4. "I cried like a baby. A hungry angry baby." Serenity
5. "We'll get there when we GET there!!" The Incredibles
6. "It's not a dress, it's a kilt, you sick-o!" How the Grinch Stole Christmas
7. "Weee are goeeeng to DIE!" Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Guess which movie each quote comes from with the # and we'll keep score. Whoever wins this one posts their own 20 quotes and so on. This is kind of like the itunes top 20, but not.

Ready, GO. (This is a very girly list, for the most part.)

I'm pretty sure 7 is in Toy Story (in sid's house) but it may also be in Finding Nemo (can totally hear Marlin saying that).

I know where #14 is from.

Go here, hit ctrl + F, type "clapped", hit enter.

Posted by Baron Samedi (Member # 9175) on :
 
Is #3 Breakfast Club?
 
Posted by Baron Samedi (Member # 9175) on :
 
#7 is from probably a good 20% of all movies. But, just picking one at random, let's say Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

As long as we're going along the lines of 7 and 14 though, maybe next time you can add "Cover me, I'm going in" or "We've got company" to the list. [Razz]
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
#12 strikes me as being from Dennis the Menace, for some reason...

#8 is from Bruce Almighty...maybe...

"There's a double meaning in that."

I'm pretty sure that's a line from Much Ado About Nothing.

Also, I knew the one from Princess Bride, A Bug's Life, and You've Got Mail.

Movies I wish I had quoted: So I married and Axe Murderer, Napoleon Dynamite, Toy Story and some others.

Is 3 "Crazy Summer"? ? I love that movie.
 
Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :
 
#15 sounds like it was from this movie I saw a few years ago, but I have no idea what it was called. It was about some kid that runs away from school with his friend...I really don't remember anything beyond that. I don't even remember if I saw the whole thing.
 
Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :
 
And how are we supposed to know 14? There must be a million movies that uses that line or something like it.
 
Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :
 
I have a few... I'll post my 20 in the morning [Smile]
 
Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
 
*sniffs* If Annie were here, she'd get 14. I guess it's a sappy girl thing.

Gaal, you're sort of kind of close-ish about 15. I guess.

3 is not "crazy summer". It's from a Tom Hanks movie.
 
Posted by unicornwhisperer (Member # 294) on :
 
I know this one...... ooo ooo....
 
Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :
 
So it was probably from the movie I'm thinking of? Can I get half a point? Pretty please? [Wink]

Is 3.... "The Money Pit"?
 
Posted by unicornwhisperer (Member # 294) on :
 
6 isn't "So I married an axe murderer" is it?
 
Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :
 
If 3 is from a Tom Hanks movie and she said she wished she quoted Toy Story, it's obviously not from Toy Story. That narrows it down to a whole bunch of Tom Hanks movies [Smile] . CSI here I come. [Wink]

[Embarrassed] I sort of VERY quickly looked at movies Tom Hanks made... I probably shouldn't get that one. [Embarrassed] Eventually I may have, because I just watched that movie a couple months ago.

Here's my list. I tried not to duplicate the ones Narnia posted and to use very familiar/popular movies. They are in rough chronological order, even within the categories. It oughta be easy. I tested it on a coworker and he got about half of them.

15) we should file that one under "educational", too...
The Shawshank Redemption

16) He wasn't right in the head
Braveheart

17) F%^& Hitler!
Saving Private Ryan

18) yeah... I like "dags"
Snatch

19) Ecce homo!
Passion of the Christ

20) I give a damn, sir, because a good man once made me responsible for what was most precious to him in the whole world
Batman Begins

Bonus obscure quote:
I can't believe I'm robbing the vatican. The nuns at St. Agnes predicted this.

Kasie has our first miss, with a good guess. Wrong era though...
 
Posted by prolixshore (Member # 4496) on :
 
Ok, these are guesses based on vague recollections.

3. Odd Couple?
14. Indiana Jones - I don't know, I remember Harrison Ford saying it. Let's go with the third one since it is at the end of your list. Last Crusade.
I think 4 might be from Patton, but it's been several years since I've seen that, and I may be confusing it with something else.

I was aiming for the horse...I know this, and it's killing me that I can't come up with it. I'm gonna slap myself as soon as someone guesses it.

Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :
 
Those are all correct... I think I have to give Blues Brothers to Porter because he got it here first.

Prolixshore and Enigmatic with 6 each... who will break the tie?

19 could be a whole lot of movies, but I'm guessing Passion of the Christ

Okay, I do too have a guess. Just because it looks like latin or something, and the chronology is about right, I'm going to guess 19 is Passion of the Christ.

Okay, here we go with the next round. I tried to get something of a mix here. Included in my 20 is some comedy, some horror, at least one Oscar-winner and even a documentary! Some of it should be easy, though I think this may be a bit more obscure overall than Jim-Me's list. But what do I know?

Oh, and #17 is one of the Jason movies, probably Freddy v. Jason.
 
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
 
I know it BECAUSE I heard after seeing AoD I wanted to find out where it was from originally.

Oh, and I haven't seen Manos the Hand of Fate, but it was brought up at a party once and 5 people at the same time said, "The master would not approve."
 
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
 
#17 is indeed Freddy vs Jason.

I was the only person in my college circle of friends who had actually seen The Day the Earth Stood Still before AoD was even released. Some people refused to believe me that it was a reference!

And I congratulate you on having NOT seen Manos. Wise decision, that.

And yes, you should know the "your eyes" quote. I'm betting the majority of the people on this forum have seen that movie.

And...I can't believe I just now thought of it, I've got the movie on DVD, #12 is from Life of Brian.

I couldn't get past thinking of that quote as being by Edgewood Dirk in one of the Landover Novels. The animated clue forced my brain out of its rut.

And with that, I'm out, because nothing else except "them/us" is at all familiar.

11. "The Ballet, a bunch of anorexics leaping around men with bulging genitals! Oh, I hope I'm not arousing you." - Maybe As Good as It Gets

Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
 
As Good as it Gets is not it, though it is an interesting guess.

(Oo, you edited! Bill and Ted's is NOT the movie that I was quoting, but I can't guarentee that the same line isn't also in it.)

There are 6 left, so it's possible for somebody to overtake Dag. What's left is pretty wide ranging, though, so I'm not sure how likely that is. I'll probably post hints later tonight, and if they're not all figured out by morning call this round for the leader.

Okay, here are some hints for the remainders.

#5: This is not a very long movie, but the title is even shorter.
#8: The line is from one of the few movies that's a remake by the same writer/producer as the original movie. It's a little tricky since it's not in the original, but they're both such good films it seemed fair game.
#9: This one's the documentary. It had its own thread on hatrack not too long ago.
#11: If I had to pick one of these that nobody is going to get, this would be it. If you've seen the movie, this line should be enough to easily know it. But I'm not sure if any of you have seen the movie.
#16: Just the opposite. I know a lot of you have seen the movie, but this isn't the most memorable line from it. It was tough to pick a line that wouldn't be far too easy, as this is an incredibly quotable film.
#18: Goody guessed 12 Monkeys. That isn't it, but Brad Pitt is the one who said this line.

I feel a little bad about this one, but I can only think of two movies (and to be honest, I'm not completely sure that one of them is a remake instead of a sequel) that fit the description, so I'll give them a shot.

8 - Either Desperado or The Night of the Living Dead.

2. "These men do not want a happy ship. They are deeply sick and try to compensate by making me feel miserable. Last week was my birthday. Nobody even said "happy birthday" to me. Someday this tape will be played and then they'll feel sorry." --Dark Star

11. "Whupped by a one-eyed white boy..." --Cadence

12. "You're saying... it's my fault the Earth is being destroyed?" --Flash Gordon

13. "Brilliant. Well done, thank you so much. Especially for shooting him right between the eyes so that it doesn't look like an accident." --Fierce Creatures

14. "See mommy picking the big lock? Someday, when you're a big girl, she'll teach you how to pick locks. Of course, she may still be picking this one." --Undercover Blues

15. "I know things about pigeons." --In the Line of Fire

16. "The burning is at last at hand. The day of doom is here; all that is evil, all their lies, your parents, your teachers, those who would call themselves your judges! Those who have lied and corrupted the Earth, they shall all be cleansed." --Conan the Barbarian

#2 is similar to Alien, but is a comedy.

#10 involves someone with a gun calling a cop a pig.

#11 takes place during the Vietnam war, but in Germany.

The bonus question would have either been gotten right away or not at all. If one other person here has seen it I will be very surprised. Even Joe Bob Briggs hadn't seen the film last time I asked him, although if he had he would have *loved* it. It starred Shadoe Stevens as a mercenary-turned-cookie-entrepreneur who tries to cleans up a town from crime in order to finance his cookie business. I taped it off HBO in the late 80's.

Yes on 11. After Bean beats Webb in a basketball game. Lovely alliteration, that.

Is the bonus a movie called Small Time Crooks? It matches your hint, I think...
 
Posted by Seatarsprayan (Member # 7634) on :
 
No on the bonus question, I checked out Small Time Crooks on the IMDB, apart from a cookie business it doesn't seem too much like the movie I'm thinking of, which was made in 1988. Looks interesting though.

Alright, I just googled number 2 and that was a horrible hint to give for it. I haven't seen it in a few years so I didn't recognise the quote, but that hint sent me further away from it in guesses rather than closer.
 
Posted by Seatarsprayan (Member # 7634) on :
 
The hint I gave for #2 is from the mouth of the writer himself.
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :

Dark Star was written by the guy that wrote Alien. And he wrote it before he wrote Alien. He said Alien was basically Dark Star made scary. He also played Sgt. Pinback in the movie and said the given quote.

One more to go. How about some more hints? The question that prompts quote #10 is, "Is that gun loaded, boy?" and is said by a white police officer to a young black man who, along with several of his friends, are brazenly displaying rifles on a city street.

The bonus question starred Shadoe Stevens, and also had Priscilla Barnes (erstwhile of "Three's Company") and Robert Davi was the villain. And I keep hoping it comes out on DVD some day.
 
Posted by Seatarsprayan (Member # 7634) on :
 
More hints for #10: it's based on historical events involving Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton...

(For some reason I didn't expect this one to be that hard.)

Posted by Seatarsprayan (Member # 7634) on :
 
Yes on the bonus. Have you actually seen that movie? I never met anyone else who saw it before... even though as I said it was on HBO in the late 80s.
 
Posted by Flaming Toad on a Stick (Member # 9302) on :
 
Yippee, I finally got one. I saw the movie a while ago at a friend's house. It's the only movie I know with Shadoe Stevens in it.

For #15, think popular sci-fi movie.
 
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
 
Okay, I just googled 15, and there are like 5 different movies that use that quote. I know which one you're talking about now, but still..... bad quote.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
But if you've seen the movie in question, you'd know exactly what it was. If you paid attention, at least.
 
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
 
Hey, no Googling!!! LOL (although to be honest I have been tempted, I just haven't succumbed yet...)

I gave in and googled. I'm not posting my findings yet, though. And major groan when I saw 15 ... because you're right, when you know which one it is, it's obvious. I even know exactly the scene just from knowing the movie.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Well, it's said more than once in the movie too.
 
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
 
Now I'm gonna have to watch 15 tonight. [Smile] I've never seen the two animateds, so it makes sense that I didn't know them. Especially 7.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
It really is a good movie. I've got it on DVD. So is number 20, I own it too. I don't have number 7, but I've been trying to find it for awhile.

What about the other one?
 
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
 
that one I didn't google... I saw Michael Jackson and cowered in digust LOL

(googles)

No way!!! I didn't realize MJ was involved in that one.

And given the age and relatively focused target audience of #7, it may not be available on DVD yet.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Wait, wait, wait...I just noticed the "badges" quote is attributed to Blazing Saddles. While probably technically accurate, the quote was originally in Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Not that it matters, I suppose, but just so everyone realizes it was a reference.

I just looked it up on imdb: "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges."

Oh, and is "get out of my chair" from a Star Trek? Generations, maybe?

Nope.

The director's last name starts with G.
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
Ok, not cool. I just googled 15 and guess how many different movies came up on IMDB? Five. And that's just in memorable quotes.

And yes it was used in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

quote:
Q: Jean-Luc, it's wonderful to see you again. How about a big hug?
[Puts his feet up on Picards desk]
Q: Well don't just stand there. Say something.
Capt. Picard: Get out of my chair.

If you're going to make us guess quotes, at least pick memorable ones that are unique to the movie.

(I realize others did the same thing, but that just kind of annoys me. I mean come on!)
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Where's your sense of adventure? There's no reason to whine about it. If you've seen the movie, it's memorable. If you haven't, it's not.
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
Its not just directed at you, but a lot of the quotes chosen for the game so far haven't exactly been quotes you'd remember. They're obscure lines that could be from just about any movie.

Perhaps we should make a rule in future to try and pick unique and memorable quotes.

At least that way we wouldn't get stuck in situations like this with no one guessing several of them.
 
Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
 
Shall I end the round and put in what I found? I didn't want to cheat with it.

And as for the obscurity, I would think that if the quotes were too obvious, the game would go way too quickly, the same couple people would keep winning over and over, and it would all get boring too soon. I do agree that unique quotes would be appropriate, but I think there needs to be at least a little bit of a challenge.
Course, what do I know. It wasn't my game to start with.

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
It is a memorable line IF you've seen the movie. As noted by people who looked it up, they all remember the exact scene the line was delivered in the movie.

It's not an obscure quote. It's one of the least expected and amusing lines in the movie. So, go yell at someone else.

Hints:

#2 was inspired by the genre from which #11 came. #11 is the oldest movie on the list by far and won 2 Oscars with 9 other nominations. #2's quote was delivered by a Seinfeld regular.

Another quote from #19 is: "Congratulations. You're actually drinking, driving, smoking, leering and groping at the same time."
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
o_O Google failed on #2. Nothing came up. If I took away the quotes a billion things came up, but none of them looked like they matched.

Are you sure about that? Note: has answer to #2.
 
Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :
 
Thanks Alcon. I went back and checked a different source for the same movie and found the quote there was slightly different. So I pulled the movie and the line is this:

Corrected #2: At least with her you don't have to worry about forgetting her name. She's already forgotten it for you.

Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :
 
Alcon, #19 is a lot sweeter and more innocent than either of those movies (neither of which I've seen). The movie with the trashiest language (and themes, for that matter) of the bunch is #14, but is on my list of favorites because of the soundtrack.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Guesses:

11 sounds very noirish, and the most recent noir-inspired film I can think of is Man Who Wasn't There (for #2).

And for #11...hmm, I don't know; maybe Casablanca?
 
Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :
 
No for both, but you're on the right track. Like Casablanca, #11 won for Best Picture. But I should put it, "like #11, Casablanca won for Best Picture", because #11's film won first.

#2 is 10 years older than the Man Who Wasn't There, and stars at least three of the same actors from another movie on the list already identified. The already identified movie was nominated for 3 Oscars, winning only 1.

I've got a list all ready from Steve's round, but the bosses are cracking down on mid-day 'netting, so if the current round is done by the time I go to bed tonight, I'll post my list. Otherwise I'll wait for another opportunity.

Is # 16 from Notting Hill? I know I remember that conversation but I just can't quite place it.
 
Posted by FlyingCow (Member # 2150) on :
 
I was thinking 16 was from Pretty Woman, but I think you're right with Notting Hill. It's definitely striking me as something said to Julia Roberts.
 
Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :
 
katdog, it is from Notting Hill. That was one I thought would go first. Good job! (FC, Julia Roberts said it to Hugh Grant, whose character confessed that Whoopsidaisies was a medical condition he was getting treatment for. [Big Grin] )

# 11 -- Rebecca? (if that's right it's thanks to the hints!)

Aargh! I thought of that, but never posted it as a guess.

"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts" was in more than just the Lion King - it was recorded in the forties.
 
Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :
 
[Smile] Peter. I don't know that I would have gotten it with that quote, to be honest. It's been awhile since I last saw the movie. I considered "I'm not Margaret." instead, but thought that was a dead giveaway, if you'll pardon the pun.

I think #3 of Goody's list should be:

"I was born in the year four thousand five hundred and sixty two, the year of the Chicken."

Nitpicky, but that's the way it's said in the musical in which it appears. I remember it now, but only after Googleing to check my answer. It's not South Pacific. Or Mary Poppins.

Peter - Evie's at 9+ because Leonide beat her to Sweet Charity. (although considering I was doing math before being completely awake this morning, it was entirely possible... LOL. Thanks for checking it for me!)


15 is definitely not My Fair Lady or Mary Poppins, although I can definitely see why MFL would make sense.

Jeni, I was typing while watching #3, so maybe spelling it out would have made more sense.

If that's true then Leonide should be at 8, not 7; but Leonide ascribed Sweet Charity to #19 (not #14), so I'm surprised you're not giving it to Evie. Either way you cut it, the numbers you posted don't add up (9+7+1+2=19) [Wink]

No, Dags, #3 is not King and I. No duplicates on this list. (oh, and my Broadway-addicted girlfriend just emailed me, she couldn't figure out #3 either, so maybe that was a bad one after all)

Go bold the ones that have been guessed so we know... and from now on, can we make it so that if you've won once you can't win again for a while (though you can still guess, just if you win the second best gets it or something like that)... so the rest of us get a chance to post quotes? [Razz]

I don't make them bold, I put x's by them.

Edit: I was going to do it earlier, but there are some of us who have to go to church on Sunday mornings. So, I didn't have time to do that.

It's your turn, Lyrhawn.
 
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
 
Alright. I apologize ahead of time if these are all way too hard. I tried to do the non-obvious line from most of these movies, or personal favorites. I guess I'll have to wait and see how well it's received.

1. "The truth is you can never tell yourself there is only one thing you could be." - Keeping the Faith

2. "I'm calling the organization of the United Brotherhood of It's None of Your Damn Business, Lewis. I'll be with you in a second." - The American President

3. "This isn't where I parked my car." - Eurotrip

4. "Don't forget that most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich than face the reality of being poor." - 1776

5. "Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion." - Donnie Darko

6. "Are you coming? See, how it works is, the train moves, not the station." - A League of Their Own

7. "The Quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little, and it will fail, to the ruin of all." - Lord of the Rings - Fellowship of the Ring

8. "When what's left of you gets around to what's left to be gotten, what's left to be gotten won't be worth getting, whatever it is you've got left." - White Christmas

9. "We're not hit! We're not hit! Stop side-seat driving!" - Independance Day

10. "It is very rare that a person is taken for what they truly are." - The Last Unicorn

11. "I don't blame people for their mistakes, but I do ask that they pay for them." - Jurassic Park

12. "I only lied about being a thief, I don't do that anymore." - Ocean's 11

13. "My dad? He's always been...like an uncle to me. Yeah, Uncle Dad." - What Women Want

14. "Fifteen guys, with chains, and dogs, you should see what they look." - Undercover Blues

15. "Generals can do anything. There's nothing so much like a god on earth as a General on a battlefield." - Gettysburg

16. "We're sorta like 7-Eleven. We're not always doing business, but we're always open." - Boondock Saints

17. "I have a question. Why is it that we all speak in British accents, when we're from outer space where there's no Britain?" - Thumb Wars

18. "Would ya look at the size of that kid's head! It's the size of a planetoid and it has it's own weather system! Looks like an orange on a toothpick!" - So I Married an Axe Murderer

19. "Don't listen to that guy. He's trying to lead you down the path of righteousness. I'm gonna lead you down the path that rocks!" - Emperor's New Groove

20. "Well, I'm gonna get out of bed every morning... breath in and out all day long. Then, after a while I won't have to remind myself to get out of bed every morning and breath in and out... and, then after a while, I won't have to think about how I had it great and perfect for a while." - Sleepless in Seattle

Some are longer, some are shorter, but if there is any left after a couple days, I'll post a second quote from the same movie as a hint.

