Movie Lines Game.

[rog]

Very simple game, pick a quote from a film and then everyone gets to guess what film it's from. Feel free to give clues or chat about films mentioned :) Whoever gets the answer correct gets to pick the next quote.

If the winner doesn't post a new line within 24 hours of his winning post, the first one on after that gets to post one.

You do need to wait for confirmation of your win if we are If you're 100% confident that you have the correct movie, but egg on your face if you claim victory, post a new quote and are wrong :D

"have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?"

[cnorman18]

Batman, 1989. Jack Nicholson as the Joker spoke the line.

Here's one:

"Let's get outta here. "

(Sorry, trick question. I read somewhere that that line is on the scripts of 80% or so of all the movies ever made.)

Here's a real one:

"Good evening, Miss McKenna. You don't know me -- but you will."

[rog]

My mom's favourite film "somewhere in time"
I think I'd discovered the problem with this game. It rhythms with oogle...
:facepalm:

[Barefoot Bree]

Meh. Don't worry, Rog, it'll just make the game go faster. Most of us interested in this kind of thing are able to limit our usage of such cheats, IMO.

Your turn, though.

[cnorman18]

My mom's favourite film "somewhere in time"


Yep, that's it. Sorry about not waiting for my answer to be confirmed, but I was SO sure...

[Worldtraveller]

Easy one:
"I don't think that means what you think it means."

[neilstone40]

The Princess Bride?

[rog]

Easy one:
"I don't think that means what you think it means."

Even thought it might have been my turn, we'll take this one as being it :)

[cnorman18]

The Princess Bride?

I think that's correct. That makes it your turn. Any confirmation of that from Worldtraveller?

Good game, let's keep it going. I've got my next one all set.

[Goodchild]

Good game, let's keep it going. I've got my next one all set.

Yes, please do. I've had a line set since this thread started but winners are taking forever to give the next line. Get on with it! :D

[Barefoot Bree]

New Rule: If the winner doesn't post a new line within 48 hours of his winning post, the first one on after that gets to post one.

Or should that be 24 hours?

[cnorman18]

I say 24. May I throw one in just to keep this going? Here it is, an exchange this time:

"What ARE you?"

"I'm -- complicated."

[rog]

I say 24. May I throw one in just to keep this going? Here it is, an exchange this time:

League of extraordinary gentlemen - Dorian grey.
And I didn't need to cheat :)

"I'm not going to shoot you between the eyes, I'm going to shoot you between the balls!"

24 hours seems fine as a limit to me :)

100%! Hard line to forget if one has seen the movie.

"I'm not going to shoot you between the eyes, I'm going to shoot you between the balls!"

Not a clue, and I refuse to cheat. I think we should all be on our honor not to Google a line.

24 hours seems fine as a limit to me :)

[Barefoot Bree]

Do we need to wait for confirmation of our win if we are confident we have the correct movie?

I've no idea on this last one. Dirty Harry?

[rog]

Do we need to wait for confirmation of our win if we are confident we have the correct movie?


If you're 100% then no, but egg on your face if you claim victory, post a new quote and are wrong :D

Not Dirty Harry, no.

[Barefoot Bree]

Rog, would you care to edit these new rules into your OP for benefit of people who join the game later?

[rog]

Rog, would you care to edit these new rules into your OP for benefit of people who join the game later?

I've done just that, thanks.

[cnorman18]

So what's the answer for "between the balls"? I've got another all set, and it may be even harder.

[rog]

So what's the answer for "between the balls"? I've got another all set, and it may be even harder.

Commando - too low brow?

I've seen it -- just didn't remember the line. Been a long time.

So can I post my new one? Shouldn't take long to solve:

"God wouldn't be up this late..."

[Barefoot Bree]

Dammit, Charles, you beat me!

[Goodchild]

That's one of my favorite movies and I actually just watched it recently :) I'll wait awhile though to see if anyone else gets it, I'm patient.

Please don't be! Get straight in there with your answer if you have one, otherwise we could be here all day - these games are supposed to be played at speed, we're not on a daily rate here :)

Agreed. Spit it out so Bree can have her turn.

