7, 8 and 9 all correct.

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

9 - Of course *smacks self round head repeatedly*

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

1 - Event Horizon
2 -
3 - Oh Brother Where Art Thou?
4 - Go
5 - Um???
6 - Cliffhanger or Die Hard
7 - So many to choose
8 - Bladerunner
9 - Bruce Dern film, 3 robots (Huey, Duey and Louis)
10 - I'm guessing that should be 'Snake' - Conan the Barbarian (incidentally not about an ill-manner chat show host).

3, 8, 9 (ish) and 10 correct

[elani.livejournal.com]

Ghosts on a Space Station - Solaris
Robot on a Robot Hunt - Bladerunner?
Barbarian on a Skake Hunt - If you mean Snake then Conan?

[binidj.livejournal.com]

1, 8 and 10 correct.

[jfs.livejournal.com]

1. Ghosts on a Space Station = Solaris

2. Computers on a Head-trip = Jonny Mnemonic

3. Convicts on a Radio = Oh Brother, Where Art Thou

6. Hero on a Line = Spiderman

9. Forest on a Spaceship = Silent Running

10. Barbarian on a Skake Hunt (asuming you meant Snake) = Conan the Barbarian

[binidj.livejournal.com]

1, 3, 6, 9 and 10 correct

[irdm.livejournal.com]

I'm vexed I can't think of #1

#9 is the one with the 3 biospheres and the little fixing-robots on wheels?
#5 could be Alien
#3 is presumably Oh Brother Etc

[irdm.livejournal.com]

Ships in the night - yes, Silent Running!!!

[binidj.livejournal.com]

3, 5 and 9 (eventually) correct

[wildwinter.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...

Skipping the ones Paul already got...

1 - Event Horizon?
6 - Mission Impossible?
10 - Conan the Barbarian? (probably waayy too obvious)

Otherwise way too tricky for me. :-)

[wildwinter.livejournal.com]

Oh, 3 must be Oh Brother Where Art Thou...

[binidj.livejournal.com]

3 and 10 correct

[ed-fortune.livejournal.com]

3 is the Matrix?
4 is High Fidelity?

[binidj.livejournal.com]

Since you'd have to be living in a very special place to think that 3 is The Matrix, I shall assume that you meant 2 and give you the point.

[ed-fortune.livejournal.com]

Yes I meant two (note to self, learn to count).

Hmmm, 4 could be 24 hour part people, but I doubt it.

[binidj.livejournal.com]

4 is close, but no cigar

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

4 - since it's not go, it's the other one of a similar time - 3 friends, one weekend, the central character continually talks to camera, one scene he hears death threats from a cat.
And I can't remember it's name *head-desk repeatedly*

[binidj.livejournal.com]

Well, aside from getting a great many details wrong I think you're on the right track!

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

Really?


I'm sure my housemate has it on video.
But I can't even remember any relevant details to IMDb it - not for the quiz, but to satisfy my own curiosity.

Did it begin with A?

[binidj.livejournal.com]

No ... and I am not going to answer that question for every letter in the alphabet.

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

No worries - I wasn't going to be that bad.

Right - I'm off home to check h/mate's shelves and slap meself silly for forgetting it.

[binidj.livejournal.com]

"Great many" may have been an exaggeration.

[failing-angel.livejournal.com]

4 - When I got home I found out.
But I see Kathbad beat me to it.

[kathbad]

4. Human Traffic?

[binidj.livejournal.com]

4 Correct
