π₯ StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #2347 [nyctc7 dominates the fray with BOTTOMS]
I would have started this round sooner, but busy weekend and all. Anyway, here's a top pick...
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.
Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie and Video. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.
- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints and 15 incorrect guesses the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 IMDB votes. Otherwise, add a bonus hint. No documentaries.
- Maximum 2 guesses per player per hint.
- Can't edit a guess once posted. Delete ONLY
- Post one Hint at a time.

Let's get it on!
Hint 1: The Terminator (1984) - MPA rated R.
Hint 2: Silent Night (2023) - Same year!
Hint 3: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) - Comedy.
Hint 4: May December (2023) - Female protagonist.
Hint 5: Totally Killer (2023) - IMDB user rating is swimming in the 6s.
Hint 6: No Hard Feelings (2023) - Director has writing credit.
Hint 7: Quiz Lady (2023) - New Orleans filming locations in common.
With a one-two punch nyctc7 lands the knockout blow with Bottoms (2023), an absurdist-skewing twist on what might have been a formulaic high school comedy in past decades. There are shades of Naked Gun/Police Squad with this movie's variety of different humor types - from stinging lines to broad slapstick to razor sharp editing to background sight gags. Also, despite the Academy's resistance towards lighter fare, A strong case can be made for a Best Supporting Actor nod for Marshawn Lynch. As far as the year of 2023 in film goes, Bottoms ranks high.
