    That was pretty awesome if I may say so, @QBranch. I liked that suggestion.

    Just something for a laugh, not a serious suggestion.

    For the one above, I can get the last 4 images here, but struggling to explain the first few.

    So it's Valentin Zukovsky:

    Val (Lewton)
    Ent (LOTR tree)
    teen (JBJr)
    zoo
    cough (syrup)
    ski

    @QBranch I'm gonna go with Switchblade, as used in DAD.

    An easy one.

    (switchboard - board) = switch
    +
    (razors and blades - razors) = blades

    switch+blades

    Okay some more. Language skills helpful, but not essential to solve these I'm thinking.

    Last one solved has the floor.

    If you have to know Chinese, I don't think I'm going to get those last two, haha, but I'll take a crack:

    1. Dead last (unsure of the Bond connection though)

    2. Meteor (???-ET-R)

    3. Halle Berry (HAL 9000-???-bear-e)

    Good thinking on those @Some_Kind_Of_Hero, especially #1 and #3.
    469fff9298fcaa47cd893d6e37942c2227bb2edb.png
    #1: Same concept, looking for Dead End, can be related to dialog in these films.
    • TLD: (M wants you out at the Blayden safe house.) Right. Looks like it's a dead end here anyway.
    • LTK: (Oh, God! It's Heller!) Yeah. Looks like he came to a dead end.
    • DAD: (It's been fun.) Well, the fun is about to come to a dead end.
    • QOS: (Tell her Slate was a dead end.) Slate was a dead end.

    7dac9dd94563d3c9fa13d615bd242afb997f6ab7.png
    #3: Halle Berry is correct (Hal 9000, 李/"Lee" Chinese character, Bear of Microsoft origin, letter "E").

    I'm also realizing there's a poorer quality but better image of Bear I could have used.

    For #2, knowing the name of the green character can be key. Of course the Chinese character can also help.

    Ohhh, just got it. Very clever.

    Hans Zimmer

    That must be the character for "han," hence the plural + Invader Zim + R.

    I was unfamiliar with the Microsoft connection for #3. I thought the "bear" had to do with providing or presenting.

    #2 is a go: Hans Zimmer, you got it @Some_Kind_Of_Hero.

    Not sure I presented the Microsoft item so artfully, but I figured a person recognizing Hal 9000 would get the Rebus.

    Looking forward to your item, @Some_Kind_Of_Hero.

    This was fun, like solving a crossword puzzle. You learn some things as well.

    There's no way I'm doing a rebus after this, I'm spent!

    Edit: In case I wasn't clear

    Very good, @mattjoes! Major props for decoding the whole thing!

    Cleaning up a few details:
    • The pink liquid is "tube" (how you leaf me tube Burn)
    • The swirl is "whirled" for "world"
    • The "singular" is for "a whey"
    • Jean-Baptiste Say, French economist
    • The picture between "Tom" and "roe" is "or"
    • "You've" was a tricky one: "euphoric" minus "Auric"
    • The plant bristles are "awn"
    • The rams are butting for "butt ewe B.E.T. Yor LIFE"
    • The snake is "Sss" for "Sss-pie"

    Well that was epic @Some_Kind_Of_Hero, and got the detailed solution it deserved.

    If I'm reading you right @mattjoes you're spent and the board is open. So I have these two.

    #1 is Helga Brandt.

    Is #2 Blades?
  • RichardTheBruceRichardTheBruce I'm motivated by my Duty.

    #1 is correct as Helga Brant. (Hell, Lady Gaga, Brant goose.)

    #2 I was looking for something else, @Dragonpol. (Your suggestion of Blades is excellent, part of my thinking is they're not all blades.]

    Yes, I thought I'd take a stab at it but I wasn't sure it was right.

    My second guess for #2 is:

    "I think he got the point." (from Thunderball).

    Another interesting notion, @Dragonpol, but no.

    I can say what I'm looking for isn't limited to blades and points. Subjectively, it's what I first thought of when I saw the image.

    Yes, I thought it was a longshot but I decided I'd try it. I'll have to think again then! :)

    I might have guessed Knives Out, but that doesn’t seem to fit your second clue.
