Orc With Thumbs Up Smilie Well, this is a maniplation of DumbCharades which I hope we all know very well.

Anyways, here we will think of a movie(English only, plz), give the number of words it has and then write 1 or 2 sentences which hint at the movie's name indirectly.

For example, If I say:
4 words.
I'll be off in a minute!.

The movie is "Gone in 60 seconds".

I hope you have understood!

So here we go: 3 words.
I won't be dying today!

The winner gets to write about the next movie!

"I'll die Tomorrow" is a Mickey Spillane book, but I don't know if it was ever made into a movie.

Yes, 12 monkeys was the right answer!

You never heard of it?
It's a movie with Brad Pitt and Bruce Willis. The story is about a virus that has destroyed the world and killed almost everybody. A few people escaped and now live under the earth surface. They send a criminal (Bruse Willis) back in time to try to prevent the outbreak, but they focus on the wrong things.

Still thinking about your last description Lord_aragorn

Midnight Cowboy, (1969) with John Schlesinger, Dustin Hoffman, Jon Voight, Sylvia Miles, John McGiver, Brenda Vaccaro, Barnard Hughes, Ruth White (II), Jennifer Salt ...

So try two words:

"Greets" is the first;

Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong......
Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong......Dong...... is the second.

Boron
atomic symbol, B, boron is the 5th element in the periodic table (atomic number 5) with an atomic weight of 10.81. A group III element boron is an acceptor in silicon, i.e., makes silicon P-type. Boron is the most commonly used P-type dopant and has a relatively high diffusivity compared to arsenic and antimony, common N-type dopants, and a diffusivity and similar to phosphorus, another common N-type dopant
.

If boron was a hint to something computer related, give me a hint, will you? There is just too much to choose from.

I can perhaps reveal that the children are rather passive. Someone else is doing all the hard work, and it marks them for life.

3. hint: (come on, it's not that difficult) Smile Smilie

The second word is a name. It sounds the same as what the children is by sweating others, but is written differently. Also a German physicist with first name Max but not Planch have a family name like what the children is. He once said:

Quote:
If God has made the world a perfect mechanism, He has at least
conceded so much to our imperfect intellects that in order to predict
little parts of it, we need not solve innumberable differential
equations, but can use dice with fair success.

Well in 1963 I had my first and last course which delved into very rudimentary’considering how much they have learned and had to unlearn since then’"quantum mechanics". So your German physicist is Max Born the coiner of the term. He with his subordinates Werner Heisenberg and Pascaul Jordan developed the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which says, "The more precisely the POSITION is determined, the less precisely the MOMENTUM is known"

So second the word is "born". The third is an "identity"

May I have the envelope please? And the winner is .... "The Bourne Identity" starring Matt Damon or was it Richard Chamberlain?


Someone else may give us another one.
