Dug out ye olde movie quote meme again. Let's get this one circulating around the flists one more time.

Come on, it's been more than a year...that's long enough, isn't it?

1. Pick 15 of your favourite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them 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!



1. "Never...ever...fuck with an antiques dealer!!"
Dracula 2000, more or less guessed by [info]nobleplatypus

2. Character 1: "Just what I've always wanted."
Character 2: "A restaurant?"
Character 1: "No, a friend with a restaurant."
hint: This movie is based on a song.

3. Character 1: "If you didn't kill him, then who did, sir?"
Character 2: "Who can say? Best thing for him, really. His therapy was going nowhere."
hint: The main character in this film is a woman.

4. "I am the Amazing Bobinsky! But you--call me Mr. B., because amazing, I already know that I am."
Coraline, guessed by [info]nobleplatypus

5. [To a police officer] "Don't get officious. You're not yourself when you're officious. That is the curse of a government job."
hint: This movie is about a very unusual romance.

6. "If you have the tooth of a whale, you must have the jaw of a whale to wield it."
Whale Rider, guessed by [info]nobleplatypus

7. "Back home we got a taxidermy man. He gonna have a heart attack when he see what I brung him."
hint: This movie has several sequels.

8. "Sorry we hurt your field, mister."
hint: Can't buy me love.

9. "The #1 movie in America was called 'Ass.' And that's what it was...for ninety minutes. It won four Oscars that year, including best screenplay."
Idiocracy, guessed by [info]nobleplatypus

10. "I like to watch women doing little domestic chores."
hint: The original version (which this quote is from) is a horror movie, but the remake is a comedy.

11. "For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life that you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
hint: This movie is long like a very long thing.

12. "I cannot be contained in any container!"
hint: This movie came out in 2008.
hint 2: It was nominated for an Oscar.

Bolt, guessed by [info]nobleplatypus

13. "Listen. I don't like to preach, but here's some advice. You'll meet a lot of jerks in life. If they hurt you, remember it's because they're stupid. Don't react to their cruelty. There's nothing worse than bitterness and revenge. Keep your dignity and be true to yourself."
hint: An animated film for adults.

14. "Take these three items: some WD-40, a vice grip, and a roll of duct tape. Any man worth his salt can fix almost any problem with this stuff alone."
hint: Get off my lawn!

15. "That's the great thing about the outdoors: it's one giant toilet."
hint: This movie begins with a funeral.

I'll give everyone a day or two to guess before I start adding hints.

Uhhhh... is #1 that Dracula movie with ELI STONE in it?

Grah, I dunno about 12. Maybe it's a movie I saw the trailer for, but didn't actually see. :P I hardly ever go to the movies anymore.

Hahahaaaa, way to know it by name. *credits your guess anyway* ELI STONE and also THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. And neon Jesus.

I'll probably post hints to all of these tonight, and stick a second hint on #12 then.
