[Kasatka]

Vanishing point, but it was remade in 1997, so yeah.....

Aggregation time!

Vanishing point, but it was remade in 1997, so yeah.....

I also don't remember him having to take the drugs merely that he made a bet with the dealer to get the drugs. Either way fairly sure Kat is correct on that one

If hes not then I have no idea.

 

[Kasatka]

I had to trawl a LOT of lists to find Vanishing point, but once i saw it it kind of knew it had to be it. If it's not, i may have to commit seppuku....

 

[Pwnstar]

Vanishing point, but it was remade in 1997, so yeah.....

Bingo, and i thought the remake was 2003 with Viggo Mortensen?

 

[Kasatka]

Not according to the interwebs... Awesome, i shall return once i have a film ready

 

[Kasatka]

8: Ronin Storm
7:
6:
5: Solemn, Xylak

2: Chuchu, BiG_D, Panda,
1: elDiablo, Wol, Iron Fist, PeePee, thatbloke, comrade_phil, Pwnstar, Kasatka


Okay, clue time:
A group of scientists have a run in with some foreigners who then leave, but one of them joins the scientists and conflict ensues.

 

[Xylak]

Jurassic Park?

/total stab in the dark, haven't got a clue guess

 

[Peepee]

Its Bloddy Avatar!

 

[Ronin Storm]

Its Bloddy Avatar!

Yeah, I'd second Avatar.

 

[Peepee]

Yeah, I'd second Avatar.

If Ronin agrees I am feeling pretty confident

 

[Solemn]

If Ronin agrees I am feeling pretty confident

Yup Avatar fits perfectly! Nice one

 

[Peepee]

The suspence of actually being right is killing me though

 

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

Yeah, I'd second Avatar.

Doesn't fit to me. Though ive no better idea. Foreigners. GL anyhoo.

 

[Huung]

But in Avatar a scientist joins the foreigners... so it's the reverse

Still, I have no actual guess

 

[Kasatka]

Jurassic Park?

/total stab in the dark, haven't got a clue guess

Nope

Its Bloddy Avatar!

Nope

Time for another clue:
The scientists are researching in a cold place, but something soon boils their blood.

 

[Ronin Storm]

Ah, as Huung pointed out, it was the wrong way around. I'll read properly next time.

Let's try:

The Thing

 

[Kasatka]

Ah, as Huung pointed out, it was the wrong way around. I'll read properly next time.

Let's try:

The Thing

And we have a winner. I thought i'd be cryptic still, but also test to see if we had any other hardcore fans out there. My next clue would have been "one of the characters have a penchant for chess and whiskey, which don't always mix well."

Scores are now:

9: Ronin Storm
8:
7:
6:
5: Solemn, Xylak
4: Huung
3: silkth, Zooggy, DocBot, waterproofbob, Ki!ler-Mk1
