The subject for this weeks competition is .....
FILM TITLES
Your picture should depict the title of a film, preferable pretty literally; like a key stuck in an orange for A Clockwork Orange. For a bit of added fun don't give your picture a title, let's try to guess what the film is in the chat thread (ie, here).

You`d have guessed my desk top background picture I did for a DC Mag weekend comp then? ;)

It`s an old one I`ll not re-do
I think I may have chosen too broadly again - I've got at least a dozen ideas for this one. Anyway, here is placeholder, just in case nothing else gets done:

Another from me that might replace my original effort as I made it obvious what it was with my title!

Not quite so obvious this one and a bugger to take using a Lensbaby Composer I was loaned by the main man in Flickr Leeds who has been given one to review by the company and is lending it out to Flickr Leeds Nikon users to test drive too. All manual - drop in aperture disk, no connection to any auto features on my D80 - just the histogram and shutter speed to look at!
Got me stumped jinky. Is it this Canadian short? http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0311710/
No, thought not . .
How about Shallow Grave?
Carrie?
I've found five films called 'Cross', is it one of those?
There's one called 'The Grave' from 1996.
OK, I give up.
Good guesses ... but you`re not right.
Right genre and I believe there was a trilogy - no I`m told 4 and the last one has just been out in 3d.
Toy Story? ! ?
Last go: Final Destination ?
Damn you - you`ve got it!
Here's another one then:

Doing another couple because this game is a hoot.
Love yours Andrew, and it only took one look to get the title too - perfection!
Many thanks - and it only cost a quid for the prop!
Still working on your latest.
I'm surprised there aren't more entries as i found this weeks theme open to so many choices, like you i've looked at several options. Stuck with this one for now.
OK, last one, I promise. I'll pick one to enter tomorrow.

I too have had loads of ideas but have been working mid-mornings every day this week so haven't found the free timeto try anything. Had a day off yesterday but it was my long service award dinner (only 25 yrs) :beer: :beer: so no chance there. On work again Sunday so the camera's gonna have to come with me I think just in case. There are a few work related films around if I can pick the moment. Trainspotting, Great train robbery, midnight express etc. Have to see what I can get in my break. :D
Been out all day but finally got down to my film title this evening.
The french title in the entries thread might give it away ::)
