openFantasy movie that might not actually exist Film
Anyone aware of a fantasy film (possibly based off a book) focused on a girl who gets transported to another world wi a lot of cgi. One of the characters (her sidekick/companion I think) was a redhead boy from the other world with a pointy nose. The climax involves her arguing with her reflection (which is actually a different character who took her place in the real world) over who should get to stay in which world. The very tail-end of the movie involves her finding the real-world counterpart to the redhead boy and saying something that makes him chuckle before he just goes "....what?" Cue credits.
openOuter Space Jumanji Film Film
I remember watching a film where these two (step?)brothers, along with an older sister were staying home alone. The younger of the two boys found some space adventure board game in the basement and insisted the older one play it with him. I think the title of the game, which was the title of the movie, started with a 'Z'. As they play, elements of the game come to life, like in jumanji, such as the older sister being frozen, an astronaut showing up, and the house ending up in outer space. The boys and the astronaut finish the game after it is revealed that the astronaut is trapped in the game because he and his brother never finished playing it as kids because they were fighting over it. They complete the game and everything returns to normal, and when the parents come home, the two brothers are really close(at the beginning of the film, they hated each other). I was a kid when I watched it, which would've been early 2000s. Anyone know what it is?
openMovie about some sort of giant spider Film
So I saw part of a movie a while ago, and even though I have no real interest in watching it (being somewhat arachnophobic), I'm still curious as to what it was called. I know at least part of it took place in a jungle, and the spider itself wasn't seen much (at least in the part that I remember). There's a group that goes looking for it, and at one point, webs shoot out of the trees without the spider being seen and someone gets hit in the face. The only other thing I remember is that some researcher finds the spider's web and starts examining it, but the spider sneaks up on him (only showing the shadow). The group finds him tangled in the web later, and I think he tells them that the spider is using him as a host for baby spiders before he dies, kind of like in The Mist. I can't find it in the Giant Spider section. It might have been a Sy Fy movie, but I'm not sure.
open007 Rip-off Film Film
There was a 007-ish film I saw once. All I remember about is was during the opening credits, there was a blonde in high heels (I think) with a silver pistol and she fired it straight at the screen.
openIndy-Like Movie Film
This movie had an Indiana Jones-like character. He has a private collection of legendary artifacts in an apartment including the Fountain of Youth, and a sword that was alive, and could fight by itself. The one scene I remember was him buying a vase in an auction and destroying it so he could get a stone inside, and then got into a fight with his archenemy. Oh, and his old butler was in the Fountain for a while, as a young man, and when he stepped out of it, he reverted to his proper age.
openunknown show Film
It was a tv show like night gallery or twilight zone where it was mandatory for everyone to stay in contact with a cell phone and it was illegal to turn off your tv.
openUnknown tv show Film
I watched a tv show when I was younger (2000). It was about some kids who I think got back in time in some way, and they met a mysterious man and I remember a owl too. I think they took a boat out to an island too, but I'm not sure.
openHALLMARK 2011-12 FILM Film
I remember watching this during either the Valentine's Day or Christmas season on Hallmark, live action movie, in 2011/2012. I cannot remember much, but a scene where a young man (30s-40s) is talking to his friend (other man, around same age) in a pub in Ireland or Scotland, and some obnoxious jerk talks to the young man, starts beating on him, because the young man is interested in the woman he has eyes on, and the young man beats him up having him fall to the ground, most if not everyone cheer. That is all I remember. It was a comedy, but more of a comedy/romance film. Does anyone know what I am talking about? Please help, thanks.
openHORSE HALLMARK FILM 2011-12 Film
This one should be easier. Once again, this is a 2011-2012 Hallmark movie, Valentine's Day around. There was a boy or girl, or both can't remember, who had a mother who went out with a man who was actually the Devil. The film revolved around horses. There was a scene in particular when the child saw the man in a room talking to the mother, or someone else I can't remember, and the man looked back at the child with a smirk and we could see the Devil's tail reflecting out of his pants. I know it's weird. The son or daughter, sorry can't remember, kept on telling the mother that he was the Devil, but she did not believe it, until the end of course. Please help, thanks!
openMovie where a comedian wins the US presidential election Film
A comedian runs as independent for POTUS, and he wins, surprising everyone and himself. But then the voting machines might be flawed, and something is off... I never saw how it ended.
opensomething similar to TMNT Live action Films. Film
Hi guys, I was hoping you guys could help me find out this movie i watched quite a bit in the past but i lost it and can't remember the name of.
