1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it’s guessed.
5. NO GOOGLING / using IMDb search functions. Totally cheating, you dirty cheaters.
Because this has an open invitation to the Tam, the movies will of necessity be a bit more obscure. Also, you must give the character who said it. *insert maniacal laughter,…here*
1. The fuck it isn’t! I know Anubis when I see Him!
2. Excuse me for not knowing about El Salvador, like I’m ever going to Spain anyway.
3. We always knew you were a whoopsie…
fax_celestis Stardust
4. I knew it. I’m surrounded by assholes!
shaolin_geek Spaceballs
5. These ain’t no pork chops! These are U.S. PRIME!
6. I’m a goddamn marvel of modern science.
jagwire One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
7. I want to avoid being cheesy, here. I want to avoid any cheese.
8. The power of television, of public exposure – it scares me. I swear, I could get the mayor’s own children to throw rocks at him!
9. Don’t you try to cast one of your voodoo spells on me, native woman.
kid_lit_fan Hairspray
10. You make it a point of never attacking a weaker party than yourselves, and when you attack a stronger one you invariably get thrashed!
arthurthedented The Pirates of Penzance
11. Hookers, man! Where the hookers?
12. Thanks for calling. I was beginning to wonder what a girl had to do to get arrested.
friskykitten64 Dick Tracy
13. In fact, I think most Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.
kid_lit_fan So, I Married an Axe Murderer
14. If it wasn’t for us, you’d all be speaking *German!* Singing “Deutschland, Deutschland über alles…”
15. That one. The sultry bitch with the fire in her eyes. Bring her to me. Take her clothes off and bring her to me.
shaolin_geek and woadwolf MASH
2. Legally Blonde?
3. Stardust!
14. Eddie Izzard’s “Circle”?
Gratz on #3!
Hoorays.
I confess these didn’t ring a bell (I’m not quite on my game today), but # 13 cracked me up.
“‘Ey yoo! I bet ye five quid you won’t eat this.”
“Jobbers cognots, ye mucker! Yer on.”
ain’t it the truth?
Didja ever hear the one about the Scottish farmer and the British farmer living next door to each other?
#4: Spaceballs, Dark Helmet
#15: Animal House, Bluto
Right-o on #4 😀
Okay, I’m back. I’ve got it. That other one was from MASH. I think it was Trapper John…
Yup! Of *course* its MASH! And, of course YOU spotted it *grins*
Yeah. I got temporarily confused. It reminded me a lot of Animal House which has been on a lot lately.
9. Hairspray Ooh, papa-toonie, we got a loonie!
13. So I Married an Ax-Murderer
Oh, 9. was Mrs. Pingleton and 13. was…whatever Mike Myers’ characters name was (the young man, not the character’s dad.)
Right with Eversharp!
I’ll take “Pirates of Penzance” for #10..
and I’m dying to find out what #15 is from…
Re: I’ll take “Pirates of Penzance” for #10..
You are the very model of a modern quiz winner!
15. Mash, the movie. Elliot Gould’s character
#8 — nope. But that’s a great movie
#8, UHF, the bad guy owner of the competeing network
I’m a goddamn marvel of modern science.
One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest?
Indeed!
I think #12 is from Dick Tracy? It’s Madonna as Breathless Mahoney, right?
Well done!
Yippee!! It’s the only one I knew!!
These were a little more on the obscure side.
Plus? Love the icon. Dancing underwear guy was one of my favorite gimmicks. (he’s also kinda hot). 😀
#1… one of the Mummy movies?
Nope. But aren’t those *fun* movies? Plus, you know, Brendan Frasier running around in poet shirts and leather arm bracers.
I had a friend who included them in her favourite movies. I’m not even sure why.
The other thing I thought of was the Scorpion King, but I pretty much count that as a Mummy movie. It’s just the only movies I could think of offhand with Egyptian mythology.
I am also thinking about #11—Neil Patrick Harris in Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle?
Nope. 🙂
Easy…
#1, which is really obscure and I have to claim best friend proximity, sorry guys – The Bloodsucking Pharoahs of Pittsburgh. I recommend seeing this exactly once for some excellent quotes, and that’s it.
#2 – the original Buffy movie with Kristy Swanson, spoken by Buffy herself
#14 – A Fish Called Wanda, for a well-deserved Academy Award
#8 – Fuck, I should know this one. It’s not Network, nor do I think it’s Wag the Dog. Fuck.
Gravy!
The others you guessed are already on the next entry — “What’s left”.
See if you can get the rest. I apparently have stumped the folken.
