Simple as that.

Be the first to name the Movie, get a point. And then pick the cover for the next person to guess.

Make sure you erase any evidence of the movie name or actor/actress names from the cover if it is on there. And don't save it with the name in the url. Text on the poster is acceptable and preferred, unless it's an obvious give away. (for instance "there's no place like home" should stay on but "dorothy finds herself in Oz" should not)

Please, no obscure movies. If it only played at the sundance festival don't post it. Straight to dvd? Don't post it. If you want to impress us with the obscure movies you know about, make a new thread where you recommend s**t or something.

Make sure that you are picking movies that most people have heard of or seen. Or even half of the people have heard of or seen. Using your best judgement, of course. Failure to comply with this simple rule will result in a loss of a point for each infraction

If the movie is not guessed in 12 hours, a new one needs to be posted (preferably by the original person, but if that person is unavailable another momvie will be posted for them). This rule is to keep the thread alive.

Thank you and have fun. First up...

Cleopatra

nope. sorry. This was one of the alternate posters for the movie when it came out. to my knowledge it was actually posted and stuff, it's just not the main one. (the main one would have been a dead give away)

Ben Hur

Ben Hur

I thought it worth repeating

You were right both times.

Sweeeeeet. Do I get two points?

Bio Dome

CliffHanger

Fletch Lives

North Dallas Forty

Cube

I wouldn't have thought that would be so difficult for the British contingent here, I'll poke around for another for 30-60 mins, unless someone wants to post the answer and/or their own poster.

It was the original italian job,

Hopefully this should be a little easier.

Trainspotting

(And curiously I've only ever seen the red, white and blue Italian Job posters but there it is on the IMDB page)

Next up.

Vertigo

Yep.

Looks a lot like Obama. Did he make any movies?

Is the title "Change" by any chance?

Haha, no
