    Every time this quiz comes around, I hope for "Coconuts on Snow" to be included. This time it finally happened! 😆

    "The Uncatchables" is also the german title for "Now you see me", though the title has a double meaning here. And we also have "Airplane" named "The unbelievable journey in a crazy airplane"
