Action movie

Need to find who is in it, easier said than done though. Maybe go back to that list gnr had?

Maybe narrow down its current imdb rating?

Well just to be clear I never said it was or wasn’t an action movie.

Kolido

Ah sorry, live action, ok my mistake.

Hmmm...makes it more difficult.

osh

Let me know when you want any clues

quickbeam

We've only four questions left. We wanna:

Narrow down the time period it's set?
Narrow down the date it's released?
Narrow down the film genre?

Of those options, narrowing down when its set would probably be the most productive

Chancer3001

not a question...a comment only...

could it be set in outer space or something seeings as its definitely not based on a real story

osh

want a clue?

Kolido

I would take one, but lets see what the other think

quickbeam

Is it set on or after 1970?

osh

15) no

quickbeam

So, 1946-1969.

Not a question.

quickbeam

Was gonna say Dazed & Confused but that’s set in the 70s.

osh

Yeah decent guess, was thinking that fitted all the clues up to then alright. Thought maybe the oscar nomination ruled it out but maybe not.

Kolido

Not a question.

Doing a little research on wiki, there was a lord of the flies movie in 1990

quickbeam

Could ask if film is based on previously published material?

Also wondering if narrowing down the genre might help.

It’s probably gonna be .something’s no one has heard of.

Also see list of actors above that are not in it.

But ideas welcomed and encouraged.

Kolido

Maybe if we have a guess, just throw it out to everyone first as not a guess and we can decide if its valid. Thats allowed, yeah?

I'd be up for a clue though at this stage.

osh

Clue:

It's directed by a famous director, but it's one of his lesser known movies.

quickbeam

A Perfect World would fit, only it has Kevin Coster ruled out for being nominated for an Oscar in the 90s.

Kolido

One of those horror comedies by peter jackson, though the setting might not fit.

quickbeam

Just checked, Braindead fits.

I had considered Heavenly Creatures before but it’s based on a true story.

Go for it Kolido, put in the guess.
