Alright, here's how you play. Post a screen shot of the movie at 33 minutes 33 seconds. And we guess what it is.
First two for you. One easy mode, one medium.

My favorite movie of all time, Apocalypse Now!, love it so much
I figured the lighting would probably give it away.
I guarantee almost everyone on this forum has seen this.

Come on all post some more! "Acquire" a copy of a movie and print-screen it.

ahh the fabled double post

And not the Hueys?

And not the Hueys?
Lol. Now that you say it...
Bit of a side tracked story here.
Anyway this year in my AP English class we read Heart of Darkness which is what Apocalypse Now! is an adaptation of, as I am sure you know. Anyway before we watched the film our teacher gave us about a thirty minute lecture on common works and acronyms used by the military. Verbatim "CO means Commanding Officer, LZ means Landing Zone... etc... etc...". I'm snickering inside because this has all been engrained into me since as long as I can remember. However in my teacher's defense I do live in the liberal suburbs of DC.
Later on during the movie she explains that "'Charlie' isn't a person but slang for the VC/NVA (I guess some people were confused) and that there were many names used like gook and that probably there are slang names used in the Middle East now. (Which there obviously are)" Here comes the best part. When our teacher is explaining what Charlie means and listing some of the other names a girl says,"Yeah, they were also called 'Hueys'." Me and my friend just lost it. For some reason it was just timed correctly and I just about started to cry.
We are the future. The best and brightest of the generation in the best schools in the country. Can't wait to see what mistakes and history my generation will repeat.

Is that an Ewok? Return of the Jedi then.

You are the exception to the rule- they can probably name many things that you've never heard of. Don't assume that just because they can't understand slang from the Vietnam war that they'll mess up the future. I would have no clue either, had my dad not played Jane's Fleet Command, Hearts of Iron, and other such games with me since I was old enough to read and had the dexterity to hold a mouse (4-5 years old). Does that make me smarter than everyone else? Heck no. Does it make me a potentially better soldier or officer? No, I couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag, and I'm no longer a fan of blowing other people up with TLAM's, SM2's, and SSN launched ADCAP's according to Blue Water doctrine while hunting the Kuznetsov in the Black Sea, or debating the finer points of defeating an air-defense grid using a combined TLAM and ATGM missle strike. There, without Google you'll likely be looking at me cross-eyed. Now you know how they feel.

Now calm down there space cowboy. I am very familiar with all of those terms. I am very aware that my classmates are intelligent people and no doubt know things that I do not. I am sure all of them know things that I don't. In fact every single person on the planet knows something I don't. I obviously was being facetious. It's just that I thought relaying that story would hopefully create some laughs with some of the members of the board. Don't be too proud of these technological terrors you have imaginary control of. The difference between the specific weapon systems you have named and a abbreviation like CO or LZ is quite different. In fact if I said the sentence,"The private saluted his CO at the LZ right after his chopper landed there." anybody could get an understanding of what is meant there.
I read The Hunt for Red October when I was eight years old and Red Storm Rising right after. All of those systems are used and explained in heavy detail in those books. I am not saying you aren't intelligent but I am saying you shouldn't try to wave it around like you are always in some kind of intelligence noodle measuring contest. You aren't. No one cares. Also next time you try to outsmart someone on a forum that has people mainly interested in military weapons you might not want to use everyone's common base of knowledge to prove how you know things that we do not.

I just assumed it was a Star Wars movie....
1979, dog attacks girl in some sort of forest that everyone here would have seen, eh?

Yes and yes. :aok

Nope. The only clue I will give is that the movie was made 14 years prior to Close Encounters.

I think I made it clear that I was not attempting to outsmart you. I made that rather clear in the preceding part of the sentence. I tried to load my language with as much jargon as I could in the hope that you'd notice how difficult it is to read, and that an accident of my upbringing was the only reason I knew it. No ulterior motive there, just proving a point. I admit that military jargon was a poor choice in retrospect. Now, if you want jargon that I'm almost certain you can't read, then here:
"On the rigging boat, make fast your boomvang!"
"Haul away peak!"
"Balantine that loose sheet!"
If it were your first time sailing, and I laughed at you for not understanding, it would be rude. The same applies here. The term LZ does not immediately connote Landing Zone, to the unacquianted, it could as well just be an arbitrary designation like the Omaha in Omaha beach.

Is the second one Galaxy Quest? I've never seen the movie but that reminds me of some Tim Allen space movie, and that's the only one I've heard of.
EDIT: I am sooooooooooo slooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooow

yes. the second one is Galaxy Quest . I may be wrong but the last one almost looks like North by Northwest .
-
The first three have all been guessed correctly now.
1. Aliens
2. Galaxy Quest
3. Fifth Element
4. ?
5. ?
6. ?

Sorry. Another clue: one of the characters in the film is named Captain Culpepper. Also, look in the dust trail behind the station wagon. Seems like a car chase is going on (hint, hint). Anyone over 30 has had to see this movie.

Right actor, wrong movie. Kind of surprised no one has gotten #4 yet. No clues for that one, it's very Hush-Hush. ;)
Clue for #5: The man in the picture dies in the next scene.

Funny thing is that I have spent a lot of time on a sailboat. I get what you are trying to say. But the first time I was working on a sailboat that is exactly what the captain did. He only used the specific words of each object or equipment that way we good get it so that example doesn't work for my experience. However I will say again that I do understand and agree with your statement in general.
The only thing is no one wants to hear you say it here. I know that seems offensive but seriously dude keep it to yourself. Stop taking offense to everything people write on this board, in this case defending people who you will never meet. Remember that barely anyone is trying to specifically offend anyone else when they post.

Who is that in #5? Looks like Dustin Hoffman and Matthew McCanaughy had a son. :headscratch:
-
Alright, #5 is kinda tough. I'll give you his character name: Umberto Calvini and the movie is from 2009.
