NASCAR! YEEEEE HAW!

#3 - Career Defining took me a few minutes. . .

#2 for me :) RockinKemosabe nabbed the #1 position.

@skidd:   Didn't even think about that - you're totally right.

@skidd: That actually gave it to me lol Thanks! :D #15

@finaldasa: You got it - nice! Man, for a good minute there I was looking at it, thinking 'Did I Heart Ladybirds come out in 2005...'. Needless to say, it seems pretty obvious now.

Arrgghh.  #26.  Not so good today.  Once I bothered to look at the picture for Career Defining it was very obvious.  Lesson learnt there, I think.

I need more hints again. [That's what happens when you still have cartoons on the mind.] :(
EDIT: I already found the pest mentioned. :P

@bigheart711: For which part? 

@skidd:  I need three more "kings".

@bigheart711: Have you got the 3 from a 2006 comedy? It's got an actor who played the world's most well known Kazakhstani.

@Maysin: The actress' first and second name begin with the same letter. More recently, she better known for her run ins with the law than for making movies. Once you find the actress, you should be able to figure out the film pretty quick.

#61, Nice. 

#62 here checking in

@bigheart711: Just remember if your not first your last.  Or Shake and Bake.

Did that just blow your mind?

#71. I suck at racing movies.

That was actually a little difficult for me as my mind kind of blanked and apparently the fans of Nascar fail as making lists with good movies and reliable links when it comes to films of a Nascarian nature.


As I thought about racing movies though it reminded me of an anomaly that I ran across some years ago. Did you know that in the middle of making a bunch of psychologically disturbing and highly symbolic horror films David Cronenberg who apparently is a huge fan of car racing made a racing film called Fast Company? Neither did almost anybody else.

I have yet to track down a copy of the film, but from what I've read it's not all that great with a lot of very cliche characters and quite a bit of hammy acting, but for car nerds it's supposed to be very interesting as apparently Cronenberg so overdoes his nerdy interest in cars that shots of them racing and all the technical razmatazz involved reaches what is often described as an almost fetishistic level of detail and is very well shot.

Just one of those random "the more you know" things.

#167 -  So pissed that  "Career Defining"  took me so long >:(

Coming in at a slow #191. I've been a bit busy and only figured out the Nascar actors after reading skidd's helpful clues.
