Warm weather is upon us, the Blue Jays are playing solid baseball, and recreational softball consistently reminds me that I am getting older with each passing game. Clearly this means that June is in full swing. So it is time to test your film knowledge with this month’s edition of I Have Scene It Before. Last month only 17 of the 21 films were identified. The four films that stumped people were: 2014’s Enemy (#2); Kenneth Branagh 1996’s version of Hamlet (#10); 2000’s Hamlet (#13); and 2013’s Canadian indie The Dirties (#17). Here is this month’s selection of film scenes. How many can you identify?

#10 is wrong. The rest are correct.
2. An Ernest movie (Saves Christmas?)
3. Frozen
10. Modern Times
#3 is correct. The rest are wrong…though you are on the right track for both.
2. Ernest Goes to Jail
10. The Gold Rush
11. Rookie of the Year
All are correct.
1. Hope and Glory (just watched that!)
3. Frozen
8. The Towering Inferno
9. The Cotton Club (?)
10. The Gold Rush
12. Strangers on a Train
16. You Only Live Twice
Not sure on #9. Kinda sure on #12. Positive on the others.
#9 is wrong, though you thank you for reminding me that I still need to see The Cotton Club.
The rest are correct.
I want to say #7 is one of the Marvel Anime but I don’t remember which one.
Avengers Confidential: The Punisher and Black Widow?
Sorry it is not Avengers Confidential. I will say that the key to solving that shot is to observe everything but the woman at the centre.
If I’m right about it being Marvel Anime then it’s Iron Man Rise of Technovore. I know it’s an animated superhero movie I’ve seen I just can’t place which one.
You are in the right genre, but wrong in regards to the film/studio.
It was staring right at me, but for some reason I didn’t think that was Talia Al Ghul, I just watched this recently too. It’s Son of Batman.
Correct!
13 Celtic Pride (I hate that I know that)
Correct. I think we are all a little ashamed for watching that one.
