I vote Goat is disqualified for quintuple posting

[Swatopluk]

Goat got the year right for #1 (1912) but not yet the title and director (it's on wikipedia)
What is looked for is a full-length movie, not an actuality.

Fully correct are:  #4,6,18,20
Essentially correct #3 (not 2). I was looking for the selective colorizing of a b/w movie, the little girl in the red coat in particular.

11) "Snakes on a Plane". I think I remember hearing Jackson say on The Daily Show that he wanted in just because of the title.

[Bruder Cuzzen]

#1 " The Poseidon Adventure " , " Voyage of the Neptune" , " The Unsinkable Molly Brown " ? Un Nacht und Eis ? 1912 , unnamed German director ?...Mime Misu .

Regarding Porter/Spielberg (#3): In Schindler's List a little girl can be seen during the German attack on the Warsaw Ghetto with a coat colorized pink/red. The same coat can later be seen when the mass graves are opened and the corpses burned. In Porter's Great Train Robbery the gagged station master is found and freed by a little girl whose coat is colorized pink/red.

[anthrobabe]

I knew it was a Holocaust movie with the little girls coat--- I've seen both more than once too- I've never seen that Great Train Robbery-- I think I'll have to get it on NetFlix.

I am determined to get something 'correct' around here.

so we still have #2, #10,#12, #16--
