🎥 StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #2375 [tcrum finds the winning ingredient with WILD MOUNTAIN THYME]


The corned beef and cabbage are simmering atop the stove, so while that's cooking maybe we can get a little fun stewing. Best of luck!

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!

The lucky charms are bestowed upon tcrum for plucking out Wild Mountain Thyme (2020) as this round's popcorn pick!

Written and directed by Oscar-winner John Patrick Shanley (Moonstruck, Robot in the Family), this is one of those wild swings that works due to its sheer audacity. That's part and parcel with the material, though. You cannot have a story of pining star-crossed romance without stretching disbelief here and there, and fortunately this movie delivers that incredulity in spades. I won't even begin to describe what Christopher Walken is doing. We need more movies like this.

Currently available to stream on Hulu.

Hint 1: Waking Ned Divine (1998) - Ireland.
Hint 2: 48 Hrs. (1982) - Comedy.
Hint 3: The Quiet Man (1952) - Director has writing credit.
Hint 4: Flora and Son (2023) - Romance.
Hint 5: The Guard (2011) - 21st century film.
