No hints! NO HINTS!

Here's a few I'm half sure and half unsure of, coming in late, cleaning up.

974-4 - The Artist
982-2- The Royal Tenenbaums
983-3 - There Will Be Blood
984-4 - Swingers
985-5 - Breaking Away
991-2 - Kingpin

Getting closer!

These are right:
974-4 - The Artist
980-8 Reanimator
982-2- The Royal Tenenbaums
983-2 The Bad News Bears
983-3 - There Will Be Blood
983-6 White Men Can't Jump (I googled some keywords and it came up pretty quickly)
983-8 The Muppets
984-1 Slingblade
984-4 - Swingers
984-7 The Cable Guy
985-5 - Breaking Away
988-1 - Ford v Ferrari
993-8 - Mirror Mirror

And these were wrong:
974-2 Peggy Sue Got Married
974-4 is definitely Orson Wells, I just don't know what movie or why I think that.
975-3 Steel Magnolias
976-6 Kalifornia
976-6 Natural Born Killers
977-4 Ghost World
978-1 The Kingsmen: The Secret Service
980-4 Requiem for a Dream
981-5 Frost/Nixon (or whatever it was called)
982-8 Ronin
983-3 Wyatt Earp
991-2 - Kingpin

134 Correct! Only 66 remain.

[I'll get to labeling the masterlist.]

973-6 something wicked this way comes
974-3 - Angel Heart - or some other movie with a devil figure, thus the snake.
975-4 - a Melissa McCarthy movie? saw that in an ad
981-2 Never been Kissed
990-4 Forbidden planet

Many others are familiar but not coming to me.

Wooo! Stan finally got Never Been Kissed and Forbidden Planet! Those are part of the group that I was able to recognize myself before looking at the answers. There's still 5 left that I knew that I'm surprised no one has named. [For the record, I only had 60 of them right on my first guess.]

And I'm not handing out hints quite yet, but when I do, I think the first hint is just going to be a list of invisible actors without telling you which stars go with which movies.

990-6 - I keep thinking Easy Rider, but it looks newer.
991-2 - 21 Jump Street
991-7 - Coach Carter?

971-5 Kyle - I know this is a horror movie. I've seen it fairly recently. I can't for the life of me remember what movie.
993-5 Might be a hunger games or something similar. The person is tied up there is some sort of dictator in the background.

Not sure on these, but here are some guesses:
983-5: The Peanut Butter Falcon
986-7: Platoon
990-1: Alive
991-4: American Graffiti
991-7: Hoosiers

Something Wicked This Way Comes
Never Been Kissed
Forbidden Planet
Peanut Butter Falcon
Platoon
Alive
21 Jump Street
Coach Carter

I'm not at a good computer for updates, but I'm sure those are all correct.

975-4 is not Melissa McCarthy
990-6 is NOT Easy Rider

I'm pretty sure the others are wrong, but I'll have to check.

981-6 Hobbs and Shaw
994-6 Big Momma's House
994-6 Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps

971-5 Rubber
971-5 Mad Max Fury Road
971-5 The Hills Have Eyes

I think the first hints we should have are the dates the invisibles were posted-- it will give me an idea of what movies were being released around then, which can help with lesser known releases, or if there were themes.

981-1 gives me Bill Murray in "Little Shop of Horrors" vibes
991-1 - Kingpin (put -2 by mistake)

Wrong ones:

971-5 Mad Max Fury Road
971-5 Rubber
971-5 The Hills Have Eyes
971-5 Kyle - I know this is a horror movie. I've seen it fairly recently. I can't for the life of me remember what movie.
...It IS a horror movie. I've never even heard of it. I'm sure you've seen it.

974-3 - Angel Heart - or some other movie with a devil figure, thus the snake.
975-4 - a Melissa McCarthy movie? saw that in an ad
...NOT Melissa McCarthy. You definitely saw this in the ad.

990-6 - I keep thinking Easy Rider, but it looks newer.
991-4: American Graffiti
991-7: Hoosiers
994-6 Big Momma's House
994-6 Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps


RIGHT ones:
973-6 something wicked this way comes
981-1 gives me Bill Murray in "Little Shop of Horrors" vibes
981-2 Never been Kissed
981-6 Hobbs and Shaw
983-5: The Peanut Butter Falcon
986-7: Platoon
990-1: Alive
990-4 Forbidden planet
991-2 - 21 Jump Street
991-7 - Coach Carter?
993-5 Might be a hunger games or something similar. The person is tied up there is some sort of dictator in the background.
...993 is broken, so I can't check it, but an image search says it's a Hunger Games movie. I'm counting it.

For the record 993-4 is the only one that I don't know and can't find anywhere.

And I don't even count this as a hint, but since Kyle asked... 970 starts Oct 7th, 2020, and then they go weekly, skipping only October 28 and Dec 9. So there was no Halloween themed set this year, but the other themes are marked.

991-1 is Kingpin (third time's a charm?) I found the scene in question on YouTube.

971-5 Wrong Turn
971-5 Chronicle (didn't I already guess that for another one?)
971-5 Brightburn

971-5 Revenge

986-4 Arthur
986-6 Network
987-3 Super

988-8 Porky's (did I already guess this?)
991-1 It's Pat
991-8 Rosemary's Baby
992-3 Pulp Fiction
993-4 The Girl Next Door

987-7- I feel like that's Johnny Depp in one of his goofy roles.

OH SHIT!
987-3 Death Race 2000- I couldn't think of anything but Spaceballs, but then it hit me. AHAHAHAHAA!
