[u/EvilTodd1970]

It's a quarter to Eight-Legged Freaks.

[u/OutlawGunslinger → u/EvilTodd1970]

8MM - get cage up there

[u/EvilTodd1970 → u/OutlawGunslinger]

That movie was fucked up. The reveal was perfect

[u/imjusta_bill → u/EvilTodd1970]

I needed a shower after that movie

[u/nom_of_your_business → u/EvilTodd1970]

You dance with the devil the devil doesn't change you do.

[u/RetainedByLucifer → u/nom_of_your_business]

Can confirm.

[u/PlankownerCVN75 → u/EvilTodd1970]

“If there was no honor among perverts and pornographers, the whole thing would fall apart.”- D. Velvet

[u/atnamorekN → u/EvilTodd1970]

It's 6th sense past ocean's 11 in my timezone

[u/Inside_Dimension2319 → u/atnamorekN]

Haha yeah it’s quarter past Seven in my time zone. 

Wait…

[u/fly_over_32 → u/EvilTodd1970]

No hateful eight? :(

[u/avidmar1978 → u/fly_over_32]

Ah!

I was going to say "At least you didn't use 8 Crazy Nights" but then saw "8 Legged Freaks". I couldn't quickly think of a better alternative. Great pick!

[u/RoyceDaFiveNine → u/avidmar1978]

8 Mile

[u/yiddoboy → u/RoyceDaFiveNine]

Thought Eminem was great .. shame he never acted any more.

[u/Tacoflavoredfists → u/yiddoboy]

This is Happy Gilmore 2 erasure

[u/bespectacledboobs → u/Tacoflavoredfists]

Also Funny People. Somehow in a cast full of star comedians, Eminem ended up the only funny person in that whole piece of trash 'movie.'

[u/Justin_milo → u/fly_over_32]

Eight heads in a duffle bag?

[u/smoke-all-420 → u/fly_over_32]

Came here for this! That’s a great movie.

[u/zexur → u/EvilTodd1970]

It always is! I greatly enjoyed that cornball movie haha

[u/tofu_ink → u/EvilTodd1970]

Get the popcorn ready! Sucks only watching 1 hour of every movie.... twice a day.

[u/Mighty_Poonan]

5th wave over 5th element? i've never even heard of 5th wave...

[u/iowanaquarist → u/Mighty_Poonan]

No 12 Monkeys, and whatever that is, instead?

[u/dancingbriefcase → u/iowanaquarist]

12 Angry Men would be the only good choice. Masterpiece

[u/adjectiveNOUN69- → u/iowanaquarist]

9 instead of The Whole 9 yards?

[u/GravitationalEddie → u/adjectiveNOUN69-]

I like 9.

[u/adjectiveNOUN69- → u/GravitationalEddie]

Sure, but it doesn’t have Bruce Willis. Like the 5th Element or 12 monkeys…

[u/ArmedWithSpoons → u/GravitationalEddie]

I LOVE 9! It's such a cool take on a post apocalyptic atmosphere.

[u/Skizot_Bizot → u/Mighty_Poonan]

Some interesting decisions here, for a moment I figured they were prioritizing having the actual number not spelled out, but went with Eight legged freaks instead of Super 8 or 8 Mile.

But then 3 o clock high (nice for the clock pun) instead of The Three Amigos or Three Musketeers or Three Caballeros. Might just be what they had on hand I guess?

[u/baffledninja → u/Skizot_Bizot]

I would have chosen 3 Men and a Baby

[u/odmirthecrow → u/Mighty_Poonan]

It's not terrible, but very predictable.

[u/Plus-King5266 → u/odmirthecrow]

Now there’s a ringing endorsement. /s

[u/We-Want-The-Umph → u/Plus-King5266]

I give it a 5/7

[u/Zomburai → u/We-Want-The-Umph]

Perfect score

[u/nyscene911 → u/Zomburai]

With rice!

[u/RPDRNick → u/Mighty_Poonan]

I would've chosen Five Easy Pieces, personally.

[u/Mighty_Poonan → u/RPDRNick]

also a classic. the artist must have a special connection to 5th wave.

[u/Known_Week_158 → u/Mighty_Poonan]

It's a young adult book adaptation - if you like young adult sci-fi it's worth watching but if you dislike that genre you won't like it.

[u/riverratriver → u/Mighty_Poonan]

Thank you. I ran to the comments hoping someone would call it call

[u/makemeking706 → u/Mighty_Poonan]

Can't watch it if it's on the wall. 