[Goodchild]

Sigh, if you insist :)

It's from Hackers, spoken by 'Plague' ... the evil dickwad ;)

eta First movie I ever saw Angelina Jolie in and she was great even then. Plus Johnny Lee Miller who also stars in another of my favorite movies, Aeon Flux.

eta2 Oh, and can't forget Matthew Lillard! Great cast IMO

[Goodchild]

Oh, and I suppose I should provide a quote for the next one :)

"You made me swallow my gum! That's going to be in my digestive tract for seven years! "

Excellent. Watched it yesterday -- and I agree that Angelina was hot, even before she was a huge star -- maybe hotter. Great story without spending millions on SFX.

On your quote? Not a clue. Sounds familiar, but I can't place it.

[Goodchild]

Excellent. Watched it yesterday -- and I agree that Angelina was hot, even before she was a huge star -- maybe hotter. Great story without spending millions on SFX.

The only thing 'wrong' with it, IMO, is the typical 90s representation of what computers do ... the vast cyberscape that you fly through and such. It's so cheesy, but everyone was doing it so what the heck :D But like you say, it was the story that was interesting.

[Goodchild]

So, should I put up an easier one or does someone want to go ahead and use google-fu to sort it out?

[cnorman18]

I say again; we're on our honor not to Google. You know it, or you don't.

[Silly Sausage]

Oh, and I suppose I should provide a quote for the next one :)

"You made me swallow my gum! That's going to be in my digestive tract for seven years! "

Scott Pilgrim vs The World. Love that film, I don't why it didn't do better.

My turn? Its an easy one, but from one of my favourite films of all time.

"Damn The Man, Save the Empire".

[Barefoot Bree]

OK THIS PISSES ME OFF.

That's the second time in TWO days that somebody else jumped in while I was literally typing my answer up!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr

*stomps off in a huff and puts thread on ignore*

[Silly Sausage]

:o Sorry Bree, I'll try and find some naked David Tennant pics for you to make up for it. Trust me, they're out there (although he's much younger in the pics).

[Goodchild]

It actually did fantastic when it was released to home video, making up for it's poor box-office performance.

And I have no clue at all on your quote :)

[cnorman18]

Okay, I Googled it, and now I know. Never saw it -- and I WON'T enter my answer. Cheating isn't my style. Probably explains why I'm usually broke.

Its been a couple of days now. Mine was 'Empire Records'.
I'm giving my go to Bree, so BB, its over to you :)

"You made me swallow my gum! That's going to be in my digestive tract for seven years! "

Scott Pilgrim vs The World. Love that film, I don't why it didn't do better.

Is it good? It looks somewhat like a teen "Big trouble in little china" sort of thing and has a really stunning pretty girl with purple hair in it (which is always a good thing) but I've seen mostly poor reviews.

Its a lot of fun, with some great graphics and enjoyable characters. And yes, the girl in it is very pretty, its nice to see a leading lady who is beautiful in a non-typical Hollywood way.

[Anne]

It's silly and relaxing, and easy to like for the video game motif, if you are the type of geek who likes punk music, bidungsromans and video games.

and her hair changes colors a lot in it.

The only thing I can really think of that would lead to a poor review is that the relationship between Scott and Ramona is never really developed. Basically he likes her after seeing her one time, she decides to like him back after a bit, then he fights for her. It's the one bad spot in an otherwise thoroughly entertaining and well-done film.

[cnorman18]

Bree tells me by PM that she's unable to post a quote at this time, and handed it off to me. Thanks, Bree. I've been dying to put this one up -- should be easy, though.

"You couldn't be more wrong! They're not taunting you -- they're saluting you!"

[Full Tilt Boogie]

Zulu. The Boer officer to Michael Cane.

[cnorman18]

Well, it's Caine, but that's correct. His first major role, I believe. Wonderful picture, about a remarkable event. More VCs awarded for Rorke's Drift than for any other single action in the history of the British Army, unless I misremember.

Well, what's the next one?

[Full Tilt Boogie]

OK, here's the next one.

"Hey, if I can't kvetch, I can't do my job"

[cnorman18]

OK, here's the next one.

"Hey, if I can't kvetch, I can't do my job"

Oy, gevalt! I don't know it.

[cnorman18]

Hey, hey! What's the deal? Let's keep this one going!

