Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
I'd already downloaded a few pictures. This seems to be working. (Thanks for the link, Isg.)
Since I haven't followed the thread religiously, I did a quick search, and it looks like this hasn't been done. At least not recently.

Twister?
I spent 90% of the money I made on women, booze, and drugs. The other 10% I just pissed away.

Nope.
But I am happy to see that I didn't break the game.
I have a couple more (possibly telling) screenshots that I can put up. Or hints. But I didn't want to rush those out. If these aren't working for anyone, then I can add some.

Looks like something Lodge Kerrigan would have shot. Still... not a clue.
Today I will gladly share my experience and advice, for there are no sweeter words than "I told you so."

KNOW someone in OO knows it. This is one of my favorite threads and one of my first posts was in here too. Seems like a late 80's early 90's type film. Maybe a spooky one?
I honestly don't know it but am I on track with my guesses TheMix?

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
I'd have to check the date. And not really spooky. More contemplative.
One more then. I figured it'd be easy for this crowd.

I'm fairly positive that I will need pics 2-10 as well as hints 1-4.
I want to pretend that it looks familiar, but I think I'm just telling myself that to make me feel better.

If so, I pass my turn to someone else who has one. Just wanted to take a stab at this one.

Yeah, work blocks some images and all I saw was a the last pic (which you have to admit looks like Gandalf on the top of Orthanc).

The Rock?
Only because that second pic kind of looks like Sean Connery at the beginning. And there were soldiers in that movie... and probably repelling. But I got nothing on the first pic.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
How do you guys make it look so easy? First choice went belly-up. Couldn't find any pictures that wouldn't give it away in a second.
Finally had to go with a recently watched movie. Anything too old and I can't remember enough about the movie to decide on the appropriate scene.
So here you go...

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
I would pic a movie, then try to find the most obscure screenshot that still tied into the movie in some way. While a shot of a blue sky might stump people, it's not quite in the spirit of the game. For the record mine have all been guessed within 2 or 3 tries at most. I'm not exactly a film historian.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
That's pretty much what I went with. Though, I did have to resort to movies I've watched recently. I find with the older ones I sometimes can't remember them well enough to tell whether the picture is a "good" one.
And now I apparently need to grab another pic. Luckily enough I was smart enough to download a bunch in preparation... to my home pc.
Aha! A character reveal:

If this doesn't do it, I have a couple more character shots ready to go. Good luck!

I had a vague idea by the other shots but this one killed whatever I thought it could be.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Doesn't hurt to guess based on one pic. I basically did that with The Rock. Sometimes the other pic/pics are just from a part of the movie you tuned out.

Apparently I have made it too hard (or it's Friday). I was going to wait for another guess or two before posting another pic, but I don't want the thread to stall.

Would it help if you knew who "Blue Slime Girl" is? That she's actually a normal girl in a bathtub and with lighting that make her look bluish and slimey-ish?
In appreciation of your attempt, here she is in a better light (though the lighting, angle, and distance may still make her a bit tough to make out):
