Film 'quiz' :)

[MrRottweiler]

The pic is small but the robots are very distinct (If you've seen the flick)

Its not Buck Rogers or Twiki.

That reminds me of when Alan Partridge is looking at a new house and on seeing the toilet he remarks that it looks futuristic and says to the seller:

"I can see Buck Rogers taking a dump on that"

Move closer to the monitor.

How wude!

Seriously now, TV shows are not allowed, normally we play with movies...

[MrRottweiler]

Only playing!

It is a film.

[Nina]

I know
Is it from the 70's?

[MrRottweiler]

Yes its from the 70's.

[Nina]

Hmm, this is turning from the film quiz to "10 Questions..."
err... is that Tim Robbins in the pic?

And most importantly, isn't there any other pic we could see?

[MrRottweiler]

Its not Tim Robbins. I'll upload another pic but the robots are helpful as they've not been in another film. One of them was offered the lead role in The Gladiator but the pay wasn't adequate!

[garyp]

got head ache now trying to look at it

[elvaago]

That's an older question, garyp. Please read the latest posts to find the new question. Hint: It has two robots in it.

Wild stab in the dark - 2001: A space odyssey?

[MrRottweiler]

Its not 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Heres another pic of the main character trying to teach the service drones how to play Poker!

Is that Jeff Bridges in the pic? Looks a little similar, can't quite make it out.

[MrRottweiler]

Its not Jeff Bridges. I don't want the actor to be really obvious as that will pretty much give it away.

[Nina]

Is it Silent running?

[MrRottweiler]

Is it Silent running?

It is indeed!!!! Well done. The robots pictured are Huey and Duey. I assume when the pic was taken the third robot, Louie, was at the blackjack tables. He'll never learn!

The actor is Bruce Dern.

Your turn Nina.
