Q: When did Rocky Balboa fight a horse?

Hack-RI am trying to find a film or television show I vaugely remember wherein Rocky Balboa fought a horse. It may have been a sequel, parody, or spinoff of Rocky wherein this happened. I believe I watched this in the late 1990's or early 00's. YouTube does not seem to bring it up. I definitely remem...

Q: Why are the asylum guards wearing cages on their heads?

sanpacoIn Dracula (1992), in the scenes in the asylum where Renfield is being held, the guards can be seen wearing cages on their heads. Why? Was this a normal practice? I have heard of head cages for inmates but not guards. I'm not sure what the purpose would have been other than protection, but give t...

Q: Help me find this movie! (drama)

Binh An Nguyen CuuSo I saw this movie when I was really young and only remember one part of it (I think it was the end). There's this man in his 50s and a young girl about 10 or 13 (I'm assuming they're father/daughter). They are alone in a new house that isn't theirs but I guess they're poor so they just decided...

Q: Movie about encountering blue alien

ashura91I watched this movie around early 2000's. It's in English. There are a group of people researching something (not really sure maybe a fallen object from space) in the ocean. They sent some kind of robot to investigate it. But they failed because water pressure destroy the robot. Another scene I ...

Q: Scifi in a tube transporter

Thierry AndreoI'm looking for the name of a seventies US sci-fi show where a team of police I think, but not sure, is travelling around the world in a Kind of magnetic wagon, moving inside a never ending tube. Any idea? Thanks.

@AnkitSharma HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
 
@steelerfan Same to u
 
@AnkitSharma Hey...nice pic!!
 
Anyway what are you becoming on Halloween
@steelerfan lol
 
@AnkitSharma I don't know yet. I need to go to my sister's and raid her costumes. I was going to dress as a female devil, but my sister's costume isn't really the best to be around kids and it's uncomfortable. Halloween kinda snuck up on me this year. I'm so not prepared for it :(
 
ohhh
I just declined Halloween party as I expected it to be bit boring
 
3:10 PM
Awwww.
Well, you can always make it exciting!!
 
I was not into the mood either
Stomach was upset too
Needed rest
 
Awww. I'm sorry :'(
 
Tomorrow Is bhai Dooj, so I have to go to sister's place again
Needed this much rest
 
Oh my
 
Too much festivals in this week
 
3:13 PM
Festivals? FUN!!!
 
I have mixed feelings for them
 
@NapoleonWilson Where are you? Are you here?
 
@steelerfan Yes.
 
@NapoleonWilson How are you?
 
@steelerfan I'm fine, vacation! \o/
 
3:18 PM
Hmm @NapoleonWilson replies quickly when @steelerfan pings him., while others have to wait. :P
 
@NapoleonWilson ...AND HALLOWEEN!!!!
 
@steelerfan Happy Halloween, scary little squirrel! ;-)
 
@AbhishekAggrawal Hehe! It's because I'm awesome :P
@NapoleonWilson You better reply to @AbhishekAggrawal's pings already, Napoleon!! What's wrong with you? ;)
 
@steelerfan What's to reply to? Did I miss something?
 
@NapoleonWilson I have no idea. I was just repeating what he said ;)
 
3:22 PM
My Point Is Proved.
 
@NapoleonWilson ^^
See.
 
@AbhishekAggrawal Did I miss a ping from you?
 
5 mins ago, by Abhishek Aggrawal
Hmm @NapoleonWilson replies quickly when @steelerfan pings him., while others have to wait. :P
 
@AbhishekAggrawal But what's there to respond to? You haven't even adressed me. ;-)
 
@NapoleonWilson Do you guys celebrate Halloween in Germany?
 
3:25 PM
@AnkitSharma Not that extensively and definitely not traditionally. It has only increased lately due to American cultural influences.
 
K, same like here then
R u going to any Halloween party ?
 
We Americans tend to influence Germans quite extensively :P
 
@AnkitSharma No, not at all.
 
Yeah we can see that. :P
@AnkitSharma Our neighbors are firing crackers too much.
 
@AbhishekAggrawal I just don't like crakers, waste of money
 
3:28 PM
@AbhishekAggrawal Awww. If it makes you feel any better, Napoleon ignores me sometimes, too ;)
 
@AnkitSharma We just fire for fun, but not that much.
 
@steelerfan lol
 
Hehe!
 
@AnkitSharma They just burned 10k INR for just crackers. Not to mention all that smoke and pollution.
 
Well, I'm outta here. I'm a busy little squirrel today. See you guys :)
 
3:32 PM
@AbhishekAggrawal dumb people
@steelerfan bye
 
@steelerfan See ya. Enjoy Halloween:
 
@steelerfan Have fun! Enjoy your Halloweens!
 
I WILL ENJOY HALLOWEEN!!! WOOHOOOO!!!
 
Hmm any entry from ToW?
 
