The Greatest Showdowns in Cinema
Now, we don’t get paid to plug specific events on Unreality, but I’m going to go ahead and do this one for free, because even the promotional image for it is something I thought would be worth posting.
It’s an exhibit from Scott C. who has recreated over 200 different showdowns from movies for this collection, and we can see some of his most famous ones above, and I expect you’ll recognize a large number of them. Off the top of my head I see, Star Wars, Edward Scissorhands, Jurassic Park, Kill Bill, The Birds, Fargo, Jaws, Supersize Me and Offic e Space. If you name every single one on this page, I’ll be extremely impressed. And hey, if you’re in LA, feel free to stop by this exhibit in a few weeks to see them all.
Apparently my first comment didn’t load, so I’ll try again:
Rocky
Karate Kid
Beetlejuice
Men in Black?
I Know What You Did Last Summer
Office Space
Blues Brothers
Bad News Bears

Rocky Horror

Impressive but you did miss a few. The first one you said not sure to is labyrinth, not sure about the balloon one. The one you said was aqua teen hunger force is actually supersize me. And thats weird science, not return of the jedi.
Think I got the ones Bert missed/ got wrong…
Young Frankenstein (Not MIB; had to go to his website to see the full picture)
Labyrinth
The Red Balloon (had to Google, so I kind of cheated)
Super Size Me (not ATHF)
Jason and the Argonauts (not Spartacus)
Weird Science (not RotJ; part where Lisa turns Chet into a blob thingy)
Good point Sam. I’d have made better guesses with a larger version I assume.

To be completely honest, the only ones I didn’t recognize were “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” and “The Maltese Falcon”, both of which I have yet to see. Also, without seeing a full image, the one that people seem to think is Young Frankenstein, looks more like “Seven.” However, without seeing the full image, that’s my best guess.
Great Post! I wish I could go to this event.
Great story guys.
But, on a side note..I love this site but every time I click on a picture or certain links it sends me to a stupid ad. I understand you guys have to make money..but this is getting ridiculous and makes me not want to come here anymore. Ads on the side and stuff is fine..but your faithful readers shouldn’t have to exit out of windows for every link on your site..it’s tiring.