If nobody has an answer for the last one, here's another. Should be easy:

"Am I in Hell?"

"Not yet..."

[cnorman18]

Okay, here's another; maybe this one will attract interest. Ought to be easy enough...

"Okinawa, belt mean no need rope hold pants up. Ha, ha!"

[rog]

Karate kid?

[cnorman18]

Karate kid?

Correct! Your turn!

(Told you it was easy.)

[rog]

A: No. No! NO! Stop it! Stop it, please! I beg you! This is sin! This is sin! This is sin! It's a sin, it's a sin, it's a sin!
B: Sin? What's all this about sin?
A: That! Using Ludwig van like that! He did no harm to anyone. Beethoven just wrote music!

[cnorman18]

A: No. No! NO! Stop it! Stop it, please! I beg you! This is sin! This is sin! This is sin! It's a sin, it's a sin, it's a sin!
B: Sin? What's all this about sin?
A: That! Using Ludwig van like that! He did no harm to anyone. Beethoven just wrote music!

A Clockwork Orange. Astonishing film, even by today's standards. It's wrong to force another human into a mold that someone else chooses for him, even if the original version is very nearly a monster.

[rog]

Of course you're right :)

[cnorman18]

Okay, here's another, and another easy one: if you're sure, go ahead and post a new quote. I have to go work on my novel for a while.

"If you're going to shoot, shoot. Don't talk."

PS -- anyone have a clue on the one I posted earlier? "Am I in Hell?" "Not yet..."

[rog]

Not got a clue on the new one :dunno:

[cnorman18]

Not got a clue on the new one :dunno:

Hint: Famous Western. Sometimes associated with pasta...

[Goodchild]

The Good, the Bad & the Ugly

"I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit ... it's the only way to be sure"

That should be really easy :D

Yep, and not just a famous western, but possibly the ultimate classic western. Currently the #4 rated movie of all time on IMDB.

And c'mon, mine is soooo easy. Most notable female sci-fi action hero flick, pretty much paved the way for women to be taken seriously as action heroes.

[Laton]

Aliens

[Goodchild]

Yep, that's it. You're up Laton :)

[Laton]

"No ticket!"*


*Bonus point if you get both movies it was in :)

[Barefoot Bree]

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade for one. Don't know if that's either of the ones you're thinking of, though.

[Laton]

Yeah, that's the original.

Dogma was the other use (after Silent Bob throws one of the angels off the train).

Go Bree

[Barefoot Bree]

Finally!

I started to type my line, and had to go check to make sure I hadn't posted it before. After all, I've typed it out twice before already.

"You swim alone, climb trees, rescue servants. Is there anything you don't do?"
"FLY!"

[Full Tilt Boogie]

OK, here's the next one.

"Hey, if I can't kvetch, I can't do my job"

No one managed to get this one?

Nope. THAT one doesn't ring anything.

[Barefoot Bree]

It's a romantic movie, one of about a thousand retellings of this particular VERY well-known story.

I'll put you out of your misery - it's from the film, Munich - the London hotel lobby scene where Avner and Carl meet to discuss having a nightcap, "to numb the brain", in the hotel bar. Carl then falls for the honey-trap and gets killed for his trouble.

[cnorman18]

Thanks. Now for the one about the dude who can't fly...

Anybody ready with "Am I in Hell?" yet?

[cnorman18]

This is getting kind of free-form, so I suggest we just start throwing them in and batting them around. Nobody's keeping score, anyway.

Here are three very short ones, some of my favorites:

"I'm walking here! I'm walking here!"

"You're gonna need a bigger boat."

"No. I'm a postman."

If this was a bad idea, forget 'em.

Rizzo, from Midnight Cowboy

Jaws - Roy Schieder's police chief character

If this was a bad idea, forget 'em.

Don't know this one.

[rog]

"No. I'm a postman."


Erm, is it from the film "the postman"? :D

[cnorman18]

Between FTB and Rog, nailed all three. Well done.

Here's a harder one:

"It takes four seconds to get to that door... I'll give you two!”

[Wizofoz]

No fair Charles,

Yours got identified, you have to cede the floor...

here's mine....

"F*** her! F*** her BRAINS out! Suck he T**s! Squeeze her Buns! You KOW she want's it!!!"

