Modern Vespa

Great save! It's all yours! Wonderful to have a new player.

Coolies! Then I resubmit:

Excellent!!



And I'm kinda tied up, but if that completely classic clue above is what I think it is,
that cop's about to get vaporized when he opens the trunk

that would be Repo Man,

a 1984 cult film directed by Alex Cox with Emilio Estevez, Harry Dean Stanton and Fox Harris.

Ok, so this Texas town was not only the last place the great inspirational coach Bobby Knight worked (who's words chicagoscooterclub kindly shared with me which helped guide me to my second place tie victory in their Scooter Photoshop Contest.


But is also the home to this world-renowned center for Texas Music and contemporary visual arts. It is named after a famed singer-songwriter who was born there and died in a plane crash.

Although he was initially influenced by bluegrass music, he turned to rock music after seeing Elvis Presley sing live in his hometown in 1955

He was best known for his eye-ware and his song about a girl with two first names.

The town is Lubbock, Texas. Musician is Buddy Holly.

This image has surprisingly little to do with Tuna or Texas. It does, however, owe a lot to the Wizard.

Wild at Heart.

Speaking of which....

well that would be David Lynch's Blue Velvet with Isabella Rossellini.

well Blue Velvet was a movie that drop the "f" bomb a few times.




But as I remember this 1995 American neo-noir film that I caught yesterday morning on amc has to have been an award winner in the "f" bomb category.

But being it was on amc, well it was a little more PG.

(but it's such a great film, I love the ending, think I may have to rent it this week)

Anyway to find this tag you'll need the name of this actor's character.

Kevin Spacey as Verbal Kimpt in The Usual Suspects. Yeah...that would be an interesting film to watch again.

For some reason...and I'm not going to stop to analyze...there was something about the last tag that made me think of this gentleman. I loved this movie. Perfect marriage of an actor to a role.

that would be,

Léon (also known as The Professional and Léon: The Professional) with Jean Reno.
(yeah need to add this one to the list for this week)

Well I can see the connection.

I'll take foreign psycho killers for $500 Alex.


But you know if you have one you have to have the other.

Well done! Free analysis services on top of your other many skills!

Think I need to recuse myself on this one.

well if you do, I'll have to play (fill in the blank) myself.

Love that movie. Gary Oldman is SO skeevy-gross in it, though!

Oh, OK. Natalie Portman. (Really, it was too easy.)

Now the connection here is the role of our friend Jean Reno. But not nearly as nice and benign this time.

Oh, well also pretty women with lots of fire power!

that would be,

Nikita aka La Femme Nikita in some countries.

maybe for you.

Yeah now that's more like it.

And speaking of women with lots of "fire power"

(hint forget using her name, just the name of the film and add movie)

Pam Anderson in Barb Wire.

(But on the last tag: I simply love what you've done with the room!)

More fire power....

that would be

Carrie-Anne Moss in Matrix Reloaded

red bike and black leather,

almost my favorite color scheme

and speaking of fire power and color,

That would be UltraViolet, played by Milla Jovovich.

Keeping with the Assassin movie theme :

They may have called it "The Big Hit" but it wasn't a big hit. Worry about movies in which the lead character has buddies named Cisco, Crunch and Vince.

And yeah, they do look like the Spice Boys! The only way I found it was by recognizing Lou Diamond Phillips and searching from there.

Let's see....what can we say about this next film? Scotland without the kilts? Mad Max without the outback?

Yeah, it's off topic. But I found it on the way to other, better tags so here it is.

that would be Doomsday

Well i was going for the third guy on from the left.

I found him.

And no he was never a Spice Boy, he was too funky for that.

Marky Mark, aka Mark Wahlburg.

There was just something about the "pecs ahoy" nature of the Wahlburg underwear shoot that reminded me of the popular MTV video these guys had in the early '90s. It was also featured later on MTV's Pop-up Video. Pretty good for three blokes from East Grinstead...too right?

P.S. There are clues here that will help you find this group. Once you have the group name you should be able to find the image, though I note it appears farther down in GIS than before - page 4 - but if you add the title of their big hit the image will appear on page 2 of GIS.

that would be Right Said Fred

well the "Big Hit" may have not been that for one of our last tags,

But this movie was and in more was then one.


:wink

so have I "officially" killed this thread?

'Fraid so.

I know the movie.

I know the character's name.

I know it's THE "final scene".

The problem is that I can't get anything out of those three combos via GIS, in the first three pages.
