Actually, JB's clue wasn't really cryptic at all, for this movie. I haven't even seen "The Box" (a fairly recent movie), but I knew the plotline: a couple gets a box with a button on it. Push the button and you get a million dollars, but someone you don't know dies. (Maybe it's a kid, maybe it's someone on his deathbed. Maybe it's a horrible felon, maybe it's the President -- oops--no difference ;) ) Maybe you're the person who dies when someone else gets the box. I don't know how the movie ends. The problem is, this clue was pretty much a straightforward description of the plot. Trefor's clues tend to be pretty straightforward, also,except that he uses a lot of big words to obfuscate it a bit. That's really not the thrust of this thread. Look at the first post. A woman in a new location kills the first person she comes across, then teams with three strangers to kill again. Dorothy's "killing spree" isn't really what "The Wisard of Oz" is about, but it IS what happens. No clue about wizards or witches or winding roads. I tried to do this with my "Patton" clue. Not about his winning warfare, just his inability to keep his mouth shut. I'm going to re-tread one I did a couple of years ago (because I'm out of fresh ideas). Assuming you haven't read all my posts in this thread, try this: A domestic servant starts a riot and gets her boss fired. George

Here's a hint: It's not "The Lightning Bagels." :lol: George

Well, it's my name... I think I was "Lantrn" at WayDale. Coolest comic book character, ever. George

So, what's the problem? You just Google-map it on your Blackberry, and off you go! Oh, wait...this was WHEN? George

Have you got the right thread? These are song lyrics. George

Sounds like "The Box." George

I guess it's remarkable that MORE catastrophic incidents didn't occur. :( George

"Listen, just for a minute how about we stop pretending that I'm brilliant and you're simple!" "I see he's Italian and we Italians have got to stick together." "I worry. I mean, little things bother me. I'm a worrier. I mean, little insignificant details - I lose my appetite. I can't eat. My wife, she says to me, 'You know, you can really be pain.'" George

The Beverly Hillbillies called their pool the "SEE-ment pond," so I'll try that show. George

I can hear that first line in my head, but I can't "hear" any further. George

Like to tell you 'bout my baby, you know she comes around... George I won't be around for a day ot so, so if you know it, don't wait for confirmation.

"Killer Queen"? George

No idea. And there probably aren't that many movies featuring a Conrad, a Ginny, and a Marcellus! George

"The ship appears to be run by computer. It is the only thing that is speaking." "Speaking? Let me hear it." "9-8-7-6-5..." "Get out! Get out of there! Get out!" George

I don't know why, either. Here's some more: Three thirty in the morning, Not a soul in sight, The city's lookin' like a ghost town On a moonless summer night. Raindrops on the windshield, There's a storm moving in. He's headin' back from somewhere That he never should have been. And ----------. And ----------. Every light is burnin' In a house across town. She's pacin' by the telephone In her faded flannel gown. Askin' for a miracle, Hopin' she's not right, Prayin' it's the weather That's kept him out all night. And ----------. And ----------. ---------- And the lightnin' strikes Another love grows cold On a sleepless night As the storm blows on Out of control Deep in her heart ---------- George

No, that's Lex Luthor from one of the Superman movies. The first one, I think. George

"Tracy, it's Phil." "Phil, where the hell are you guys?" "Listen, we f---ed up. We lost Doug." "What? We're getting married in five hours." "Yeah... that's not gonna happen." "Hey, this is Phil. Leave me a message, or don't, but do me a favor: don't text me, it's gay." George

From the other "flick" thread, I'd guess "The Santa Clause." George