[Goodchild]

Animal House :D

Had to think a moment because I knew I knew the movie but I wanted to say Revenge of the Nerds lol

[Wizofoz]

Point to Goodchild- Your serve...

[Goodchild]

Here's a harder one:

"It takes four seconds to get to that door... I'll give you two!”

And to prevent having to give up my gay creds I'll answer this one as well ... Breakfast at Tiffany's

[Goodchild]

"What did you expect? "Welcome, sonny"? "Make yourself at home"? "Marry my daughter"? You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons."

[Jobar]

Ha! Bet I inspired that one, didn't I?

Blazing Saddles, of course.

[Goodchild]

You got it Jobar :)

I actually thought of going with something edgier from the film, but didn't want to say the N-word, even on a forum in context lol.

[Jobar]

"You realize that suicide's a criminal offense. In less enlightened times, they'd have hung you for it."

[cnorman18]

Here's a harder one:

"It takes four seconds to get to that door... I'll give you two!”

And to prevent having to give up my gay creds I'll answer this one as well ... Breakfast at Tiffany's

Well done! I thought that was a toughie.

I'll wait till I can get another. Sorry to horn in, so to speak.

[Goodchild]

"You realize that suicide's a criminal offense. In less enlightened times, they'd have hung you for it."

I had to Google, so I won't answer. But I'd never heard of that film before and after reading about the actor who spoke that line (and recognizing him from a different film) and how highly he's rated by others that I rate I'm going to see what I can do about watching it.

eta Happiness! It's available streaming from Netflix :)

[Arctish]

nm

[Jobar]

It's a killer comedy, my friend sohy's hubby turned me on to it. :)

[Jobar]

So, no more guesses?

[cnorman18]

So, no more guesses?

Apparently not. Not a clue, here.

[rog]

Me neither, I caved and googled it - I think the original was better than the remake.

[Goodchild]

Me neither, I caved and googled it - I think the original was better than the remake.

Agreed. After googling it my 14-year old son and me watched it on Netflix and, despite the fact that he doesn't care for older movies, we both loved it.

[cnorman18]

So what the hell IS it already?!?!?

[Anne]

took a minute... I thought the Moore one WAS the remake...

[rog]

took a minute... I thought the Moore one WAS the remake...

You might be right, but there was a later one.

:evil: <--- a clue.

[Jobar]

That was the Devil speaking, from the movie Bedazzled.
:)

Since that one was a stumper, I suppose I should go again. Here's an easier one.

He never did... anything that was... illegal...
[pauses]
Unless you count all the times he sold dope disguised as a nun.

[Anne]

man, I love that movie.

[cnorman18]

Aha! Heavy Metal! Fun picture. Sort of a graphic novel/comic book on steroids. Which reminds me of a favorite -- the French SF animation, Fantastic Planet. 1973 or thereabouts. Anybody seen it?

My turn, right? Boy, have I got a good one on deck.

[Wizofoz]

Fantastic Planet. 1973 or thereabouts. Anybody seen it?

I'd completely forgotten about it- yes, WONDERFUL piece.

[cnorman18]

Fantastic Planet. 1973 or thereabouts. Anybody seen it?

I'd completely forgotten about it- yes, WONDERFUL piece.

Someday I'll get it on DVD. Too many on my list ahead of it, though.

Here's a hint: The movie from which the following quote comes is NOT one of them.

Here it is:

"You needn't make it sound as if I enjoy annihilating children. I only do it when it's unavoidable."

[cnorman18]

Okay, 24 hours plus and no takers. I should be ashamed of myself. The line was from Snow White and the Three Stooges.

Okay, next one, and this should be MUCH easier:

"Now you listen to me. I'm an advertising man, not a red herring. I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself slightly killed."

STILL no takers? Okay, here's a hint; the line was spoken by one Archibald Leach.

[Anne]

I've never seen that one. Although Leach is one of my favorite actors ever.

[cnorman18]

I've never seen that one. Although Leach is one of my favorite actors ever.

Oh, I'll bet you have. Here's another hint: Alfred Hitchcock.

[Anne]

Nope, I never saw that one. :)

[cnorman18]

Nope, I never saw that one. :)

Eva Marie Saint? James Mason? Mount Rushmore?

