

Would anyone else like to volunteer?

Sorry to interrupt, I didn’t realise that I wouldn’t be able to post the links to the images until I have 50 posts.

My bad.

just post it with spaces instead of dots (like http www whatever) and we’ll turn that into a link for you

I think that it’s an easy one, but one of my favourite films.

Jasper_Phillips · 2011-11-25T18:38:42.000Z

And it’s Spirited Away. One of my favorite movies too, and very distinctive.

I won’t be able to get to my pick until tomorrow evening though, so if somebody else is waiting anxiously in the wings feel free to take my place.

Omniscia · 2011-11-25T18:51:41.000Z

Wrong. It’s Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi.

Jasper_Phillips · 2011-11-26T00:05:17.000Z

Damn, forgot my monocle, so I guess it’s your pick. ;-)

Omniscia · 2011-11-26T07:28:46.000Z

Just being pedantic. 'Tis the season.

Djscman · 2011-11-26T09:09:38.000Z

I’ll go! Me! Me!

It’s probably one of those movies where if you’ve seen it, you know it, and if you haven’t, you won’t.

I Am a Fugitive From a Chain Gang?

Nope.

LionelThompson · 2011-11-27T07:08:37.000Z

On the Waterfront, despite the lack of Brando, Malden, and well, docks?

TimElhajj · 2011-11-27T12:04:47.000Z

Angels with Dirty Faces. I know I’ve seen that scene. Those are convicts making license plates and that’s a bull walking among the prisoners.
