| Posted: | | | | I'm doing a project where I'm collecting clips of various activities, and I'm having a hard time thinking of suitable movies or TV shows. So I'm starting this thread to ask for ideas. See my next post for the first kind of movie I'm looking for. Thanks in advance. KM | | | Tags, tags, bo bags, banana fana fo fags, mi my mo mags, TAGS!

| Posted: | | | | The first kind of scene I'm looking for is examples of someone being tackled. Not sports. Just a regular person getting tackled in their living room or someplace normal like that.
Thanks!

| Posted: | | | | I have only one film in mind but typical situations for this are weddings in comedies (where more than one person tries to catch the bouquet).
Another situation would be where people try to get something rare - "Jingle All the Way" with Arnie springs to mind. | | | Karsten DVD Collectors Online

| Posted: | | | | Thanks DJ, I'll look through Jingle all the Way. One image that I have in my head, and that I know must've happened in many movies, is someone being tackled onto and over a couch. Any movies in particular springing to mind for anyone? Also, I'm looking for something that fits this description: "There is a SMOKE EXPLOSION at Annie's and she comes to the window without a scratch, but covered in black dust." Now, keep in mind I'm not looking for something that fits it EXACTLY, just a kind of non-firey explosion and the character in it appearing unharmed. More slapstick than violence. Thanks again.

| Posted: | | | | For the second movie I'd say Blues Brothers there are enough explosions, where nothing happens to Jake or Elwood (especially where Princess Leia bazooka's Elwood's sleeping place). | | | Karsten DVD Collectors Online

| Posted: | | | | What about the Naked Gun movies? I believe Leslie Nelson tackles the Queen in one scene and an umpire in another... (Okay, not exactly "normal people in a normal place...") |

| Posted: | | | | Thanks for the input everyone. Much appreciated.
New question:
Does Magneto and Wolverine ever fight in any of the live-action movies? If so, which one?

KM (My 10 year old helped me remember: ) X-Men: Wolverine gets tossed up to the torch of the Statue of Liberty and tries to attack Magneto. Magneto stops him with his magnetism. Then Cyclops blasts Magneto's machine. The Last Stand: Wolverine tries to attack Magneto, but he once again stops him with his magnetism. The Beast attacks Magneto. | | | Last edited: by CalebAndCo |

KM Just watched Absent-Minded Professor where the school football team was called in to tackle the guy (Alonzo) that was gaining 8 inches after every bounce in the street with fireman and police standing around ..... | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird.

| Posted: | | | | Try "Tango and Cash" for the tacke over the couch. One tackes the other over the sister (I cannot, for the life of me, remember which is Tango and which is Cash, but it is Sylvester Stallone tackling Kurt Russell over his sister) | | | <---------Mithrandir, Laverne and Shirley Caroline |

Or a different one? KM | | | Tags, tags, bo bags, banana fana fo fags, mi my mo mags, TAGS! Dolly's not alone. You can also clone profiles. You've got questions? You've got answers?

KM Scrubs has tackles on almoust every episode. At least one DVD set had also a compilation of the tackles on the extras. |

KM This is indeed the one I am talking about! Why? I fast forwarded through the movie looking for the scene, and that was the only one I could find. It wasn't quite what I was looking for, which is fine, but I just wanted to make sure I'd found what you were thinking of and that there wasn't some other tackling scene I missed. Thanks.