Almost forgot, I wanted to do a bonus question. What movie is this from: "normal view, Normal View, NORMAL VIEW, NORMAL VIEW, NORMAL VIEEEEEEW!!!." Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie (This Island Earth)

13) What Women Want

Just watched it yesterday, what a coincidence.

Some of those do sound mighty familiar, though...

Edit:

Oh, wait!

15) Gettysburg

Thanks for reminding me Calaban, you were close, just the wrong one.

(I swear, one cannot watch both Gettysburg and Gods and Generals within the same weekend and not speak in a southern drawl.)

I didn't realize until after I put the Gettysburg quote up that it'd point so many people to Gods and Generals, but I suppose it worked to misdirect some people.

The only two incorrect guesses from above are calaban's 17 and 15.

Nice job there L.

Now, regardless of who gets the last question, if anyone gets it, littlelf gets the next round. But for the sake of finishing it off: Here's some other quotes from the same movie for number 14:

"Look Morty, do me a favor, okay? Don't call here any more unless you want to have a serious conversation, alright?"

"Don't make any sudden movements."
"Why not? Is there a bee on me?"

"I want you to get up very, very slowly."
"Very very, not just, very?"

"Well nice to meet you Morty, my name is Jeff."
 
Posted by _L (Member # 9448) on :
 
ah jeez.

Undercover Blues! Soon as I saw Morty.

"My name is MUERTE."

Posted by littlelf (Member # 6145) on :
 
Here's my first attempt. FYI, I'll check back in after 7 pm PDT Wednesday to see how everyone is doing. Break a leg!

(X)1. Wow, he just made the international sign of the doughnut.

(X)2. Hey Pope, why don't you go build yourself a new gym at the Vatican.

(X)3. The next time I have a daughter, I hope it's a boy!

(X)4.It's like my ex-wife. 21 different personalities and 7 of them hated me.

(X)5. If we get caught, we're not going to white-collar resort prison. No, no, no. We're going to federal pound-me-in-the-a** prison.

(X)6. Hey, little anal-dwelling butt monkey. Time for you to go home, little buddy.

(X)7. I had to come to prison to be a crook.

(X)8. I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have sh** for brains.

(X)9. I'm sorry to say that the world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of robed sissies.

(X)10. When you put your hand into a bunch of goo that a moment before was your best friend's face, you'll know what to do.

(X)11. Goin' on a year now I ain't had nothin' twixt my nethers weren't run on batteries.

(X)12. Those of you lucky enough to have your lives, take them with you; however, leave the limbs you've lost.

(X)13. You see, drinking is a matter of algebraic ratio. How drunk you get is caused by the amount of alcohol you consume in relation to your total body weight. You see my point? It's not that you had too much to drink. You're just too skinny.

(X)14. We consider ourselves bi-costal if you consider the Mississippi River one of the coasts.

(X)15. It's like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black.

(X)16. I lied, okay? Welcome to Manhattan!

(X)17. I tell you one thing, though. Wherever we go, whatever we do, we're gonna take this luggage with us!

(X)18. 3 million men penned up on this island all over England in staging areas like this. We're on the threshold of the most crucial day of our times. 3 million men out there, keyed up, just waiting for that big step-off.

(X)19. I've eaten things that didn't complain this much.

(X)20. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my Uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog...

Bonus: Bunny, ball ball.

There's a little something for everyone here. Have fun!

NEW ROUND

Hopefully these haven't been done or aren't too easy. There are a few that I think are obvious and a few I think aren't. We'll see. Good luck

1.)I ain't done nothin' wrong by speaking to the gentleman. I've a right to sell flowers if I keep off the kerb. I'm a respectable girl: so help me, I never spoke to him 'cept so far as to buy a flower off me. My Fair Lady

2.)That's right. When I was your age, television was called books. The Princess Bride

3.)Congratulations. In the history of this camp, that was the most infamous, the most disgusting, the most revolting display of hooliganism we have ever had. The Parent Trap

4.)Uh, no. Sorry, but a toll is a toll, and a roll is a roll, and if we don't get no tolls, then we don't eat no rolls. Robin Hood, Men in Tights

5.)Tattoo on the lower back? Might as well be a bullseye. Wedding Crashers

6.)You too. Except when I dress up as a frigid b****, I try not to look so constipated. Legally Blonde

7.)You tell me where my suit is, woman! We are talking about the greater good! The Incredibles

8.)Let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. Devil's Advocate

9.)It seems to me the only thing you've learned is that Caesar is a "salad dressing dude." Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

10.)I have issues with anyone who treats faith as a burden instead of a blessing. You people don't celebrate your faith; you mourn it. Dogma

11.)What... like the back of a Volkswagen? Mall Rats

12.)I play hockey and I fornicate, 'cause those are the two most fun things to do in cold weather. Mystery, Alaska

11 - Does it count if I know the line that comes right before that one? What is it... Big Lebowski? Baseketball?

15 - Animal House

11- is wrong so far. I didn't think the line before that was apropriate. It's funny but inappropriate. And a couple here are questionable as it is.

I have absolutely no idea about the bonus question. Doesn't even sound familiar. But who knows, maybe I'll end up watching whatever it is tonight.
 
Posted by beatnix19 (Member # 5836) on :
 
the bonus is one of my favorite movies. In fact it was the 1st DVD I ever bought. Does that help?

We'll wait to see if JT knows it and then I can throw up a different bonus as a tie breaker for you two.

OK, vonk and JT. I like Lyrhawn's idea. email me three rounds of rock, paper, scissors. if there is a tie in round one, I'll use round 2 and hopefully we won't need more than 3 rounds. e-mail is in my profile.

I'll respectfully defer to vonk.

then I suppose the next round goes to Vonk. I'll leave the bonus up unanswered until the new list is posted then I will reveal the correct answer
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
Kuzah! Finally my turn. Thanks for the deferal (or deference?) El JT de Sprang.

Apologies all around if some of these are too obscure or too easy.

1)Information Transit got the wrong man. I got the *right* man. The wrong one was delivered to me as the right man, I accepted him on good faith as the right man. Was I wrong? -Brazil

2)See, you can't rewrite, 'cause to rewrite is to deceive and lie, and you betray your own thoughts. To rethink the flow and the rhythm, the tumbling out of the words, is a betrayal, and it's a sin, Martin, it's a sin. -Naked Lunch

3)Probably the most important thing is that when things get really bad and the world looks its darkest, you just have to throw up your hands and say "Well, alright!" cause it's probably gonna get a whole hell of a lot worse. -Cannibal: The Musical

4)Tell him the liberator who destroyed my property has realigned my perception. -Fight Club - Chuck Palahniuk

5)- Have fun, kid.
- Fun is my Chinese neighbor's middle name! -Rocketman

6)With a prompter in every cellar window
whispering comebacks, shy people would have the last laugh -Amelie

7)The doctor said it was pneumonia; because it happened some months later! During a flu epidemic! The doctors told me it was pneumonia, but I knew what it was! A VICTIM OF THE MODERN AGE! Poor, poor girl!-A Clockwork Oragne - Anthony Burgess

8)Your Commie has no regard for human life. Not even his own. -Dr. Strangelove

9)Ya smoke this sh*t so to escape from reality? Me, I don't need this sh*t. I am reality. There's the way it ought to be, and there's the way it is. -Platoon

10)Let me see if I've got this straight: in order to be grounded, I've got to be crazy and I must be crazy to keep flying. But if I ask to be grounded, that means I'm not crazy any more and I have to keep flying. -Catch 22 - Joseph Heller

11)Forget about holding her hand, man. Think about the damage he could do to other places. -Edward Scissorhands

12)I've been dead once already; it's very liberating. You might think of it as... therapy. -Batman

13)Joey, do you like movies about gladiators? -Airplane!

14)Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it.

15)Sally, that's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade into my tea and run off. -A Nightmare Before Christmas - Tim Burton (Kinda)

16)- What's a motto?
- Nothing. What's a motto with you? -Lion King

17)We're not in infinity; we're in the suburbs -I Heart Huckabees

18)Certainly, in the topsy-turvy world of heavy rock, having a good solid piece of wood in your hand is often useful. -This is a Spinal Tap!

19)Now you go feed those hogs before they worry themselves into anemia! -Wizard of Oz - L. Frank Baum

20)All of us are freaks in one way or another. Try being born a male Russian Countess into a white, middle class, Baptist family in Mississippi, and you'll see what I mean. -Even Cowgirls Get the Blues - Tom Robbins

Bonus: Many of these are based on novels. One point each for every original author you get.

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
#4 is from Fight Club, originally by Chuck Palahunik.

#3 is from Cannibal: The Musical, it's not based on a novel, I don't think, but it's by Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
Blackblade - 2 (unfortunately, A Nightmare Before Christmas was based on a poem, not a novel. Sorry.)

SenojRetep - 5 (nope, not Death Becomes Her) + 1

Jeniwren - 1 (Sorry, #2 is incorrect)

SteveRogers - 3 + 1 (Wow, I really didn't expect anyone to get Canibal: The Musical. Well done!)

What about me?

Edit:

I think there are similar quotes to 12 in a number of movies, so I'll take a crack at one of them:

Batman?

[Frown] I was aware it initially was a poem but I was operating under the premise that Burton still wrote a story version.

Isnt it true that it is a story written in poetic verse? Its still a STORY!

is (18) Hedwig and the Angry Inch?

Writing the storyline of a movie is not the same as writing a novel that a movie was based on. But, because it was based on a piece of literature:

BlackBlade - 2 + 1/2

Watched the movie after Fellowship of The Ring because I wanted to see something else with Ian Holm in it, pure luck I suppose. Also the author of the book (I used the internet) is William S. Burroughs

But, I guess at this point there is no way anyone can beat you at 8 1/2 points (and after I was so nice and gave you half a point).

Congraj... Nevermind.

Wow I can't help but confess the thrill of victory was sucked out with that [Frown] my apologies for breaking protocol with using the internet, just thought I'd be honest as I thought once the movie was posted the bonus point was off limits, I was not expecting to get a point for it, but I certainly was not attempting to remove point opportunities for others, you may diqualify me if you feel so inclined.

Also if it is my turn I must apologize by stating here that I wont be able to post my movie quote list until saturday at the earliest, possibly early monday morning, stay tuned til then, I promise to make my list interesting, all I can say is I hope you all have a healthy dose of foreign films in your blood.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
The funny thing is:
once BB posted "Naked Lunch" I immediately put in for the bonus point, claiming the author was Norman Mailer. I used the internet to verify, found out I was wrong, and immediately deleted the post out of embarassment.
 
Posted by Princess Leah (Member # 6026) on :
 
I say internet verification is kosher. I thought I had an idea for #6, so I googled. I haven't seen Amelie though, so I didn't post.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
If you had seen Amelie, though, would you have posted, even if the guess you were verifying was wrong? Verification is fine, IMO, as long as you understand that you should take yourself out of the running if you are wrong (regardless if you *think* you would have gotten it eventually; that happened to me with the Batman quote on vonk's list).
 
Posted by Princess Leah (Member # 6026) on :
 
No. Because that would be research. And that would be cheating. If I'd had more than one idea, I wouldn't have googled.
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
I agree that verification is fine, but if you found out you are wrong, you can't put the correct answer. Likewise, I assumed that if you had no idea, checking the internet was off limits. But it's whatever, it's just a game.

Don't worry BlackBlade, you aren't disqualified. Seeing as how SenojRetep wouldn't have gotten that one, he wouldn't have been able to pull of the two points to win anyways. So it's cool. No worries.

Sorry to suck the thrill out. You still guessed a whole lot of those and a couple that I didn't think anyone would get. Good job. Good job to all. I intentionally made it a hard list and was delightfully suprised that people got them. (Though I'm still disappointed that no one got Airplane II)

Only 4 points left, good guess Grimace. It appears that SenojRetep will pickup this round as even with all 4 remaining points no other player will catch him. I would really love to see the last 3 movies identified, and if they are not solved by tomorrow morning I will submit the answers. A preemptive congratulations to SenojRetep!

As for clues to the rest:

1) Look at Chinese Cinema, this movie is considered by many to be the BEST. Its worth "Living" to see.

4) Is from a cartoon movie but its not Disney. Don your thinking caps and think of what tail it might be.

semi gratz enigmatic. 4) is "An American Tail" the first movie in the series, Fievel Goes West was its sequal.

1) is a Chinese movie called "To Live" or "HuoZhe" I never get tired of watching that movie. Be warned it is a VERY sad story, but it tells a very important story. I recommend it to anyone.

TheGrimace: No there are not many films but many people have never seen The Mission regardless.

I pass the torch to SenojRetep.

1) Of course you don't know. You don't know because only I know. If you knew and I didn't know, then you'd be teaching me instead of me teaching you - and for a student to be teaching his teacher is presumptuous and rude. Do I make myself clear? Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

2) God made the angels to show Him splendor, as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But Man He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of his mind.

3) If I didn't have puke breath, I'd kiss you. The Adventures of Bob and Dough MacKenzie:Strange Brew

4) I've got the most scathingly brilliant idea!

5) Wish you'd stop bein' so good to me, cap'n. Cool Hand Luke

6) My cat can eat a whole watermelon. Rubin and Ed

7) You think I am brave because I carry a gun; well, your fathers are much braver because they carry responsibility, for you, your brothers, your sisters, and your mothers. And this responsibility is like a big rock that weighs a ton. It bends and it twists them until finally it buries them under the ground. And there's nobody says they have to do this. They do it because they love you, and because they want to. I have never had this kind of courage. Running a farm, working like a mule every day with no guarantee anything will ever come of it. This is bravery.

8) I miss him every day. I loved him like I've never loved a guy. And I don't love guys. You don't have an excuse, you quit. You quit, you gave up. He never quit on anything 'til it killed him, and that was his way, and there's much worse ways, and boy you sure found one. Always

9) You offend reason, sir. I should like to offend it with you. Peter Pan

10) What do they think I am? Dumb or something? Why, I make more money than - than - than Calvin Coolidge! Put together! Singin' in the Rain

11) Lord... whatever I've done to piss you off... if you could just get me out of this and somehow let me know what it was I promise to rectify the situation. Maverick

12) Oh, she is my dear, my darlin' one / Her eyes so sparklin', full of fun / No other, no other / Can match the likes of her. Darby O'Gill and the Little People

13) If he had guts to knock Mom cold once, then maybe she'd be happy and then she'd stop picking on him. Because they make mush out of him! Just mush!

14) Self-realization. I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, when he said, "I drank what?" Real Genius

15) -Anyway, David, when they find out who we are they'll let us out.
-When they find out who *you* are they'll pad the cell. Bringing up Baby

16) -I was thinking later, you could kiss me on the veranda.
-Lips would be fine. Three Amigos

17) I can hear you whisperin' children, so I know you're down there. I can feel myself gettin' awful mad. I'm out of patience children. I'm coming to find you now.

18) Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over. The Man Who Would be King

19) Edwina's insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase. Raising Arizona

20) Can I borrow your towel for a sec? My car just hit a water buffalo. Fletch

Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
I'm sorry, I guess I made this list a little too arcane. A couple of these, though, I'm surprised no one's been able to guess. Here are some hints:

2) (Additional Quote)Why Richard, it profits a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world... but for Wales?

3) (Additional Quote)Yeah. OK, well, uh, we found, uh, this mouse in a bottle of YOUR BEER, eh. Like, we was at a party and, uh, a friend of ours - a COP - had some, and HE PUKED. And he said, uh, come here and get free beer or, uh, he'll press charges.

4) I didn't know Haley Mills was Catholic!

7) This movie is a re-casteing of a Japanese movie, and was in turn re-caste (or, perhaps, parodied) by another movie on my list.

13) The dad spoken of in this quote is played by one of the cast members from Gilligan's Island.

15) Classic slapstick comedy from the 30s involving mistaken identities...of two leopards.

17) The main character in this movie has two antonyms tattoed on his knuckles.

Second round of clues (any ungotten by noon tomorrow will be revealed and I'll pass the torch to whomever is in the lead):

2) A fictionalized account of Sir Thomas More (MrSquicky would get this if he were around).

4) See Rosalind Russell as a nun!

7) Features many of the cast from The Great Escape, plus Yul Brenner!

13) Defines teenage angst in the 50s. Last film (of three total) for the main actor, who died shortly thereafter in a car accident.

17) The main actor from this movie starred in the similarly creepy Cape Fear (the original, not the remake).

Ungotten quotes:

2) A Man for All Seasons (I could give unofficial credit for this to fugu, who obviously knew)

4) Trouble with Angels: a very sweet story with Haley Mills as a wildchild at a Catholic school and Rosalind Russell as the long-suffering Mother Superior.

7) The Magnificent Seven: remake of the classic Japanese movie "Seven Samurai" and the inspiration for "Three Amigos." Great movie.

17) Night of the Hunter: Set in Depression Era mid-West, Robert Mitchum stars as a creepy itinerant preacher who leaves a string of murders in his wake.

You're right, BYSOAL. I thought it was Rebel that was released posthumously, but it was Giant. My bad.
 
Posted by BYSOAL (Member # 3846) on :
 
Heh, I originally guessed "Giant" after reading the clue, then reread the 50's teenage angst part, and promptly got very confused for a moment. Doesn't help seperate them out that his three movies were about a year or year and a half apart.

Posted by dantesparadigm (Member # 8756) on :
 
Yay! I won, now that I finally got a chance to get at them first. Anyway, I'm not sure where these are on the difficulty scale, they're all pretty popular movies, so we'll see.


1) That's thirty minutes away. I'll be there in ten.

2) - Good morning, Sergeant Major.
- How do you know what kind of goddamn day it is?

3) If you get a customer, or an employee, who thinks he's Charles Bronson, take the butt of your gun and smash their nose in.

4) I was the equivalent of a 98lb weakling. I would go to the beach and people would kick copies of Byron in my face.

5) Five thousand of my men are out there in the freezing mud. Three thousand of them are bloodied and cleaved. Two thousand will never leave this place. I will not believe they fought and died for nothing.

6) A shepherd must tend his flock, and at times, fight off the wolves.

7) Oh, and Senator, just one more thing, love your suit.

8) Yeah, sir, you might want to send a maintenance man over to that office across the way. The lights are off, and they must be looking for a fuse box, 'cause them flashlights, they keep me awake.

9) A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you're talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who's gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all night.

10) Any man with a collection like this is a man who's never set foot on a battlefield. To him a minie ball from Shiloh is just an artifact. But to a combat vet, it's a hunk of metal that caused some poor bastard a world of pain.

11) It's a ‘Jump to Conclusions mat’. You see, you have this mat, with different conclusions written on it that you could jump to.

12) The key to a woman's heart is an unexpected gift at an unexpected time.

13) Probably. But it's an easy fix. One line of dialogue. 'Thank God we invented the... you know, whatever device.'

14) That woman deserves her revenge and we deserve to die.

15) -That was way easier than I thought it would be.
- Aye.
- On TV you always have that guy that jumps over the sofa...
- And then you've got to shoot at him for ten minutes.

16) I don't recall him ever having mentioned a rabbit

17) A lordship and titles. Gold. That I should become Judas?

18) You're smart. I like you. I'll probably give you a nickname.

19) Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at. Most things in here don't react too well to bullets.

20) AK-47. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every *expletive deleted* in the room, accept no substitutes.

Perhaps a suggestion for the next round? Maybe have it so that at any one time you can only post three quotes you know. Then you either have to wait for someone else to post or wait an amount of time (say... 15-30 minutes?)

That way there's more competition and the person who sees the new list doesn't get the 'easy one!' advantage quite as badly.

