There's no such thing as a free one, remember. Check your soul is where you left it.

In Bruges.

I don't know whether to trust him less since he is an Anglican Godbotherer or because his father and brother were in the Kosbies, that lot would steal the sugar out your tea.

Features in a shooty/chasey cop film and many others (probably). One scene takes place in this park at night.

Scorpio?

Right or wrong, could I know the solution to the previous one?

Not Scorpio, which I don't think was filmed in this city, but I could be wrong.

Previous film was "In Bruges".

Edit to add: there is a character called Scorpio in this film, is that what you meant?

Dirty Harry

Correct.

It doesn't look quite right, but I'm guessing Office Space, anyway.

Dallas

Well, it doesn't look quite so wrong that you weren't able to get the right answer!

What doesn't look right about it? I'm pretty sure it's the right building.

There's a scene in the movie when they're coming back from Chachie's (or wherever it is that they go to get coffee), and they run into Tom. There are a couple of sizable, engineered berms which Tom has to cross to get to them, and he is quite winded by the time he reaches them. That's what seems like is missing to me. Probably because it's a movie, and they can shoot scenes wherever they please, and call it the same place.

Anyway - onwards we go.

They blew the top off of this building in this 1988 action film.

Looks like the Nakatomi Plaza to me, but only because of the clue.

Die Hard?

Rambo III?

If I ever think of a film set in Manchester I'll use this. NSFW

Wait a minute - so we can run more guesses that just one-at-a-time?

Die Hard it is. Who would've thunk that the franchise is harder to kill than John McClane?

Anything from New Zealand will automatically get a guess from the LOTR from me. I'm guessing - The Fellowship of the Ring.

But I think we're still going one at a time. I correctly guessed Office Space from the previous clue, and Heid correctly guessed Die Hard from mine.

Die Hard would have been my answer too, but, alas, my countryman beat me to it. I wonder if he'll manage to find anything that was filmed in Temperance St, Manchester.

I see. TFT.

The Empire Strikes Back ?

(Good fun driving the Googlemobile that day, by the look of the road)

Correct, I don't think it is the right spot but as close as the Googlemobile got. It is bizarre that they went there in winter though I think some of their route is over a frozen lake.

It was my first thought within about half a second after seeing it, so I don't think exact spotness was important with that one.

It is with this very easy one, though.

Gah! What happened to the door?!

Ghostbusters

Listen... do you smell something?

Classic film. You, sir, are up.