[rog]

One for you cnorman [or anyone really...] "Guns for show, knives for a pro."

[Barefoot Bree]

Cnorman, the movie you're hinting at is North by Northwest.

(I got it from the hints, not the line. Never actually seen it.)

Try this one: "Nobody throws me my gun and says run. Nobody."

[cnorman18]

Correct, finally. Good picture -- the last I ever saw with my parents, at Radio City in NY when I was ten.

No idea on those two.

[Anne]

dammit, Bree, that's on the tip of my tongue... much like the Heavy Metal one was...

Only this one I can almost see...

and running down the list of people I think said it, I'm sure it's a western, and I'm sure Lee Marvin is in it, and I'm sure it's not Cat Ballou...

So Magnificent 7?

[Barefoot Bree]

Excellent deductive skills, Anne! Magnificent Seven it is! And it was Lee Marvin who said it, in fact.

[Full Tilt Boogie]

One for you cnorman [or anyone really...] "Guns for show, knives for a pro."

Lock, Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels - said by the chef character - Dexter Fletcher.

[Anne]

yippie!

Oh, crap...

[Anne]

ok.

This is for ladies only!
So is *this*, ma'am, but every now and then I have to run a little water through it.

[Laton]

And it was Lee Marvin who said it, in fact.

James Coburn ;)

[Anne]

I didn't think it was Lee... but I knew Lee was in it...

Lee was the knife thrower, right?

um, I want to be clear, the quote isn't for ladies only--- for ladies only is the start of the quote...

This is for ladies only!
So is *this*, ma'am, but every now and then I have to run a little water through it.

[Barefoot Bree]

Picky, picky.



(You're right, of course. I stand corrected.)


ETA after looking it up: actually, Lee Marvin wasn't even in it. James Coburn was the knife-thrower, and yes, he said the line. Color me embarrassed.....

[Anne]

you? Hell! I thought Lee Marvin was in it!

What was I thinking of? Hell, I got it right.

I'm guessing the Cat Ballou bit in my brain was because Lee and Coburn both were knife wielders...

No guesses? Hints then...

The line was spoken by a very drunk Alan Swann as he entered the ladies restroom at the TV studio...

[Anne]

Boy, I'm glad I didn't do something obscure... or maybe that would have gotten more hits?

Peter O'Toole played Alan Swann...

[Anne]

oh, ok. Now what? I can't find the rules, but I think I'll tell you what it is and post another one?

W7z-M92N4L8

My Favorite Year. I recommend it highly as a fun romp.

how about:
Stay away from women. That's my motto.
But I can't.
Neither can I. And that's my trouble.

[Anne]

no one wants to play with me. :(

Another line from that movie?

Gee, Doc, all I can see is a frog and a bear in a rainbow-colored Studebaker.

[Barefoot Bree]

Movie lines is a hard game to keep going - either you know it off the top of your head, or you have to Google it. If everybody's seen the same movies and knows all the lines, it goes too quick; if nobody's seen the movie, it dies. Not your fault.

Perhaps we should relax the No Google Rule to... Google OK after 24 hours in order to continue the game. How does that sound?

[cnorman18]

Sounds right to me. And it's not a bear, it's a dog.

[Anne]

He's got the Studebaker because his uncle's hibernating. Dogs don't hibernate. ;)

[Anne]

ok, how about this. I think this was in the trailer...

General Patton has said that wars are fought with weapons but are won by men. Our goal is to create the greatest army in history. But every army begins with one man. He will be the first in a new breed of super-soldier. We are going to win this war because we have the best men. And they, personally, will escort Adolf Hitler to the gates of Hell.

[Anne]

help? What do I do next?

No idea what film this is from :)

Somebody needs to jump in with a new quote, I think.

Try this one:

"The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your whole life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life."

The Last Samurai?

[Barefoot Bree]

That was quick.

Your turn!

(Anne, what was your movie?)

[Anne]

rog got it--- it was from the trailer to Cap'n America.

I figured the TRAILER would be a safe bet.

My women quote was from the original Muppet Movie.

[cnorman18]

That was quick.

Your turn!

(Anne, what was your movie?)

Okay, here it comes:

"Tell me, do you love your country?"

"Well, I just died for it..."