Oh, and I think the idea of a maximum number of films guessed per hour is a good idea. However, I think it should be up to whoever is posting the list (and thus administering that round) to set specific rules for their list.

I agree that letting the person posting the list post the rules is a good idea.

You could perhaps assign point values to each quote based on how hard you think it would be to know. That might now work too well but hey who knows?

Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
 
Alright, in the sense of fairness, I'm going to let someone else do this round. I have maybe a fourth of a list done, for what I want to do, but I don't want to make the hardcore movie quote guessers wait for me to finish.

So, SteveRogers was second in the last round, I pass it on to him. I'll try and win another round later on, and in the mean time I'll work on my list.

If there's anyone who hasn't done a list yet who wants to (I know Alcon fits that category, but maybe others do, too) they should just jump in.

Meanwhile, just for something to do, we could play one and off. Here's a quote to get started. If you're sure you know the reference, don't wait for confirmation just post your own right in the same post (like the "Ask the Next Person Anything" thread). If you're just guessing, wait for me to confirm that you're correct, then post your new quote.

Time Bandits! I love that movie!

"I was in it, Emily. I was in that ultimate moment of terror that is the beginning of life. It is nothing. Simple, hideous nothing. The final truth of all things is that there is no final Truth. Truth is what's transitory. It's human life that is real"

2) "Supreme executive power comes from a mandate from the masses not some farcical aquatic ceremony." Monty Python and the Holy Grail - kwsni

6) "Well Stephen the bird's flightless? ...it's not going anywhere." Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World - Vadon

7) "I do, I offer a complete and utter retraction.

A Fish Called Wanda - kwsni

I'll hold to that little thing I suggested by only giving three answers at a time.

1) Cool Runnings
5) A Beautiful Mind (One of my favorite quotes)
6) Master and Commander

Since Luet got the first one...

11) October Sky

Sorry CMC, 17 isn't a League of their Own (thought that is a great movie). Do you know what 8 is from?

Close Edgehopper, 12 is not The Right Stuff, though there is a quote up there from The Right Stuff. 2 is Holy Grail but someone beat you to it.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
#12 is Apollo 13

Can't believe I missed that.

EDIT: And, with the above comment, I'm going to guess #13 is The Right Stuff. Don't feel I should get full credit if it is, though.
EDIT #2: Yes, it is. I remember the scene now.

HINTS:

3) "Very clever little boy. Very, very clever, to see that my friend and I are foreigners here, but of course not Russian, naturally. What would the Russians be doing on United States of America island, with so many animosities and hatreds between these two countries? It is too funny an idea, is it not? No, we, we are of course... Norwegians. On a small training exercise for the Nyaato countries--"
"NATO."
"NATO countries, of course, yes. Ah, to reach place of power motorboats it is necessary to make borrowings of automobile, for a short time only, sir."

8) "Strangers... I hate this. Do they want to share what they got or take what you got? Do you say 'hi' or do you blow them away?"

9) "Take a look at a castle. Any castle. Now break down the key elements that make it a castle. They haven't changed in a thousand years. 1: Location. A site on high ground that commands the territory as far as the eye can see. 2: Protection. Big walls, walls strong enough to withstand a frontal attack. 3: A garrison. Men who are trained and willing to kill. 4: A flag. You tell your men you are soldiers and that's your flag. You tell them nobody takes our flag. And you raise that flag so it flies high where everyone can see it. Now you've got yourself a castle. The only difference between this castle and all the rest is that they were built to keep people out. This castle is built to keep people in."

I couldn't wait! Here goes...

1) "We're going to need some more FBI guys, I guess."

2) "Human thought is so primitive it's looked upon as an infectious disease by the rest of the universe. That kind of makes you proud, doesn't it?"

3) "Pride is an abomination. One must forego the self to obtain total spiritual creaminess, and avoid the chewy chunks of degradation."

4) "Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man."

5) "Prepare for the fight scene!"

6) "Is he always this funny, or only on days when he's wanted for murder?"

7) "Danger always strikes when everything seems fine."

8) "Hard part's over. Now let's get these other piggies wiggling."

9) "I am the author. You are the audience. I outrank you!"

10) "I tell you one thing, though. Wherever we go, whatever we do, we're gonna take this luggage with us!"

11) "I've come for your TV. You've been using too much juice. Another 10,000 kilowatts again this month. Beats me how an old, homicidal loony can use that much power."

12) "Well, I, uh, don't think it's quite fair to condemn a whole program because of a single slip-up, sir."

13) "I must be crazy to be in a loony bin like this."

14) "I'm chaos, and he's mayhem. We're a double act."

15) "This little proposition doesn't entail me dressing as Little Bo-Peep, does it?"

16) "Ernest Hemingway once wrote, 'The world is a fine place and worth fighting for.' I agree with the second part."

17) "Wow, what a day, first that restaurant by the bay and then that, that play, that, that, that Oedipus thing. Man, I thought I had problems."

18) "Life, which you so nobly serve, comes from destruction, disorder, and chaos."

19) "So raise your hand if you think that was a Russian water-tentacle."

20) "Ok, now let's try to get an answer from someone who's not a complete retard... anyone?"

Just to reiterate... Googling, even just to check a guess is cheating. Make the guess, but touch google or IMDB and you invalidate yourself.

Nope, not allowed even for that. Post your guess, you'll find out whether or not your correct or not when they quote poster checks your answer. If you enter it into google at all, even if you're mostly sure, then you're not allowed to submit it as an answer.

There have been a few I was about 70% sure on. But not sure enough to post. So I googled cause it was bothering me. Even if I was right I would then not post, it was for someone brave enough to guess with out google to get it.

I basically post my answers and then Google the ones I was unsure of. If I don't know the answer and I google it I simply disqualify myself from answering those particular movies.

Most of the time I didnt know the movie and I had no chance of guessing right.

I am working on my list RIGHT NOW, stay tuned. [Smile]

Some of the quotes are long, but I just felt bad butchering them by shortening.

1)"It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again." (X) Silence of The Lambs, Seatarsprayan

2)"Let me make this very clear: this is your deal, not mine, so unless I have written authorization, this whole thing is over before it starts because I'm not going to be the only one left without a chair when the music stops. "

3) "And be grateful. Our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real. " (X) Red Dragon, FTOAS

4) "Our Father in Heaven, before we go into battle, every soldier among us will approach you each in his own way. Our enemies too, according to their own understanding, will ask for protection and for victory. And so, we bow before your infinite wisdom. We offer our prayers as best we can. I pray you watch over the young Jack Geoghegan. That I lead into battle. You use me as your instrument in this awful hell of war to watch over them. Especially if they're men like this one beside me, deserving of a future in your blessing and goodwill. Amen...one more thing, dear Lord, about our enemies, ignore their heathen prayers and help us blow those little bastards straight to Hell. Amen." (X) We Were Soldiers, Nighthawk

5)"He better be worth it. He better go home and cure a disease, or invent a longer-lasting light bulb." (X) Saving Private Ryan, The Grimace

6)(In honor of a wonderful actor that I only recently found out died) "I was born a....I was born a...I was born a girl."

If that is a bit too obscure here is another quote, "Emperor! Give me your sword!"

(If you have not seen this movie, you really ought to, and believe that what it shows you is VERY historically accurate)

7)"We've been kicking other peoples asses for so long I figured it's time we got ours kicked." (X) Platoon, FTOAS

8)"He knows you disapprove of him. He knows you think he's weak. But he's not weak. He's decent. And if you or Bruce or anyone else tries to beat that out of him, I swear to God I'll take him away." (X) Searching For Bobby Fischer, Edgehopper

9)(Sorry for the multipart dialogue in this quote, but I like it alot)

"I'm going to Hell! I killed a child! I smashed his head against a wall."
"Why?"
"Because they killed my son! The Muslims killed my son!"
"I know a way out of Hell. Find a child, a child whose mother and father were killed and raise him as your own. Only be sure that he is a muslim and that you raise him as one." (X) Gandhi, FTOAS


10)"The only thing I like integrated is my coffee." (X) Malcolm X, Javert

11)"No, you said "wet shirt don't break," not "piss shirt bend bar!" (X) Shanghai Noon, Seatarsprayan

13)"They have a cave troll..." (X) LOTR: The Fellowship of The Ring, The Grimace

15)All me life flashed before me eyes, it was really boring. (X) Chicken Run, Nighthawk

16)"In the three years, seven months and two weeks that I've been in the bag, that's the most extraordinary stuff I've ever tasted. It's shattering!"

17)"We're gonna take the cops up on those demands they wanted."
"We got a killer list goin'."

Technically 4 people could ultimately win it, gratz FTOAS for clinching a lead. 3 more movies left, if they are not identified by tomorrow morning when I come into work, Ill announce the winner based on the most points at that moment.

I am impressed that you guys were able to identify some of those quotes [Smile]

I looked up the remaining three, so I'm done. Two of them I should have known and am disappointed in myself.

I can't even find #6.
 
Posted by TheGrimace (Member # 9178) on :
 
I also have to concede on the last three along with Nighthawk
 
Posted by BlackBlade (Member # 8376) on :
 
Probably does not help that IMDB does not have any quotes from #6 but its certainly listed and has alot of other details about it.

The movie is Chinese, its English title is 3 words and its Chinese title is 4.
 
Posted by BlackBlade (Member # 8376) on :
 
The 2nd word in the English title is, "My"

Thats all the clues you are getting for #6

I started laughing as soon as I heard the theme music to Chicken Run at the beginning [Wink]

I don't know if you care for tragic movies based on historical events. Or if you can handle a 3 hour movie. But the acting in Farewell My Concubine is just amazing, and the events of the story are beautiful when happy and very difficult to watch when sorrowful.

Were I to pick my two favorite movies from Chinese cinema (and believe me there are good many) Farewell My Concubine and To Live would top my list. Too bad I can't get a hold of a copy of To Live on DVD anywhere and I cant afford to pay $40 for it, I hope the reissue it.

My Turn!
1. Don't be afraid, I'm part of the family. Alien 3, Nighthawk
2. The box. You opened it. We came. Hellraiser, Nighthawk.
3. This sausage is probably eighteen years old... This sausage could vote. It could go to war and die for its country.
4. You may not have faith in fate but, my man, fate has faith in you.
5. See yon rich, unwary traveler? I'll rob him of his gold, and give it to some poor unworthy slob! That'll PROVE I'm Robin Hood! Huh? Hm? Okay? (Hint-It’s old. Really old). Robin Hood Daffy, Raventhief.
6. This was supposed to be a celebration, not an execution! Peter Pan and the Pirates, Dr. S.
7. I remember wrenching the steering wheel to the right and slapping my foot against the brake petal. I wasn't the driver anymore. The bus was like this huge wave about to break over us.
8. I have traveled many miles and now have come disguised as a pimp to help you. Beverly Hills Ninja, Raventhief.
9. The point is, how do you know the fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Building model airplanes" says the little fairy, well, we're not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that's all it takes. The next thing you know, there's money missing off the dresser and your daughter's knocked up, I seen it a hundred times. Tommy Boy, The Grimace
10. Pardon me, girls. I know you're feeling pretty hey sailor up here about now. But if you would just let me order a bowl of fried clams we can all have smallpox tomorrow morning. (Translated from Swahili) George of the jungle, Dr. S.
11. Ow, my left nut! Strange Brew, Nighthawk.
12. It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression. Today we have a similar debate over this. Ferris Bueller's Day off, SenojRetep.
13. Hey, you're making me look stupid. Get out of here, Panda Jerk. Anchorman, Dr S.

16. Did he just say "Grand Central Station," or "My aunt's constipation"? Madagascar, Goody Scrivener.
17. The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all. Mulan, Dr. S.
18. Young man, do you know what still causes so much pain? It's not the people we lost, or the land. It's to know that we could be so hated. Who are these people, who could hate us so much? How can they still deny their hatred? And so hate us... hate us even more? Ararat, Dr. S.
19. I'm not going to fulfill your fantasies in the dentist chair!
20. I'm sweating like Whitney Houston going through customs!

Scors updated, Javert's in the lead.

Morbo: no on #11.

I expected this forum to get a lot more answers than you have so far, considering most of the movies fit in to this crowd. Guess there's only a select few that come in here.

And, Javert, you didn't like The Running Man? I mean, it's not Citizen Kane, but still...
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
I read the story before I saw the movie...much better on paper than in the hands of Arnold. Sorry.

Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
Nice work, people. Updated!

Ecthalion: Reluctantly, I'm going to give you #6, because I can't bring myself to say a flat out "no", and any comment of partial answer will make it too easy for others.

I'll give #1 an hour or so more. I wouldn't be surprised if nobody gets it; doesn't look like the type of crowd.
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
...my roommate just gave me the answer to number 1. That being said, if I post it, I'll only force a tie...what should I do? I bow to your wisdom, Nighthawk.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
Well, I don't know what to do in a tie situation. Who started this thing?

In other threads, such as music quotes threads, I've generally gone the way of the person that hasn't done it before. Right now I don't have the time to plow through 17 pages to see if either one of you did.

Ecthalion got his fifth point by giving a partially correct title; you'd be getting your fifth point through a third party and not from direct, personal knowledge. So I'm still at a loss.

So, if you want to post it and you're correct, I'll make it a coin flip. Call it in the air.
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
Sure, what the heck then...# 1 is Mr. Woo's "The Killer"
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
And if I'm right, and you want me to call the coin flip, I say heads.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
I should give you extra credit for using the term "Mr. Woo", but you're correct.

And... sadly... heads it is.
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
First of all, why sadly? [Frown] Secondly...what do I do now? Post my list?

eh i dont know any more so its up to nighthawk

There are 4 left. Dr Strangelove, Narnia, BlackBlade or Morbo can still win it.
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
I'm out of it, I looked em up. I say if the tie isn't broken by some time tomorrow, Ecthalion takes it (seeing as how Nighthawk just did one and Ecthalion is a newbie anyways [Wink] )
 
Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :
 
After 18 gave me a ride to the liquor store, I'm really out of it. If I do enough shots, perhaps that one quote might come to me, but certainly not any of the others.

No matter.
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
Leonide is right.

As far as #5 goes, I'll give a clue...the line is repeated several times over the course of maybe 5 minutes in the film.

I get out of rehearsal at 6, so when I get home I'll update and declare a winner. [Smile]
 
Posted by Javert (Member # 3076) on :
 
The winner is Ecthalion, since Nighthawk gives up the tie. The answers are all there. Good job people!

Javert, you wouldn't put your money on me if you saw my track record in this game. I think this is the highest score I've gotten since the beginning. [Smile]

Well, what should I do? I did just do it recently, but since there's a three way tie for second place, it's not really cut and dry who should do it.

I have no objection. You won--even if you don't want to post I have no list and I'm too busy this week to do it. In fact, I should be asleep right now. [Sleep]

Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
Ok, yeah, I was frustrated by this one, so someone hurry up and post another list someone so I can feel good about my entertainment knowledge again. The only one I knew in this one was "Milo and Otis".

I've been looking through some of the older pages in this thread, and I must say its rather hilarious how often some movies are repeated, sometimes even the same lines. If I have time, one day I'm gonna go through and see how many times certain movies or lines have been duplicated.

You think I'm going to go through nineteen pages at this point?

I know you all just can't wait but I think I can have a list ( [Evil Laugh] )finished and posted by tomorrow 3 am Hatrack time (EST) and if I fail that, then I'll shoot for 3 pm Hatrack time. [Dont Know]

Pressure! Pressure! [Wall Bash]
 
Posted by Samuel Bush (Member # 460) on :
 
Bad news (or good new depending on your point of view). I will not be able to post a list of movie quotes. I got only about 10 or so done and then a small swarm of time vampires caught up with me. Two of the bigger ones pretty much drained me dry and the rest of them forced me to give them I.O.U.’s to cover all of my minutes into the foreseeable future.

So I’m not going to have time for even casual lurking let alone posting anything on Hatrack until I-don’t-know-when.

But no doubt you all will have no trouble getting someone else to take my spot on this thread.

It’s been fun, though.

So ... ummm ... Narnia? You were second place from this last round. Depending on when I get internet access from my apartment, I don't know if I'll be playing this round or not [Frown] . We shall see.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
So, I took the initiative and wrote up a list. Hopefully nobody minds.

1) I shall call him squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my squishy Come on, squishy Come on, little squishy [baby talk]...Ow Bad squishy, bad squishy.
Finding Nemo


2) This trial has shown that under the stress of a national crisis, men - even able and extraordinary men - can delude themselves into the commission of crimes and atrocities so vast and heinous as to stagger the imagination. No one who has sat through this trial can ever forget. The sterilization of men because of their political beliefs... The murder of children... How *easily* that can happen! There are those in our country today, too, who speak of the "protection" of the country. Of "survival". The answer to that is: *survival as what*? A country isn't a rock. And it isn't an extension of one's self. *It's what it stands for, when standing for something is the most difficult!* Before the people of the world - let it now be noted in our decision here that this is what *we* stand for: *justice, truth... and the value of a single human being!*
Judgement at Nuremberg


3) You think a guy like that comes this close to getting fingered and sticks his head out? If he comes up for anything, it will be to get rid of me. After that, my guess is you'll never hear from him again.
The Usual Suspects


4) - I told ya. We haven't had any vehicles go missing.
- Okay! But are ya sure? 'Cause I mean, how do you know? Do you do a count, or what kind of a routine do you have here?
- [growing uncomfortable with this questioning] Maam, I answered your question!
- [long pause] I'm sorry, sir?
- Maam, I answered your question. I answered the darned... I'm cooperatin' here!
- Sir, you have no call to get snippy with me, I'm just doing my job here.
- I'm... I'm not arguing here! I'm cooperating. So there's no need to... we're doin' all we can here.
Fargo


5) Boy, you better, you tell your boys they better kill me, Bert. They better go all the way with me, 'cause if they just bust me up, I'll put all those pieces back together again, then so help me... So help me God, Bert, I'm gonna come back here and I'm gonna kill you.
The Hustler


6) And who are you? So full of hate that you have to fight everybody, because you've been whipped and chased by hounds. Well that might not be living, but it sure as hell ain't dying. And dying's been what these white boys have been doing for going on three years now, dying by the thousands, dying for you, fool.
Glory


7) - I don't even know you.
- You know me. I'm the same as you. It's two in the morning and I don't know nobody.
The Sting


8) There will be no rescue, no intervention for us. We can only save ourselves. Many of you know influential people abroad, you must call these people. You must tell them what will happen to us... say goodbye. But when you say goodbye, say it as if you are reaching through the phone and holding their hand. Let them know that if they let go of that hand, you will die.
Hotel Rwanda


9) - Virgil. Well that's a pretty funny name for a colored boy. What do they call you up in Philadelphia?
- They call me MISTER Tibbs!
- Mr. Tibbs! Well Mr. Woods take Mr. Tibbs! Take him down to the depot and I mean boy like now!
In the Heat of the Night


10) I owe you nothing. And you are nothing to me. Thank you for curing me of my ridiculous obsession with love.
Moulin Rouge!


