View Full Version : The Movie Quote Game
Lorinda Norton December 9th, 2010, 12:00 AM Strike one, dear Jon. Try again. :)
Hey, while I have you here...why don't you join us for the DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge upstairs? We haven't seen a J Jones film in a long, long time!

I so want to, and have been hoping to get back into the ring for quite a while, but have been unable to get a workable schedule that would allow for it for a long time. I dropped off the map for much of the last 2 years to tend to family medical issues - and then subsequently trying, and sometimes failing to resurrect dormant projects and juggle client deadlines. But after 2010 closes out, my schedule is expected to free up considerably, and I can look forward to jumping into some upcoming challenges.

Lorinda Norton December 9th, 2010, 12:22 AM Good to hear that 2011 sounds less hectic and stressful. Just know that you've been missed.
Guess we should get back to the game! Here's the quote again:
You left...just when you were becoming interesting.
Lorinda Norton December 9th, 2010, 12:07 PM Another quote, same character:
I suddenly remembered my Charlemagne. Let my armies be the rocks and the trees and the birds in the sky...
Garrett Low December 9th, 2010, 05:44 PM Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade?
I believe that is the movie but I'm trying really hard to block it :-)
-Garrett
Lorinda Norton December 9th, 2010, 07:02 PM That's it. Your turn.
Garrett Low December 9th, 2010, 10:31 PM OK, I don't know if this one has been done before. I did a quick search and didn't find it.
"You wanna be president? Lemme tell you the first rule of politics; Always know if the juice is worth the squeeze."
Might be an easy one but it's a line that popped in my head.
-Garrett
Bill Thesken December 12th, 2010, 12:16 PM Nobody answered, so I looked at the boxofficemojo.com list of 'President' type movies and will make a guess based on the 'outsider' tone of the quote:
'Man of the Year'
Garrett Low December 12th, 2010, 05:46 PM Sorry Bill. Think along the story line of Risky Business but made after 2000.
-Garrett
Garrett Low December 14th, 2010, 01:00 PM OK here's some more lines:
Ferrari: I know I lost my virginity at prom. How about you? When did you lose your virginity?
April: When I was ten.
Ferrari: Okay, moving on...
and
Eli: Okay, you know what the three of us are? We're a tripod.
Klitz: A tripod?
Eli: Yes, a tripod. Which means that if you knock out one of our legs, WE-ALL-FALL!
These characters are not the same as the one that said the line in my first clue.
-Garrett
Andy Graham January 17th, 2011, 01:53 PM No idea, sounds like a highschool coming of age movie which is a genre im not so clued up on.
Andy.
Garrett Low January 19th, 2011, 11:11 AM Andy, you're on the right track. There are actually two movies that I know of with this exact title. One made in 2007 is based on a Jack Ketchum novel and is a very dark drama. Then there is the movie that these quotes are from, a 2004, coming of age comedy.
-Garrett
Lorinda Norton January 21st, 2011, 01:33 AM Actually, this one has been sitting here far too long--since Dec. 9. Andy, since you responded last why don't you post a new quote and we'll try to get things rolling again.
Andy Graham January 21st, 2011, 03:33 AM Ok before i go what was the answer to the last one Garrett?
Right next quote is...
" What day is it, anyway? Monday? Huh? The hell it is. It's Sunday. Sunday I always dress for dinner."
Andy
Andy Graham January 31st, 2011, 06:30 AM been sittin for a while now. one more clue...
in the scene he's talking to a statue of caesar
Andy.
Andy Graham February 2nd, 2011, 03:16 AM been holdin this up too long...it was Omega Man
fire in anyone
Lorinda Norton February 4th, 2011, 02:06 AM Andy, I thought someone would jump in by now. Must not be many stopping by these days.
Here's an easy one that may get the game rolling again:
Character 1: It doesn't bother you? Killing all those people?
Character 2: Well, I wouldn't be very good at my job if it did.
Jonathan Jones February 4th, 2011, 02:11 AM Must not be many stopping by these days.
I've been stopping by. I've just been beset by a protracted plague of intellectual paralysis. These last several rounds (including this one) are uncomfortably humbling to me.
Perhaps there are others lurking as well. And if they're like me.....well, I just know that I have no guesses of notable merit to offer.
Keep 'em coming.
-Jon
Lorinda Norton February 4th, 2011, 10:51 AM Film release 2006. This quote should give it away:
I have two pair and you have 17.4% chance of making your straight.
Lorinda Norton February 5th, 2011, 01:38 PM Last clue before turning it over to someone else. You'll have killing, Poker, and romance from which to guess, if you haven't seen the movie:
Character 1: You love me?
Character 2: Enough to travel the world with you until one of us has to take an honest job...which I think is going to have to be you, because I have no idea what an honest job is.
Jonathan Jones February 5th, 2011, 01:46 PM Last clue before turning it over to someone else. You'll have killing, Poker, and romance from which to guess, if you haven't seen the movie:

Okay, I never saw this film in its entirety. (I'm quite behind on this series), but I saw bits and pieces on TNT, including this scene.
I'm pretty sure this is the recent version of "Casino Royale".

Lorinda Norton February 5th, 2011, 01:51 PM Whew! I did everything short of posting, "The name's Bond...James Bond." :)
Go, Jonathon!