[Goodchild]

I'm starting to think people don't want their quotes guessed, as lots of these are so freaking obscure IMO. Now we're getting quotes from over 70 years ago :D (yeah, I had to google it).

I mean, play it how you want, it's not my place to tell you what you can quote or not ... but if i'm going to get any enjoyment out of this game then it'd be nice if the quotes were from movies that are reasonably well known. Of course, at the same time it's nice to learn about movies we may never have heard of and check them out (like Bedazzled).

Feel free to throw one in then :)

What are you?
I'm Batman.

Fair enough; I just thought it was a good line, and I watched it on DVD the other day with my client. Alfred Hitchcock's Secret Agent, speaker was John Gielgud. Pretty good picture for one of the early talkies.

Hey, nobody got North by Northwest, another Hitchcock, and from only 50 years ago.

Try this one, even older, but I'll bet it's an easy one anyway:

"Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

Now if you don't know THAT one, you're culturally deprived.

[Barefoot Bree]

I know it, but I'm letting Goodchild have first crack.

[Goodchild]

I'm sure it is a good line, and it's probably a good movie. I'm just bitching 'cause ya'll are pulling out movies I've never heard of or watched :D In a way that makes it less fun 'cause it makes me feel pretty freaking stupid, but like I said in another way it's good 'cause I can be exposed to some interesting movies because of it.

Short version - I'm just complaining to be complaining I suppose ;)

"Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

Now if you don't know THAT one, you're culturally deprived.

Had to look it up, never seen the movie. Guess I'm culturally deprived ;) But at least I'd heard of that one.

I mean, I gave you all Aliens ... you give me 1936 movies lol. It's so unfair.

[DanB]

Casablanca. Number 3 on AFI's top 100 (http://www.afi.com/100years/movies10.aspx). Any film fan should see every movie on that list.

Is there a similar organization, referring to AFI, at the international level?

[cnorman18]

Casablanca. Number 3 on AFI's top 100 (http://www.afi.com/100years/movies10.aspx). Any film fan should see every movie on that list.

That is correct, and I think it should have been #1. Fuck Citizen Kane. Casablanca is the best movie ever made, from where I sit. And it was made almost 70 years ago.

Your turn.

[DanB]

"Either you empty your pockets or I empty your pockets. There's no third way."

[DanB]

"You're a man who like to talk and I'm a man who likes a man who likes to talk."

[DanB]

"It's the stuff dreams are made of."

[DanB]

"When a man's partner is killed, he's supposed to do something about it. It doesn't make any difference what you thought of him. He was your partner and you're supposed to do something about it. And it happens we're in the detective business. Well, when one of your organization gets killed, it's-it's bad business to let the killer get away with it, bad all around, bad for every detective everywhere."

[DanB]

"I hope they don't hang you, precious, by that sweet neck. Yes, angel, I'm gonna send you over. The chances are you'll get off with life. That means if you're a good girl, you'll be out in 20 years. I'll be waiting for you. If they hang you, I'll always remember you."

[DanB]

"Well, let's talk about the black bird."

There's a connection between this and the previous film in this thread.

Using the honor system. Answer is below. If, you get it right. Go ahead and take your turn.
The Maltese Falcon.

[cnorman18]

"It's the stuff dreams are made of."

Well, I knew it from this quote, but I thought I'd give someone else a chance. It's The Maltese Falcon, which also starred Humphrey Bogart.

Here's another; I won't be around to confirm the winner, so the honor system will apply again.

"I love you."

"I know."

[Wizofoz]

"I love you."

"I know."

Oh, Paleaseee...

Han and Lea just before he get's Carbon frozen...

SO,

"We caught them, and we shot them under Rule .303"

[DanB]

Well, I knew it from this quote, but I thought I'd give someone else a chance. It's The Maltese Falcon, which also starred Humphrey Bogart.

Heh. I was feeling a little anxious about the quote with which I started. I figured my favorite lines probably weren't the most remembered and it appears to be another film that I mistakenly assume everyone has seen. Man, I love that film.

I kinda remember Wiz's quote, but I can't place it. It makes me think of Zulu, but I don't think that's it.

[Wizofoz]

No, not ZULU, but you're on the right continent.