11) I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you'll understand that.
Casablanca


12) Now listen to me, all of you. You are all condemned men. We keep you alive to serve this ship. So row well, and live.
Ben-Hur


13) Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the <title word> out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...
The Caine Mutiny


14) The rain on my car is a baptism, the new me, Ice Man, Power Lloyd, my assault on the world begins now.
Say Anything


15) Come on, all the long distance lines are down? What about satellite? Is it snowing in space? Don't you keep open a line for emergencies or for celebrities? I'm both. I'm a celebrity in an emergency.
Groundhog Day (in the diner, on the very "first" day)


16) *How* is it different? You're just like the rest of them! You think you're different, but you're not, because you're just, you're just really scared! You're really scared to give someone new a go, because you think, you know, they might just be better than you are! Well, you're just pathetic, and you're gutless. You're a gutless wonder! Vivir con miedo, es como vivir a medias!
Strictly Ballroom

17) - So tell me Curly, how do you know Miss Cross?
- We went to Harvard together.
- Oh that's great. I wrote a hit play and directed it, so I'm not sweating it either.
Rushmore

18) It'll be a cold day in hell when Harry Flugelman lets an actor tell *him* what to do!
Three Amigos

19) - I wonder how such a degenerated person ever reached a position of authority in the Army Medical Corps.
- He was drafted.
MASH


20) Winter must be cold for those with no warm memories... And we've already missed the spring!
An Affair to Remember

2) Judgement at Nuremberg would be my guess.

I've already posted two lists, and it's getting harder to do. Anyone else have one handy? I could put yet another one together, but not until tomorrow.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Correct.

How is it that no one has gotten #18? Of the ones left, I'm most surprised that #18, #14 and #16 I weren't gotten pretty early on.

Because we're old, it seems. It's comforting to know that I did better naming movies in the 1960s than I did those in the 90s...
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
My sister's seem to think 18 Tootsie, but I don't think it is. But I'll throw it out there just in case.

And I can do another list I suppose, I just might be slow on updating it. I might not be, it really depends ... so I guess I'll do it. Look for it sometime tomorrow midmorning. I could put it up in the wee hours of the morning, but I'm starting to think that gives an advantage to us night owls and slights those poor souls on normal schedules. [Razz]
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Your sisters were wrong. It ain't Tootsie.

Additional hints:

5) George C. Scott is Bert. And he's just lost a big bet.
14) It's got a boombox, a car, and a little Peter Gabriel.
16) Australian. But no Heath Ledger or Russell Crowe.
17) Bill Murray's in this one, but not the scene the quote is from.
18) "I'm talking about real money. <title word> money...No dough, no show."
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
Your hints make it easy...

5) The Hustler
George C. Scott is one of my favorite actors (for the record, Patton is in my top three favorites). I still can't place the quote, but I know him, the character and the plot.

14) Say Anything

Well, Nighthawk, if you don't want to do it, let me know, but otherwise ... post your list!
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
One of these days I'm gonna have to go through all 20 pages here. I'm sure I'm repeating some of these. Hell, I'm in doubt as to whether I'm repeating lines from my last two lists...

----------

1) "Never rub another man's rhubarb." - Batman (SenojRetep)

6) "One understands why some animals eat their young." - Bicentenial Man (Vadon)

7) "If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer."

8) "Wouldn't this be a great world if insecurity and desperation made us more attractive? If 'needy' were a turn-on?"

9) "You should be running."

10) "This is the part where you run away." - Shrek (Jeesh)

11) "I know that I have put you through hell, and I know that I have been one rough pecker. But from here on, you are all in my cool book."

12) "Have you ever gotten the feeling that you aren't completely embarassed yet, but you glimpse tomorrow's embarrassment?"

13) "Actually we're all from Mars around here, we keep our spaceship out back. So... what planet are you from?"

14) "I'm impatient with stupidity. My people have learned to live without it."

15) "Perhaps the love of a man and a woman doesn't amount to a hill of beans, but this is our hill, and these are our beans."

16) "See you Monday. We'll be talking about Freud and why he did enough cocaine to kill a small horse." - Good Will Hunting (SenojRetep)

17) "No dream is ever just a dream."

18) "You're not a postal worker, are you?" - Jumanji (Samarkand)

I'll post the results a little later. it's been a horrible morning.

I've made up a list of quotes. If you'd all like, I could post it to try to keep things running.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
Yeah, go ahead. I don't have the time. I think it's a tie anyway, but I don't have the time to deal with it.
 
Posted by Vadon (Member # 4561) on :
 
All right, a new list.

Quick things to try to help the game continue on. If I don't update who is in the lead within a day of the last guesses, the person who is currently in the lead is allowed to take control without my updating.

I've tried to make the quotes a variety of movies in both genre and their age. Also some quotes are meant to be harder than others, but we'll see how it turns out. So have at it.

1. “You know what the difference between you and a rich man is? A rich man has money, and you don’t. Now if you were smart you’d ask yourself why.” Rubin and Ed (No answer)

2. “I am the only free man on this train, and the rest of you are cattle!” Dr Zhivago (Boris)

3. “To feel. 'Cause you've never done it, you can never know it. But it's as vital as breath. And without it, without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock... ticking.” -- Equillibrium (Dr Strangelove)

4. “Imagine if you suddenly learned that the people, the places, the moments most important to you were not gone, not dead, but worse, had never been. What kind of hell would that be?” A Beautiful Mind (libertygirl)

5. “I always wanted a son, but I wanted one a little younger than myself.” -- Fiddler on the Roof (Leonide)

6. “Thanks for the couch. Um... Mike made me sleep under the sink.” Benny and Joon (Boris)

7. “Those giraffes you sold me, they won't mate. They just walk around, eating, and not mating. You sold me... queer giraffes. I want my money back.” Gladiator(Dr Strangelove)

8. “Mr. President, this is an election year. If you're looking for female companionship, we can make certain arrangements that will ensure total privacy.“
”I don't want you to get me a girl, A.J.! What is this, Vegas? “
”No sir, this is the White House.” -- The American President (Leonide)


9. “You are such a good boy. You sleep now. Dream sweet dreams. Maybe we are both dreaming. Maybe this is all a dream, and in the morning, Mommy will wake us up with milk and cookies. Then, after we eat, I will make love to her four or five times. If I can.” -- Life is Beautiful(Leonide)

10. ”No, this is Mount Everest. You should flip on the Discovery Channel from time to time. But I guess you can't now, being dead and all.”
”I'm dead?“
”Naw, I'm just messing with ya.”
”That's not funny, Man! That is not funny.” -- Bruce Almighty (Lyrhawn)


11. “No thinking - that comes later. You must write your first draft with your heart. You rewrite with your head. The first key to writing is... to write, not to think!” -- Finding Forrester (cmc)

12. “And what is it that I am meant to have wrote?... Written… <scoffs>” -- Phantom of the Opera (Leonide)

13. “What do you want me to do, dress in drag and do the hula?” -- The Lion King (libertygirl)

14. “See children? Everything in this room is eatable. Even I'm eatable! But that my dear children. is called cannibalism; and that is frowned upon in most societies” -- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (libertygirl)

15. “I heard the music of true forgiveness filling the theater, conferring on all who sat there, perfect absolution. God was singing through this little man to all the world, unstoppable, making my defeat more bitter with every passing bar.” -- Amadeus (Leonide)

16. “What difference does it make where you buy underwear? What difference does it make? Underwear is underwear! It is underwear wherever you buy it! In Cincinnati or wherever!” Rain Man (JennaDean)

17. “If I die, I will die well dressed!” -- The Patriot(Lyrhawn)

18. “I wonder if they’re the miners.”
“Yeah, they do look like little kids.”
“Miners not minors!”
“… You’ve lost me.” Galaxy Quest Dr Strangelove


19. “We got the wrong play, the wrong director, the wrong cast. Where did we go right?” -- The Producers (Leonide)

20. “Ah, how shall I do it? Oh, I know. I'll turn him into a flea, a harmless, little flea, and then I'll put that flea in a box, and then I'll put that box inside of another box, and then I'll mail that box to myself, and when it arrives I’ll smash it with a hammer!” -- The Emperor's New Groove (Jeesh)

EDIT: And to try to keep competition, shall we say you may guess three at a time/per hour?

Rankings
Leonide - 6
libertygirl - 3
Dr Strangelove - 3
Lyrhawn - 2
Boris - 2
cmc - 1
Jeesh - 1
JennaDean - 1

That sets Leonide as the victor. Go ahead and post your list of quotes.

Being as there is just one left I'll bold it with the answer.

These movies all have something in common to me -- that is, they were all movies I loved growing up. My father had taped them off of television or rented them and made a copy -- most are much older, consequently. Some are not. A lot of them have plenty in common....a few don't have anything in common with the others. So it's a mish-mesh. Some of these movies are obscure enough that even though I watched them a ton growing up, i don't rightly expect that all of them will be easily guessed. I will give clues in a bit, to try to keep the game rolling.


1) “I feel sorry for men who don't knit, they lead empty lives.” -How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

2) “First I want to hear the story of your life. Everything that's ever happened to you since you were so high. And then I want to know what you eat for breakfast, what's your favorite color, what comic strips you read. Then we'll talk about shoes, and ships, and sealing wax, and shows. Farms. Families. Oh it may take hours. Weeks. Years. I want to know everything.” -Summer Stock

3) “'Fanny' is Thannual H. Peabody, just the kind of man I've been looking for, lots of money and no resistance.” -Golddiggers of 1933

4) “Let me guess. You're a French aristocrat, she's a simple girl of the people, and she won't even give you a tumbrel. Hah!” -Singin' in the Rain

5) “Sure, but what’s more important it's termite proof. Wait 'til you see it, they tell you how to furnish it too. No rugs or carpets, they're just dust collectors...Linoleum through the whole house, wait until you see the pictures, it's sleek and smooth easy to keep clean... well it's like every room in the house was a Bathroom!” - State Fair

6) “What the devil is the matter with you? You're in love with the girl and she's in love with someone else. This sort of thing happens all the time; people don't *die* of love. You'll recover... But meanwhile can't you be civilized about it?” -Lili

7) “Good and evil, right and wrong were invented for the ordinary average man, the inferior man, because he needs them.” -Rope

8) “They started out by calling me Thomas, but when they, um, got to know me better, they changed it to Thomasina.” -The Three Lives of Thomasina

9) “A girl dancer has to be exotic; she has to be - a peach.”
“I suppose I’m a lemon!”
-Easter Parade

10) “Psychologically, I'm very confused, but personally I feel just wonderful.” -In the Good Old Summertime

11) “Right up to this minute, my only claim to fame: you were once my girl.” -Me and My Gal

12) “She's got it comin' to her and I don't mean a week in the lap of luxury!”-Annie

13) “You start worrying about your kids the day they're born, and you never stop. Even after they bury you, I bet you never stop worrying.” -There's No Business Like Show Business

14) “Oh, Miss Higgins! You're the prettiest manager in baseball.” - Take Me Out to the Ballgame

15) “Take that boy on the street. Teach him to blow a horn and he'll never blow a safe.” -Strike up the Band

16) “Oh, if you killed her, I'll kill you! I'll stab you to death in your sleep, then I'll tie your body to two wild horses until you're pulled apart.” -Meet Me in St. Louis

17) “I’m highly attracted to you. Why, when I look at you I feel wee tadpoles jumping in my spine!” -Brigadoon

18) “Back home everyone said I didn't have any talent. They might be saying the same thing over here but it sounds better in French.” - An American in Paris

19) “Marriage is not forbidden to us, but instead of getting married at once, it sometimes happens we get married at last.” - Gigi

20) “I'm going to march in the 14th street parade with the only kind of people I can trust: 700 men.” -Hello Dolly

Seatersprayan -- 1
SenojRetep -- 5
happymann -- 1


CLUES
2) My favorite romantic musical from growing up, not well known. Stars the director of Hello Dolly and someone Judy Davis did a fair impression of.
3) This is a fun ensemble movie, with just about the most vapid starring actress to grace the screen...clearly an early, say, Jessica Simpson. But not so trampy. Has a wonderful Pig Latin song in it.
6) This is the quote that was first a movie with a few songs in it (not a musical, though) that was then made into a broadway musical. There are puppets
9) There's a great dance number in this one where the lead male prances around a toy shop, playing different toys like instruments. Very fun.
10) Now that i think about it, this isn't actually a musical either, though it was ALSO made into a stage musical after it's release! This is a close, close second to number 2 as my favorite romantic movie of the time. Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, eat your hearts out! (that's a clue!)

that's all i have time for right now, give them another shot!

Okay - so I might have just gypped myself of getting one (which is okay with me), but what exactly are the rules of looking things up? I didn't plug a quote in, I plugged something related to it in to see if I was on the right track?
 
Posted by Leonide (Member # 4157) on :
 
I don't think a consensus was reached in regards to that...some people felt that you should be allowed to verify a hunch, others thought that the verification process meant you didn't *really* recognize the quote, so it shouldn't count. For a round like this, where i know the quotes are going to be harder, i'm leaning towards allowing the checking.

Hints (because the rest are somewhat obscure):

3) Written by a famous Southern US playwright, starring a famous married couple (although I don't know if they were married at the time of filming).

4) Lee Marvin plays the no-nosed murderer (as well as the gunslinger that eventually gets him).

7) The young actor who plays Jim also stars in another movie on this list.

8) Another Hayley Mills movie; I've gotta put one on each list!

12) He's threatening his wife's loser brother-in-law.

13) Jason Robards in a movie that freaked me out as a kid

14) Bette Davis in another movie that freaked me out as a kid: Narek!

15) Tony Curtis pretending to be a wealthy playboy in order to impress Marilyn Monroe

16) Mark Harmon. How many movies has that guy been in?

Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
The game seems to have cooled down a bit, but it's still a tight competition. Here's a second round of hints:

3) A large lizard features minimally in the plot, but significantly in the title.

4) Jane Fonda stars in this comedic western.

7) The young star in this quote is Christian Bale; the other actor is John Malkovich.

8) Burl Ives stars and sings in this seasonal Disney movie set in Buelah, Maine.

13) Based on a Ray Bradbury novel, titled from a quote from Macbeth.

14) If "Narek" didn't give it away, I don't know what will. What did all you kids watch on Halloween, anyway? This is classic kids freak-out faire.

Looking through the quotes I thought to myself, "I should watch this again." It's a pretty fun little movie that (unfortunately) didn't make much of a splash. Although I did see it as a pre-teen, so I might like it significantly less if I were to watch it now.

Sorry Megan. Hope there are no hard feelings, 'cause I know you would have won if I'd counted all five of your original points.

Here's the list. Rules for this round: Only three quotes per three hours, to take away some of the early advantage. [Smile] The movies cross all time spans, continents, and genres.

Change in rules: Since this is apparently a tough list, googling to confirm is fine, but not to discover in the first place. On your honor, all that. [Smile] If it gets really hard, I'll post other quotes from the same movies as hints.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines.

1. There are things you do hate, Lord. Perfume-smellin' things, lacy things, things with curly hair. Night of the Hunter

2. You have a point. An idiotic one, but a point.

Bill's thirty-two. He looks thirty-two. He looked it five years ago, he'll look it twenty years from now. I hate men.

4. Just because I wear a uniform doesn't make me a girl scout.
---
Ya know, you see a girl a couple of times a week, just for laughs, and right away they think you're gonna divorce your wife. Now I ask you, is that fair?


5. Wow, what a speech! Half Moses, half Mickey Mouse.

6. To look at a thing is quite different from seeing a thing, and one does not see anything until one sees its beauty.
----
My dear father, if we men married the women we deserved... we should have a very bad time of it.

7. I'm sorry that us models made you feel bad about yourself and throw up.
---
Wait a minute. I might just have an idea. They'll be looking for us at Maury's right? But they won't be looking for... not us. Zoolander


8. I don't like crooks. And if I did like 'em, I wouldn't like crooks that are stool pigeons. And if I did like crooks that are stool pigeons, I still wouldn't like you.

9. And when I shall die, take him and cut him up in little stars, and he will make the face of heaven so fine that all the world will fall in love with night and pay no worship to the garish sun. Romeo and Juliet

10. Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't.
---
She could use some mascara and some serious highlights, but she's not completely unfortunate looking. Legally Blonde


11. Everything you have seen here has been an illusion. The Illusionist
I just threw this quote in because I thought it was funny. And because I want people to go and see this movie - it was wonderful.

12. I don't feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom. Just my enemies. The Godfather II

13. This is the Voice of Doom calling. Your days are numbered, to the seventh son of the seventh son.
-----
Oh, that's the first sane remark I've heard today. C'malong, Dexter, I know a formula that's said to pop the pennies off the eyelids of dead Irishmen. The Philadelphia Story



14. You know the problem with being smart? You always know what will happen next. It ruins the suspense.

15. Just another piece of crap movie in which the two protagonists finally confess their feelings for each other in an ending scene outside during a thunderstorm. Why is it that people in movies like to stand around and talk in the rain?
-----
He's hearing the voice of God through a crossword puzzle! Lady in the Water



16. Look man, I'm telling you right off the bat I'm high maintenance. So I'm not gonna tip-toe around your marriage or whatever it is ya got goin' on there. If you wanna be with me, you're with me.

17. I'm going to be a great film star! That is, if booze and sex don't get me first.

18. Deliberate cruelty is unforgivable, and the one thing of which I have never,ever been guilty of. A Streetcar Named Desire
I love this quote, because the subtext is that she has been guilty of many, many other things. But, not deliberate cruelty. No matter what else she's done, in her eyes that sets her apart as a lady from the beast in front of her. It's so poignant.

19. Every civilization finds it necessary to negotiate compromises of its own values. Munich

20. Just because you own half the town doesn't mean that you have the power to run the rest of us. For twenty-three years I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you! And now... well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it! The Wizard of Oz

Katie is again home with the consumption, so she asked me to supervise.

Dr S is right on his two; as are SR's last two guesses yesterday. That leaves us with #2, #4, #5, and #17 unguessed.

Nighthawk: 1
SenojRetep: 6
Luet: 3
Raia: 1

I borrowed my roommate's computer for just a moment.

More hints:
#2: "Fasten your seat belts; it's going to be a bumpy night."

#4: Billy Wilder and Shirley McLaine

#5: I don't know how to give hints for this. Um...the title is a strong emotion, and the movie is black and white.

#17: Life is a...

SenojRetep: 6
Luet: 3
Raia: 1

Hmm...if you didn't know it yourself, I don't asking friends counts. More hints, I think.

#4: "Night like this, it sorta spooks you, walking into an empty apartment. "
"I said I had no family; I didn't say I had an empty apartment."

#5: Jeez, still can't think of a good hint. How about a plot summary: After a riot in the slums of Paris, a policeman loses his gun (Ha! This part is hilarious to Americans - that that would be a plot point.) The story follows three young men on the prowl, and the tension comes from where the gun may be and how it will be used once it is found. It explores racial tensions, power disparities, and the struggle to leave that behind in search of a safe life, and what loyalty means. Really great movie. Awful language, though, and since it's subtitled it seems even worse.

#17: Best Picture in 1972, beating The Godfather

"You hear what I said, Miss Kubelik? I absolutely adore you."
"Shut up and deal."

#5: Oh, no one is going to get this. It's La Haine (Hate).

Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Sorry for the delay.

Rules for the round: 3 pts/1 hour (waiting three hours almost killed me the other day), asking friends is fine, you can use the internet to verify, but remember, this is for posterity, so please, be honest.