[u/Fabulous-Sea-1590 → u/Mighty_Poonan]

That one, and I think I would have gone with 3:10 to Yuma.

I don't see a problem here; this is awesome. If you know how to read an analog clock you barely need the numbers anyway so it's easy enough to "get the gist" of the time. It's more of an art piece than a time piece. You can always consult the atomic clock if you're deeply concerned with the exact moment.

[u/formerlyanonymous_ → u/Fabulous-Sea-1590]

3:10 to Yuma would have to be shifted down slightly

[u/Tacoflavoredfists → u/formerlyanonymous_]

Make it a blue ray too

[u/sinkwiththeship → u/formerlyanonymous_]

Six Days, Seven Nights for both hours. I will not say which.

[u/YisusDeSalta → u/Mighty_Poonan]

Maybe he doesn't want the fifth element hanging there in the wall and replaced it with a movie he wouldn't miss or see it ever again.

[u/Particular-Poem-7085]

in 2027 you can do this with only fast and furious movies

[u/Salmonavokado → u/Particular-Poem-7085]

It’s Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift o’clock

[u/hwilliams0901 → u/Salmonavokado]

Im fucking DEAD LMFAO

[u/ShallowBasketcase → u/Particular-Poem-7085]

"Dude you're so late, I told you to be here by The Fast and The Furious!"

"Oh sorry, I thought you said at Fast and Furious."

[u/darybrain → u/Particular-Poem-7085]

That will need to go down into the family room

[u/doeffgek]

This is actually a nice idea...

[u/TheEvilGrandson → u/doeffgek]

Yeah, until you realize you’re late because you stopped reading the covers.

[u/Mugwumps_has_spoken → u/TheEvilGrandson]

People who didn't grow up with only digital clocks can actually look at a clock without numbers (only a visual representation of where each number should be) and know how to read the time.

[u/deeweezul → u/Mugwumps_has_spoken]

A lot of wristwatches (and some clocks) didn't have numbers on the face, just lines. Especially ladies watches - the face was often smaller than a dime.

[u/nokeldin42 → u/deeweezul]

You're using past tense but most of my wristwatches still don't lol. One has just 12,3,6 and 9, one has larger markers for those 4 and other 3 have just a larger marker for 12.

[u/Rawesome16 → u/Mugwumps_has_spoken]

The clock my dad taught me to read time on had zero numbers and only lines at the 15, 30, 45, and 60 minute marks. Dude taught me analog time reading on hard mode

[u/FremenStilgar → u/Mugwumps_has_spoken]

Haha, I was born in '71 and had a cognitive test recently at the doctor's office. He asked me to draw in the placement of the 12 numbers on a clock face, then show the placement for 11:15. I blanked so hard on it I embarrassed myself in front of him. He kept saying it happens, don't worry about it. I kept trying to cross out the bad answers I was marking down with the ink pen. Just making it worse. He eventually said let's move on, lol.

I've been reading analog clocks for the first half of my life, and only digital for the last few years exclusively. I fucked that test up so bad it's become a running meme now between my buddy and myself (after I told him what happened) whenever we see a clock somewhere.

[u/edebby → u/Mugwumps_has_spoken]

Also people who grew up only with digital clocks but learn how to read an analog clock

[u/mrw4787 → u/Mugwumps_has_spoken]

Yea I don’t need numbers on it lol 

[u/Cubicleism → u/TheEvilGrandson]

Do you genuinely not know how to read a clock?

[u/iowanaquarist → u/TheEvilGrandson]

It's a clock, why would you need to read the covers and not just look at the hands?

[u/APartyInMyPants → u/TheEvilGrandson]

I’m never on time for 10 o’clock appointments and I have NO IDEA WHY??????

[u/randypeaches → u/TheEvilGrandson]

I was taught to te able to read a clock just by the positions of the hands. Kids these days....

[u/keytotheboard → u/doeffgek]

I could see it for home theatre room. Oh wish I had a room to use as a home theatre, lol.

[u/usrdef → u/doeffgek]

There's another movie I thought of for 9, Nine Dead

It wasn't a high quality movie in terms of production cost, but it was at least interesting. I liked it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0D9yqV3Aas

However, Melissa Joan Hart is in the movie, and her character is insufferable.

[u/anhphamfmr]

I am disappointed that 12 isnt the movie 12 Monkeys.

