K. Forman September 9th, 2006 09:31 AM

Sounds like Peter Sellers as Clouseau, but it's hard to say which movie.

Eric Emerick September 9th, 2006 09:32 AM

Pink Panther, which one I'm not sure.

Lorinda Norton September 9th, 2006 09:45 AM

The boys from Melbourne almost have the mystery sol-ved! If you don't want to guess which one, we could just pass it on to one of you.

Eric Emerick September 9th, 2006 09:48 AM

The Pink Panther Strikes Again

Lorinda Norton September 9th, 2006 09:51 AM

Not quite, but close enough for me! Take it, Eric!

Eric Emerick September 9th, 2006 10:13 AM

I guessed based on the synopsis that read "Charles Dreyfus escapes from the mental asylum and tries to kill Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau." Oh well. Here goes-

"It's their place, Mac. They have a right to do what they want with it. You can't eat scenery. Cheers!"

K. Forman September 9th, 2006 11:00 AM

Holy crap Eric! I didn't know you were there! What's up neighbor?

Eric Emerick September 10th, 2006 10:11 AM

Hint #2-

"Any beach that takes your fancy, anywhere in the world, I'll get for you".

Eric Emerick September 10th, 2006 05:54 PM

OK, 3's a charm-

"The Happer Institute, I like that, it says it all."

Eric Emerick September 12th, 2006 11:33 AM

K, time's up. Local Hero, a 1984 movie, Burt Lancaster, Peter Riegert.

Next one-

"He had simply written down music already finished, in his head!"

Barry Gribble September 12th, 2006 11:51 AM

Amadeus?

I love that flick.

Eric Emerick September 12th, 2006 12:02 PM

Well done. Your move.

Barry Gribble September 12th, 2006 12:51 PM

"Why? I came into this game for adventure - go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's trouble, a man alone."

Barry Gribble September 13th, 2006 07:22 AM

The line was spoken by Robert De Niro.

Chris Hurd September 13th, 2006 07:39 AM

Hmm, could it be... Brazil?

Barry Gribble September 13th, 2006 08:19 AM

Sure is... your turn.

Chris Hurd September 13th, 2006 09:28 AM

Okay, this one's probably too easy... but I've had this quote in my head ever since I saw it for the umpteenth time a few weeks ago. Figured the only way to exorcize it is to deliver it here. So have at it:

"Now, is you is, or is you ain't, my constituency? Ah repeat... is you is, or is you ain't, my constituency?"

Ben Winter September 13th, 2006 10:08 AM

I saw this two nights ago! O Brother Where Art Thou! Fantastic music. Clooney practiced his singing voice for months only to have it dubbed over in the final cut anyway.

Chris Hurd September 13th, 2006 10:10 AM

Forty minutes! I knew it wouldn't take long. All yours, Ben!

Ben Winter September 13th, 2006 10:36 AM

great movie--

"You met me at a very strange time in my life."

Ben Winter September 18th, 2006 12:02 AM

Oh come on people! Here's a hint: The actor who says it was in The Illusionist and grew up in Columbia MD.

Barry Gribble September 18th, 2006 06:53 PM

Fight Club?

Ben Winter September 19th, 2006 02:17 PM

Right on! Your move...

Barry Gribble September 22nd, 2006 01:07 PM

Sorry guys... been in production all week. Here you go:

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

Andy Graham September 22nd, 2006 05:05 PM

The running man ?

Barry Gribble September 22nd, 2006 09:08 PM

Nope. About a decade off.

Barry Gribble September 24th, 2006 04:28 AM

The line was delivered by Al Pacino.

Marvin Emms September 24th, 2006 08:06 PM

Any given sunday?

Barry Gribble September 25th, 2006 03:59 AM

That's the one... your turn.

Marvin Emms September 25th, 2006 05:01 AM

Ok, in the spirit of the last quote, I'm going to break a rule. I'm going to quote instead from a TV show that changed the way I think.

"What is truth? Tell me if you think you know... and I will not believe you."

Dimitri De Keukelaere September 25th, 2006 10:03 AM

"the x-files" ?

Marvin Emms September 26th, 2006 01:11 AM

Its not, but that was an excellent guess.

I'll drop the clue this is an animation.

Barry Gribble September 26th, 2006 04:51 AM

The Simpsons?

Marvin Emms September 26th, 2006 05:13 AM

I didn't make it that easy!

Barry Gribble September 26th, 2006 06:04 AM

Yeah, OK, well I'm out of animated TV shows that I know anything about, so I'll sit back and watch :0. But I really heard it in Homer's voice as I read it.

Marvin Emms September 26th, 2006 06:28 AM

Sorry Barry, not how I meant it. Simpsons is the defining animated show for more than a decade, theres virtually nothing they haven't done. I knew if I quoted from them it would be guessed in about 10 seconds. I hope I've not made this too obscure.

Marvin Emms September 27th, 2006 01:25 PM

One more hint and if it hasn't been guessed tomorrow I'll try a quote from a movie!

It was made into a live action movie released last year, where they discarded everything except the charectar names.

Animated series.

"What is truth? Tell me if you think you know... and I will not believe you."

Marvin Emms September 29th, 2006 06:55 PM

Series was, "Aeon Flux"

Without a doubt the most disturbing and subversive program to ever be on after childrens hour in the UK and lead to a movie that discarded every single important aspect.

The truth was too obscure, so I'll try lies.

A film, the english translation (big hint) has the following...

"All words are lies. Pain doesn't lie."
"Only pain and suffering will show you who you are."

Marvin Emms October 1st, 2006 08:01 PM

About the first hour of this is a gentle sort of what could almost be a simple love story. Its been likened to a John Hughes film up until this point. The rest, rather isn't, in the same way a train wreck is not entirely like a train ride.

Marvin Emms October 5th, 2006 12:02 PM

I'm quite dissapointed noone got that, I'd have thought a lot of people here would have seen it.

"Audition" (1999) Takashi Miike.

One last attempt and then I'll hand the rains over to someone else if noone gets it.


"I'm an escaped mental patient with a history of violence."