[Laton]

"We caught them, and we shot them under Rule .303"

Edward Woodward in Breaker Morant (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaker_Morant_(film)#Historical)

[Laton]

"Wait Master, it might be dangerous... you go first."

[Goodchild]

"Wait Master, it might be dangerous... you go first."

Finally one I can get! :D

That's Igor to Doctor Frahnk-en-steen in Young Frankenstein. I was such a huge Gene Wilder fan when I was young, love that movie.

[Goodchild]

Next line, from an 80s movie that's one of my favorites

"It's a shield. I made it. Might keep the fire off of you, might not. You know, you're an idiot. You're going to die tonight. You'll be ripped, limb from limb. This is the last time I'll ever speak to you! "

[Anne]

Dragonslayer.

:)

[Goodchild]

Dragonslayer.

:)

Bingo! Best dragon-related movie ever.

Your go, serve us up a good one :)

[Anne]

ok. Another 80's favorite. :)

You didn't touch anything, did you?
No.
Good. Because all of my filth is arranged in alphabetical order. This, for instance, is under 'H' for "toy."

[DanB]

Val Kilmer in Real Genius, when not making big buckets of popcorn.

[Goodchild]

Damn, wish I'd of checked this sooner because I knew that one as soon as I read it :) Great movie too Anne!

[Anne]

Good. So I guess DanB takes it (although rog should get it if there's an opening--- he did get Cap'n America)

(I thought I was the game killer for a while)

And yeah, great movie.

[DanB]

Good. So I guess DanB takes it (although rog should get it if there's an opening--- he did get Cap'n America)

(I thought I was the game killer for a while)

And yeah, great movie.

Then I graciously defer my honor to rog.

rog, a quote if, you please.

[rog]

Ummm, I'm gonna need you to go ahead come in tomorrow.

[DanB]

An Officer and a Gentleman.

[DanB]

2001: A Space Odyssey.

[Goodchild]

Hehe, another great movie. That was from Office Space :)

[Goodchild]

"Yeah, but that's when I thought I was the crewman that stays on the ship, and something is up there, and it kills me. But now I'm thinking I'm the guy who gets killed by some monster five minutes after we land on the planet. "

[Laton]

Galaxy Quest

[Goodchild]

Yep yep :)

[Laton]

Easy one:

Fuck it, Dude, let's go bowling.

[DanB]

Not just any dude. That would be The Big Lebowski.

[Laton]

Of course.

[DanB]

"Have you ever crossed the road, and looked the wrong way? A car's nearly on you? So what do you do? Something very silly. You freeze. Your life doesn't flash before you, 'cause you're too fuckin' scared to think - you just freeze and pull a stupid face. "

[Laton]

Snatch

[DanB]

A lot of quotable material in that one. I was thinking of going with something Tea Cozy.

Go on Laton, before zee Germans get here.

[Laton]

Don't kill him! If you kill him, he won't learn nothin'!

[DanB]

Argh. Another one that I can recall, but not pin down. I'm thinking 3:10 to Yuma, but doubt it.

[Laton]

Nope :)

A hint: its a Val Kilmer movie

[Barefoot Bree]

Must be Tombstone then?

[Laton]

Not a western (Kilmer didn't say the line either)

[Goodchild]

I'm gonna guess it was Batman Forever then. In fact, I think I remember Jim Carrey's Riddler saying that now, when him and Two-Face were torching Wayne Mansion :)

[Laton]

Thats it :)

[rog]

I throw one it too.


I'm the pie fucker.
Yeah, well. In prison, he'll be the pie.

[Goodchild]

I throw one it too.


I'm the pie fucker.
Yeah, well. In prison, he'll be the pie.


Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back :D Great line.

I'll come up with another one in a few minutes

[Goodchild]

Ok, here's mine.

"Life forms! You tiny little life forms! You precious little life forms! Where are you?"

[rog]

Ok, here's mine.

"Life forms! You tiny little life forms! You precious little life forms! Where are you?"

It's a startrek & it was Data, Generations?

[Goodchild]

Ok, here's mine.

"Life forms! You tiny little life forms! You precious little life forms! Where are you?"

That's it :)

[rog]

I'll throw it open to the next poster.

