  • In the movie, there is a man resembling Charlie Brown
 
  The Primordial Ocean 
  •   Steven Soderbergh made a remake of this heist movie in 2001.
  • The answers are the eleven main dudes of the movie.
 
  Expendable Assets  
  • "Whoever wins, we lose"
  • "Get over there, to that propeller driven vehicle"
 
  A Real Slick Crew
  • The bad guys from a "warm" movie
  •  Jeff Gerstmann would like to see one of these actors play Lynch from Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
 
  Too Many Secrets
  • The main cast from a movie named after a very popular form of footwear

Cheers man :D i got a feeling that the quests here are gonna be a little tougher (for me anyways) my film knowledge aint quite up to scratch as my game knowledge!

I got these pretty easily myself but good hints. Nothing too obvious for the most part. I do take issue with the "A Real Slick Crew" set, not because of the hints or anything but because two of these guys weren't really part of the crew. Now if I could just figure out the rest of the horror set other than Kurt Russel's biggest fan (which by the way was a little confusing as Kurt Russel was only in one of those films IIRC).

I figured them all out but the last one. Thanks for the hints, they were perfect. #32 not bad.

@D34dM4n: 
Sssssssssssssssnaaaaaaaaaaakesssssssss: involves the cast of a certain Tarrantino film.
A Real Slick Crew: is the cast of a crime movie that really turns up the "heat"
Expendable Assets: are all prey to a certain "Hunter"
Too Many Secrets: is the cast of a film, that is another name for shoes.

Anyone have a hint to #6 of A Real Slick Crew?  I thought I had them all but evidently not.  I'm tired of clicking on each blasted actor in the blasted list for the specified movie.  *ugh*   
 
Any help is appreciated.

@MrPink: His first name is the Same as the actor who plays the lead role in "water world", and his last name is the first name of the kid in Pet Cemetary.

@Caligula:
Regarding your hint for Too Many Secrets, with your hint, are you saying the name of the film is a different name for shoes, or is it a brand of shoes?

The guess I had was the film started with the letter "C" and the last name of the movie ended with the word that describes what we breathe.  Checked out the actors, no luck.   
Either I'm wrong or maybe there is a bug?  Hate to ask for hints I SHOULD get this on my own but I'm coming up empty.

@MrPink: it's a type of shoe, not a brand.

@Caligula:
D'Oh!!!  I actually thought that but for some inane reason I went another route.  The cartoon and the description with the little black box made me think of another movie.  Nice job by the site for misdirecting me!  Ha!!    
 
Thanks again.  Guess I will have to "be quiet" now.

Edit:  Nevermind I'm an idiot.  I got it.

Any Real Slick Crew clarifications? Im still  drawing a blank.

Oh crap ok. RE: Real Slick Crew, I had the right movie, I just needed to delve deeper into the cast list. 
 
Jim Gaffigan mentioned this movie in his act many years ago when joking about seeing movies after everyone else had seen them, if it helps anyone.
 
Ironically, I still have not seen it.
