    The Big Chill” (man in front of the giant fridge), and “The Man from Snowy River” (man getting out of the ‘snowy’ river.) Then there’s “Walk the Line”, “Thin Red Line” and “Mission: Impossible” all in the same sequence. Only three to go.

    The X symbol from the kiss of spider woman at the beginning of the clip reminds me a lot the symbol of X-men…

    I think that it isn’t top gun, I saw that segment as Munich. 1972 olympic games, lots of shooting however top gun does make as much sense as Munich

    its not cinderella, its cinderella man
    its not mission impossible either ALL THE TITLES ARE LITERAL!!
    i.e. spider man (a spider with a mans body) jeez i would think some people were daft!
    And its Hellraiser (the man rasing the hell scene) not strongman!

    and to that person up there who said butterfly effect 2, you need to watch some better movies.

      If a particular item or scene reminds someone of a movie, than who is to say it isn’t that movie? Even if a suggested movie is not the movie intended by the authors of the clip, it doesn’t matter. I don’t see why it isn’t justified, if a valid reference is provided. This is for fun, lighten up and post up your suggestions instead of belittling others’ suggestions.

    the queen could also be “the duchess“
    the man spray painting, i thought it was “American Gangster“
    never thought of raging bull, what about “Red Bull Storm“
    with the buoy, maybe “the Beacon”?
    this was a really good idea, whoever came up with
    this add, i like it.
    some of the movie titles are strange though.…

    I think in the scene with American Graffiti he’s crushing an orange clock — could this be A Clockwork Orange?

    The last one, of the money being shot, could also be Cheap Shot.

    Also, number 15 isn’t Cinderella. It’s most likely to be Cinderella Man.

    –Man steps on Clockwork Orange & bust into ‘Blue Streak’.
    –Above the Raging Bull & 12 Angry Men you can see ‘Smoke’.
    –One police holding number 2 (look closely) in hell ‘Too hot to handle’.
    –The other police is fanning himself from the ‘Heat’.

    I thought no 41 — The Running Man or Cool Runnings could also be Marathon Man because he is running on a track.
