Sticking with the pattern I used last time, twenty-four hours between clues, here's the next conversation, taken from the scene immediately preceding the last quote:


Characters 1 and 2 are discussing a device they've built in Character 1's garage.

Character 1: You want to see something weirder? Okay, let's go over this again. Two batteries, right? Twenty-four volts?

Character 2 nods.

Character 1: What are we pulling out of this one? Just for fun.

Character 2: Twelve volts.

Character 1 disconnects the first battery and kicks it aside.

Character 1: How about this one?

Character 2: Should be twelve volts.

Character 1 disconnects the other battery and pushes it aside as well. The machine is still running.

Character 1: So what the hell is this thing?

Character 2: (incredulous) It doesn't stay like that.

Character 1: No, I mean it winds down in a few minutes ... what does that?

Little late today, sorry. No guesses yet? All right, then, the stops are pulled, here's what I'd say is the film's most memorable line:


Aaron: Man, are you hungry? I haven't eaten since later this afternoon.


I don't know how much help the character name will be, as I'm be pretty sure you'll recognize the quote if you know the movie. Can't hurt to include it, though.

I'll also reveal the film is a fairly small independent endeavor, involving relatively few cast and crew members, many having roles on both sides of the camera. Shot in 2001 for about seven thousand dollars (if I remember the DVD commentary correctly), the film wasn't released until 2004. Finally, the movie features a practically incomprehensible story, and only after I watched it again yesterday (the fourth time I've seen the movie, in total) did I start to understand it. One of my favorites nonetheless.

Well, here we are again. The film in question is the low budget time travel puzzlebox "Primer", which I highly recommend if you're in to stories you have to piece together yourself. I'd describe it as David Lynch directs "Back to the Future", but about half as confusing as that would actually turn out.

Here's an easy one to get us back up and moving again:


Dimpus Burger Guy: Right, uh, beverage?

Farva: Gimme a, uh, liter o' cola.

Dimpus Burger Guy: A what?

Farva: A liter o' cola?

Dimpus Burger Guy: Literocola. Do we make Literocola?

Thorny: Will you just order a large, Farva?

Farva: I don't want a large Farva. I want a goddamn liter o' cola.

Dimpus Burger Guy: I don't know what that is.

Farva: "Liter" is French for "give me some ****in' cola before I break vous ****in' lip!"

Chris McMahon September 29th, 2009 03:28 PM

Super Troopers. You had me at Farva.

Robert Martens September 29th, 2009 03:33 PM

I never get tired of watching that movie; hooks me in every time it's on TV.

Your turn, Chris!

Chris McMahon September 29th, 2009 03:35 PM

Alright. Here we go.

Character 1: This is a lovely golf course, I'm tempted to join the club.
Character 2: I'm afraid you can't.
Character 1: You mean they discriminate against Scots?
Character 2: No, they just don't want assholes in the clubhouse.

Chris McMahon September 30th, 2009 09:06 PM

No takers? Jeez. Here's another one, from the same movie.

Character 1: Character 2! You've been overeating again, haven't you?
Character 2: Uh, no I haven't.
Character 1: Then explain to me why there is black forest cherry cake in your cleavage!

Chris McMahon October 2nd, 2009 08:14 AM

Okay... well, hopefully somebody will at least attempt it now. Hint... this line contains a portion of the title.

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen. Your attention please. Welcome to the newest, the greatest, the most spectacular in entertainment history. Put your hands together for the Fabulous Feebles Variety Hour.

Chris Hurd October 2nd, 2009 10:00 AM

Aha. A Peter Jackson film! Well done. I'm not taking it, so it's still up for grabs...

Chris McMahon October 2nd, 2009 10:38 PM

Pretty sure that no one else is going to get it, so it's all yours, Chris.

Chris Hurd October 2nd, 2009 11:11 PM

Okay, so that was Meet The Feebles... it's past my bedtime right now, but I'll have a quote for y'all in the morning.

Thanks Chris. I was stumped and knew I wasn't gonna guess it. I pretty much try to limit my cheating to tic-tac-toe and resisted the urge to google the quote.

1: "I've been having this nightmare. A real swinger of a nightmare, too. Has to do with, uh, all kinds of strange people."

2: "Is it about a Russian general and some Chinese and me and the men who were on the patrol?"

1: "How did you know that? How do you know?"

2: "Take your hands off me."

Chris Hurd October 6th, 2009 10:46 AM

Come on, I thought this one would be dead easy!

I'm gonna guess "The Manchurian Candidate". The original one with ol' Blue Eyes.