1) -What's wrong with your face?
-I have AIDS.
Philadelphia


2) -Went away? "I dwell in darkness without you," and it "went away"?
- Yeah.
Willow


3) -Now, ask what the Great Conjunction is, what's the Great Conjunction?
-What's the Great Conjunction? You tell me!
- THE GREAT CONJUNCTION IS THE END OF THE WORLD! Or the beginning. Hm!
The Dark Crystal


4) "Doctor, question that's always bothered me and a lot of people: Mayflower, combined with Philadelphia - a no-brainer, right? Cause this is where the Mayflower landed. Not so. It turns out Columbus actually set foot somewhere down in the West Indies. Little known fact."
Best in Show


5) "Oh, wouldn't it be great if I *was* crazy? Then the world would be okay."
12 Monkeys


6) "Impudent piece of crockery."
Sword in the Stone


7) "Ahoy, and other nautical expressions!"
Alice in Wonderland


8) "When she was born, that's when things went wrong for us."
Whale Rider


9) -Oh, no... it's just I thought you had hidden depths.
- No, no, you've always had that wrong about me. I really am this shallow.
About a Boy


10) "You broke your little ships."
Star Trek: First Contact


11) "Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression on his face sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb."
Unbreakable


12) "Sometimes it's a good day to die, and sometimes it's a good day to have breakfast."
Smoke Signals

13) -So tell me again why I can't call him on his cell again?
-Besides that he turned it off?
-Yeah.
-Forty messages starts to look needy.
Spanglish


14) Somebody help me, I'm being spontaneous!
The Truman Show


15) -She's in love with Chopin.
- The Polish corpse?
Impromtu

16) -What's the last thing that you do remember?
- My wife...
- That's sweet.
- ...dying.
Memento


17) "You're gonna need a bigger boat."
Jaws


18) "Buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy, 'cause Kansas is going bye-bye."
The Matrix


19) -I used to admire your poetry.
- Thank you.
- I shouldn't admire it now. I should find it absurdly personal. Don't you agree? Feelings, insights, affections... it's suddenly trivial now.
Dr. Zhivago


20) "Something has to be done, but nothing too original, because hey, this is Hollywood."
LA Confidential


21) "Look, I made a hat where there never was a hat."
Sunday in the Park with George


22) [displayed on a street banner] "There is still time, brother"
On the Beach

12) This road-trip movie starts in Coer d’Alene, Idaho

15) She (in this quote) = George Sands

20) Two Australians star as two American cops (and one’s in another movie on my list)

Close game. This might go to a tie-breaker

Final hints:

12) The two main characters in this movie are named Victor Joseph and Thomas Builds-a-fire.
15) Chopin is played by Hugh Grant, and Emma Thompson has a small role in this movie about 19th century artists.
22) Nuclear winter is coming and Australia's the last place people can live (although not for long because the nuclear cloud is coming; it's a pretty bleak movie)

Okay, since no one else did one, I went ahead and did it. Spent half the morning on it too. I think it'll probably be pretty easy, so to give everybody a fair chance, we'll go with 3 guesses every 3 hours. I'm going to be out of town, but my sister (libertygirl) said she would proctor it, so any other questions can be referred to her. Have at it!

7. “You humans, most of you, subscribe to this policy of an eye for an eye, a life for a life, which is known throughout the universe for its... stupidity.” K-PAX, The Grimace

11. “I've never lived closer to danger, but I've never felt safer. I've never felt more confident, and people could spot it from a mile away. And as for this, the violence? I gotta be honest - it grew on me. Once you've taken a few punches and realize you're not made of glass, you don't feel alive unless you're pushing yourself as far as you can go.”

12. “Are you a God-fearing man, Senator? That is such a strange phrase. I've always thought of God as a teacher; a bringer of light, wisdom, and understanding. You see, I think what you really fear is me.” X-Men, TheGrimace

13. “His farger? What's a farger?” , Austin Powers in Goldmember, TheGrimace

15. “She had the personality of a ZIP code in Kansas.”

16. “That's right. What am I thinking? I'm used to sailing down under with the kiwis so everything's backwards and the toilets when you flush them, the water spins the opposite way. Really freaks you out the first time you see it.” Wedding Crashers, jehovoid

17. “I’ve never sought glory as a lover”
“What then, Senor Casanova, do you seek?”
“A moment that lasts a lifetime”.
Casanova, TheGrimace

18. “What I am saying to you, is that you are the kind of club-toting, raw-meat-eating, Me-Tarzan-You-Jane-ing big bald bubblehead that can only count to ten if he's barefoot or wearing sandals.” Cool Runnings, happyman

19. “Oh, hey, hey, hey, I got another question. Hey, uh, if one part of the mob gets separated from another part of the mob, shouldn't there be a place that we can get together? Maybe a secret place the two mobs could reunite, and we'd be a big mob again.”

20. “You can't come back with a comeback after eight seconds. You got three seconds. Five, tops. It's called a quip, not a sloooowwwwp.” Shallow Hal, Strider

Ok well I talked to Strangelove on the phone and he said that it was Pitch Black and he had just written the answer wrong. I've never seen either movie but the answer he mistakenly wrote was Chronicles of Riddick so you get it either way Nighthawk.
Happymann, Grimace, and Strider you are all right.

I haven't seen it. But, if I did, I certainly wouldn't admit it.

That remains the only movie i seriously contemplated walking out of. Too bad i'm too lazy to make smart decisions like that.
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
I'm back now. I'll give hints if you want. (I'll wait for someone to say yes or no before I do. I'm pretty bad at giving hints, so likely when I give them, if you've seen the movie you'll get it.)

Posted by jehovoid (Member # 2014) on :
 
I'm gonna take some really wild stabs now:

17. Troy

19. Gangs of New York
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
Ok, I'll give the name of the actors who said the lines. This should give it away if you've seen them, so first come first serve I suppose.

11: Elijah Wood

15: Steve Martin

17: Heath Ledger

19: Some random dude. Rob Schneider was the main character though.

Also, all of the movies are from the last 10 years. I'll give it another day, and if no one gets the last 4 by tomorrow night, TheGrimace wins it.

Is 17 the one where he's wanting to be knight but it's not in his lineage and Chaucer comes out nude at one point?

A Knights Tale?

I may be way off, but that's cool with me 'cause I'm bad at these.

12) “No, I'm serious. This is a serious exercise. It's like an SAT question. Which one is going to get to the hundred dollar bill first?” Chasing Amy

It's the one where he's sort of in the woods but I don't know the name of it. He wears a bearskin, I think. Maybe?

edit - is it basic instinct or is that a completely different movie?

Well, the answer was in that post at least... The movie was Instinct (Anthony Hopkins)

So if you can't top it, steal from them and go out strong. So I picked a guy I thought you'd like. 'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.'

1. Don't fight it son. Confess quickly! If you hold out too long you could jeopardize your credit rating. Brazil - Nighthawk. Freaking trippy movie.

2. It's like my ex-wife. 21 different personalities and 7 of them hated me. Any Given Sunday - Vonk

3. Well the buzz from the bees is that the leopards are in a bit of a spot. And the baboons are going ape over this. Of course, the giraffes are acting like they're above it all... The tick birds are pecking on the elephants. I told the elephants to forget it, but they can't. The cheetahs are hard up, but I always say, cheetahs never prosper... The Lion King - Luet

4. I think my eyes are getting better. Now instead of a big dark blur, I see a big bright blur. Return of the Jedi - Nighthawk

8. Tattoo on the lower back? Might as well be a bullseye. Wedding Crashers - Princess Leah

9. Quite frankly, we don't know much about it except that it's starts with some conflict or guilt that eventually leads to the patient's delusion that his body's been invaded by an alien intellegence; a spirit if you will. The Exorcist - Nighthawk

10. No, you drive that old busted joint. I drive... the new hotness. Men in Black II - Princess Leah

”I don’t know, but I’m agin’ ‘em.”
Snow White and the Seven Dwarves - Altáriël of Dorthonion (mwhaha! I got the special characters and everything)

12. I have a theory that there are two kinds of boys. There are those that want to be astronomers, and those that want to be astronauts.

13. Because you're the $3,000,000 man.

14. YOU WERE A TOMATO. A tomato doesn't have logic. A tomato can't move.

15. Don't cry at the beginning of a date. Cry at the end, like I do. Jerry Maguire - Nighthawk

16. Is it just me, or does every woman in Queens have some kind of an emotional problem? Coming to America - Altáriël of Dorthonion

17. The details of your incompetence do not interest me. The Devil Wears Prada - Princess Leah

18. Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P Good Morning, Vietnam - Nighthawk

19. You have an immaculate record. Some guys don't trust an immaculate record. I do. I have an immaculate record The Departed - GiantReturns

20. From the moment I slapped eyes on this hombre, I smelled trouble. And re-fried beans. Maverick - vonk

4. Return of the Jedi! C'mon people!
9. The Exorcist

Quick question, if you make three initial guesses and one is wrong or a duplicate, do you get to make another guess, or do you still have to wait?

Edit: Also, I guess I should go ahead and check what other people have answered so I'll stop making dupe answers

Sounds like what the rules say at the top of your list, which I should have read before typing. [Embarrassed] In which case I will answer again with Jerry McGuire(sp?) for numero 15.

Already been guessed. Nighthawk seems to have you number [Wink] .

The last 5 aren't that hard really. I'll post hints later tonight or tomorrow morning if they haven't been guessed.

So where's the hints? I haven't made a list in a long time.

Here are some really easy hints:

7 - At Universal Studios Orlando, the ride based off of this movie is right near the ride based off of quote #5.

12 - The rest of the line is "The astronomer, or the paleontologist, gets to study these amazing things from a place of complete safety." Also, its in a series, and you have to get the number right as well for it to count.

13 - Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman.

14 - Dustin Hoffman cross dressing.
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
12 - Jurassic Park III
13 - Rain Man
14 - Tootsie

Man, wouldn't have needed the original quotes, these hints are good enough.

I looked up #7 earlier, so I can't answer it now. So it seems Vonk won. So be it! Next!

I knew my hints were too easy [Smile] . I'm always horrible at hinting. Oh well.

*ehm* Hints?
Oh! I'm sorry, the weekend got carried away and I plum forgot. Here we go...

Number 4 has the same director as number 5 and the same lead character as number 7.

Number 5 has the same director as number 4 and features Sonny Bono and Ricki Lake!

Number 6 stars a trigger happy Eddie F. with Christina R.

Number 10 has one of the lead actors in number 3 featured in drag.

Number 14 is part of a series, but not really. It falls somewhere between the first and second of the trilogy, and is animated.

Number 15 is also animated and based on an animation that was something of a sketch show for animation. And it has maniacs.

Number 17 is a british hit pertaining to a popular counter culture that is also very popular in america. If you aren't a part of this counterculture, or have friends that are, you probably haven't seen the movie.

Number 19 is directed by the same guy that directed number 20, with two of the same lead actors.

If these hints aren't good enough, there shall be more. If they are more than adequate, well then, you're welcome.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
10: Mrs. Doubtfire

4) Hairspray
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
Princess Leah - very close, but, sorry, no. Right director, wrong lead actor. Your guess does have one actor in common with the correct answer, though.

Flaming Toad on a Stick - you got the number for the first one wrong, and I would count it, but that would automatically give the correct answer to...

SenojRetep - you got the number/movie wrong. I would go ahead and count it, but it is so similar to another movie on the list that I'm not sure if you got the movie wrong or the number.

That should clear things up...

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and give Cry Baby to FToaS, cause it's pretty obvious to me he knows which movie it is. That leaves only one unanswered clue. If Princess Leah, SenojRetep, Nighthawk or FToaS get it, we're gonna have a tie breaker. If TheGrimace gets it, he wins. If someone else gets it, TheGrimace wins. So lets see some guesses. Here's another hint, which will probably just give the movie away completely...

Hint: Edward Furlong and Christina Ricci in a film involving photography and tea bagging.

8. This film stars an actor who's nickname is a native american aquatic conveyance
12. This line immediately preceeds the purchase of a work of art in the film.
14. This line is uttered in a conversation about scrabbled voiced over radio frequencies.
15. This film also starred the actor mentioned in the hint for 8, as well as featuring an actor who long ago played a somewhat dim-witted bartender on network television. (note that "long" is a relative term)
17. This film also features a story thread about a cop who claims extreme flatulence.
19. This film co-stars an actress who played a small role in #20, in a very different role. (note: she didn't actually voice the listed quote, her co-star did)

last hints, though Enigmatic wins no matter what:
8) The movie fairly prominantly features a dolphin, and is closely related to at least one pen and paper RPG (technically it's also a video game also)
15) A recent film based on a book of the same title by a well-known if very eccentric sci-fi author.

And Nighthawk, just to make sure we're on the same page I was referring to the Shadowrun game.
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
In retrospect, I figure that. But there is a video game based on the movie, and it's rather bad.
 
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
 
I think I'll abdicate this one, since I hadn't read the guesses/hour restriction and I'm not sure I'll have much time to check on the game in the next few days anyway. Whoever came in second can come up with a list.

7) I might be the only person on the face of the earth that knows you're the greatest woman on earth. I might be the only one who appreciates how amazing you are in every single thing that you do, and how you are with Spencer, "Spence," and in every single thought that you have, and how you say what you mean, and how you almost always mean something that's all about being straight and good.
As Good as It Gets


8) I'm the ghost with the most, babe.

12) Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ferris Beuller's Day Off


13) If you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

14) You think of yourself as a colored man. I think of myself as a man.

15) Men like my father cannot die. They are with me still -- real in memory as they were in flesh, loving and beloved forever.

16) - Hey, you got a name?
- Ali... with an I. Hey, what's your name?
- Daniel... with an L.

17) Oh, Frank, my lips are hot. Kiss my hot lips.
M*A*S*H


18) Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy.

19) You think I'm licked. You all think I'm licked. Well, I'm not licked. And I'm going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. Even if this room gets filled with lies like these, and the Taylors and all their armies come marching into this place.
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington


20) Over? Did you say “over?” Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell, no!

Raia moves into a tie for the lead.

If mining and singing didn't give away #15, I don't know what will. It won 5 Academy Awards in 1941, and is about a small village in turn of the century Wales.

If no one gets it, I'll put out a tiebreaker. Or either Raia or MrSquicky could just put out their own list. I won't be online much today, so if one or the other wants to take the iniative and make a list, that'd be fine with me.
 
Posted by MrSquicky (Member # 1802) on :
 
15) The singing miner? Or Snow White?

I'm not going to be a good list monitor, so I'd willingly abdicate to Raia.

15) The Good Earth?

I know its Roddy McDowell's first movie, as a kid. Set in a Welsh mining town. I can picture it, but can't name it.
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
Erm! I shouldn't be making a list, I have finals!! Drat... Squick, do you want it? Or shall we continue to see if we can figure this one out? [Smile]

I could do it, just not for another two days or so.
 
Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
I'll give credit to Dan for How Green was My Valley. The book is even better than the movie, BTW. The author (Richard LLewellyn) caused an uproar when he revealed that he'd never actually been to Wales, calling into question the authenticity of everything in the book. I was certainly able to get past that, though, and just enjoy a really nice story of family and community.

Judging from Squick and Raia's responses, neither really wants to do a list. Does Javert or Dan want to do one, as the two tied for second place?

Alright, well, nobody said anything, and now I'm home, so here we go... you know the drill, three guesses every three hours:

1) Cause the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes. The house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet and you bet big, then you take the house.

4) When it comes to emotions, even great heroes can be idiots.

5) What the cops never figured out, and what I know now, was that these men would never break, never lie down, never bend over for anybody. Anybody.

"Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" -TheGrimace

7) Oh, I love it when I'm nasty.
"The Great Mouse Detective" -BlackBlade


8) You'd be surprised how many kings are only a queen with a mustache.
"Hans Christian Andersen" -Luet13


9) Lawyers should never marry other lawyers. This is called in-breeding; from this comes idiot children... and more lawyers.
"Adam's Rib" -SenojRetep

10) It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going okay, another falls spectacularly to pieces.
"Bridget Jones' Diary" -SenojRetep


11) For what we are about to see next, we must enter quietly into the realm of genius.

12) Umm... I'm not sure what clues to give this one without giving it away. I could pull my music major card and say Maurice Jarre did the music for it...
13) Also featuring Eli Wallach and Hugh Griffith, as well as Hepburn and the actor from 12...
16) I cannot BELIEVE that nobody has gotten this one yet. You don't get any more clues than the one I gave you last time. I am ashamed of all of you.

Do you have time to do a list?

I've resurrected this thread three times, and I don't mind cause I like making the lists. But I wonder if we decreased the number of movies, if it might not lead to the thread dying less frequently.

Anyway, just a thought.
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
That is a good thought. Most movies have been done more than once, and in a lot of cases with the exact same quotes. A while back I went through trying to see what movie had been done the most, but I wasn't able to find an easy way to organize my research. Some day when I'm bored I'll spend the time, but there have been a lot of repeats, I can tell you that.
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
A thought worth testing. Here's ten. I guess 3/3hrs still? I'm sure some of these are repeats too, but I don't have time to go through 32 pages.

1)Well, it's a lot more compact than the flaming sword, but it's not nearly as impressive. Just doesn't have that Wrath-of-the-Almighty edge to it. I mean, come on, how am I supposed to strike fear into the hearts of the wicked with this thing? Look at this... -- Dogma -- El JT de Spang

2)I fail to recognize the correlation between "losing 10K", "hospitalizing gorgeous" and "a good deal". -- Snatch -- orlox

3)She had these little stubby wings, like she could've glued them on, you know, like I'm gonna believe she's a fairy.

4)Dear God, I do not ask for health or wealth. People ask you so often that you can't have any left. Give me, God, what else you have. Give me what no-one else asks for. Amen.

5)I trust everyone. It's the devil inside them I don't trust. -- Italian Job -- Chord

6)This makes golf look like porn. -- Man of the Year -- Vadon

7)You know what my problem is? I am not interesting. What am I supposed to say I went to magic camp? That I'm an accomplished ventriloquist? Oh, I am the 7th degree imperial yo-yo master. -- 40 Year-Old Virgin -- orlox

8)I wish it were winter so we could freeze it into ice blocks and skate on it and melt it in the spring time and drink it!

9)- Have you ever transcended space and time?
- Yes. No. Uh, time, not space... No, I don't know what you're talking about. -- I Heart Huckabee's -- Carrie


10)Ya, we're gonna do that gas thing. The only thing that scares people more than getting burned to death is people getting eaten alive. Come on, let's go.

I won the game by mistake.

I had no business sticking my nose in your game. I just couldn’t help Man on Fire, the quote was bugging me as I just saw the movie on the tee vee a week ago.

Anyways, I got some quotes together but you have probably had most of them already… Again, I apologize.

But, if you will be gentle with me, I promise to answer no more than one in the future until I know what I am doing. [No No]

1) We've gone on holiday by mistake.

2) Take car. Go to Mums. Kill Phil. (Sorry.) Grab Liz. Go to the Winchester. Have a nice cold pint and wait for all this to blow over. Shaun of the Dead - Carrie

3) I'll be taking these Huggies and whatever cash you got. Raising Arizona - Nighthawk

4) The set-up is simple, Dutch. One day job. We pick up their trail at the chopper, run 'em down, grab the hostages and bounce back across the border before anyone knows we were there. You've done it a hundred times. Nothing out the ordinary. Predator - Nighthawk

5) So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers, all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person, but that's going to change, I'm going to change. This is the last of this sort of thing. I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm going to be just like you: the job, the family, the f***ing big television, the washing machine, the car, the compact disc and electrical tin opener, good health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, mortgage, starter home, leisurewear, luggage, three-piece suite, DIY, game shows, junk food, children, walks in the park, nine to five, good at golf, washing the car, choice of sweaters, family Christmas, indexed pension, tax exemption, clearing the gutters, getting by, looking ahead, to the day you die. Trainspotting - Luet13

6) I don't truly know what's gonna happen when the lights go out, Carolyn -- but I do know that once the dyin' starts, this little psycho family of ours is gonna rip itself apart. So you better find out the truth. Come nightfall, you better know exactly who's standing behind you.

7) What can I tell you, I'm the villain.