Now from what i remember about the movie it had some teenage actor in a metal leg support help at the beggining of the movie a football member to win his match but the guy didn't say who he got the advice from and took the credit. Later after some talk with an asian man in some restaurant who later gives him a book that becomes a plot device later, is forced by the football person to go into a sewer like area as part of some trial of courage by going across a pipe and signing his name upon the other side and making it back before the water flushes down. Now while the kid got across and did sign his name, when he went back the water came and pushed him into the drain, to which he wakes up in the middle of some forrest being tended to by an anthromorphic rat ninja to which he scares the kid away to which the kid comes into contact with 4 other rat ninja's, an old man, and a female. The rats are apparently based off of the chinese elements (Fire, water, earth, wood, metal.) and the ninja who helped him earlier was of the water.
My memory gets vague here so i cant provide anything else, i just know its an old movie in color that was on vhs. Can anyone give me help here please?
open80s/90s Children Educational Film Film
So it's got this puppet monkey and a nonfiction guy and the guy is teaching the monkey about sharing and the monkey continues to say, "I. don't. know." It sounded like the way I typed it with the punctuation. Any of you guys possibly know what I'm talking about? It has been aggravating me for years cause I have yet to find it. Thanks !
openan animated movie about a lost cat or dog Film
i remember it was lost in a storm on a road trip or something. it was raised by rabbits or some other cut prey animal whose motto was basically "run away!" i remember the opening to it having really sad music. its defiantly VHS old
openUnknown Koala-Thing Slavery Adventure Rescue Mission Extravaganza Film
I have this memory of an animated film (could have been a TV show) that I saw a bit of when I was younger. I remember a creature that MIGHT have been a koala, and he (I think it was a he) had no idea where his parents were. They'd been missing for a while, and the animation then shows what looked like animal slave labour underground and the koala-thing's parents were down there as workers or prisoners or something and they needed rescuing (as the animation moved underground I remember there was a worm). I think the plot was the koala-thing setting off to rescue them. No-one else has heard of this, and now I think about it it could have been a dream, but I've always wondered what was going on and what happens next, and because I know nothing about it I've never been able to find out. Do any of you remember this?
openGlee-Like Musical Band Thingy Film
Live action film/musical about a guy who's performing and his girlfriend and they're alternating between mushiness and angst (or something) and there's one scene where another girl is telling Girlfirend that when Boyfriend gets up on stage he will forget all about her and go after other people. There is also a scene where a bunch housewifey women sing (or at least lipsync) to 'Hit Me With Your Best Shot', and part of the number is them singing the song in church and part of it is them beating their husbands.One of the main character's names began with a D.
openFire Safety for Vampires Film
I remember an old fire safety video that was shown in Elementary school, back around 2002-04, about a bunch of kids who trespass onto a guy's property. Basically, they enter the house and note how dusty everything is, how there are rags scattered about, that the guy has a space heater, stuff like that. So then one kid finds a box of Count Chocula cereal, which activates a hidden doorway, leading to the discovery of a Friendly Neighborhood Vampire , whom they leave with a fire safety instruction video. We watch the Vampire watch the video (One scene recommends calling for help, at which point he starts howling like a wolf), and the kids come back later to find that not only has the vampire made his house safer, but he also joined Transylvania's Fire Department. Does this sound familiar?
openThriller where woman leaves husband and he comes looking for her Film
American movie, where there is a very large luxury house at the sea. A lady who lives there is married, and her husband abuses her. She decides to leave, and throws her ring in the toilet. And at one point she pretends she's drowning. Then she goes away, and begins a new life in a different state. She meets a bearded man, but she's reluctant because of her past. She also has a blind mother whom she visits. The original man finds out she lives, and goes after her (also meets the blind mother), and finds her.
openWordless animated movie Film
There was this movie that was in American theaters a while back. It was animated, and about a boy, and as far as I could tell from the trailers there was no spoken dialogue. There was music, though. I was looking forward to going to see it here in Sweden, but it looks as if it won't be in theaters, so I need your help finding out what it was called.
openDramatic-comedy film. Film
I saw part of a movie on TV two or three years ago, and I chiefly remember it for one moment of Black Comedy. I think the overall plot was something to do with a group of siblings coming back to their old home town to stay with their parents for a while. In the scene I remember, the setup is that their father has this very old, sickly dog, and one of his sons is concerned for its well-being and wants the father to have it euthanized, which the father refuses to do. The father is fond of feeding the dog treats by hand, so one day the son surreptitiously replaces the dog treats with poisoned ones. He sees his father coming to give the dog its treats, and seeing how much affection the man and the dog show each other, has a last minute change of heart and tries to distract his dad so he can get rid of the poisoned ones and replace them. While this is happening, one of the poisoned treats falls to the floor and the dog of course immediately eats it.

Should be fairly easy. There was this Disney movie that I think had Scrooge Mcduck as the protagonist and the villain was some kind of evil sorcerer or shapeshifter. At one point near the end he takes over Scrooge's mansion and turns it into this spiky fortress thing.
