All yours, Jon!

OK, here goes. Here's one from the late 90s. It'll be interesting to see if anyone can guess this one without cheating, or if they'll even admit to knowing the answer if they do.

Character 1: "It must be really hard for you [redacted], you know, try and decide whether to wear the little Gucci dress, the little Gucci dress, OR the little Gucci dress.

Character 2: "Exactly."

Character 3: "I know! Why don't you wear the little Gucci dress?"

Character 2: "That's a good idea. Thanks,[redacted].

No guesses so far? I thought not. The quote as posted was taken verbatim from having watched the scene on the DVD as I typed it. I have the DVD. (Don't ask.)

But it doesn't fare quite the same if compared to the same quote as noted in a number of online quote resources where these lines contain a number of inaccuracies such as wrong words. That makes it more difficult to look this one up online to come up with the answer.

If you guess it correctly, however, then it demonstrates a familiarity with this movie. So, again, I am not surprised at having no guesses posed thus far.

If no one guesses by tomorrow, perhaps I'll post a clue in the morning...and perhaps thereafter just move on to another movie.

Okay, here goes another scene from the same movie:

character 1: "Check."

character 2: "What d'ya mean 'Check'?"

character 1: "I mean Check. My bishop's got your king."

character 2: "Where?"

character 1: "There. You either got to move in front, or move it out the way."

character 2: "Alright, then I'll move that fairground horse to there. Sort that out."

character 1: "You can't do that!"

character 2: "Says who?"

character 1: "Says Mister Chess. It's been in the rules for thousands of years!"

character 2: "Well I'm gonna break the rules and move this little fairground horse free amongst all these little square fields like that...there!"

character 1: "I'm gonna slap you in a minute."

Andy.

Yes...

lol (it was kind of mean of me to choose this one.)

Andy Graham · October 13th, 2009, 02:32 AM

its suddenly slipped my mind!.....right ok its spiceworld

moving swiftly on

character 1: What's this?
character 2: I burned myself.
character 1: You burned yourself? Why?
character 2: Practicing for hell.
character 1: Why do you think you're going to hell?
character 2: Because of what I did. Because of what I'm gonna do.
character 1: What are you going to do?
character 2: [mimes a gun to his head]
character 1: You're going to try to kill yourself? And how serious should I take this threat?

Andy Graham · October 14th, 2009, 08:20 AM

Ok here's another one from this movie.

"You know, the day I did it, I took two razorblades to the bathtub. You know why? Because I knew that once I started to bleed, I'd get weak. And I didn't wanna drop one blade and leave myself half done. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine hating your life so much that you'd wanna bring a backup razor?"

It sounds like a depressing movie i know but it is actually a very enjoyable thought provoking film, shot in 05 i think it fell by the wayside which is a shame.

Any takers?

Jonathan Jones · October 14th, 2009, 09:43 AM

I am pretty sure I've seen it but I can't exactly place it. So I'm going to pose my best guess (ie: the first one that popped into my head).

Is it "Constantine"?

-Jon

Andy Graham · October 14th, 2009, 11:14 AM

its a good guess but its not the one, i dont think it was as high profile as that.

Andy.

Sean Skube · October 14th, 2009, 11:16 AM

Is it "Wristcutters: A Love Story"? If so, that is a really bizarre coincidence, cause that is the movie I just put in my queue.

Andy Graham · October 14th, 2009, 01:07 PM

Afraid not Sean

Id never heard of wristcutters , i just watched the trailer on imdb and it looks pretty damn good, think i'll add that one to the queue myself.

Andy.

Andy Graham · October 15th, 2009, 08:29 AM

Its been a couple of days so i'll just tell ya and let someone else in.

It was "Stay" starring Ewan McGregor ,Ryan Gosling and Naomi watts.

you should give it a watch. Next quotes up for whoever wants it.

Andy.

For Chris McMahon, you're welcome to submit another quote, but I thought it was pretty clear around here that we won't except profanity on the forum. Thanks in advance for respecting this policy, and please try again with something else (something cleaner). Best regards,
