Is that a movie quote? If so, I'm guessing it's from the LOTR trilogy.

well gandalf said it in fotr. so i suppose its a movie quote. lol

Next quote?

Sorry, guys!

Here's a quote that'll be pretty hard to get, so I'll give a hint right up front - it's from a Cisco Kid movie from the '50's.

Character 1: "Talk Engish; we can't understand you!"
Character 2: "How I can talk English when you CHOKE it out o' me?"

Got nothing....

Hmmmm.... that I see. Well, I'll just say: it is The Girl from San Lorenzo - a Cisco Kid movie made in 1950. Someone else just go ahead.

"Ed, visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?"

"Ed, visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?"I don't know this one . . . but Ed Wood. ;)

I don't know this one . . . but Ed Wood. ;)

What gave it away!?! ;)


"Number one: I want the movie to end with a biiig explosion!...number two, I got a son. He's a little slow, but a good boy and something tells me he would make one helluva leading man."

Lots of great lines in it.

All yours:

Okay, a little obscure but probably easy:

1 - Remember, men, no matter what they do, don't talk.

2 - What if they torture us?

1 - Just don't talk!

2 - Can we scream a little?

I know I've seen this one. Is it a movie with Bill Murray?

I know I've seen this one. Is it a movie with Bill Murray?You're on the right track, but, no. Hint: Bill Murray was a little boy when this film was made (that's when I saw it).

It sounds like something like "Road to Morocco" or something. Is that in the right ballpark?

Bill Murray isn't that old. ;)

Try something in between your guess and Matt's.

B
Try something in between your guess and Matt's.

Okay, not that I remember a scene in which your quote would be an exact fit, but I'm gonna guess "No Time for Sergeants".

-Jon

You're getting close. Time for a clue:

It was a Peter Sellers film.

The Mouse that Roared.

Here's one for you guys...

"I am the Nightrider. I'm a fuel injected suicide machine. I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller!"

This is stagnating, but I didn't comment on it because I can't quite place it. The image that keeps coming to mind is from "The Road Warrior" but the quote I keep thinking of is "The Ayatollah of Rock and Rolla", but I can't remember more of the specific quote and otherwise cannot accurately guess the source of the current quote.

it's not the Road Warrior...but you're REALLY close.

Ah so, it is from "Mad Max," which came several years before "Road Warrior." I much prefer the original version to the one dubbed over with U.S. voices (sheesh). Can't believe this one sat unanswered for two weeks... stand by by for your next quote!

ding-ding-ding....we have a winner. Mad Max it is.

I prefer the original to the dubbed one also. Mad Max would have been my next guess, although it would have only been a guess. It has been so long since I've seen this film that I couldn't really place the quote.

Better late than never -- here goes:

"We can die here... or we can die in that thing. What's the matter? Haven't you any curiosity
left? Wouldn't you like to know how it feels to fly a... toy airplane?" (maniacal laughter ensues)

If you know this, also name the speaking actor, and name the actor being spoken to.

This qoute has been bothering me along time. At first I thought it was from Toy Story. But now I'm half-thinking it might actually be from Mad Max or the Road Warrior. I keep thinking of that skinny guy with the bad teeth, pet snake, and whacked out grin who flies the ultralight. Am I even close?

I saw this post a couple of weeks ago and didn't have a clue - but then the forum alert brought me back to the thread to have another go. From what I know of Chris, it is likely from some great classic older film that has since fallen from most folks' radar - and I couldn't even begin to guess - so instead, I'm just going to guess "The Mummy" with whatshisface. In the scene where they're trying to get that guy to fly them somewhere.....or was the "The Mummy Returns" or whatever that was called.

-Jon

Sorry, not The Mummy or Mad Max... it is indeed a great classic older film, with major stars in the cast and a couple of Oscar nominations. Before it became a movie, it was a best-selling novel by a prolific English writer (the film is American though). There's a major clue in the quote, but I'll offer another line or two later tonight if nobody gets it.

Also of note, production of this film was marred by a particularly unfortunate tragedy on the last shooting day, resulting in a dedication during the end credits. What happened, and to whom?

The Original Flight of the Pheonix.

A pilot died trying to simulate the take off at the end.

I do not know more than that off the top of my head.

IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059183/trivia) offers more though of course.

2 points for renting the older version of a movie on netflix thinking its the newer one only to find that you like the older one.

You're the winner, Josh -- but you didn't take me up on the follow-up challenge in my original post: "also name the speaking actor, and name the actor being spoken to," and that would have been Richard Attenborough, to Jimmy Stewart.

And trust me, the 1965 original (directed by Robert Aldrich) is far, far superior to the recent remake.

The stunt pilot was Paul Mantz, a legendary Hollywood aviator. Here's a little more about the accident that took his life: http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/Mantz-P1.htm -- I recall reading his biography as a teenager... he was quite a guy.

Your turn, Josh!

This certainly does not qualify as a classic...

"Its a bread maker... it has 3 speeds!"

Will Ferrell in Old School
And I completely consider that a classic.


"I want you to remember this face here, okay? This is the guy behind the guy behind the guy."

Swingers--and I consider that a classic too!



"Do you ever get the feeling that there's something going on that we don't know about?"

Uh oh, looks like I brought this sucker to a screaming halt.

Uh--here's another quote from the same movie.

"You going to eat that sandwich?"

Charles, I think I've seen this in the last few years. For awhile I was thinking it was your Balls of Fury but netflix proved me wrong. Can you give us a hint? Is it under or over five years old?

Diner (1982)

Is that 'The Dream Team?'

You got it- guess I threw a meatball. All yours.

Theres not been one in a while so here's one for you.....

Piece of cake. The line was spoken by Natalie Portman's character in "The Professional" (as titled in the US - known by other titles in other parts of the world.)

-Jon

Got that one sitting on my DVR somewhere -- thanks for reminding me about it!

The ball's in your court, Jonathan...

lol didn't think it would last long, it was called "Leon" over here in the UK

Andy.

Here is the next one:

"It's alright, he's just killing my alligator bags and shooting holes in my suit. Man, that's just mean. That's just MEAN, man!"


-Jon

Great Film......it was Payback .

and another one,

"It must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays"

Andy.

That would be Dent, Arthur Dent (as in, the Late Dent, Arthur Dent) in The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. A truly terrible movie, but a truly inspired radio series and book series.

Well... It's been a month... Lets try this one...

"There is an old saying...
Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present..."

Recent Film too.

A shot in the dark: The Bucket List?

Try Again Grasshoppers... *hint*

How about this for a clue....

"You will never be the dragon warrior, until you lose 500 pounds and brush your teeth!"

would that be Kung Fu Panda? ( grasshopper, 500 lbs (panda))

You're up!

Here it is:

"It's a hell of a thing, killin' a man. Take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have."
