Updated Rules:

 

-You can only ask yes or no questions

-Discussion in the thread is encouraged, but any question in the thread will be treated as one of the yes/no questions so be careful

-The use of lists is acceptable, but may not contain more than 21 movies

-If you think you know the movie, it must be addressed before you run out of questions

-Anyone can participate

-If a yes/no answer has not been given by the person that knows the answer, posts can be changed to update the question

-Answers relevant to the movie will come from IMDB

 

Ummm... so lets get going.

 

If you have never played before here is how it goes.

 

I have a movie in mind.  You don't know what it is.  You have 21 yes/no questions to try and figure out what this movie is.  When you fail to guess my movie, I will taunt you and maybe do a little dance.  Oh this is a movie that has already come out...  I would not pick a movie in production or hasn't been released yet.

1. Was it first released after December 31, 1979? Yes

2. Is it horror, sci-fi, or comedy genre? Yes

3. Was the movie released direct-to-dvd? No

We're only on question seven, and we already know it's a scifi flick released in the 90s. That's not too bad.

 

8. Was it released after Dec 31, 1994?

9. Did gross over 30 million at the box office?

Posted

10. Is it's IMDB rating higher than or equal to 5.0/10? Yes

11. Was it released after Dec 31, 1997? Erm, Yes.

12. Does the title, as listed on IMDB, have more than two words? Nope.

 

Only 9 questions left.  I am dying to give hints, but I want to stump you guys.

"Erm, yes"??  That's not the same as a regular yes. Dammit.

 

Hm, I didn't ask if it was "first" released after Dec 31, 1997, which might lead to his complicated answer. Although I didn't ask if it was "first" released after Dec 31, 1994, either, and all he said was Yes.

 

If someone thinks those should be asked again properly, go ahead and do it.

Your time ones have a few narrowed down for me, Cads.  It's easier for me since the time frame was right around me graduating high school and starting college.

 

I do have one in particular in mind, hens my previous question.  It will clear things up nicely.

 

*edit*  Just going to throw in my next question since I'll be offline for a day or so.

 

14. Is it The Matrix?

Posted

Erm, Yes because that question is tricky.  Not couting film festivals, the answer is yes.  How about that.

 

13. Is it written and directed by brothers? Nope

14. Is it The Matrix? And... Nope. *g*

 

This might lead to my downfall, but I would like to point out that imdb lists more than one genre sometimes....

Very good chance its this.

Its got a rating of 7.5/10

and most likely didn't gross over 30mil. :P

 

Of course this is basing it on the hint that its both sci-fi and horror. But it 'could' be a thriller to. He could just be saying this also to throw us off the mark!

 

btw, lookin through IMDB, there are a LOT of tv series, AND Porn. ;)

 

we also have... on the sci-horror listings

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118583/ (another really strong possibility)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139033/

 

Anyways that isn't a complete list, I don't have time to do one now... and If someone has the premium version of IMDB they can do it in about 5 minutes. ;)

 

I'd try to clarify if horror & sci-fi are its generes 'only', WE know it is definately a sci-fi but it could be a horror/thriller.

Theres a few other movies I think it might be, but I can't recall what they are named, but I'm positive they came out in the late 90's.

Theres that one with george clooney, space ship, seeing his dead wife.

Then theres the movie Sphere, It might be a thriller and not a 'horror', but I'm pretty sure it came out around 96'.

Another movie, has to deal with 'space travel', FTL travel, and using the principle of 'worm holes' to achieve it. The only problem is, they opened a 'hole directly into hell. ;)

 

oh, and Hell Raiser, I KNOW they had a space one, and they released before 2000!