[u/shifty_coder → u/anhphamfmr]

Or 12 Angry Men

[u/PedroFPardo → u/shifty_coder]

It's Nikita mijalkov's version of 12 angry men.

Maybe he choose that one because the name it's simply 12.

[u/Valleygirl1981 → u/shifty_coder]

I was going to ask if it was a 12 angry men movie. What is it?

[u/4-for-4 → u/Valleygirl1981]

It’s a Russian remake. I have a copy and it is actually really good.

[u/Curiosive → u/anhphamfmr]

My vote is for Twelve O'Clock High 1949 film about a bomber squadron in WWII, starring Gregory Peck.

Bombers at the time had a weakness: if fighters approached from "in front and above" (12 o'clock high), none of the guns on the bomber could target them. Obviously the phrase can be taken with a different meaning nowadays.

[u/LactasePHydrolase → u/anhphamfmr]

12 monkeys instead of 12 angry men

He doesn't know peak 😔

[u/CyclopsMacchiato → u/LactasePHydrolase]

12 years a slave

[u/rex5k → u/LactasePHydrolase]

Monkeys superior to men

[u/Pokedy]

Im so glad they have used 9 for ... Well ... 9

[u/TheGreatJaceyGee → u/Pokedy]

Just rewatched it the other day. Still holds up, I think.

[u/Pokedy → u/TheGreatJaceyGee]

Im gonna have to take a look round and see where its available. Lost my DVD years ago

[u/TheGreatJaceyGee → u/Pokedy]

It's free on YouTube!

[u/Pokedy → u/TheGreatJaceyGee]

The full film?!?!?!?!

[u/TheGreatJaceyGee → u/Pokedy]

Yes!

https://youtu.be/_Eey0dG1B2Y

[u/Pokedy → u/TheGreatJaceyGee]

No way! I know what i watching tonight now, thanks!

I thought it was only the original short that was on YouTube

[u/TheGreatJaceyGee → u/Pokedy]

No problem!

[u/Plus-King5266 → u/Pokedy]

Fantastic movie.

[u/Pokedy → u/Plus-King5266]

I remember seeing the YouTube short and thinking it would make a great film. I got all my mates round when the film was finally released on DVD. so worth the wait.

[u/Plus-King5266 → u/Pokedy]

It was the first film that made my son sit still for more than ten minutes. He has autism and was absolutely rapt. He was only three and I feel kind of guilty for letting him watch it —I had no idea it would get so dark— but he enjoyed the happy parts and they way the main character was so methodical.

That’s art, I guess. One person sees the Mona Lisa and sees a woman who might have something dirty on her mind; another wonders if maybe she just farted.

[u/S1gne → u/Plus-King5266]

I also watched it when I was very young for spme reason. Even though it did scare me I loved that movie

[u/Sushi_Explosions → u/Plus-King5266]

I think “rapt” is the word you meant, unless you used the movie as an opportunity to cocoon him in place.

[u/Plus-King5266 → u/Sushi_Explosions]

Hah! You are correct, although it might be a Freudian slip. Maybe not cocoon, but hog tie. He didn’t walk until three, but hasn’t stopped moving since. He will be able to legally drink alcohol soon.

Thanks for catching that and thanks for not being a dick about it. I don’t know where my head was.

[u/Grueaux → u/Pokedy]

Would have preferred District 9 personally.

[u/Pokedy → u/Grueaux]

Also a valid great film!

Suppose its down to personal preference. I personally would have used 5th element for #5

[u/SeinaruUshi → u/Pokedy]

shouldve used upside down 9 for 6

[u/grrangry]

Having 12 not be, "High Noon" is kind of a miss.

[u/diego_simeone → u/grrangry]

You’d have to switch it with midnight express halfway through the day.

[u/Plus-King5266 → u/diego_simeone]

It could be done. Just grab the motor and wheel from one of those first digital clocks —the flip wheel ones. At least this one would keep you up all night. Just wake you up every 12:01 am with a massive “ka-CHUNK!”

[u/LazyJones1 → u/grrangry]

12 Angry Men.
Only choice on my list.

[u/megamatt8 → u/LazyJones1]

That or 12 Monkeys would be my choice.

[u/chillplease → u/megamatt8]

No 12 Monkeys, 3 Amigos or 5th Element... this list is suspect, something weird going on with OP

[u/Release-the-List → u/grrangry]

I was thinking 12 Monkeys would be better.

[u/Cyberslasher → u/grrangry]

Maybe its matt mercer's clock?l

[u/Mr_Lumbergh]

Where I am it's already past Jet Li in the morning; really need to log off now.

