Excellent choices. I'll throw in Mother (2009), Bong Joon-ho's (Snowpiercer, The Host) story of a mom taking care of her mentally challenged son.

You are up.

Of those uncommon Mothers, it was either Alien or The Avengers (1998). As far as modern movies go, trivia goes the same way as what I said in //www.city-data.com/forum/movies/2251391-there-something-very-familiar-about-face.html
...........mine is better with older movies than those in this century.

Okay, easy one: three movies with a gun in a box of roses.

Off the bat, I can only think of two - one of which is sans roses.

Well, then, maybe this question may last the weekend when we should be away from our computers anyway.

Okay, we're back for the week and since I've been playing James Bond villains in another thread...........

............"The question still stands, Mr. Bond, asked by the gentleman concerned."

Three movies with a gun in a box of roses.

Three movies with a gun in a box of roses.
The Godfather;
Terminator 2: Judgement Day;
(and this one I'm not 100% positive) Hard Boiled.

GOOD! EXCELLENT!

And actually, I was looking for T 2 and Hard Boiled.

According to IMDB on Hard Boiled Trivia:

"Using the shotgun in the rose box was an original idea in both this film and Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991). It is a coincidence that they both came up with it at the same time. Its appearance in this film is not a reference to or a copy of "Terminator 2". It was used in two influential earlier films: Dog Day Afternoon (1975) when Al Pacino's character brings a rifle into the bank, and before that in Stanley Kubrick's film noir classic The Killing (1956), when the gang smuggles their heist gun into the track locker room hidden in a box of roses."

You're up!

Hmm...this one should be fairly easy. Name three movies where the protagonist is menaced/haunted by an imaginary rabbit.