[DanB]

"I'm really sorry. When I saw him on the computer, it said "The Butcher of Cadíz." I thought it was a profession, not a headline. "

[DanB]

"I mean, you're sending all the right signals - no earrings, heels under two inches, your hair is pulled back, you're wearing reading glasses with no book, drinking a Grey Goose martini, which means you had a hell of a week and a beer just wouldn't do it. And if that wasn't clear enough, there's always the "fuck off" sign that you have stamped on your forehead."

[DanB]

Eva Mendes.

[DanB]

Wil Smith.

[Barefoot Bree]

DanB, you're confusing me. Are those two quotes from the same movie, or did you toss out two different movies? And how do those names fit in? A bit more clarity, please.

[DanB]

Sorry BB. I thought it clear that I was continuing to feed hints about a single movie until it was guessed.

Yes. Both quotes are from the same film.

The two names are actors in that film.

[Barefoot Bree]

Do the names match up with the quotes?

[DanB]

Nope. both quotes are from one of the actors mentioned.

From that same character:

"Okay, no, no, no, no. I want everybody to take a good look at this right now. Because this, this right here, this is exactly why falling in love is so goddamn hard!"

btw, this is probably considered a "chick flick" or romantic comedy.

[DanB]

Same film. A 2005, romantic comedy, starring Wil Smith and Eva Mendes.

Wil Smith's character voice over at the beginning of the film:

"Basic principles: no woman wakes up saying, "God, I hope I don't get swept off my feet today!" Now, she might say, "This is a really bad time for me," or something like, "I just need some space," or my personal favorite, "I'm really into my career right now." You believe that? Neither does she.

You know why? Because she's lying to you, that's why. You understand me? Lying! It's not a bad time for her. She doesn't need any space. And she may be into her career, but what she's really saying is, "Uh, get away from me now," or possibly, "Try harder, stupid." But which one is it? Sixty percent of all human communication is nonverbal, body language; thirty percent is your tone. So that means that ninety percent of what you're saying ain't coming out of your mouth.

Of course she's going to lie to you! She's a nice person. She doesn't want to hurt your feelings. What else she going to say? She doesn't even know you... yet. Luckily, the fact is that just like the rest of us, even a beautiful woman doesn't know what she wants until she sees it, and that's where I come in. My job is to open her eyes.

Basic principles: no matter what, no matter when, no matter who... any man has a chance to sweep any woman off her feet. He just needs the right broom."

Hitch

[DanB]

Whoever wants next, post your quote. I'm done with this one.

[Old Woman in Purple]

"Initiative comes to thems that wait."

[Goodchild]

Googled that one and it's a movie that's on my list to eventually watch, rated highly by pretty much everyone :)

I really need to watch that sometime in the near future ... time to see if Netflix has it lol

eta happy happy joy joy ... it is on Netflix :)

[Old Woman in Purple]

The daughter is watching it for the first time tonight.

[DanB]

Is it Ren & Stimpy Take Manhattan?

[Old Woman in Purple]

Nope.

[Anne]

I didn't care for it, Goodchild. The book was better.

[Arctish]

Hitch.

ETA: Oops, I missed the new quote and was guessing the source of the previous one.

[Old Woman in Purple]

Nope.

Clue: The movie came out in 1971.

[Old Woman in Purple]

"Initiative comes to thems that wait."

Was said by Alex in The Clockwork Orange.

Someone else go.

[Arctish]

"I'm sorry, I-- I wasn't trying to ... well ... I-- I was trying to kill you, I'll admit that, but it wasn't-- I mean, it wasn't anything personal!"

[Goodchild]

Wow, that sounds so awfully familiar and yet I can't place it. Good one!

[Arctish]

It's an old one. Do you want a hint or another quote from the same movie?

[DanB]

Your choice.

[Arctish]

"We are, of course, Norweigans"

[DanB]

How To Train Your Dragon.

[Arctish]

Nope. The movie is from the early 1960s.

[Anne]

I'm going to guess most people haven't seen that one... just because it's one of our favorites...

[Arctish]

Okay, her's the giveaway line:

"Emergency! Everyone to get from street!"

and the movie is

The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming , a classic Norman Jewison comedy starring Carl Reiner and Alan Arkin.

[Anne]

and a favorite movie here.
