Yes on both!

7 is inconceivable!

[identity profile] 42itous.livejournal.com 2007-04-21 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I do not think that word means what you think it means.

7. The Princess Bride
9. Wallace and Gromit?

Yes, and
Sorry, wrong breakfast machine. The confusion is deliberate, though. :D

1. American Beauty
3. The Breakfast Club

(also had 7 and 8)

I think I like your taste in movies!

[identity profile] tmcay.livejournal.com 2007-04-21 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I had:

1. American Beauty
2. Dead Poet's Society
3. The Breakfast Club
4. ?
5. Breakfast at Tiffany's ?
6. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
7. ?
8. When Harry Met Sally
9. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang ? (Pee Wee's Big Adventure also has a breakfast machine, but I can't think of a bomb reference)

You are correct on #s 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8.

#6 is not a Harry Potter movie.

And apparently the theme of breakfast machines appears in a lot of movies. #9 is actually my favorite movie, and nobody has guessed it yet. Maybe [livejournal.com profile] thedan knows it.

For breakfast machine I would have said Back to the Future (since Bomb fits).

[identity profile] 42itous.livejournal.com 2007-04-21 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope, that's not it either.

[identity profile] neilfred.livejournal.com 2007-04-23 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
No one has guessed Beautiful Mind for 4...

No breakfast machine ideas.

[identity profile] 42itous.livejournal.com 2007-04-24 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, sorry, not A Beautiful Mind. This one is more obscure than that. And more British.