@NapoleonWilson I will call you later :)
 
3:34 PM
@steelerfan Sure.
 
There is one question from ToW with +1.
 
@AnkitSharma Is there any shortcut for capitalizing letters while editing a post?
 
I don't know
I use mysql sometime when I have to remove ALLCAPS during office time
 
Let's ask @NapoleonWilson
 
3:40 PM
@AbhishekAggrawal In which way?
 
@NapoleonWilson Like when a user uses "i" instead of "I" multiple times in a post, then deleting it and using Shift+i to fix it seems heavy work.
 
Hmm, I don't know of an easier workaround for that, though.

That's a lot of small Is.
@NapoleonWilson Can we have a feature request?
 
I used to do the same mistake but mostly in chat
 
@AnkitSharma I had practice, so my fingers go for Shift+i always.
even against my will.
 
3:46 PM
k#
 
@AbhishekAggrawal Meh. I don't care at all, nor do I think that's the responsibility of SE. But if you think it's worth a feature request, feel free to ask it on Meta Stack Exchange.
 
3:57 PM
@NapoleonWilson I could ask if they can provide a shortcut key for such case. However, after thinking for a while, having a shortcut key for changing case of letters wouldn't make it easier. For eg., selecting a letter and then firing short key, which of course include ctrl or shift, requires almost equal efforts to selecting "i" and then pressing Shift+i.
Also I changed my mind after seeing questions with -20 votes.

Ufff so should I watch revenge of the nerds or watch Horror/Halloween film O.o

Q: A Women Being Eaten By Vampire With Bat Wings?

Ryan BlountI have been looking for this clip of a film or tv show. It looks like it might take place in the 90's or 2000's in an RV. A man and woman look like they're going to have sex. She is in her underwear and she says "Don't you want me." Then the man has bat-wings come out of him and it covers aro...

Q: Please help identify this animated short film

Charles GhisleniI cannot for the life of me find one of my favourite (albeit depressing) animated shorts. The film features a cat wondering an abandoned (burnt out) mansion, and imagining the building when it was still full of warmth and life. The film ends with the cat fading away like one of the memories it j...

 
6:03 PM
Oh, I didn't know Edward Zwick was directing the new Jack Reacher.
 
Man, it's the last day of October and I've watched one horror movie. :(
 
Which one?
 
Interview with the Vampire.
 
Hmm, is that even to be called "horror"?
 
Per Wikipedia: "Interview with the Vampire is a 1994 American drama horror film directed by Neil Jordan, based on the 1976 novel Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice, and starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt."
 
6:12 PM
Hmm, okay. I wasn't scared a single time, though.
But well, vampires, I guess. I'm sure Twilight counts as horror romance, too. ;-)
 
Well Anne Rice does love her super foppish vampires....
I feel the movie holds up pretty well over 20 years later. The set and costume design are great, but it's the absurd acting of both Cruise and Pitt that doesn't quite hold up with what we've seen from them in years since, or hell even before it.
 
It's a really nice film for sure.
 
I hadn't seen it in years though I own the Blu-ray. Totally forgot Christian Slater and Antonio Banderas were also in it.
I did remember that it features a very young Kirsten Dunst, though. Her acting in that movie is impressive for someone so young.

Q: Sci-Fi movie looking for name, dying lived, living died

NottocI'm trying to remember the name of a sci-fi film most likely an early to mid 80's movie. The plot is that people who were in the process of dying when the "device" was activated continue to live. And everybody else dies. The lead character of the movie is a scientist who committed suicide when t...

Q: About Detroit in Nice Guys

GomesWhat does Judith want in the movie Nice Guys? Why does she say "what is good for Detroit is good for America" ? ? She doesn't care that her daughter is dead either. What was she after?

 
I finally watched Barry Lyndon today (or finished it after watching it half two days ago), after I had it in my Blu-ray shelf for months (if not years). A really nice film (although I might have liked the first half a little better), it shouldn't have failed as much as it allegedly did.
There sure are worse and less-enticing Kubrick films than that.

Q: Movie about boy training for circus carnival act on horse?

ychirea1This was a film from the late sixties or early seventies. I thought that the star was Mark Lester. No. I thought that it was the Burt Lancaster Circus film. No. The scene that I remember most is the boy - he was handsome and blonde like the kid from Oliver. He is training and training to ride the...

Q: Movie with an inspirational scene

Juan GIt's a movie in English that I've only seen a short scene from. Within that scene is a man in a tv studio talking directly to the camera. Thus I assume he is speaking to a tv audience. He talks about how we only get 70 years of life, that's 70 summers, 70 winters etc. The speech inspires people t...

Someone asks an identification question with poor detail which is quickly voted as being Off-topic due to Identification. However, something in their poor description sparks my own memory from having seen exactly what t...

Q: Why did the story stop after The Dark Knight Rises?

