Early 2000s documentary/movie about a sea lion/seal rescue? Film

I remember watching a movie or a documentary in the early 2000s about a sea lion rescue/rehabilitation center. I can remember that at one point the staff are very sad because a sea lion they rescued has some sort of poisoning and is going to die. For some reason I think Mercury poisoning?

dying woman seeks replacement Film

The film has a dying woman trying to find a replacement wife for her husband. Film cover has a lady in wrapping paper, and sun glasses.

Live-Action Adventure Film Film

I remember seeing some sort of "island adventure" film when I was younger. It was in full color, and the only part I remember is the main characters (two kids and an older man?) discovering that a series of "island adventure" books are talking about a real place. There were three books in the series, and each one had a partial map in the front. I remember one of them was just a big sweeping area of coastline. If lined up right, the three pages would make a full map of the island. I remember that they took the "map" pages out of the book, lined them up, and "scanned" (old-timey scanning with placing them against a lighted background) them. As the camera was panning past the "scanning apparatus", one of the pages fell over. Not sure if that was intentional or not.

A movie about a man catching his wife cheating Film

I saw this movie a few years ago. I believe it was on Netflix.

A man gets off work and comes home to find his wife cheating on him with another man. He goes downstairs, gets a gun, and murders them both. The scene then cuts back, and it seems that he only imagined killing them. He goes up and holds them at gun-point, and the majority of the movie takes place in the bedroom with him interrogating them. At the very end of the film, we discover that he really did kill them, and the part about interrogating them at gunpoint was the actual delusion.

I remember almost every detail about the film, I just can't remember the title.

Film? Film

Live action film. A boy was hiding in a bus for some reason. There’s other kids in the bus. There’s also this man who traps another man in a closet in an old house and tells him he’ll never come out. The trapped dude struggles to get out.

Comedy, romance, drama? Film

I saw part of this movie a very long time ago in the early 2000s and the scene just stuck in my mind.

A man and a woman are relaxing and talking on some beach chairs near some water at night. The scene then switches to some party or something. Then back to the man and woman who are walking up some path. The man walks first, and the woman behind. Then at some point the woman sort of sinks into the ground partially somehow and gets stuck. And the man, who walked a bit ahead, returns after a while and helps her out, and they continue. And then the scene switches back to the party.

I feel like there were 3 almost elderly women at some point either before or after the part I described. But that is all I remember.

Board game, please? Film

In one scene in the Amazon original movie "The Manor", the main character and her grandson play a horror movie trivia board game with little gravestone pieces. Does anyone know what game it is?

Weird movie Film

I saw this movie a while back. There was this girl and three tiny animals. One was a bear I think. And another was a Wolf. Some dude threw the wolf in a fireplace and a human face appeared or something. There was purple mist. I think that’s all I remember

The Titan Oceanus/Okeanos Film

I remember seeing a picture of a film where he was portrayed by a man in highly unconvincing blue paint, I just can’t find anything on it.

Movie poster from this picture? Film

Does anyone recognize the third movie poster from the left in this picture?

https://freeimage.host/i/WGJnm7

I can tell the others are Army of Darkness, Star Wars: A New Hope, The Thing, and Blade Runner, but I don't recognize the other, and the art is way too simple to figure out what it shows, but I figured someone might be able to recognize the style or character?

80s movie featuring a snippet of The Cars "Let's Go." Film

Hello All. Hopefully someone can help me remember this movie, because as Morpheus said, it's been a splinter in my mind recently. I saw this movie on cable TV back in the very early 80s, so it had to have been released in the late 70s to very early 80s. As I recall it was a teen angst type of movie. One of the characters was a young lady. Here's what I remember: This young lady had an argument with her parents (Or just Mom, perhaps.) and ran off out of the house. She ended up at some bar, where a man and woman started to try to befriend her, but apparently they were some kind of sexual predators. Somehow they talk her into the car with them, and they have her trapped in the middle of the front seat. They're flying down the road, and the man keeps pawing the young lady. As she's trying to fight him off, he makes the sarcastic remark, "The beast with five fingers, huh?" (Referencing the old sci-fi film.) Well he's not watching the road, and he ends up plowing into the back of a semi. The next thing you know they're wheeling the young lady into the hospital on a gurney. About this time, the soundtrack starts playing The Cars "Let's Go." As the line "She's a frozen fire" plays, the young lady coughs up blood into her respirator and flat lines. That's all I can remember about this movie. And I can't find any references to that song being used in any movie at that time. But I remember that plain as day. (So, apparently they played just enough of the song to get by with Fair Usage.) Anyone remember this movie?

sinks, magic portal, no eyes, and new orleans? Film

When i was little, we watched a movie on comcast on demand (god i feel old) it was a movie that contained the following (please forgive my disjointed memory):

so this kid is walking along the streets of new orleans and comes across this old man. tries to sell him something and the kid runs away. stranger danger.

there are two to three siblings living in a big house in new orleans. One of them finds a magical portal underneath what i think is a kitchen sink. They come across an eyeless man who freaks them out. they then are taken into the charismatic arms of this long haired bearded charismatic villain who tries to take the boys eyes. He escapes and joins the rebels or some shit...it makes less sense in context. Then his sister shows up and the villain decides to keep the whole "i'mma take your eyes" thing on the down low.

remember the old man from the beginning? he appears outside of the house and waves his magic stick around (a literal stick, dont worry) and then all is resolved in the house.

it makes no god damned sense but my siblings asked if i remembered it. My little brother got really scared at the scene where they're about to take his eyes out. he ran away crying. he's a doctor now.