8) The tragedy of this war is a dead surfer. Apocalypse Now - Nighthawk

9) If you can’t say something nice don’t say nothing at all. Bambi - J_84

10) Three card brag is a simple form of poker; you are dealt only three cards and these you can't change. If you don't look at your cards you're a `blind man' and you only put in half the stake. Three of any kind is the highest you can get: the odds are four hundred and twenty-five to one. Then it's a running flush - you know, all the same suit running in order; then a straight, then a flush, then a pair, and finally whatever the highest card you are holding. There are some tell-tale signs that are valuable; I am not going to tell you them because it took me long enough to learn them, but these can only help a player, not make one. So you want to play?

Just so you know, orlox, this looks like a fine list. I unfortunately don't know any (and we haven't had any of them before AFAIK), but it looks like a good list. I just didn't want you getting frustrated because no one's been able to get most of them.

Well, I thought 6) would be one of the easy ones. Vin's breakout role, Claudia Black, doesn't mind the dark...

1) Is my very favourite movie. British spelling intended. I have seen it well over 100 times and still seem to find something new to laugh at everytime. Written by Bruce Robinson and starring Richard E. Grant, it is the story of two clapped out drug addled actors in the waning moments of the sixties trying to straighten out. The quote I nearly went with:
You know what we should do? I say, you know what we should do?
How should I possibly know what we should do?
Get out of it for a while. Get into the countryside. Rejuvenate.
Rejuvenate! I'm in a park and I'm practically dead. What good's the countryside?

Ha! Figures I could not recall where this was from. I knew I'd heard this line but I've only watched that movie with subtitles and I am pretty sure "fairy" is not the literal translation.

That means we have a four way tie. Is there some sort of tie breaker, or does one of you just want to go ahead and do a list?
 
Posted by BlackBlade (Member # 8376) on :
 
A tie breaker works just fine for me.

But I'd be happy to do a new list, as it would make this last stretch of drudgery before the glorious weekened that much easier to bear.

But again whatever the current list's author decides.
 
Posted by Damien.m (Member # 8462) on :
 
You might as well go ahead and make a list. The tie breaker wont work because we wont know when all three are online at the same time.
 
Posted by BlackBlade (Member # 8376) on :
 
Well if Strider, Mr. Squicky, Vonk, and Jon all concure Ill start, as I'd rather not start and have somebody not be OK with the arrangement.

But hey Stever can decide however he wants, its his thread right now.

Do it, brother. I don't really have time to make a list.

8. Young Frankenstein. I can see this is going to be a good one for me as you seem to like cult movies... so do I.
20. Spiderman 3, which was NOT NEARLY as good at the other two, IMO. Maybe I am biased cause I watched it on a computer so the graphics aren't as good.
Edit: Alright, I am just going to exclude myself from this game from now on because I have an unfair advantage: I have an amazing phonographic memory (near perfect) and I am a cinemaphile. Sorry.

i'm stealing that one because he went over his quota. and i'm being fair since that's the only one I actually knew and i'm not stealing any of his others.

Strider: 2
Jon: 3

As a concession, several of Jon's guesses were already correctly identified by Damien, and if we subtract the one Strider got because Jon went over quota it evens out to 3. So it's still anyones game.

Oh and Jon, 4 and 17 are both wrong

Raia: 1
SteveRogers: 1
Luet13: 1

Ill edit the post to reflect who got what, but 3 are still unsolved! Jon, Narnia, Strider could still steal this round! Jon you do not get credit for Great Mouse Detective because once again an hour had not passed between guesses.

Hints:
6) Foreign Cinema, very recent release.

16) Whistlers Mother + Paint Remover

19) Spielberg movie.

That knocks Strider out and puts the game in Jon, Narnia's and Damien's hands.

Just for fun, and because tomorrow is my birthday, here's a new list. Regular rules (3 guesses/3 hours, no googling). As a note, after rereading it just now, I think it's a little heavy on the classics, although there are a few more recent releases. Have fun.

1) He was from a long great military tradition. Somebody from his family had fought and died in every single American war. I guess you could say he had a lot to live up to.
Forrest Gump


2) This is supposed to be a happy occasion. Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail


3) -I'll stop that car, and I won't use my thumb!
[car stops]
-Why didn't you take off all your clothes? You could have stopped forty cars.
-Well, ooo, I'll remember that when we need forty cars.
It Happened One Night


4) Hey, you! Get your damn hands off her!
Back to the Future


5) -You mean... You mean you don't like me?
-No, of course I like you. It's because I like you I don't want to be with you. It's a complicated emotion.
Finding Nemo


6) Ha, your pig fiance is too late!
The Princess Bride


7) I'm 26, and I'm single, and a school teacher, and that's the bottom of the pit. And the only excitement I've known is here with me now. I'll go with you, and I won't whine, and I'll sew you socks, and I'll stitch you when you're wounded, and I'll do anything you ask of me except one thing. I won't watch you die. I'll miss that scene if you don't mind.
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid


8) Mathematicians won the war. Mathematicians broke the Japanese codes... and built the A-bomb. Mathematicians... like you. The stated goal of the Soviets is global Communism. In medicine or economics, in technology or space, battle lines are being drawn. To triumph, we need results. Publishable, applicable results. Now who among you will be the next Morse? The next Einstein? Who among you will be the vanguard of democracy, freedom, and discovery? Today, we bequeath America's future into your able hands. Welcome to Princeton, gentlemen.
A Beautiful Mind


9) I know you will never entirely comprehend this, Raymond, but you must believe I did not know it would be you. I served them. I fought for them. I'm on the point of winning for them the greatest foothold they would ever have in this country. And they paid me back by taking your soul away from you. I told them to build me an assassin. I wanted a killer from a world filled with killers and they chose you because they thought it would bind me closer to them. But now, we have come almost to the end. One last step. And then when I take power, they will be pulled down and ground into dirt for what they did to you. And what they did in so contemptuously underestimating me.
The Manchurian Candidate


10) -That ditch is Boss Kean's ditch. And I told him that dirt in it's your dirt. What's your dirt doin' in his ditch?
-I don't know, Boss.
-You better get in there and get it out, boy
Cool Hand Luke


11) -He killed a dog last night because the dog was scratching around in the garden. You know why? Because he had something buried in that garden that the dog scented.
-Like an old hambone?
-I don't know what pet names Thorwald had for his wife.
Rear Window


12) Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled [title word] out of action.
The Caine Mutiny


13) If there was a law, they was workin' with maybe we could take it, but it ain't the law. They're workin' away our spirits, tryin' to make us cringe and crawl, takin' away our decency.
The Grapes of Wrath


14) No, no. I'm not a Brewster. I'm the son of a sea-cook! Ha! Ha! Chaaaaarrrge! [runs off across the cemetary]
Arsenic and Old Lace


15) -You're not the man I knew ten years ago.
-It's not the years, honey, it's the mileage.
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark


16) So full of hate you want to go out and fight everybody! Because you've been whipped and chased by hounds. Well that might not be living, but it sure as hell ain't dying. And dying's been what these white boys have been doing for going on three years now! Dying by the thousands! Dying for *you*, fool! I know, 'cause I dug the graves. And all this time I keep askin' myself, when, O Lord, when it's gonna be our time? Gonna come a time when we all gonna hafta ante up. Ante up and kick in like men. LIKE MEN!
Glory


17) A- You can never go too far. B- If I'm gonna get busted, it is not gonna be by a guy like that.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off


18) -The Night Owl case made you. Do you want to tear all that down?
-With a wrecking ball. You want to help me swing it?
L.A. Confidential


19) To mail six packages to Japan overnight is how much? That's in yen? DOLLARS? Oh, you people are deliberately taking advantage of people in a hurry, you know that?
Toy Story 2


20) -Symmetrical book stacking. Just like the Philadelphia mass turbulence of 1947.
-You're right, no human being would stack books like this.
Ghostbusters

Clues on remaining movies:
3) Bugs Bunny's fast talking personality was partially based on the male lead in this film, particularly a scene when he leans against a fence and eats a carrot.
9) This film made in 1962 was first released theatrically in 1987 (the studio initially didn't release it due to subject matter sensitivity, and then the actor who owned the rights to the film refused to give permission to have it released until he was paid an outstanding portion of the original profits).
13) Based on a novel by John Steinbeck
19) This line is spoken by Al of Al's Toy Barn fame (he does his own commericials, in a chicken suit even).

Good guess, Morbo.

Well, that seals the deal for you (sorry Nighthawk).

The final quote was from The Manchurian Candidate (the original, not the remade abomination). If you haven't seen it, check it out. Great stuff.

Hoo wah! What a lucky guess. I haven't seen the whole film, but it seemed to fit the quote and hint: pre-dates Bugs, a man and woman on the road hitching, Clark Gable is a fast talker etc.

I thought Manchurian Candidate because of the talk of assassins, but the hint threw me off as I had no idea it's release was delayed so long.

I'm working on a list, it might be ready tonight if I try hard.

What's the best time to post a list? Tomorrow I'll be gone all day until 4-6 PM. If I finish it tonight, I could post it tonight or at 5am before I leave for work.

A belated happy birthday, SenojRetep! [Smile]
And thanks for reviving this thread, it's fun although very frustrating. So often I almost know where the quote is from, but can't quite get it.

Regular rules (3 guesses/3 hours, no googling)


1) Fiery the angels fell; deep thunder rolled around their shores; burning with the fires of Orc.
Blade Runner--Nighthawk

2) Now, get this, you double-crossing chimpanzee: There ain't going to be any interview and there ain't going to be any story. And that certified check of yours is leaving with me in twenty minutes. I wouldn't cover the burning of Rome for you if they were just lighting it up. If I ever lay my two eyes on you again, I'm gonna walk right up to you and hammer on that monkeyed skull of yours 'til it rings like a Chinese gong!
His Girl Friday--SenojRetep

3) Bloody paperwork. Huh!
--I suppose one has to expect a certain amount.
Why? I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's trouble, a man alone. Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can't make a move without a form.
Brazil--Nighthawk

4) I haven't seen you in twenty years. You look good. The picture the police have of you doesn't do you justice.
-- What do the police know about justice?
Children of Men. ---Strider

5) Are you sure we should be driving like this, I mean in broad daylight and everything?
-- No we shouldn't, but I want to put some distance between us and the scene of our last goddamn crime.
Thelma and Louise--Nighthawk

6) So tell me Curly, how do you know Miss Cross?
-- We went to Harvard together.
--Oh that's great. I wrote a hit play and directed it, so I'm not sweating it either.
Rushmore--Mel

7) No, let me go! I've got tides to regulate! Comets to direct! I don't have time for flatulence and orgasms!
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen--Leonide

8) A memorial service was held at the Mar Vista Inn today for Jasper Lamar Crabb. He passed away two weeks ago.
-- Why is that unusual?
--He passed away two weeks ago and one week ago he bought the land. That's unusual.
Chinatown--Carrie

9) My husband was a movie freak. Actually, he was particularly obsessed with one movie, "The Wizard of Oz." He talked about it constantly. I thought it was cute at first. On our wedding night, I was a virgin. When we made love - you've seen the movie, haven't you?
-- "The Wizard of Oz"? Yeah.
--Well, whenever he - you know, when he came...
-- Yeah.
--...he would scream out, "Surrender Dorothy!" That's all! Just "Surrender Dorothy!"
-- Wow.
--Instead of saying something normal like, "Oh, God," or something normal like that. I mean, it was pretty creepy! And I told him I thought so, but he just, he just couldn't stop, he just, he just couldn't stop, he just... couldn't stop.
After Hours--Javert

10) Well hell, ain't it square one! Ain't nobody gonna pick up three filthy, unshaved hitch-hikers, and one of them a know-it-all that can't keep his trap shut.
---____, the personal rancor reflected in that remark I don't intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your general attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lilies of the goddamn field or... hell! Take at look at "Blank" here as your paradigm of hope.
--"Blank" Yeah, look at me.
O Brother, Where Art Thou--Leonide

Nighthawk 3

Thanks, one my favorites too, and I especially like Rutger Hauer in general. And you just had to pick Brazil, too, which I've mentioned several times to be in my top 10. [Smile]

Nighthawk, Leonide, and Carrie win! [Big Grin]

Nighthawk, it's a two-parter.
Here's 11-20. Finally. And 8, with an additional quote.


8) A memorial service was held at the Mar Vista Inn today for Jasper Lamar Crabb. He passed away two weeks ago.
-- Why is that unusual?
--He passed away two weeks ago and one week ago he bought the land. That's unusual.
2nd quote:Course I’m respectable. I’m old. Politicians, public buildings, and whores all get respectable if they last long enough.
Chinatown--Carrie

11) I tell him about destiny; he's shaking his head. About dreamgirls; he doesn't care. I mention the underwear thing? He has a *freaking conniption*. And you? How 'bout it, filmgoer? Have you solved the case of the - the dead people in L.A.? Times Square audiences, please don't shout at the screen, and stop picking at that, it'll just get worse.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang--Leonide

12)[On speaker phone, an investor has just told the title character that he has to flee the country]
Wait a second. They ripped off my film, my boat's broken, you're ditching me down the river... what am I supposed to do?
--Well, I must say, nothing's leaping to mind. Phillip, any ideas?
[pause]
No, he's shaking his head.
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou--The Crow's Wife

13) Honey, don't give me that "all for one" shit. I got to deal with being a minority in a minority of a minority, and nobody supports my ass.
Chasing Amy--TheGrimace

14) Take whatever advice that she gives you with a big grain of salt.
-- Yeah and take anything that he gives you with a shot of penicillin.
Waiting. . .--vonk

15) I didn't ask for a shrink - that must've been somebody else. Also, that pudding isn't mine. Also, I'm wearing this suit today because I had a very important meeting this morning and I don't have a crying problem.
Punch-Drunk Love--Carrie

16) Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt. That's the first thing they teach you.
-- Who taught you?
-- I don't remember. That's the second thing they teach you.
Ronin--TheGrimace

17)Honey, how are you doing?
--- Oh great, considering I desecrated your Grandma's remains, found out you were engaged, and had your Father ask me to milk him.
17) Meet the Parents--vonk

18) Why if I had half a chance, I could make an entire movie using this stock footage. The story opens on these mysterious explosions. Nobody knows what's causing them, but it's upsetting all the buffalo. So, the military are called in to solve the mystery.
-- You forgot the octopus.
-- No, no, I'm saving that for my big underwater climax.
Ed Wood--Eduardo St. Elmo

19) Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly.
The Third Man--SenojRetep

20) I looked at the clock... because I was saying to myself... It's five to seven, where could he be going with that sawed off shotgun?
A Fish Called Wanda--Eduardo St. Elmo

Overall score: Nighthawk, Leonide, and Carrie win.
Nighthawk 3
Leonide 3
Carrie 3
The Crow's Wife 2
TheGrimace 2
Eduardo St. Elmo 2
vonk 2
SenojRetep 1
Javert 1
Strider 1


The score at halftime:
Nighthawk 3
Leonide 2
The Crow's Wife 1
Javert 1
Strider 1
SenojRetep 1

Hints

8) Made in the 70s.Set in LA. The director fled warrants in the US and remains exiled to this day. All three lines are by academy award winners.

11) This film came out 2 years ago. It features a gay detective.

14) The line is spoken by Anna Faris of Scary Movie fame. The film has some gross scenes of food being mishandled.

15) The line is spoken by a former Saturday Night Live star who went on to great success in films. Pudding is a major plot point.

19) Set in post-WWII Vienna, the film is over 50 years old. The line is by a character played by a man who directed and played the title character in what many critics claim is the best movie of all time. However, he didn't direct the film quoted from.

Correct, SenojRetep. Now a six-way tie for second. I'm surprised 15 is one of the last 2. There has been at least one thread on the film.

Extra extra-long quote for 11:
Harry: What is it out here with these women?
Harmony: Oh please, Harry, they're no different from anywhere else.
Harry: Yes, they are. These are damaged goods, every one of them, from way back. I'm telling you, you take a guy who sleeps with 100 women a year, go into his childhood - dollars to doughnuts, it's relatively unspectacular...
Harry: [putting a cigarette in his mouth] ... Now, you take one of these... gals, who sleeps with 100 guys a year, and I *bet* you if you look in their childhood, there's something rotten in Denver.
Harmony: Denmark.
Harry: [closing his cigarette lighter] That too! But it's abandonment, it's abuse, it's, "My uncle put his ping-ping in my papa!"... and then they all come out here!
Harry: [continuing] I mean, it's literally like someone took America by the East Coast and *shook* it, and all the normal girls managed to hang on.
Harmony: OK, everyone who hates Harry raise your hand!
[all the girls in the club raise their hands]
Harry: See that? Obedient little bitches too.

Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
In honor of my wife leaving me home alone tonight with nothing to do (except read "Computing Separable Functions via Gossip" and who wants to do that. Well, me, just not right now) I decided to write a new list. Enjoy. Normal rules (3/3 hrs, no google)

1) - I don't go on the, you know, missions, I just write reports for the CIA.
- Then write a report about it.
The Sum of All Fears


2) He came in to demand an answer and I told him the truth. That I have fought with myself over that night, one half of me swearing blind that I tied a simple slipknot, the other half convinced that I tied the Langford double. I can never know for sure.
The Prestige


3) - Hey, someone stole our dishes!
- They ain't stole. They're hid in the cupboard.
- My cup's been washed. Sugar's gone.
- Something's cooking. Smells good.
- Don't touch it, you fools! Might be poison. See? It's witch's brew.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs


4) I have your car towed all the way to your house and all you've got for me is *lite* beer?
Back to the Future


5) - I'm an important person you see. I have a tower, a wonderful tower it was, tall and grand.
- Are you?
- Of course.
- Where is your tower then?
- We aren't talking... We had an argument, you see.
Mirrormask


6) We were married today. We were going over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Your brother tries to kill me. A taxi is waiting and now you want to sleep on a window seat. You can take the honeymoon, your wedding ring, your taxi, your window seat, and put 'em in a barrel and push 'em all over Niagara Falls!
Arsenic and Old Lace


7) - But, look, you can't tell. Not even mom.
- Why not?
- Because grownups can't see him. Only little kids can see him.
E.T.


8) - I should have told you I was fired, I admit it. But I didn't want you to worry.
- You didn't want me to *worry*? And now we're running for our lives through some godforsaken jungle?
- You keep trying to pick a fight, but I'm still just happy you're alive.
The Incredibles


9) You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays. I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering.
The Music Man


10) - Your nose is broken.
- How does it look?
- Ah, it's an improvement
Rocky


11) I would like to sing for you now... a love song. I know you share this love. I pray that you will never let it die.
The Sound of Music


12) - Listen, I'm a big supporter of fixing potholes and erecting swing sets and building shelters. I am *more* than happy to pay those taxes. I'm just not such a big fan of the percentage that the government uses for national defense, corporate bailouts, and campaign discretionary funds. So, I didn't pay those taxes. I think I sent a letter to that effect with my return.
- Would it be the letter that beings "Dear Imperialist Swine"?
Stranger than Fiction


13) - What's this doohickey?
- It's a brassiere! You know about those things, you're a big boy now.
- I've never run across one like that.
- It's brand new. Revolutionary up-lift: No shoulder straps, no back straps, but it does everything a brassiere should do. Works on the principle of the cantilevered bridge.
- It does?
- An aircraft engineer down the peninsula designed it; he worked it out in his spare time.
- Kind of a hobby, a do-it-yourself kind of thing!
Vertigo


14) - They can see it, you know. You can't go on just pretending.
- Just pretending? You brought pretending into this family, James. You showed us we can change things by simply believing them to be different.
- A lot of things, Sylvia. Not everything.
- But the things that matter. We've pretended for some time now that you're a part of this family, haven't we? You've come to mean so much to us all that now, it doesn't matter if it's true. And even if it isn't true, even if that can never be... I need to go on pretending... until the end... with you.
Finding Neverland


15) Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain. For we've received orders for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore shall we see you again.
Jaws


16) Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months. And then, one not-so-very special day, I went to my typewriter, I sat down, and I wrote our story. A story about a time, a story about a place, a story about the people. But above all things, a story about love. A love that will live forever. The End.
Moulin Rouge!


