    I love Arnold, the guy has very low acting skills but his presence and charisma are off the charts.

    Hi,

    I need help!

    I am trying to find out the name of a film ive seen clips about.

    In it, there is a man who is trying to board a plane with drugs taped to his body, when he gets caught by armed security guards.

    Has anyone an idea what this is, its driving me mad. Im sure it was references in the systems as well!

    Thanks

    If you can find this movie it will be a miracle.

    I remember seeing part of a movie when i was a kid. must have been the guts of 18 years ago now but god knows when the movie was made.

    Remember seeing it as a kid and we recorded it as it was on too late. When we went to watch it the next day only 1/4 of the movie had recorded :(


    Themes:
    Time Travel i think
    Dinosaurs bring in the present (mainly a t-rex if i recall)
    Military

    The main scene i remember is a small group of people, a guy and two girls i think hiding behind a crate as a dinosaur comes walking through the warehouse that they are in.
    Guy is armed with an assault rifle. I cant remember if he started shooting or not.
    There is very little else about this movie i remember

    I know its very little to go on but ive been on and off looking for this movie for years.

    thought id bring this back as noone found it the first time. anyone have any ideas.

    One of the greatest films ever made. Lead died of HIV few years later. I remember his mother on Oprah.

    Have you seen The Cable Guy?

    If so - then you most likely laughed at this clip but had you of seen Midnight Express you would have bent in two laughing ten times harder :D

    ya its too new but the look of the movie is very similar to what i remember with the military aspect.

    I saw this movie in the early 80's.
    It was a fantasy adventure movie set in some forested european country in pre-Industrial times. All I can remember is a scene where the hero is persuaded to throw his weapons up into the sky for no particular reason. They disappear by the strenght of his throw and he carries on with his travels. A long time later he finds himself back in the exact same spot being attacked and his weapons (clubs, i think) fall out of the sky and knock his attackers out.
    Any ideas?

    While I am at it...
    A black and white movie, I think, about a group of guys who continue to meet in a bar or cafe every few years after serving in the war (WW2?) together and its just about the changes in their lives.
    ????

    If it's that they decide to meet up to play Golf every year after the war then it's Boys Of Sunset Ridge.

    Nope. No golfing, just chatting in a bar. It was an old movie - 50's probably.

    Had a read of the previous posts but I'm afraid I can't help with any identification. I do have a film I'm trying to trace of my own though.

    It's an old film, colour, possibly made in the 50's or maybe 60's America. All I remember is it's about a sniper and I remember the last scene involves him taking out people on the highway from a hill (I think) and taking out people in their cars at a drive thu movie theatre, he's shooting from the screen. I wanted to remember it because the I remember the footage of the sniper scope while aiming at the people driving was really well done and I'd like to see it again.

    Thanks chums!