Comedy starting with instructional video. Film

I saw the beginning of a movie that starts with a man following recorded instructions to put together a recent purchase. I think it was a hot tub.

And it might have been Larry the Cable Guy. Someone like that.

early-mid 2000s teen show w ginger lead Film

the plot followed a famous male actor coming to the small town the lead girl lived in and everyone obsessing over him, while the main girl found him obnoxious. she ends up sneaking into one of his movie sets for whatever reason and finds out that he's super rude and hates the costar of his film. by the end of the movie, the actor guy and the main girl are best friends. i remember it being a disney channel-esqe movie aimed at younger girls, probably ages 8-12. it was on netflix sometime most likely in the early/mid 2010s. for some reason i prominently remember the main girl being a ginger—i wasn't used to main characters being redheads, methinks?

Short film featuring a nose Film

This is from something I saw on TV back when I was less than 5 years old (which means it's an early 2000 short film (or a rerun of something older), so maybe it's something I dreamed up, but maybe it's true, who knows:

It's a short film set in a white background. It features a nose which keeps on moving forward and sniffs different things, mostly for humourous effect. At the end, I do believe he sniffs tobacco (or cocaine) and dies.

One last thing I remember (but watch out, it could be misleading) is Woody Allen being affiliated to that short. I don't know why, I keep thinking of him when I try to remember that short film.

Tv-show about paranormal happenings Film

I'm looking for a tv-series, timeperiod maybe between 1997 and 2007. It's like a criminal and/or maybe paranormal investigation (like X-files and Twilight zone, but lighter subjects). In this particular episode a young male student etc. gets shot in a shop by a robber. He has a bullet hole in his shirt, front and back, but he is uninjured. The police investigate the matter and in a csi-style investigation they conclude that the victim was holding a glass bottle in front of him, which shattered from the shot and the bullet changed direction to the side. The bullet then went throuhgh the shirt, which was stretched out because it got tangled in something...anybody recognize this tv show? Thanks

Weird hospital movie Film

Back in September 2021, I watched a movie where the main character was a woman in a hospital. There were also 3 or 4 other patients in the hospital who were important to the plot as well.

One scene I remember is one where the woman's legs get cut off by a chainsaw by the doctor, then stitched back. Another scene had the woman trying to get a phone call, but the wire was cut. Another scene was where the woman found a door that appeared to lead to the outside, but was actually a brick wall.

The antagonist was an evil doctor who was behind the operations. He once said in the film that the patients never died and that they would live forever.

The woman's backstory involved her killing her boyfriend in a manner that would make the police think that it was a suicide.

The film kept flashing between scenes in the past and scenes in the hospital.

At the end of the film, the woman woke up in a real hospital in real life. The nurse said she was unconscious for about five seconds, then the woman remarks "it felt much longer than that."

The film was probably an independent production produced between 2010–2021. I don't know a lot of tropes off the top of my head so if you don't know the actual work, you might still be able to give me some tropes that lead me to this movie. I watched the film on Prime Video, as that is where most indie films are dumped.

The reason I remembered this movie after a few months of forgetting about it is because I was reading a "bfdi dream" fanfic that had an evil scientist (the doctor) and the characters were being experimented on, similar to this film.

80s or 90s - boy unwillingly drafted to save the world by talking alien powered armor. Film

I think this was late 80s-early 90s to look at the effects and fashion. The plot is that a talking suit of Powered Armor arrives on earth and somehow ends up being worn by a preteen boy: Basically the armor suit needs a living pilot to complete its mission of defeating an invading enemy, so now that the main character is inside the suit, it's programmed not to let him leave until he's fought the antagonist. One scene I remember had the boy point out the loophole in said programming and actually convinced the suit to let him go (naturally it's just a 10-Minute Retirement): He actually does fight the Big Bad halfway through the movie and ends up retreating after it's clear he's outmatched... but the rule just said he had to engage with the enemy, not win. I also vaguely remember there being some kind of mild Toilet Humor about what the boy would do if he had to pee while stuck in the suit.

Looking for 1980s Nickelodeon (?) film Film

I'm trying to remember the name of a film I watched on (I believe) Nickelodeon. It probably aired in the mid-to-late 80s.

The main detail I remember was that there were aliens or some other advanced race who had made contact with Earth and at least part of their hiding place was a cave. They had gold discs with an open, geometric pattern hanging in some arrangement, and the main conflict in the film was between the greedy adults who wanted the gold and the children who were trying to protect it. The coins were significant to the aliens for one reason or another — I think it hurt the aliens whenever someone touched it.