17) Where are you taking me? I don't wanna go in there. Hey, let me out, it's dark in here. Come on, Mom, I want to be on TV. Let me out, Mom, or I'll gnaw my way out. I'm warning you, Mom, there's a nail file in here. If you don't let me out, I'll smear your lipstick all over everything. <that last bit is pretty muffled in the movie>
Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory


18) Welcome to downtown Coolsville! Population: us.
The Iron Giant


19) - I don't like your manners.
- And I'm not crazy about yours. I didn't ask to see you. I don't mind if you don't like my manners, I don't like them myself. They are pretty bad. I grieve over them on long winter evenings. I don't mind your ritzing me drinking your lunch out of a bottle. But don't waste your time trying to cross-examine me.
The Big Sleep


20) - It's disgraceful, you're old enough to be her... her grandfather.
- Well, I'm as human as the next man.
- Dad, I *was* the next man.

Arghh, Tara. You are right, it is Stranger Than Fiction, not You Can't Take It With You. There is a similar tirade in that movie, and I got them mixed up.

I'm waiting for Jon to edit, in case he wants to choose three guesses. If he doesn't do it in the next few minutes, I'll just take the first three that were correct, without comment on the correctness of the others.

[edit: gotta go to bed; early meetings in the morning. Since Jon had more than three correct (although I won't say which), if no one claims them in the next couple of hours I will reinstate the rest at the end of the 3 hr period.]

Posted by SenojRetep (Member # 8614) on :
 
Updated list; I reinstated JonHecht's previously correct guesses (except Last Crusade which went to Carrie), which really only effects DeathofBees who correclty got Music Man, but significantly after Jon got it.

No on your two, Morbo, although you got the character right on one.

Other clues:
(5) was co-written by a favorite author of many forum members
(18) animated
(19) a signature role for a great character actor of the 40s and 50s.

Umm, Morbo just told me that it was my turn.... so:


1) You don't know what a delightful dilemma it was, trying to decide on the most appropiate method for your demise. Oh, I had so many ingenious ideas I didn't know which to choose. So I decided to use them all. Marvellous, isn't it? But, here, let me show you how it works. Picture this, first, a sprightly tune I've recorded especially for you. As the song plays, the cord tightens, and when the song ends, the metal ball is released, rolling along its merry way until...

Great Mouse Detective - Blackblade


2) "Have you tested this theory?" "I find it works well enough to get me from one planet to another." The Day The Earth Stood Still - MrSquicky

3) "Oh, Mr. President, we seem to be alone. I, I'm not complaining for a social reason; it's just, I think it'd be a pity if these gentlemen missed any of this, and..." Mr Smith Goes to Washington - Lyrhawn

4) "This pass is for one person." "I am only one person. He is a servant." Three Musketeers - MrSquicky

5) "You killed my father, and you stole my elephant!" (This one makes me laugh every time I see the movie)

6) "I served under him. He was a good man." "Well, that's what the neighbors always say about serial killers."

7) "Cassandra in Greek legend, you recall, was condemned to know the future but to be disbelieved when she foretold it. Hence the agony of foreknowledge combined with the impotence to do anything about it." Twelve Monkeys - Strider

8) "I saw Robbie Taylor crying today. He didn't know, but I saw. Do you think I should report him?" Equilibrium - Nighthawk

9) "Don't you think that idea is a little half-baked?" "Oh no, Dad, it's completely baked."
The Graduate - SoaPiNuReYe


10) This isn't the Republicans versus the Democrats, where we're in a hole economically or... or we're in another war. This is more crucial than that. This is down to the line, folks, this is down to the line. There can be no more divisions among the living!

11) "Come on you apes, you wanna live forever? " Starship Troopers -Mucus

12) "What say we settle this on the runway... Han-Solo?" Zoolander -Enigmatic

13) "May the forks be with us" Mystery Men - Enigmatic

14) "Who's the father?" "Whiffet! I'm a virgin. Nah! Be great, though, wouldn't it?" Children of Men - Morbo

15) "Yeah, well, it's Philip's, okay? He won't let anybody near it. Honestly, I put half a Mars bar in the glove box once and he chased me around the garden with a bit of wood." Shaun of the Dead - Enigmatic

16) "What's nepotism?" "That's when your nephew's a damn poop!" How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying - Leonide

17) "How was India? I'll tell you how India was. I got up this morning and I shot an elephant in my pajamas." Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - Blackblade

18) "We're fix'in to die anytime, so if we kick off in the middle of the night, you're on your own" Seconhand Lions - Enigmatic

19) "You mean you're our real uncle? Because we've already got a fake uncle."
Spy Kids- SoaPiNuReYe


20) "I'm just a bill" Schoolhouse Rock -Blackblade

I own it on DVD, therefore it is a movie.
 
Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
 
I know #19. I can almost picture the scene. It might be a series of Unfortunate Events but I think it's set in a contemporary era which is obviously somewhat humorous and spoken by a young teen girl. I just can't for the life of me place it.

EDIT: I looked it up, and I'm not sure if it's spoken by a young teen girl but there's certainly one in the scene and it's a somewhat humorous movie set in a contemporary era.

Every time I read 5) "You killed my father, and you stole my elephant!" I'm reminded of an old joke.

A dog limps into a saloon.
"I'm looking for the man who shot my paw!" he barks.

I'll give it one more day, then hints. You guys were sooo confident that it was going to be easy... I lulled you into a false sense of security.


Edit: 6) The response was by Meryl Streep

5) The rising star of kung fu, Jackie cameoed in this movie.

10) There's a topic on the page 1 of the forums which relates to this very closely.

5) The Protector

10)Dawn of the Dead

Yes to both, and I think that means you win no matter who gets the final one.

I don't know how the last game ended, but I spent the last couple of hours making a list, so I'm posting it.

3 guesses/3 hours. No googling.

1) [L]et me fight with the rifle in one hand, and the Good Book in the other. So that if I may die at the muzzle of the rifle... die on water, or on land, I may know that you blessed Jesus almighty are with me... and I have no fear.
Glory


2) We had the chance but we were scared. We walked away. WE LIVED OUR LIVES IN FEAR!
Strictly Ballroom


3) Marriage license, did you say marriage license? Oh I love you Adam, Alex, Peter, Brian, whatever your name is.
Charade


4) You see, before he came down here, it never snowed. And afterwards, it did. If he weren't up there now... I don't think it would be snowing. Sometimes you can still catch me dancing in it.
Edward Scissorhands


5) - I wish you'd've done this for me when I was a kid.
- But you didn't have a drug problem then.
- Yeah, but it still would've meant a lot to me.
The Royal Tennenbaums


6) Thank you for every kindness. Thank you for our children. For the first time I saw them. Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts, for your sweetness. For how you always looked, for how I always wanted to touch you. You were my life. I apologize for everytime I ever failed you. Especially this one...
What Dreams May Come


7) - You know, you don't act like a scientist.
- They're usually pretty stiff.
- You're more like a game show host.
Ghostbusters


8) There are a dozen good brood mares in that mob. I'll be back for them... and for whatever else is mine.
The Man from Snowy River


9) Ten oughta do it, don't you think? You think we need one more? You think we need one more. All right, we'll get one more.
Ocean's Eleven


10) My characters shall have, after a little trouble, all that they desire.
Becoming Jane


11) - You guys broke up, right?
- Two hours ago!
Dan in Real Life


12) I'm still here, Chief
Frequency


13) - You a caddy?
- Uh, that depends. You a golfer?
Legend of Bagger Vance


14) If only I could go down that river. To love her in the wild, forget the name of Smith. I should tell her. Tell her what? It was just a dream. I am now awake.
The New World


15) - If you come any closer, I will rip you to shreds.
- Who are you?
- I am G'mork. And you, whoever you are, can have the honor of being my last victim.

16) - Will, am I a bad mother?
- No. No, you're not a bad mother. You're just a barking lunatic.
About a Boy


17) - Are you in love with her?
- No... I'm in love with you. And I'm in love with your beautiful woman. And I'm in love with your kids. And I'm even in love with your unborn child. I'm even in love with your anger! I'm in love with anything that lives!
In America


18) I've seen knights in armor panic at the first hint of battle. And I've seen the lowliest, unarmed squire pull a spear from his own body, to defend a dying horse. Nobility is not a birthright. It's defined by one's actions.
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves


19) It's a glow-in-the-dark compass ring. So you don't get lost.

20) The question is not whether I've treated you rudely but whether you've ever heard me treat anyone else better.

6) Thank you for every kindness. Thank you for our children. For the first time I saw them. Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts, for your sweetness.

14) If only I could go down that river. To love her in the wild, forget the name of Smith. I should tell her. Tell her what? It was just a dream. I am now awake.

17) - Are you in love with her?
- No... I'm in love with you. And I'm in love with your beautiful woman. And I'm in love with your kids. And I'm even in love with your unborn child. I'm even in love with your anger! I'm in love with anything that lives!

Well, cool. [Cool] Good list, Peter.

Unfortunately, I'm in the middle of moving and don't have time to make a game. Last time it took me hours over several days.

In 10 days or 2 weeks I can do it. If Raia or anyone else can do a game, they are welcome to.

What the heck, why not, I'll do one. Same rules, three guesses per hour.

1) - Your overconfidence is your weakness.
- Your faith in your friends is yours.

2) - You're named after the dog?
- I've got a lot of fond memories of that dog.

3) Winston! Peddle faster!

4) Fifteen guys, with chains, and dogs, you should see what they look like.

5) You know, you Irish cops are perking up. That's two sound theories in one day, neither of which deal with abnormally sized men. Kind of makes me feel like Riverdancing.

6) - What is it with you and Indians anyway?
- Oh, nothing. I try and shoot one a day, if possible, before noon. How 'bout you, Coop? I figure it's their fault for being on our land before we got here.

7) Just a little bit louder, because this song is intended for humans, okay? - Raia - Music and Lyrics

8) - Why is J. Edgar Hoover on your phone?
- I don't know, he's on everyone elses, why shouldn't he be on mine?

9) - They just blew up the president's car.
- That was the president's car? Did they get him?
- That's the bad news: no, they didn't.

10) This is my corn. You people are guests in my corn.

Half now, half later.

Other half:

11) Ah! He bit me with his butt

12) - Molly, you're in danger.
- You can't just blurt it out like that! And quit moving around, because you're starting to make me dizzy. I'll just tell her in my own way.
*pause*
- Molly, you in danger girl.

13) And I am *not* intoxicated... yet!

14) Oh, I know. I'll turn him into a flea, a harmless, little flea, and then I'll put that flea in a box, and then I'll put that box inside of another box, and then I'll mail that box to myself, and when it arrives...I'll smash it with a hammer!

15) Before you could say 'gypsy scum' we were knee-deep in dog muck, thieving kids and crusty jugglers.

16) Put some Windex on it.

17) But tonight, he's pitching against time, he's pitching against the future, against age, against ending. Tonight, he will make the fateful walk to the loneliest spot in the world, the pitching mound at Yankee Stadium, to push the sun back into the sky and give us one more day of summer.

18) Peace isn't merely the absence of conflict, but the presence of justice.

19) - Damn it, I'm an American! What makes us different from German-Americans or Italian-Americans?
- Pearl Harbor... I guess.

20) No hat, no stick, no pipe, not even a pocket handkerchief. How can one survive?

Alright you're forgiven then. I loved that one and the ROTK cartoon since I was a little kid. I love the way they took the songs from the book and put them in the movie, I love John Huston as Gandalf, I love that they took so many lines directly from the book and put them in the movie, and I loved that they followed the books, plotwise, closely, for what they included.

They aren't perfect, I mean it's 80's animation, so it ain't stellar, but it's Tolkien [Smile]

Biggest reason was that it's the type of thing the main character would have said, that is, to insult someone and then say, "no offense". Also it seems to me that the quote was said in a bar, and I thought there were a couple bar scenes in that movie. Of course, this is the 1992 movie, there may be others.

This one is drivin' me nuts. I'm positive that I own the movie that this quote is in, my memory is just a little fuzzy.

I think the uncorrected is a combination of that and the Cantina scene with Ponda Baba and Dr. Evazan (names are close but whatever) where he say "He doesn't like you...I don't like you either!"
 
Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
 
I guess there is a precedent of giving clues so we can close the books on this one. # 10 is from a love story set mostly in New York- though I guess that particular line was uttered on the west coast.

Just for fun. 3 guesses/3 hours.

1) Look, kid, I - how much you weigh, son? When you weighed one hundred and sixty-eight pounds you were beautiful. You coulda been another Billy Conn, and that skunk we got you for a manager, he brought you along too fast.
- It wasn't him, Charley, it was you. Remember that night in the Garden you came down to my dressing room and you said, "Kid, this ain't your night. We're going for the price on Wilson." You remember that? "This ain't your night"! My night! I coulda taken Wilson apart! So what happens? He gets the title shot outdoors on the ballpark and what do I get? A one-way ticket to Palooka-ville! You was my brother, Charley, you shoulda looked out for me a little bit. You shoulda taken care of me just a little bit so I wouldn't have to take them dives for the short-end money.
- Oh I had some bets down for you. You saw some money.
- You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it. It was you, Charley.
On the Waterfront


2) Do you think Death could possibly be a boat?
- No, no, no... Death is "not." Death isn't. Take my meaning? Death is the ultimate negative. Not-being. You can't not be on a boat.
- I've frequently not been on boats.
- No, no... What you've been is not on boats.
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead


3) You see, before he came down here, it never snowed. And afterwards, it did. If he weren't up there now... I don't think it would be snowing. Sometimes you can still catch me dancing in it.
Edward Scissorhands


4) You don't care.
- We don't care? We do care!
- No you don't.
- That is just not true! Every person in this town bends over backward to make Bianca feel at home. Why do you think she has so many places to go and so much to do? Huh? Huh? Because of you! Because - all these people - love you! We push her wheelchair. We drive her to work. We drive her home. We wash her. We dress her. We get her up, and put her to bed. We carry her. And she is not petite. Bianca is a big, big girl! None of this is easy - for any of us - but we do it... Oh! We do it for you! So don't you dare tell me how we don't care.
Lars and the Real Girl


5) Not well? What is illness to the body of a knight-errant? What matter wounds? For each time he falls, he shall rise again, and woe to the wicked.
The Man of La Mancha


6) *Math* is the great equalizer... When you go for a job, the person giving you that job will not want to hear your problems; ergo, neither do I. You're going to work harder here than you've ever worked anywhere else. And the only thing I ask from you is *ganas.* *Desire.*
Stand and Deliver


7) I'll tell you one thing, Fred, darling... I'd marry you for your money in a minute. Would you marry me for my money?
- In a minute.
- I guess it's pretty lucky neither of us is rich, huh?
- Yeah.
Breakfast at Tiffany's


8) So he showed up not dead yet. Let that be a lesson to you, boys and girls. Don't ever argue with the big dog, because the big dog is always right.
The Fugitive


9) I'm shakin' the dust of this crummy little town off my feet and I'm gonna see the world. Italy, Greece, the Parthenon, the Colosseum. Then, I'm comin' back here to go to college and see what they know. And then I'm gonna build things. I'm gonna build airfields, I'm gonna build skyscrapers a hundred stories high, I'm gonna build bridges a mile long...
It's a Wonderful Life


10) [I]s that what you think of when you think of me? Do I remind you of that night?
- Not at all. You remind me of everything that followed. Everyday since then has been a gift
The Namesake


11) Mister Hart, here is a dime. Take it, call your mother, and tell her there is serious doubt about you ever becoming a lawyer.
The Paper Chase


12) Do you think mighty Mouse could beat up Superman?
- What are you, cracked?
- Why not? I saw the other day, he was carrying five elephants in one hand!
- Boy, you don't know nothing! Mighty Mouse is a cartoon. Superman's a real guy. There's no way a cartoon could beat up a real guy.
- Yeah, maybe you're right. It'd be a good fight, though.
Stand by Me


13) Mind-bottling, isn't it?
- Did you just say mind-bottling?
- Yeah, mind-bottling. You know, when things are so crazy it gets your thoughts all trapped, like in a bottle?
Blades of Glory


14) You're a scammer and you're a manipulator. You think that I don't know you? You are dead wrong. The only thing that has ever come out of your mouth is lies. Six years old... the paint... the paint all over your hands. All over our couch? 'I didn't do it.' 16 years old with the beer cans in my car. 'I didn't do it.' Let me hear you say it again, Alice. Come on! Let me hear you say it in here, huh? Come on, one for old times' sake!
- [screaming] I didn't do it!
Brokedown Palace


15) You're some piece of work... You're also a natural character.
- [to Carmen] You see? I been tellin' her that. I got natural character.
- That's not what I said, kid. I said you *are* a natural character; you're an incredible flake. But that's a *gift*. Some guys spend half their lives trying to invent something like that. You walk into a pool room with that go-go-go, the guys'll be *killing* each other, trying to get to you. You got that... But I'll tell you something, kiddo. You couldn't find Big Time if you had a road map.
The Color of Money


16) Do you know why I hired you? I always hire the same girl- stylish, slender, of course... worships the magazine. But so often, they turn out to be- I don't know- disappointing and, um... stupid. So you, with that impressive résumé and the big speech about your so-called work ethic- I, um- I thought you would be different. I said to myself, go ahead. Take a chance. Hire the smart, fat girl. I had hope. Anyway, you ended up disappointing me more than, um- more than any of the other silly girls.
The Devil Wears Prada


17) Oh my, this is a twist in our story! It's the brave little princess coming to the rescue. I guess this makes you the damsel in distress, huh, handsome?
Enchanted


18) Sweet. Ginger. Brown
The Flamingo Kid


19) This is my house, I have to defend it.
Home Alone


20) Look at those palm trees. Damn! You know what that means?
- Yeah. Watch out for falling coconuts.

Hints on the final three:

2) First a successful play (based on a much MORE successful play), then a wonderful movie, if people haven't seen this they should check it out today.

14) Much of this Claire Daines movie takes place in a Thai prison.

18) A country club, a sports car dealership, lots of card playing, and learning the importance of family, honesty and integrity, all in one short summer. Plus, Matt Dillon.

18) is Flamingo Kid.

Usually the winner puts up the next list. I'd give Jon 24 hrs to put something up, or for him to cede the right to you. After that, I'd say it's free rein.

I cede it. I may love watching movie, but not as much as I hate making lists.

Edit: Oh, and the only reason I enjoyed Hamlet was because of David Tennant.

1) -Twenty pounds now and then will amply discharge my promise to my father, you are quite right.
-Indeed. Although to say the truth, I am convinced within myself your father had no idea of your giving them money.
-They will have five hundred a year amongst them as it is –
-And what on earth could four women want with more than that? Their housekeeping will be nothing at all, they will have no carriage, no horses, hardly any servants, and will keep no company. Only conceive how comfortable they will be! (Sense and Sensibility)

2) -What if your home – what if your family – what if your dope was on fire??
-Impossible, sir. It’s in Johnson’s underpants. (Breakfast Club)

3) -Ask me anything, I’ll tell you the truth.
-Best shag you’ve ever had.
-Brittney Spears. …. Only joking. She was rubbish. (Love Actually)

4) -I have you down for several violations… speeding, resisting arrest, driving without a license, driving a stolen vehicle, possession of a stolen tree – where’s the tree?
-We planted it.
-Is this your shovel?
-No.
-Possession of a stolen shovel… (Harold and Maude)

5) –Ever been to Wisconsin?
-No.
-Well they have some of the coldest winters around, and I grew up there, near Chippewa Falls. Once when I was a kid, me and my father went ice-fishing out on Lake Wissota – ice-fishing is where you chop a hole in the –
-I know what ice-fishing is!
-Sorry…Just you look like kind of an indoor girl. Anyway, I went through some thin ice, and I’m telling ya… water that cold – like that right down there – it hits you like a thousand knives all over your body. You can’t breathe, you can’t think – at least not about anything but the pain. Which is why I’m not looking forward to jumping in after you. But like I said, I don’t see a choice. I guess I’m kinda hoping you’ll come back over the rail and get me off the hook here. (Titanic)


6) ARGG! SHE ALWAYS WINS! … Don’t pick it up. STOP PICKING IT UP!

