Would Persepolis count? Although produced in France, it is very much an Iranian movie. If it does count, the next question is:
Favorite animated movie that tries something different from classic western animation/japanese animation/cgi (hard to nail down, something like Persepolis, A Scanner Darkly, Renaissance)?

Lochmonster, come back, I was only kidding!
Deep Blue Sea is the one with LL Cool J and super-smart sharks, right? That movie ruled!
I would've answered Persepolis, too.
As for Sissyl's question:
I don't know about "would not under any circumstances see again," but I have little desire to ever see Snakes on a Plane again, but, opening night, with the hawt chick from the comic book store (and her friends, Geraint, we are all one under the sun), baked out of my mind on college-kid headies, yeah, I loved it.
Favorite Samuel L. Jackson role that isn't Snakes on a Plane or Deep Blue Sea?

I'll let it pass, but I'd probably describe Persepolis as a French film of an Iranian graphic-novel... or something.
Iranian film is a big deal with respected directors like Kiarostami
A Separation won the best foreign film oscar last year.
I would recommend Ten.

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein
Vincent Price was the uncredited voice of the invisible man for 10 seconds at the end of the movie. That does not meet Mad Badger's criteria.

You mean this this Richard Burton!
Brilliant bloke.
A: Look Back in Anger.
Q: Favourite kitchen-sink film?

Favourite kitchen-sink film: Tough choice, but I'll probably go with The Navigators (had to check for the English title).
And I liked Geraint's question, so I'll steal it.

The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner
Favorite other movie with Tom Courtenay?

Geraint, in this video, British people can be seen going to the movies on a date. What's up with that?

I'd be tempted to say The Ten Commandments, but I think we have a kind of informal no-tap-backs rule in this game. Disney's Hercules is great, but he's not really IN the movie - just a short (but highly amusing) voice-over right at the beginning. So...
True Lies it is!
Favorite movie with Tom Arnold other than the above?

Since that video was locked for me I'm choosing to believe the dates are all sheep (and that it was shot cinema verite style somewhere in Derbyshire).

I think this is the last question.
McHale's Navy
Favorite movie set in the 1950's that is not a musical.

I know this is a few questions ago, but it was already asked and answered earlier in this thread (by me actually, so NO I'm not "some guy posting for the first time").
THE COLOR OF PARADISE
Great film, Iranian Film, great story, the landscape shots alone are worth it.
Also a great Iranian film that's very political: THIS IS NOT A FILM. Was made under house arrest by a Green Movement Director. It was smuggled out of the country in a usb drive stashed in a cake (no really).

Art Brut--"Good Weekend" for those blocked by international copyright laws.
While I am flattered that you've spent weeks trawling the internet for this, I can't help but think that you need to read this.
Doodlebug Anklebiter |
Pfft.
I've got Bonzo Dog Doobah Band records, Jerome K. Jerome books and at least three Ealing comedies on videocassette. Not to mention the aforementioned Art Brut cd. I don't need no wikipage.

That's not a wiki... and you don't get a pass until you've read every single Jeeves and Wooster story, while listening to mashups of Dizzee Rascal and Queen, sipping Gin & It and dressed as a Pearly King.

My favorite stoner comedies are probably:
The Big Lebowski
Half Baked
Dazed and Confused
and a toss-up between Pineapple Express and Your Highness
I'm dreaming of a Green Christmas...

It's been since Christmas without a question so I am bogarting the thread with a movie trivia question!
Liv Tyler played Arwen in the Lord of the Rings movies. This we know. But, it just so happens that another member of her family also played an elf in a movie (yes, an actual real (and fairly successful) Hollywood in-the-theaters movie, not some made-for-TV/direct-to-video thing).
Who is it and what movie?
Answerer gets the next question.

I don't know the answer to that, but Ms. Tyler's mother, Bebe Buell, was one of the most famous (infamous?) of the seventies groupies, scoring "relationships" with, among others, Steven Tyler, Todd Rundgren and Elvis Costello.
Kate Hudson's character in Almost Famous is allegedly based on her.
