I want to play too! Movie Quote Game
This quiz is courtesy of the half-dozen people in my neighborhood who have already done it. :)
Pick 30 of your favorite movies. Find a quote from each movie. Post them here for everyone to guess. I'll try and cross them off and give credit where credit is due as people guess correctly!
Note: These are the first 30 movies I could think of that I love. Sorry if there are some repeats (movies, at least -- I don't think I've repeated quotes) from others who have beat me to this fun little game! I'm sure I'll be kicking myself later when I think of 30 other movies I love more than these. But it's been a long day. My brain is mush.
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Pride and Prejudice. I am determined that nothing but the deepest love could ever induce me into matrimony.
- Ever since I can remember, I've wanted to be clever. Some people are born clever, same way some people are born beautiful. I'm not one of those people.
- DONE! Jen - 13 Going On 30. You are rude, and mean, and sloppy, and frizzy - and I don't like you at all.
- DONE! Jen - 10 Things I Hate About You. What's normal? Those damn Dawson's River kids, sleeping in each other's beds and whatnot?
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Finding Nemo. I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food.
- DONE! Nacwolin - My Big Fat Greek Wedding. I'm a snow beast!
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Gone with the Wind. No, I don't think I will kiss you, although you need kissing, badly. That's what's wrong with you. You should be kissed and often, and by someone who knows how.
- DONE! Emily - Ocean's 11. It will be nice working with proper villains again!
- DONE! Steve, logged in as Java Janie - Elf. I passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly twirly gum drops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel.
- DONE! Jamie - Juno. You seem to be getting pregnanter these days.
- DONE! Matthew - Talledega Nights. Get back, I'll windmill ya.
- DONE! Steve, logged in as Java Janie - Good Will Hunting. Every day I come by your house and I pick you up. And we go out. We have a few drinks, and a few laughs, and it's great. But you know what the best part of my day is? For about ten seconds, from when I pull up to the curb and when I get to your door, 'cause I think, maybe I'll get up there and I'll knock on the door and you won't be there. No goodbye. No see you later. No nothing. You just left. I don't know much, but I know that.
- DONE! Kelly - Casablanca. Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time.
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Something New. Mommy, Kenya's dating white boys now.
- DONE! Katie Scarlett - Newsies. You get your picture in the papes, you're famous. You're famous, you get anything you want. That's what's so great about New York.
- DONE! Matthew - The Prestige. Nothing is impossible, Mr. Angier. What you want is simply expensive.
- DONE! Emily - The Importance of Being Earnest. I don't know whether there is anything particularly exciting about the air in this particular part of Hartfortshire, but the number of engagements that go on seem to me to be considerably above the proper average that statistics have laid down for our guidance.
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Bridget Jones' Diary. My mum, a strange creature from the time when pickles on toothpicks were still the height of sophistication.
- DONE! Ross - Grosse Point Blank. A thousand innocent people get killed every day! But a millionaire's pet gets detonated, and you're marked for life.
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Becoming Jane. To have a wife who has a mind is considered not quite proper. To have a wife with a literary reputation nothing short of scandalous.
- DONE! Jamie - A Christmas Story. Aunt Clara had for years labored under the delusion that I was not only perpetually 4 years old, but also a girl.
- Do you know why we clink glasses before drinking?... It's so that all the five senses are involved. We touch the glass. We smell the drink. We see its color. We taste it. Hearing is the only sense that doesn't participate unless we create it.
- DONE! Kelly - Raising Helen. Hippo is a Lutheran.
- DONE! Jen - The Rainmaker. There's gotta be a hundred years of law experience sitting at this very table. My staff has flunked the bar exam six times.
- DONE! Nacwolin - Never Been Kissed. Sex can be fun... when you're old enough, which none of you are. I should know. When you lose it to some guy named Junior with bad breath in the back of a van at a Guns N' Roses concert, your gonna wish you had listened to your mother when she said, "There not gonna want to buy the whole friggin' ice cream truck when your handing out the popsicles for free!
- DONE! Kelly - Anchorman. I ate fiberglass insulation. It wasn't cotton candy like the guy said... my tummy itches.
- DONE! Katie Scarlett - North & South. I wish I could tell you how lonely I am. How cold and harsh it is here. Everywhere there is conflict and unkindness. I think God has forsaken this place. I believe I have seen hell and it's white, it's snow-white.
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Four Weddings and a Funeral. Dear Lord, forgive me for what I am about to, ah, say in this magnificent place of worship... Bugger! Bugger! Bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger!
- DONE! Ginger_Sister - Office Space. Good evening Sir, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.
- DONE! Matthew - Stranger Than Fiction. I don't need a nicotine patch, Penny, I smoke cigarettes.

there are a couple more that really are close. I can almost see the guy saying number four. GRR. Fun Selection.
But I did see number 8 - Ocean's Eleven.
21 A Christmas Story
22 Sideways?
Yep! Good job.
13 is Casablanca
26 is Anchorman (haha!)
23 may or may not be Raising Helen.
I also knew most of the guessed ones. :)
I'm drinking a Diet Pepsi right now too. :)
I think I ate your chocolate covered squirrel. (Although I think that's a deleted scene.)
Seriously, work in a TV station and you will see how true that movie is. I know anchors who will read whatever you put in the prompter.
This is so neat! But it's going to bug me all night because I *know* that I know #4 and #25 and I can NOT think of them right now. I'll probably remember at like 2am when I'm feeding the baby. At least I can come back here and check to see if someone else gets them......
#25 is totally on tip of my tongue, but I just can't seem to spit it out!
4. 10 Things I Hate About You
24. The Rain Maker
#16 is The Prestige
#11 Talladega Nights
#30 Stranger Than Fiction (I do love Emma Thompson)
I think it's funny that two of my answers are Will Ferrell movies.
The others I knew were already guessed, although a few of the ones that remain sound familiar...good job!
Yay! I knew that you were probably the ONLY one who would get #27. Just had to wait for you to read this blog, lol.