David SeekI just finished seeing The Dark Knight Rises, again. And again I can't believe that they stopped the storyline there. You may like or may hate Ben Affleck as the new Batman, in a whole different storyline directed by Zack Snyder. But in my eyes, The Dark Knight Rises ended as a cliffhanger... ...

 
10:21 PM
@MetaReel Yes. You're getting downvoted for answering any ID questions.
 
@steelerfan I doubt that. You're exaggerating.
 
@NapoleonWilson Not really. I received downvotes on the last two ID questions that I answered that were correct and had all of the correct sources and info. That's not happened to me before until just recently.
 
@steelerfan Hmm, I didn't notice that, I have to say.
Sometimes bad answers might get repaired later and the downvotes might not be retracted then. But proper answers getting downvoted is something I rarely notice.
 
@NapoleonWilson It has only started happening recently. it's why I don't even like answering ID questions anymore.
 
10:26 PM
:'(
 
I see.
 
I see.
 
10:28 PM
Hmm.
 
Are you ok?
 
Are you ok?
 
Yes, I'm fine.
 
Yes, I'm fine.
 
10:30 PM
Okay.
Am I annoying you yet? ;)
 
A little maybe.
 
I'm sorry. I was just messing around :'(
 
@steelerfan I know, don't worry. ;-)
Would you please stop crying then?
 
@NapoleonWilson Yeah, I guess so.
 
Hmpf. :'(
 
10:34 PM
Well, I don't want to annoy you anymore...
 
@steelerfan You're not annoying me! Okay, what is going on right now?
 
@NapoleonWilson OMG! Nothing is going on! Stop yelling at me! ;)
 
@steelerfan I'm sorry. Sometimes I just lose track of which messages are just joking around and which aren't. If you tell me everything is alright, then I'm alright, too.
 
@NapoleonWilson Gheez. I'm sorry, okay? I'm just messing around. I will totally stop now. God...I'm sorry!
 
@steelerfan It's okay. As long as you know that I'm not annoyed by you. I just didn't know what was going on. I'm sorry.
 
10:40 PM
Okay.
 
@steelerfan Are you at your sister's yet?
 
@NapoleonWilson No.
 
@steelerfan Oh, where are you then?
 
@NapoleonWilson My office.
 
@steelerfan Wut? Why?
 
10:47 PM
@NapoleonWilson Because I have to do an IR form because I had to cut life support the other night and I left right after. It has to be completed by this evening, so, I stopped by to get it done so I don't have to come in tomorrow and do it.
 
@steelerfan Awww, I'm sorry.
When will you be driving to your sister then?
 
@NapoleonWilson I don't know in about 15 minutes. Why?
 
@steelerfan Just asking. Or maybe I thought about calling you.
 
@NapoleonWilson Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't even bring my phone in with me because I was only going to be here for about 1/2 hour.
 
Oh, okay then. Don't worry.
Oh, Bloodsport will be on TV soon. I've never seen that.
 
10:54 PM
@NapoleonWilson It's really good. Classic Van Damme.
Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds is in it, too. You haven't seen that movie yet, either.
 
Indeed.
 
Aren't you the one that doesn't like the word "nerd"?
 
@steelerfan Well, I don't seriously dislike it. But yeah, I don't really like it that much either and try to refrain from using it myself.
 
Okay.
 
It's just a bit of an overgeneralization that doesn't capture all the details of human personality and interest. But I won't throw a fit if someone else uses it either.
 
11:01 PM
Okay.
 
So I'll still try to see that movie whenever I get a chance to. ;-)
 
Okay.
 
Everything's okay, eh? ;-)
 
Sure.
 
A...are you messing again?
 
11:05 PM
Sorry. I'm kinda busy. I will talk to you later.
 
@steelerfan Really?
 
@NapoleonWilson Yes. I have to get this thing done.
 
@steelerfan Okay, good luck then. And try to make the best of Halloween still. ;-*
 
@NapoleonWilson I will. I'm leaving now.
 
@steelerfan Okay, have fun! ;-*
 
11:43 PM
@steelerfan After this conversation, you really need to watch the DW episode Midnight :-)

@steeler @Napoleon ^
 
Nice.
For someone not answering so much I wrote two really excellent answers this weekend.
 
@NapoleonWilson ;-* ;-* There you go!
@Randal'Thor Hahahaha! OMG. That is the most awesome thing I have ever seen!!!
 
@steelerfan Awww, thanks. ;-)
 
And yet no stars!
I guess you two are star-crossed lovers then ;-)
 
@Randal'Thor Well, I don't know about the star-crossed part... ;)
Muahahahaha!
 
11:57 PM
I don't even know what that means anyway.
 
@NapoleonWilson What means?
Star crossed lovers?
 
@steelerfan Nothing, I already looked it up.
 
@NapoleonWilson In this context, perhaps lovers who are too cross to bestow chat stars.
 
@NapoleonWilson I hope that you looked up "star crossed". If you had to look up "lovers". I would be worried ;)