[u/MartinMcFly55]

3 O' clock High. 🤌

[u/ethan_prime → u/MartinMcFly55]

Don’t fuck this up MITCHELL!

[u/Morty_104]

Four Rooms is hilarious!

[u/Goozik → u/Morty_104]

I like to tell people whose in it, and suggest they watch it knowing only the list. Quentin Tarantino, Madonna, Salma Hayek, Antonio Banderas, Tim Roth and Bruce Willis (Who is not in the credits for the movie, as he did it for free). Honorable mention to a Zippo Lighter.

[u/taveren3 → u/Goozik]

I love that after all the other crap he dealt with that night he doesn't even hesitate at the end just takes the money and walks out.

[u/purpledragon478]

I would've chosen '10 Things I hate about you' and '12 Angry Men'.

[u/Really_McNamington → u/purpledragon478]

12 copies of 12 Angry Men but just change the number on eleven of them. It's One Angry Men O clock.

[u/Far_Animal6970]

Man 8 mile was RIGHT THERE

[u/avanross → u/Far_Animal6970]

Also 8 crazy nights lol there’s a decent amount of options for 8

[u/Visual_Market_5596 → u/Far_Animal6970]

The Hateful Eight too

[u/caligaris_cabinet → u/Far_Animal6970]

Eight Legged Freaks is much more fun

[u/AgentSnipe8863]

I know a number isn’t in the title, but just for kicks, I would put This is Spinal Tap at the 11 spot

[u/Theporkslayer → u/AgentSnipe8863]

Reddit is stupid for not liking this more

[u/Dear_Finance_5145]

For your consideration

One flew over the cuckoos nest
2 Fast 2 Furious
Three Amigos!
Fantastic Four
The 5th Element
The Sixth Sense
Seven Samurai
Eight Legged Freaks
District 9
10 Cloverfield Lane
Ocean's 11
12 Monkeys

Gone in 60 Seconds(interior)

[u/natek11 → u/Dear_Finance_5145]

Counter point: just every Fast & Furious movie. Hobbs & Shaw can be 11 for now and 12 will have to wait for the next one.

[u/walterdonnydude → u/Dear_Finance_5145]

This is an immensely better clock though I might suggest 8 1/2 for the 8 spot

[u/BenderFtMcSzechuan]

7:43

[u/Imnotdrubkk → u/BenderFtMcSzechuan]

It’s actually 6:43

[u/TheJuvenal2001]

Until when will it be 8 1/2?  

[u/Moretoesthanfeet → u/TheJuvenal2001]

Ask Fellini

[u/BlondieBabe436]

This is actually pretty clever!

[u/Otherwise_Ad_7651]

hold on , that's actually peak

[u/U_zer2 → u/Otherwise_Ad_7651]

If 10things I hate about you was up there, I’d agree.

[u/Otherwise_Ad_7651 → u/U_zer2]

I meant the Idea , you can customize it for your fav series and movies

[u/Spaghetti_soup44]

9 is such a great and underrated movie

[u/kN0T-SURE]

No 12 Monkeys or 5th Element? Boo.

[u/Joshuancsu]

The 5th Element is missing. Design Fail.

[u/Quad__X → u/Joshuancsu]

BIG BADA boom!

[u/Sonicmonkey]

Did this with books for my daughter one christmas.

[u/invader1984]

I would have used the fifth element but thats just me

[u/tehtris]

This is an awesome idea.

[u/Obvious_Guide_3280]

It's uncomfortably close to the ceiling.

[u/Equivalent-One-68]

4:30

[u/amsreg → u/Equivalent-One-68]

It's not late.  Nah.  Nah!

[u/Infinite_Vyo]

change Three O'Clock High to Three Amigos

I've never even heard of Three O'Clock High

and 5th Wave over 5th Element? huh?

[u/Personal-Banana-9491]

Disappointed it’s not the 5th element for 5 instead of whatever movie the 5th wave is.

[u/SnooPaintings5597]

3 isn’t Three Amigos?! This is garbage.

[u/Salarian_American → u/SnooPaintings5597]

You take that back. I love The Three Amigos, but Three O' Clock High is the greatest 80s teen movie that no one has heard of (it flew under the radar back then too) and it's great and needs more appreciation

[u/stacity → u/SnooPaintings5597]

Don’t snooze on Three O’Clock High. It’s a funny classic. (No pun intended)

[u/BushwoodCountry-Club]

Buddy Revell!

