StoneKeeper's Summer Movie Guessing Game: I Recommend THIS Movie #1191 - Fun in the Sun [Kawada_Kira flies first class with a HARD TICKET TO HAWAII]
Just got back from a day trip to the Victorville Film Archives with a stack of bangin' movies featuring this popcorn classic...
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.
Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.
- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- The OP cannot win a game before 12 hints are on the board. After Hint #12, there are 3 final guesses. With 15 incorrect guesses the OP gets to start the next game..
- Movie must have at least 3500 IMDB votes. Otherwise, add a bonus hint.

Kawada_Kira must not be smoking too many heavy doobies to pin this round's recommendation on Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987), a solid entry point into the Andy Sidaris oeuvre. If you're searching for a great looking B-movie with absurd stunts, splendorous locales, copious explosions, and the assured direction of the TV sports pioneer himself, you might as well watch some of the highlights on Youtube and see if it's for you. A movie not without its own lulls, this Hard Ticket is nevertheless a light watch.
