Dobermann
Tin Cup
Longshot

93 and counting...

Other mysteries include the knife in the tree, the blue pancake-turner or paddle Mr. Jarhead is holding, the money in the hole, the dog, the warrior on the roof, the chocolate cake in the the stand to the right, the small red box on the palm tree behind the saddles, the jug next to the cocktail, the naked chick at the phone booth, the weird screaming statue behind the jarhead, the gun and the overlength bullet and the parking meter that seems kinda off.

When I count those they add up to 12... we're missing 13. Hmmmmm... what a coincidence! LOL

Oddly enough, I can't find matches for some of them that seem perfectly plausible, but IMDB just doesn't return any decent hits, such as Darkroom, Bigfoot and Green Eggs and Ham O.o;.

Don't peak if you don't want your fun spoiled.

This is the best list I've seen. However, it's not Dark Room... it's One Hour Photo (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0265459/). That's the only one I knew that you didn't.

I'm still stumped by the same ones as you but you've solved about 20 of them that were staring me in the face. Woo!

^^; I have One Hour Photo on the list, too! That's one of the really obvious ones. But since it clearly says "Dark Room" on the building there I'm just tempted to think it MUST mean something...

Glad my list could be of any assistance! XD

hrm, good point. I must have missed One Hour Photo in the mass of other movies...

maybe Darkroom is pitch black (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0134847/)?

and maybe, could the warrior on the roof be Gladiator?

I don't know... this all seems too abstract for my taste, considering that the other hints usually are very straight-forward and all. Same reason why I'm doubtful about the "I am Sam" bit. Seems too abstract. But who knows...

Pitch Black... maybe. Seems a bit abstract, but maybe those are the more difficult ones... Thing is, there are tons of movies called Dark Room or Darkroom, just not really mainstream ones.
