Filmbrain's Screen Capture Quiz: Round 16, Week 14

The most popular question asked in the last seven days has been, "You own that on DVD?" My quasi-disdain for post-E.T. Steven Spielberg is no secret, and many found it odd that I should have Jurassic Park, the source of Jeff Goldblum's Michelangelo-esque pose (thanks, Will) from last week's quiz, in my collection. Well, the entire Jurassic trilogy was given to me as a gift by a well-intentioned former colleague who, when handing me the box set, said "you like movies, right?" Truth be told, I find the first of the three to be a pretty decent suspense thriller, though I've never made it through II and haven't even looked at III.

Most had no trouble identifying the film, though a few went for The Fly, which, admittedly, also had its fair share of Goldblum flesh, though I believe without the Jurassic paunch.

I received the following email today (as I'm sure many others did) and I have to say I'm tempted as I'm a sucker for a good Marilyn-Kennedy-Cuban Missile Crisis conspiracy theory. Note: [sic] for all.

After 40 years of speculation about Marilyn Monroe's death, Dr, Jack Hattem
psychologist hired for the Marilyn Monroe "suicide" investigation, has
uncovered a murder conspiracy that confirms who killed Marilyn Monroe, why
she was killed and how the Cuban Missle Crisis played a part in her death.

Dr. Hattem as well as two other sources who were involved in the
investigation would like the opportunity to discuss with you their findings
and provide FBI documentation. Please let me know of your availabiltiy so we
can schedule a discussion. With Marilyn's anniversary approaching on Aug.
the 2nd, it would be a great time to help her rest in peace.

Naturally, I want to do whatever I can to help Norma Jean's restless spirit find the peace it deserves. Still, as Freud said, sometime a missile is just a missile.

This week: Speaking of blonde conspiracies....this film has so many wonderful capture opportunities. I spent a good ninety minutes choosing between eight of them before settling on this more abstract shot. Cinephiles should guess this one in no time. Name the film. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!

Me thinks you got re-gifted.

Is that an Irwin Allen production? It's got to be an Irwin Allen production!

Whoa, head rush.

Maybe I'm getting a MA in film studies, but Jurassic Park is still my all time favorite movie...or...I just really like Jurassic Park.

The best part of the 1st Jurassic Park is the CGI. Although it was done in 1993, it looks so much more realistic than things coming out now. It's subtle, and fantastic. The other two are not as good, to say the least.

I actually prefer The Lost World over Jurassic Park. No annoying kids (well, just one), no 'majesty of nature' bull, just scares and dino slapstick.
