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. Examples 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.

From a melee of pinballing and body slams, Artemis9 manages to emerge the champ of this round with The Zoo Gang (1985), one of the most PG-13 movies ever made. Here we have a scrappy group of kids who just want to run a rock 'n roll pinball bar (basically a Chuck E. Cheese for teenage rapscallions) with the help of a miserable former pro wrestler named "Old Leatherface".
Let's talk about Old Leatherface. He is, essentially, an old man who made money in the pro wrestling business and bought some property but doesn't know what to do with it. Enter this kiddie gang war. This ostensibly homeless man wearing dirty gloves and a beanie on his head that looks shabby from all angles has a heart of gold - championship title belts notwithstanding. Welcome to the world of cocaine-fueled filmmaking - where a movie has to be rushed into production before the screenplay can be developed with a background story for the pro wrestler who helps the main group of kids band together. He somehow teaches them to bump and leap of high perches to attach their opponents and somehow owns wide swaths of real estate that attract enterprising developers? This gets about halfway to a coherent premise.
And still, this manages to enrapture the viewer with an air of suspense and mystery. How exactly will this scrappy crew of kids unite under the guise of their pro wrestling training to save their pinball bar from the blonde mullet kid and his goons? How many people will get their pants pulled down in retalliation?
Juvenile and twisted in equal measure, this movie wholeheartedly earns its rating of PG-13. Be sure to bring plenty of quarters and soda when watching this because it's gonna be a party!
