Funny, I had just logged on thinking I was just going to jump in a post a new quote... I think I still will. Brian may not be very active recently... no bad. I am definitely guilty of throwing something obscure in, but I have tried to check back often to offer hints... hmmm...

Anyway, if Dylan doesn't mind....

"TV - it changed the way we think forever. First time they stopped the game because they had to cut to a commercial was the end of it."

Barry,

Isn't that from Any Given Sunday?

~Mike

Dammit, would have thought I would have recognized that line, Martin Short is hilarious in that film. I often use his line about reading "almost ALL of them [scripts] nearly ALL the way through". I was sort of blown away right after I moved to L.A. and realized that the Cinerama Dome was the background of the "Pez People" video.

One of my favorite films, and it should be ALMOST mandatory for anyone in the movie biz to watch, especially DP's, Directors, writers etc.

That movie has so many good lines, as UGE mistake a UGE mistake... Or JT Walsh's line: "I haven't seen your film, but let me just say one word.. Brilliance… Briliance…"

Also: "You're director? huh, that's great, Jose, our busboy is a director."

Glad we have the same humor Charles.... PS I send you an email.

Sorry for the delay, off on an on-site shoot today....

Ok, here it comes, from one of my all time favorite movies

"So you're Chekov, huh? Well, this here's McCoy. Find a Spock, we got us an away team"

good luck!
~Mike

Sounds like 'The Boondock Saints'....(?)

I thought Dylan called this thing off, but I suppose as long as we've got players...

Sounds like 'The Boondock Saints'....(?)

Yes, just to speed things up a bit, that is definitely 'Boondock Saints.' Go Go Quote!

Michael,

Nick is right...its Boondock saints!

lets keep it going!
~Mike

Your turn Michael Rowe....

"Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to."

You all know what movie this if from, right?

"Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to."

You all know what movie this if from, right?


other then my grandmother telling me that, my mom would tell me that, and now my wife says it to me...of course they all are big cathy bates fans that line would be from deloris calirborn...

Hmmmm sounds like you know it...

I would propose a rule change that if the person knows 100% that they are right, go ahead and post the next quote without waiting for the poster to respond. I like the polite exhange, but it does slow us down. The poster can respond after the fact - and certainly point out if the person is wrong.

Anyway, good job. (I think)

LOL I too heard that line from just about every female friend & family member who saw that movie.

Dolores Claiborne it is....all yours Robert!

ok i just saw this movie last night and there were many memorable quotes but this one stands out the most...

"...lying .... it is the currency of the world."

I thought Dylan called this thing off, but I suppose as long as we've got players...

I just wanted to pause it for a bit, but it seems interest has sprung to life again, so lets let it ride.

"...lying .... it is the currency of the world."




---------hint below if you don't want it don't read below this line--------





ok the movie has an allstar cast, if you knew that your closer to the answer then you think...

oceans eleven ?

Its from "Closer."

Its from "Closer."

did the hint give it away? good job...

Since a few days have gone by without a new challenge from our last winner, he has forfeited his turn. So I'll offer up an easy, easy, easy one for you...

"Cleaning woman... cleaning woman. Cleaning woman? Cleaning woman?! Cleaning woman! Cleaning woman, cleaning woman, cleaning woman!!"

"Cleaning woman... cleaning woman. Cleaning woman? Cleaning woman?! Cleaning woman! Cleaning woman, cleaning woman, cleaning woman!!

best line in that movie ....
"the folks who brought you the jerk try and make it up to you"
Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, and i loved the Jerk...

Of course the other great lines from Dead Men... Plaid (just to take that movie out of play):

Rigby: All dames are alike... they reach down your throat and they grab your heart... they pull it out and throw it on the floor, step on it with their high heels, and spit on it. They shove it in the oven and cook the shit out of it. Then they slice it into little pieces, slap it on a hunk of toast, and serve it to you and expect you to say, "Thanks, honey, that was delicious."

Rigby: There was one thing I liked about Monica... the words "I can't" weren't in her vocabulary.
Rigby: Monica, I need you to do something for me.
Monica: I can't.
Rigby Reardon: I guess she'd learned them since the last time I saw her.

