Daniel Meier Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) As we all love movies, I thought about starting a little quiz in here. I'll start with posting a still from a movie's first shot. The next one who guesses from which movie it was taken, can throw in another still frame of a different feature. And so it goes on and on. I hope this isn't getting too challenging: Edited February 24, 2016 by Daniel Meier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Meier Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Looks like Terminator 2, possibly? Bloody right! You can post the next frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Trost Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Alright...this might be too easy, but it has been on my mind as I just saw it for the first time. Guessing someone will get it right away, but bonus points if you can name the cinematographer off the top of your head! Such a great film...
