The French Connection, buuuuut I had to Google it. Didnā€™t see your hint at first.

A raptor eats zombies at will without being attacked. It has coronavirus.

Lol, wot? Oh manā€¦ I feel satisfiedā€¦ but also confused. Is that nostalgia? Or Euphoria? I think it was Tom Robbins who said something along the lines ofā€¦ I looked it up: ā€œAmnesia is not knowing who one is and wanting desperately to find out. Euphoria is not knowing who one is and not caring. Ecstasy is knowing exactly who one is - and still not caring.ā€

I havnā€™t seen World War Zā€¦ is that it? If not I will need to consult the databases.

NO facking way. Perhaps this begins to reveal how many movies I have seen: that I can narrow down that which I have not through process of elimination.

Since this forum is borderline dead, I think Iā€™ll go ahead and post the one I wrote when I first saw this gameā€¦ Iā€™ve been saving itā€¦ Itā€™s such a great film my fellow OGS forummatesā€¦ Itā€™s got an easily searchable quoteā€¦

Just to tease, I'll post some lightening rounds
  1. A raptor princess dreams of becoming a human when she falls in love with a man.
  2. A random hero is wrecked when his girlfriend decides to leave him for a metal head raptor. The raptor crushes 6-packs, loves Gnarkill and will destroy all.
  3. A mother and her daughter lock themselves into a fortified room when raptors burglarize their home.
  4. (I tried to do Ghost in the Shellā€¦ Ghost in the Raptorā€¦ It was such a mouthfull, though)
  5. A neighbor breaks his leg and with his now idle time watches his neighbors through camera lenses during a heat wave. He witnesses, amongst all the series of windows, the raptor eat his own wife.
  6. A a retired raptorā€™s past catches up to him and because of the actions of an imposter he must come out of hiding to oust those who have tried to frame him. The raptor eats Grace Kelly, among others.
The answers to the lightening round...
  1. Lol. Little Mermaid
  2. Haggard
  3. Panic Room
  4. Hmphā€¦
  5. Rear Effing Window
  6. To Catch an Effing Thief

Your post in the coronavirus thread made me want to watch Juno. Iā€™m about to download it just now. Dope songs by the way.

Kimya Dawson man. Give her a MacArthur award already. Give her a Pulitzer. A Peabody. What other accolades can I list? Give her the damn Nobel Peace Prize. So beautiful.

Okayā€¦ hereā€™s the big one, everyone. Are you ready?

ā€œThis is the story of a raptor marked by an image of his childhood. The violent scene which upset him, and whose meaning he was to grasp only years laterā€¦.ā€

A raptor survives nuclear war but is a prisoner to scientists who want to use him to travel back in time and potentially correct the future by changing the past. He has no choice, but instead falls in love with a woman(raptor) from his past. After many attempts at time travel our hero eventually returns to the moment that haunted him, a memory from his childhood. He witnesses himself as a child and realizes too late that this is the moment of his own death. (He eats himself).

This something by Cronenberg? It gives me that vibe.

Edit: I correct myself, Iā€™m probably thinking of The Dead Zone.

Haha. Not quite. I do totally see where you get that. This isnā€™t horror at all. Itā€™s barely a filmā€¦ Itā€™sā€¦ one of those artsy fartsy films.

I need to watch more of Cronenbergs older films. Been on my list for a while. Hard not to think of the Rick and Morty episode, now. Where they ā€˜Cronenbergā€™ everything.

This is the post to end this forum. If anyone gets this without searching we are probably soul mates.

Hint: It was made into a full length film, thoughā€¦ by a director weā€™ve touched on just barely in this game.

My favourite episode and the one that made me discover Mazzy Star.

Well. Here it is. If you can get your hands on it, Iā€™d recommendā€¦ Hereā€™s just a little taste I could find on youtubeā€¦

Obviously it would be sooo much better with a few raptors.

Also, the first minute of Sans Soleil... Because: Why not?

A raptor is clawing to the mast of a sinking ship. The ship barely manages to get to a harbor, so the raptor jumps out and eats two perplexed looking English soldiers.