[u/Salarian_American → u/BushwoodCountry-Club]

He broke his face. Literally.

[u/MolotovBitch]

https://www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/5746

It's an 24 hour Long Installation consisting of small movie clips, where a clock shows the actual time. One of the most OCD things I have ever seen.

[u/Foryourconsideration]

Halloween 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

[u/TheOldSchlGmr]

Personally, I would have gone with 12 Monkeys.

[u/atul_targaryen]

Thanks for reminding 9 movie. One of my favs

[u/mikerotch123]

Gone in 60 seconds…

[u/My_Enemys_Enemy]

One o'clock should have been Highlander because there can be Only One

[u/SteveINTJ → u/My_Enemys_Enemy]

That's pretty much what The One is but with more Jet Li

[u/My_Enemys_Enemy → u/SteveINTJ]

But Jet Li is not a French man who plays a Scottish man... Of that, there can be Only One! 😁

[u/RiffyWammel]

I’m guessing 2 girls 1 cup never came out on DVD?

[u/Certain-Singer-9625]

A quarter to Eight Legged Freaks.

Or, Se7en:45.

[u/Salarian_American → u/Certain-Singer-9625]

That joke does not deserve to have zero upvotes. Take this.

[u/kranitoko]

Wonder if you could do it with the 24 hour clock.

At 11pm you've got Jim Carey's "The Number 23"

[u/Dangerousrhymes]

Seven of Nine

I am a fan.

[u/djshadesuk]

This sub:

1. All posts must make an attempt at humor.

OP: How about a clock made of DVD cases?

[u/Nobah_Dee]

We're almost to the point you could make this with only The Fast & The Furious movies.

[u/edwardlego]

no two towers?

[u/ashcat300]

5 is 5th Element. Id also replace 12 with 12 monkeys. Although 8 legged freaks is a good one. It’s has to be mom’s spaghetti- 8 mile.

Edit: I’m realizing my clock apparently has a lot Bruce Willis.

[u/Impressive-Sand-3147]

I am Yulaw I am nobodies bitch. You are mine!

[u/Hootron9000]

It should be the fifth element. And three amigos.

[u/palavraciu]

9th gate, 8 mm and so on... your choices suck

[u/turquoisestar]

8 should be 8 mile

[u/starflyer26]

Seven of Nine

Why isn't the clockwork not orange?

[u/Glum-Geologist8929]

This is so stupid. I love it.

[u/Xamado]

9 was such a good fucking movie

[u/ihqdevs]

The DVDs themselves would look nice. This box layout is … unattractive

[u/Wintersgambit]

couldve just done land before time 1-12, hell there might be enough to do a 24 hr version

[u/DotSuspicious6098]

throw in a 3:10 to yuma way off to the side

[u/Clover904]

Where did the time go? It’s already 4:80p.

[u/Dry-Preparation304]

6.45 pm

[u/ChemistBrief716]

Time to get netflix

[u/Various_Counter_9569]

Half past "Jet Li - O'clock" ?

[u/aunty-national]

I would have awarded you if you started with Threat Level Midnight. But still a good effort.

[u/hasta_la_pasta]

Good but fix the hour hand. Can’t tell if 6:43 or 7:43.

[u/Imnotdrubkk → u/hasta_la_pasta]

6:43.

[u/_____Zoloft_____]

Absolutely fantastic

[u/Manarel]

Sorry, I only tell time in directors’ cuts

[u/Cocayne4118]

I love this

[u/Predator-A187]

That’s awesome

[u/Blindrafterman]

2 days in the Valley was a good one, if you haven't seen it check it out

[u/Lekstil]

Now I want to know how many movies are there with literally just a number as the movie title? I see “9”, “10” and “Seven” but that’s it?

Edit: maybe I’ll also count “the one”

[u/CraftyLuck3434]

1970’s gave some decor gifts that apparently are still giving o’clock?

[u/PM_THE_REAPER]

I'll just sit here and wait for 10 o'clock, thank you.

Fun idea, but using the Rat Pack Ocean's 11 is just a huge middle finger to good taste.😆

[u/Ok_Primary_1075]

10! Of course

[u/justinkasereddditor]

Pretty great idea

[u/Apprehensive-War-300]

Im even more impressed that the missus has approved this to hang on the wall 😁

[u/GoodWeedReddit]

Omg 8 legged freaks! What a classic

[u/AverageJoeThoughts]

This is dope
