First and Last: Tattoo Lady
Glenn here for more fun and games. Can you guess the movie from the first shot after the credits and the final line of dialogue?
First shot:

The last shot was of the film's lead actress so that was a no-no. Instead, we'll go with the final words spoken.

First and Last: Waiting Room
Glenn from Stale Popcorn here to provide some fun and games in Nathaniel's absence. We're going to start with an easy one. I think the longest ever F&L comment thread came from one I did so I hope I can come up with one as good while he's away!

And the last image before the end credits sequence:

First and Last, Far Away
first and last puzzles. Can you guess the movie?
first image:
last line:
This one took a while for people to guess. It's such a good movie. The answer is [highlight the invisible text] BURNT MONEY (2000) from Argentina. Really intense crime drama about "the twins" who aren't twins but gay lovers. You should rent it.
