Here’s something cool for you: The Action Film Alphabet. It’s part of a series called the Friday Project, by British web designer Stephen Wildish.
How many movies can you identify?

I got 19 off the top of my head. I could probably stare at it for a while and come up with a few more.
Keep staring. We await further messages.
Snarky!
Sorry, I think S is Sherlock Holmes.
Eldest Son: I think A might be Air Force One. (Which featured a 747.)
And if J is Jack Reacher, I count three Tom Cruise movies to only one Harrison Ford. How’d that happen?
I had Air Force One as well. Y is You Only Live _Twice_.
Correction:
A – Air Force One
U – Under Siege
V – Volcano
I am disappointed at the absence of lava.
Is V really Volcano? That could be virtually any action hero rescuing a damsel in distress. Where is the substance that can only be described as lava?!
Could it be V for Vendetta?
I think V is The Vampire Lovers.
