A Movie Meme! (Also: I lose at flist!)
First off, an extremely happy belated birthday to
wheresmycow and
bellabelball! I can't believe I missed them both - hope you guys had awesome days and will celebrate today as well. :D
This one's snagged from
rachelbeann, because it is made of awesome. I'm going to do it first with movies, then with TV shows, because I'm just ornery that way (and because my taste in movies doesn't seem to overlap much with my taste in TV shows - why is that?). Also, I love quoting things at you. :D
1. Pick15 10 of your favourite movies and 10 of your favourite TV shows.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions. Totally cheating, you dirty cheaters.
(Some of these are such total classics that I had a hard time not going with giveaway lines.)
:
#1.
A: What's the last thing that you do remember?
B: My wife...
A: That's sweet.
B: ...dying.
(Memento -
rosa_acicularis got it!)
#2.
A: I'd like to have your advice on how to live comfortably without working hard.
#3.
A: They treat me like a criminal. I'll end up a criminal.
B: You are a criminal.
A: Why you gotta go and do that? I'm trying to make a point.
(The Usual Suspects -
rapunzelita got it!)
#4.
A: What country you from?
B: What?
A: What ain't no country I ever heard of! They speak English in What?
B: What?
(Pulp Fiction -
stunt_muppet got it!)
#5.
A: September 28th, 1997. It is exactly 11am. At the funfair, near the ghost train, the marshmallow twister is twisting. Meanwhile, on a bench in Villette Square, Félix Lerbier learns there are more links in his brain than atoms in the universe. Meanwhile, at the Sacré Coeur, the nuns are practising their backhand. The temperature is 24°C, humidity 70%, atmospheric pressure 990 millibars.
(Amelie -
kindkit got it!)
#6.
A: You give him credit for too much cleverness. My impression was that he's just another blundering American.
B: We musn't underestimate American blundering. I was with them when they blundered into Berlin in 1918.
(Casablanca -
biichan got it!)
#7.
A: Please! This is supposed to be a happy occasion. Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who.
(Monty Python and the Holy Grail -

(Singin' in the Rain -

#9.

B: To see with eyes unclouded by hate.
(Mononoke-hime -

(The Sixth Sense -

A: ...fishing tackle?
(The West Wing -

B: It shoots bullets. Really fast.
(The Lost Room -

#3.
A: Would you mind not standing on my chest? My hat's on fire.
(Doctor Who -
stunt_muppet got it!)
#4.
A: A life, [B], you know what that is? It's the shit that happens while you're waiting for moments that never come.
#5.
A: Don't you watch any horror movies? My soul is doomed to walk the earth until justice has been served...
B: Really?
A: Yeah. That, and as kind of a side project, I dispense fashion advice.
(Veronica Mars -
wondygal got it!)
#6.
A: I'm not up on that new stuff.
B: You're not up on it? Or you're not into it?
A: I might be into it, if I was up on it. But I'm not up on it, so I'm not into it. What I'm into, I'm up on.
C: I'm mostly into what I'm up on, but even though I'm not up on the new stuff, I'm sort of into it.
A: I'm down with that.
B: Prepositions are fun, aren't they?
A: What's a preposition?
#7.
A: Look, do you mind? It's like watching a game of perpendicular tennis.
#8.
A: So [B], where's your little partner?
B: She couldn't come. She was afraid of her love for you.
(The X-Files -

#9.
A: Jelly donuts?
B: [A], that goes without saying.
(Twin Peaks -

#10.
A: I think your argument is specious.
B: I think your tie is ugly.