Juliet: You know how to dial, don't you? You just put your finger in the hole, and make a tiny circle.


And now the ball is in your court, Robert!

"You know how to dial, don't you? You just put your finger in the hole, and make a tiny circle" yes that one kills me...

ok here is an easy one...to keep the game going...

"what %$#@ do you know about surfing? You are from god damn new jersey. "

Apocalypse Now

Ok. Here's mine:

Ian: "I mean if we had all you guys tied up, that probably would have been fine."
David: "It's such a fine line between stupid and..."
Derek: "...and clever."

This is Spinal Tap?

Maybe that was too easy? Your turn.

Another easy one, but in the spirit of the season...

"All they stole was some Halloween masks, knives, and some rope."

Jeez guys, I would have thought people would get this pretty quickly. There's a couple of big clues right in the quote -- HALLOWEEN MASKS and KNIVES.

Um... Halloween? Sorry, not my genre!

You got it. Lucky guess, huh? I guess you're it Chris.

Okay, here's another dead easy one for you...

"Think that bridge will be there... and it'll be there. It's a mother beautiful bridge, and it's gonna be there."

So that's the challenge, but, if you got that one right away, consider this quote:

"Do me a favor, will you? Next time you have one of these things, keep it an all-British operation."

Who do these two movies have in common? I'm not referring to the immediately obvious fact that the same famous actor plays leading roles in both these movies... there is another person, behind the scenes, that has these two movies in common. Who is he?

that's from bridge over the river Kawi (sp?)

~Mike

Bzzt. No! Sorry!

;-)

Dude . . .

Kelly's Heroes.

Where Eagles Dare.

Eastwood.

But also Brian Hutton, director.

Ya da man, Jubal!

Hutton also directed High Road to China.

You're up,

OK . . .

Staying within the theme if not the genre (sorta) . . .

"Eagle Control to Alert One, you are clear to arm, but don't fire. Throw them off, play with them, but do not fire. "

"The Final Countdown."

And not that crappy song from the eighties.

Correct. A favorite.

"I understand you're a neurosurgeon."

"No, I'm a barber, but a lot of people make that mistake."



One of my all-time favorites.

Jason - I like your nurse uniform
Luke - they're O.R. scrubs
Jason - Oh, R they?

Rushmore...

here is another classic...

- i was thinking of writing my story so i bought this one on how to do it

- why do you need 25 copies of it?

- in case i want to read it more than once...

"My Blue Heaven," I believe.

Steve Martin his hilarious in that movie.

right...keep em coming Nick

while we wait for Nick, let me throw this one out there its in keeping with the theme...

this actors greatest role ever...

"you wear too much eye makeup
-short pause-
my sister wears too much
-short pause-
people think she's a whore"

That was one of the more 'classic' moments in film history - from right out of no where...Charlie Sheen towards the end of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

I think of that scene as sort of a gem because Sheen looked and behaved so hilarliously in it...and I was wondering how it came to be. As it just sort of came from out of the blue and included Sheen in what was a comparitively tiny role considering his growing popularity through the mid-80's. I know that when John Hughes made "Planes, Trains and Automobiles", I believe that there was some degree of overlapping production scheduling going on with "She's Having a Baby" and so it was convenient and fun to include a small cameo for Kevin Bacon in PT & A by posing him as the man across the street racing Steve Martin for the cab...but I don't know of any such situation regarding Hughes' productions and Sheen's work that year (Platoon) that would serve to cross-pollinate him into FBDO. Maybe he just wasn't 'big enough' till the following year.
-Jon

right Jon on all accounts...lay some lines on us

I would, but technically Nick holds the conch, so I'll wait a day or so to give him a chance, otherwise I'll wait in the wings and think up a doozy.
-Jon

I think a turn is forfeited if it hasn't been taken within 24 hours.

"I'm very angry....Ralph. You know, you can ball my wife if she wants you to. You can lounge around here on her...sofa, in her ex-husband's dead-tech, post-modernistic bullshit house if you want to....But you do NOT get to watch MY F***ing TELEVISION!"

This one is not too hard at all, but it is a fun one. Game on.
