although I could almost never guess them, cropped images add diverstity and flavor, they are a welcome addition by all means. Heck, it even means more investment, and next time it's my turn, I'm going to do that too. Like I said, just ignore the trolls, and in the words of gunnery sergeant Highway, "Don't give the pricks the satisfaction" by even replying.

And apples? Oh, now I see...

Okay. A little explanation may be in order at this point.

When I post cropped images I start with the trickiest, then, if nobody gets it they should get progressively easier. So if you get it with the first image you can feel extra smug :D

I usually have a few prepared at the same time and when viewed together they give a pretty good indication of what the film is. That's the idea anyway.

Paulofilmo brought up a good point a few posts back though, when he was trying to figure out the last image by its aspect ratio, which made me think it would be a good idea to mention whether the image is cropped if it's not obvious. So with that in mind...

I can't help but think about it after this embarrassment. look how i haughtily didn't use a question mark. the chagrin is real.

if i'd used a full stop i would have died. oh my god.

Good guess, but no.

As an additional clue - it has just over 6000 reviews here.

Chinatown, I believe.

I would recognize Bruce Glover's ugly mug anywhere.
