Oh man I know this one. But I'll wait to see if someone else gets it. I love this movie so much I have three copies of the DVD. I keep seeing it in the store and forget I already have it.

:P Garrett

Caddyshack.

I haven't seen that movie in ten years but the lines are so funny and delivered so perfectly you can't forget them.

You got it.

Yeah, been a while since I've seen it too be some lines are ingrained in my mind. Go ahead, your turn.

Okay, this one should be another dunk.

Character 1: "Inconceivable!"

Character 2: "You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

'The Princess Bride'

Correcto!

All yours, Bill.

"In - con - ceivable!" I love that line.
Try this:

The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

A Clockwork Orange

You got it Jonathan.
Wow, that only took 2 minutes.....

Here's the next one:

"Do you know what time it is?"

"12:00?"

"S'pose ya gotta get up early, huh?"

"No, not particularly. How come?"

"It's just after I see a good movie, I like to go get a piece of pie and talk about it. Sort of a little tradition I have. Do you like to get pie after you see a good movie?"

"Yeah, I love to get pie after a movie."

"Would you like to go get some pie with me?" (giggles)

"I'd love some pie."

Tarantino's True Romance?

Tarantino's True Romance?

Indeed. A movie chock full of quotable lines.

You're up, sir.

-Jon

Here's a fun movie.

Character 1: How much for the little girl? How much for the women?
Character 2: What?
Character 1: Your women. I want to buy your women. The little girl, your daughters... sell them to me. Sell me your children.

I'm gonna guess "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome" (but its only wild guess.)

Nope not Mad Max.

-Garrett

Blues Brothers
The scene in the swank restaurant, tossing shrimp into each others mouths and swilling expensive champagne.

You got it Bill.

"Boys, you got to learn not to talk to nuns that way."

The band, which included Belushi and Aykroyd actually got a Grammy nomination for Best New Band I believe in 1978.

Your turn Bill.

-Garrett

"9 million terrorists in the world and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister."

"9 million terrorists in the world and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister."Die Hard 1?

You got it Paul.

After pulling shards of glass from his feet in a bathroom. The pursuing terrorists had noted that he was barefoot and blasted all the interior windows.

Character 1: Good God!
Character 2: Yes, that's what the Hebrews thought.

AHHH...

Raiders Of The Lost Ark

Only one in that series worth watching more than once IMHO.

-Garrett

You got it (and fast, too!).

Your turn.

Along the same lines...

"Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges."

Let's see who gets this one first.

-Garrett

Wait, this is too easy, or it's a miscue.
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre had that line when the banditos came to Bogart's camp to rob them.
Unless the exact structure of the dialogue as you've presented was used for a takeoff or comedy in a different film.

Bill's overthinking.... :)

or is he?

Actually those exact lines were from Treasure of the Sierra Madre. So you got it. But the last line,

"We don't need no stinking badges" was used in a comedy. Extra credit if you can name the comedy.

Your turn to come up with one.

-Garrett

"We don't need no stinking badges" was used in a comedy.
Something with Belushi in it?

Anyways, I just watched an old movie on NetFlix:


"Hang on, we’re coming to a bend.”
“You’re going too fast.”
“No I’m not, hang on.”
‘What’s this heap of old iron doing here?
“Old Iron?”
“I’ll give you ten buck for it.”

“Don’t be daft…this was once a great car.”

“Don’t be daft…this was once a great car.”I haven't seen the movie, but I'm going to guess just from the content: It's not the Great Race (which I have seen), so it must be Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? (based on "daft," the lack of obscenity and that it references a car).

Very impressive guess.
These are the opening lines for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. You're up Paul.
Wait, you haven't seen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? It's a classic.

Hey Paul,

Good pull on Blazing Saddles and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. But how could you have never seen it. They use to show it every Thanksgiving day.

-Garrett

Well.....now you guys have gone and done it.


Guess what I now have stuck in my head.

It goes a little something like this:

Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Oh you pretty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang we love you,
And in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang what we'll do.
Near far in our motor car oh what a happy time we'll spend.
Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,
Our fine four-fendered friend(.......etc.)

I'm lucky I'm alone in my office.

Me thinks that Jonathan has been sampling too much of that good Healdsburg wine.

Holy Cow that made me laugh, what a crazy song. Nominated for an Oscar and all but still what a bonkers tune. If you get caught singing it in public they'll put you in the funny farm. I had the lyrics "Our fine four fendered friend" burned into my subconsious at a young age, and watching that movie brought it back.

Paul Tauger, you correctly guessed the movie quote back on August 18, it's your turn. -BT

I never watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for the same reason I've never seen Sound of Music . . . even I have my limits. ;)

Next:

- The mirror... it's broken.
- Yes, I know. I like it that way. Makes me look the way I feel.

