Where did the jewelry go? Frank has shown profound memory loss and confusion through the entire film, including just before the passing of the note when he asked his son how he was liking Princeton, a college from which the son had graduated fifteen years earlier. Why should we believe he has the location of the jewels right? The way I read the son's response is "the old man's got another pointless guess about what happened to the loot." |

What 70s or 80s scifi movies had cyborgs? The description is so broad that this could even be The Six Million Dollar Man; his eye was a camera and the character is lifted from a book called "Cyborg". |

Why did Atom indicate that he could understand Max at the beginning of Real Steel? I suppose DavRob60 deserves some of the points, but you found it, so I'm giving them to you. Thanks. |

Why did Atom indicate that he could understand Max at the beginning of Real Steel? Yup. The film-makers hint at the robot's sentience several times. Perhaps it was something like Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang (in the book, not the movie), where the lavish attention paid by a new owner somehow embued him wih life. |

How did Sherlock survive the fall? I am glad to see this series get some traction here. Wasn't there an odd scene at the start of the episode in which Watson gets a letter full of unidentified powder? I assumed it would be a clue to something but I think it was never referred to again. |

“She did her best to convince me that she was still in love with me” You seem to presume that Ilsa loved Rick and that Rick knew it. Perhaps she had grown past her pre-war infatuation with Rick, and he knew it, and he was telling the truth to Laszlo in Casablanca. |

Which audience was targeted by “Scarecrow and Mrs. King”? Recall that at the time the series was aired, most American families had access to new programming on only thee networks; with few exceptions, programs tended to pursue broad audiences. |

What year was The Warriors (1979) first shown on TV or cable? I am pretty sure it showed on the Z channel before 1983, but only on the basis of personal recollection. |

First movie with product placement? Not your answer, but perhaps of interest -- I was struck the other day by by the blatant and extremely crude product placement for Cheerios in Superman: The Movie (1978). A box of the cereal is the focus of two or three screens, lovingly lit as the music swells, logo always to the camera. I will never remember the name of the actor who plays the young Clark Kent, but I certainly know what he ate for breakfast. |

What was the first movie to use a cross-cutting technique like The Hours? Interesting. I had thought Birth of a Nation was first. You learn something new every day. |

Seeking a sci-fi movie with a laser pistol and an amulet I'm equally guilty, I saw the thing and remembered it well enough to answer. On the positive side, I think that's the first time I've even been credited with answering a question on StackExchange. |

What was the first crossover movie like The Avengers, using only movie franchises? Freddy vs. Jason (2003) and King King vs. Godzilla (1962) , then. There are also countless examples on television. |

Identify an old movie about analyzing a dream I agree, 'Wheel as gun' is either Spellbound or somebody quoting Spellbound. It's a famous sequence. |