7) –So you gonna ride shotgun with me, help me fly?
-That’s the plan.
-Think you can work out… Okay… Clearly some aptitude for the… It ain’t all buttons and charts, little albatross. You know what the first rule of flying is? Well I suppose you do, since you already know what I’m about to say.
-I do. But I like to hear you say it. (Serenity)

8) Listen, I need to get to the East Australian Current…
-Dude – you’re riding it, dude! Check it out!
(Finding Nemo)

9) Almighty Lord, word of God the father of Jesus Christ, God and Lord of all creation who gave to your holy apostle the power to tramp underfoot serpents and scorpions. Grant me, your unworthy servant, pardon for all my sins, and the power to confront this cruel demon…
(The Exorcist)

10) -You don’t understand. We charted the boat. We’re going fishing. And that’s all there is to it.
-You better quit on this. They’ll throw you in the can again, you know?
-No, they won’t. We’re nuts!
(One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest)

11) Thirteen months to the day since [he] sent us on our long journey, we found ourselves looking on a familiar sight. We were home. How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when if your heart you begin to understand there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.
(Return of the King)

12) –Look, I don’t think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying ‘Jehovah’!
-You’re only making it worse for yourself!
-Worse?? How could it be worse?? Jehovah! Jehovah! Jehovah!
-I’m warning you. If you say Jehovah once more – right, who threw that? Come on, who threw it?
-She did! It was her!
-Was it you?
-Yes.
-Right!
-Well, you did say ‘Jehovah’!
-Stop it! Stop, will you?! Stop it! No one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle! Do you understand? Even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they DO say ‘Jehovah’!
(Life of Brian)

13) –Why is it, would you say, that some people seem to get whatever they want in life? Everything they touch turns to gold. Whereas others can strive and strive… and have nothing. I wonder, do you believe in luck? Do you believe that some men are lucky, and some men aren’t, and there’s nothing they can do about it?
-I believe in love. Not just getting it. Giving it. I think as long as you can love somebody, whether or not they love you, then it’s worth it, and –
-That’s a good answer.
(Gosford Park)

14) Was there a dog in here just now…?
(Death a at Funeral)

15) I give myself some very good advice… but I rarely seldom follow it…and that explains the trouble that I’m always in.
(Alice in Wonderland)

16) Understanding poetry by Dr. J Evans Pritchard, PhD. To fully understand poetry, we must first be fluent with its meter, rhyme, and figures of speech, then ask two questions: 1 How artfully has the objective of the poem been rendered and 2 how important is that objective? Question 1 rates the poem’s perfection; Question 2 rates its importance. And once these questions have been answered, determining the poem’s greatness becomes a relatively simple matter. If the poem’s score for perfection is plotted on the horizontal of a graph –
(Dead Poet's Society)

17) –I’m not mad. I’m in a ****ing great mood. Despite the fact that I’m trapped in a fat suit I can’t take off, despite the fact that everyone is making fun of me behind my back, despite the fact that your little girlfriend gave me the stinkeye in art class the other day…
-Katrina’s not my girlfriend! And I doubt she was actually giving you the stinkeye. She just looks like that all the time.
(Juno)

18) –Okay, let’s just talk. I have two children. My husband is a top chef. Like that makes me something. Anyway, he works night, so…
-Do you work?
-Yes. No. Not right now. Why? How do you know to ask that? It’s okay… I can talk about it. I just… I ran a commercial design company until four months ago… When it was downsized to zip. Now I’m a full time mom. Gulp!
(Spanglish)

19) –I don’t see any point in writing a story if you’re not going to let anyone read it.
-It’s not ready yet.
-What’s it about?
-It’s about a young girl, a young and foolish girl, who sees something from her bedroom window that she doesn’t understand, but thinks she does… I probably won’t ever finish it.
-I look at you and you’re so mysterious. I’ve never been mysterious. You know what I decided tonight?
-What?
-I could never marry a man who wasn’t in the royal navy.
(Atonement)

Be it proposed: Poison Ivy staring pre-Back to the Future Michael J. Fox and pre-pre-pre-Serenity Adam Baldwin is the best teen comedy about summer camp ever made.

Okay, so I clicked that link, and at the bottom of it it has a few different camp movies in the "recommendation" area, so I'm gonna guess the first one just to keep this going.

Wet Hot American Summer?

New round already! Time's a wasting.

Would it be possible to declare the time a new set of movies is going up? It's tedious to go on the forums when I get home only to find that several hours have already elapsed and there is no way I can win.
 
Posted by EmpSquared (Member # 10890) on :
 
Enough of play this that a two day limit from the original posting time should be plenty. Six days is pretty nuts.
 
Posted by EmpSquared (Member # 10890) on :
 
Alright, here's a new list. It's a few quotes shorter. Two day time limit!

11. -What am I gonna do with 40 subscriptions to Vibe? Office Space
12. -My name is no jest, beanpole. It's all very well to have a short name when you're twenty feet tall, but small people need large names to give them weight.

13. Back to the Future
15. Very distressing scene from Last King of Scotland
 
Posted by EmpSquared (Member # 10890) on :
 
Yeah. There's a lot of distress in this list.

All correct, as always.

My DVD collection recently grew to over 300.

I think I was curled up in a ball trying not to watch that scene in the Last King of Scotland.

Alas, I know none of these definitely. Some of them sound vaguely familiar, though...

2- The Man with One Red Shoe? (haven't seen it, but it seems likely)
 
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
 
12. Krull (I love that movie, but was unaware that anyone else had even heard of it)

And I did a lot of cringing during that last scene in Last King of Scotland, but not more so than I did when they showed the wife's dismembered body. I threw up in my mouth a little bit when I saw that. Forrest Whittaker scared the bejeezus out of me. Seriously. His wild eyed crazyness and the sheer brutality that went along with it was like combining something out of Saw with Hotel Rwanda. It's not a movie I ever plan on watching again.

It would have been Trent or Jon, and I know Jon doesn't like listing the quotes. Someone could probably just make up a new list.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
I don't really have the time right now. So, I'm going to call "not it" on the making up a new list gig.

#8 is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
Correct, on both!
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Is #10 Anastasia? Geez, I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid...I had to think on this one. I knew it sounded familiar.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
#20 may well be, in fact, the hilariously dumb Starsky and Hutch. That movie is a killer. Especially Will Ferrell...one of the better cameos in a comedy film.

The other ones I do not know.

Good quotes, to slow on the ones I knew, haven't a clue on the rest.

Yep, Steve!

Mwahaha! 18 is The Parent Trap! Different "f" word. I think I'm right anyways. Too many rainy afternoons with little sisters.

Maybe we could score some hints on these last few?

Sorry, I've been internet-less for the past 36 hours, but am back now. Will post hints shortly.
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
2) A recent movie. This line is spoken by the male protagonist in his apartment, and the girl is wearing a red dress.
3) NOT a recent movie. The whole film is filled with this type of witticism, while the two main characters, thrust into a writing situation together, fight to meet a deadline.
11) This line is spoken in a British accent, by a woman to her daughter.
12) Again, not recent at all. This movie was remade under a different title, and the new one stars Tom Hanks.
13) This movie stars a famous female actress... twice. And, nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
14) This line is spoken by a very minor character, to a major one. It's a musical.
17) Another musical. Come on guys. You know this one.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Oooh, oooh. Is #17 from My Fair Lady?
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Running with the Tom Hanks + Remake= Clue. I'm going to go ahead and guess The Shop Around the Corner for #12. Tom Hanks is in You've Got Mail.
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
Yes, and yes! [Smile] Well done!
 
Posted by Boris (Member # 6935) on :
 
14 - Hello Dolly

Yep!
 
Posted by aiua (Member # 7825) on :
 
11.) Bridget Jones's Diary!

Oh, and
2.) is Music and Lyrics.

I seem to have a thing for Hugh Grant.
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
Hehe... well, it could be worse. [Smile]

And yes, those are quite correct. I was surprised that Bridget Jones lasted so long without anyone getting it!
 
Posted by aiua (Member # 7825) on :
 
Got it! It was the Monty Python reference that did it.
13.) is with Paltrow, Doors something. Or Something Doors.. Doors Closing. Closing Doors. Screen Doors? No, that's not quite it either.
Someone help me out?
 
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
 
Haha, I'll go ahead and give it to you... you're close enough! It's Sliding Doors. [Smile]

Well, if it's any consolation (apart from 9, which is driving me CRAZY), I'm not sure if I know the others!

And somebody already got #13 (It was Juno.) so I wouldn't worry about it.

Do I need to give a hint for the last one?
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Or should I just give the answers for the last two and declare aiua the winner? No one is close enough to beat 7.

I have absolutely no idea what they are.
But we can't give up without a hint, can we?
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
I looked them up. Except for the last one, which I can't even find.

I'd be surprised if anyone gets them.
 
Posted by aiua (Member # 7825) on :
 
XD You're right. I've never even heard of those two.

As for the last one, it sounds like it might be a DVD extra or something..
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Hint for #1: This adaptation of a controversial TV star's unauthorized autobiography was George Clooney's directorial debut.

Hint for...the other one: This critically panned comedic film stars Will Arnett (of GOB fame) as one of two sons desperately trying to fulfill his father's dying wish to meet his first grandchild.

#21 isn't anything anyone would have seen. I just put it up for fun. It's from a student film I helped make a few years ago (the line was directed at my character) that was briefly available for viewing on YouTube. It was entitled Erik the Red. And was worth no points for the level of obscurity and lack of notoriety. And I knew no one would know it.

Edit:

Anyone can guess these. I am effectively passing the game torch to aiua. So, toss up a list, champion.

17) Being perfect is not about that scoreboard out there. It's not about winning. It's about you and your relationship with yourself, your family and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didnt let them down because you told them the truth. And that truth is you did everything you could. There wasnt one more thing you could've done. Can you live in that moment as best you can, with clear eyes, and love in your heart, with joy in your heart? If you can do that gentleman - you're perfect!

Not even close.

Number 1 and number 11 were released in the same year. Both movies are considered classics. Both speakers have last names that can also be used as first names.

1. Here lies the body of Mary Lee; died at the age of a hundred and three. For fifteen years she kept her virginity; not a bad record for this vicinity.

2. As most of you may know, we're not home yet. We're only halfway there.

Correct. That's one of my favorite quotes; or at least it comes up in my mind all the time. The few times I let it out (verbally) no one's picked up on it. Which doesn't surprise me but it does disappoint. So thank-you. [Big Grin]

I'm a little of out of practice at this, so I'm not sure I've targeted my list well. It may be way too easy, or way too hard, but I figured I'd give it a go for old time's sake.

The rules of the game (adapted for the slower flow of the current forum): 3 guesses per 6 hours and the person who gets the most right wins and makes a list of their own.

1) We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down, and worry about our place in the dirt. -Interstellar -Strider

2) What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient... highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks; right in there somewhere. -Inception -JanitorBlade

3) Tell Commander Lewis, disco sucks. -The Martian -Hobbes

4) Greed can be a very powerful ally. -Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace -Sean Monahan

5) - How long until we get to his estate?
- [laughs] We've been flying over his estate for the past 2 hours. -Ex Machina -JanitorBlade


6) - I was briefed on your criminal career. Your balls are on the end of a very long leash, held by a very short man.
- I wonder if it was your father's shame that gave you such drive... Or was it your mother's reputation? I understand that she was extremely popular amongst your father's friends. -The Man from U.N.C.L.E. -Strider


7) I am in love with you. And I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed. And that one day all our labor will be returned to dust. And I know that the sun will swallow the only earth we will ever have. And I am in love with you. -The Fault in Our Stars -Hobbes

8) Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life's problems. -Inside Out -Mr. Y

9) - That is so fetch!
- Gretchen, stop trying to make fetch happen! It's not going to happen! -Mean Girls -Strider


10) So what? I had my suspicions. I always did. But we're not like other people. We love each other in our own way, and we can still live the life together that we want. You won't be the perfect husband? I can promise you I harboured no intention of being the perfect wife. I'll not be fixing your lamb all day awaiting your return from the office, will I? I'll work. You'll work. We'll have each other's company. We'll have each other's minds. Sounds like a better marriage than most. Because I care for you. And you care for me. And we understand one another more than anyone else ever has. -Imitation Game -Strider

11) Battle is the Great Redeemer. It is the fiery crucible in which true heroes are forged. The one place where all men truly share the same rank, regardless of what kind of parasitic scum they were going in -Edge of Tomorrow/Live. Die. Repeat -PanaceaSanans

12) ¡Ven conmigo! ¡Te mostraré las maravillas de la galaxia, y juntos lucharemos contra el despiadado Zurg! -Toy Story 3 -Strider

13) 'Cubs win world series... against Miami'?
- Yeah, it's something, huh? Who would've thought? 100 to 1 shot! I wish I could go back to the beginning of the season, put some money on the Cubs. -Back to the Future: Part 2 -Hobbes


14) Today. Today... At the edge of our hope, at the end of our time, we have chosen not only to believe in ourselves, but in each other. Today there is not a man nor woman in here that shall stand alone. Not today. Today we face the monsters that are at our door and bring the fight to them! -Pacific Rim -Hobbes

15) I shall always love the maiden that ran away.
- And I the faraway Prince -Into the Woods


16) We made history today. "History starts out as farce and ends up as tragedy."
- Quote's the other way around.
- Yeah? Who said it?
- Marx.
- Groucho said that? -Argo -Hobbes


17) In his eagerness to save you, your God has also saved the Roman fleet. -Ben-Hur (1959) - Hobbes

18) I admit we knew we'd get in trouble. That part's true. We knew people would be worried, and we still ran away, anyway. But something also happened, which we didn't do on purpose. When we first met each other, something happened to us.
- That's very eloquent. I can't argue against anything you're saying. But then again, I don't have to, 'cause you're 12 years old -Moonrise Kingdom -Mr. Y


19) How do a bunch of guys with hand tools build all this?
- Same way they built the pyramids - and the Great Wall of China.
- Yeah... the aliens helped them. -National Treasure -Hobbes


20) In the past, all a King had to do was look respectable in uniform and not fall off his horse. Now we must invade people's homes and ingratiate ourselves with them. This family's been reduced to those lowest, basest of all creatures. We've become actors! -The King's Speech -Mr. Y

Both correct, which gives you an insurmountable lead. Hobbes wins the round!

The final quote is from Into The Woods, which is a great musical, and from which Disney made a good movie. But I still like the old Great Performances version with the original Broadway cast better.

Ball is in your court, Hobbes, if you want to make up a new list (you could even include the quotes from five years ago that no one was able to get. Or not.)

1 The thing he wanted to do something about, was little kids getting picked up in the beaks of flies and carried off.

2 Add this to the theme song, and the main character was lucky he was unconscious for all this.

4 Turns out he also spends some amount of time arresting him and then having humorous discussions with the deputy.

5 Up a full tone, down a major third, down an octave, up a perfect fifth.

6 Don’t trouble your own home.

7 OSC doesn’t like this movie, every critic does.

9 Herzog says he was born to play this role.

11 The asterisks are appropriate, as this is one of the most profane movies in the mainstream.

14 A younger woman and an older man: who writes these things?

15 The main character of this movie really did have all the words: having copied out the dictionary.

17 The speaker spends the movie getting involved in high-tech hijinks, and having a love affair with a pair of shoes.

18 It turns out that the perpetrator did not have complete control.

More direct clues:

1 The original had Peter Faulk, but they sadly made a remake where Michael Douglas played his role.

2 But did you ever like the spinach puffs?

4 But keep in mind, I’m basically just on my way to Australia.

5 I refuse to give another clue after my last one. Someone play that and you’ll figure it out.

6 Then why did God plague us with the capacity to think? Mr. Brady, why do you deny the one faculty of man that raises him above the other creatures of the earth? The power of his brain to reason. What other merit have we? The elephant is larger; the horse is swifter and stronger; the butterfly is far more beautiful; the mosquito is more prolific. Even the simple sponge is more durable. But does a sponge think?

9 [Clarification on first hint: Herzog was talking about an actor he was directing, he was not referring to himself]. Does this word not sound like the midnight call of the Bird of Death? Do not utter it, or the images of life will fade - into pale shadows and ghostly dreams will rise from your heart and feed your Blood.

15 Plymouth rock landed on us.

15 - Malcolm X

I used an online midi maker to play the melody for (5). Didn't recognize it, but then I googled the quote and realized why - I've never seen the movie. Somewhat heretical of me, but I've just never gotten around to it. But once I saw a Youtube clip of the particular scene it's featured in, I can see why that tune would be very recognizable for someone who had seen the movie.

Final set of hints (with old ones included):

1 Sadly there's very little you can do because of the tremendous red tape in the bush.

The thing he wanted to do something about, was little kids getting picked up in the beaks of flies and carried off.

The original had Peter Faulk, but they sadly made a remake where Michael Douglas played his role.

Peter Faulk’s son is marrying Alan Arkin’s daughter.

2 Reason number 2, look what I can do.
-But, what does that have to do with...
-No, no. He's got a point.

Add this to the theme song, and the main character was lucky he was unconscious for all this.

But did you ever like the spinach puffs?

The main character gets significant physical changes in the antagonists “secret lab”.


6 I do not think about things I do not think about.
-Do you ever think about things that you do think about?

Don’t trouble your own home.

Then why did God plague us with the capacity to think? Mr. Brady, why do you deny the one faculty of man that raises him above the other creatures of the earth? The power of his brain to reason. What other merit have we? The elephant is larger; the horse is swifter and stronger; the butterfly is far more beautiful; the mosquito is more prolific. Even the simple sponge is more durable. But does a sponge think?

They lose the case but win the war, hinted at by the fact that the judge assigns such a small penalty to the crime.

9 Let us chat together a moment, my friend! There are still several hours until dawn, and I have the whole day to sleep.

Herzog says he was born to play this role.

[Clarification on first hint: Herzog was talking about an actor he was directing, he was not referring to himself]. Does this word not sound like the midnight call of the Bird of Death? Do not utter it, or the images of life will fade - into pale shadows and ghostly dreams will rise from your heart and feed your Blood.

It was one of Herzog’s few remakes: the original quote should give you a clue to what kind of creature stars in the film.

18 I should've called the police that night but I was weak. You convinced me to stay silent; I regret that.

It turns out that the perpetrator did not have complete control.

If I could do something like that, I'd be the star of my AARP meetings

Clint Eastwood says the previous line, but not the initial quote.

19 It is recognized that you have a funny sense of fun.

This quote is followed by one of the two most famous smash cuts in cinema.

I Since you do know... ...we can claim to arrive in the name of Feisal of Mecca?
-Yes, [name], you may claim it. But in whose name do you ride?

The best of them won’t come for money, they’ll come for me.

20/Bonus) You're a monster. That's not a guess. It's what I'm calling you.

There are three left to go. If Strider gets one he seals the deal, but as it stands: 4 people can still win or tie.