Sounds like the laundry needs to limit the starch...harhar...gee I hope it's okay to poke fun...
I have no idea on the movie quote, but what a great line.

That sounds like a Bukowski line. Is that from Barfly?

- The mirror... it's broken.
- Yes, I know. I like it that way. Makes me look the way I feel.

I believe this is Shirley MacLaine from The Apartment.

-GarrettThe first line was Jack Lemon, the second Shirley MacLaine.

Excellent! You're up.

I have no idea on the movie quote, but what a great line.Definitely okay to poke fun. One of my passions is musical theater, and I can't tell you how much I hate, loath and despise Sound of Music. As for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, it came out after my childhood, I have no children of my own and, though I've actually enjoyed some of the other Disney movie musicals like Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast (though NEVER the stage versions), this is one that I won't see unless bound, hit over the head and dragged in.

I grew up with 7 sisters in my house, and it seems they were running non-stop loops of The Sound of Music and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers with occasional side trips into West Side Story, and I can state that despite all that potential for exposure, I still have never seen any of these 3 films.

But Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was very different, and I suspect I was quite drawn to it as a kid simply because it was centered around a very cool 'gadgety' car that hosted a range of cool hidden features, including the ability to fly with crazy pop-out wings. (To this day, I am still a gadget nut.)

CCBB is, however not a Disney movie. Some aspects of it may have been "Disney-esque" - such as Dick Van Dyke in the lead role (who had done a number of Disney films to date, probably most notably, "Mary Poppins"), the song writers basically made their name up to that point writing songs almost exclusively for Disney productions, and even the Baron's castle had a "Disney-esque" feel to it.

CCBB is a slightly more complex, and even more convoluted production than a lot of Disney films, and is the result of an Ian Fleming premise, presented through a Roald Dahl story in an Albert R. Broccoli production using the over-the-top character antics of Dick Van Dyke with a little bit of Benny Hill (in a supporting role) thrown in. Knowing that it is not a Disney film, I think it is difficult to get away from the feeling while watching it that they were definitely trying to mimic the Disney formula.

After having seen it again as an adult, I was able to watch it with a different critical perspective and wonder just for what type of audience the film was intended.

Some bits might be too frightening for young children.
Some bits are too silly for older children.
Most of the songs (or earworms) are suited for easy memorization by young children, but are potentially way too sappy for older children and adults.

While it seems that the film itself is intended as a musical fantasy adventure for the whole family, at almost 2 and a half hours it begins to feel just too convoluted and bogged down so that by the end of the film, you've nearly forgotten most of what happened at the beginning.

If I felt that I could tolerate the earworms running around in my head for a week, I might consider renting the film for my 6 year old daughter to watch. She'd probably enjoy it - she keeps up with long films quite easily. But I think I'd really prefer just owning the car.

-Jon

I have to fess up and admit that I have not seen CCBB in it's entirety since the year it came out, when I was 11. Since it was my turn for quote I pulled up the movie on Netflix and watched about 3/4 of an hour, which is all I could manage. Turns out the very beginning of the movie is quite good cinema when the car is winning all the races throughout Europe and then crashes to avoid some kids crossing the race track. The first spoken lines in the movie obviously were a perfect setup for the film and gave enough clues for a savvy critic to guess the source, even without viewing.
I'm betting this film gave rise to 'My Mother the Car', and 'Herbie the Love Bug' and even Stephen King's 'Christine', and perhaps others. -BT

Man, was I off. Shirley Maclaine instead of Bukowski? Ouch.

I grew up with 7 sisters in my house, and it seems they were running non-stop loops of The Sound of Music and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers with occasional side trips into West Side Story, and I can state that despite all that potential for exposure, I still have never seen any of these 3 films.My personal opinion, only, but I don't think there are many musicals that work as movies. West Side Story is one of the two most important and artistically excellent musicals written for the American stage (Sweeney Todd is the other), but doesn't play well on film at all (the same is true of Sweeney Todd). Oddly enough, animated film seems to do better with musicals, perhaps because there is, by definition, a highly-stylized artistic convention that the audience willingly accepts from the very beginning.

However, we digress. ;)

OK. Here's one line from many of this movie that really sticks out in my memory.


"Let me tell you something. I owe you nothing! If you carried that bag a million miles, you did what you're supposed to do! Because you brought me into this world. And from that day you owed me everything you could ever do for me like I will owe my son if I ever have another."

The sad thing is that this is a quote that I have in the back of my mind somewhere because it is a movie I am sure I have seen. But I cannot place it.
