Character 1: How much is the coffee?

Character 2: Fifty-three cents.

Character 1: How much is the tea?

Character 2: Fifty-three cents.

Character 1: (beat) I'll have the tea.

I know this one, but I'll let someone else run with it. ;)

I know I've heard this line somewhere. Is it from The Usual Suspects?

Okay, it's been a few days:

Midnight Run?

But of course! Charles Grodin's delivery on this line kills me every time.

Take it away, Paul.

I knew I'd seen it but couldn't place it. Great movie with a bunch of funny verbal exchanges. Good stuff.

"Is that it? Is that all you're gonna ask me? Well I got a couple of thousand goddamn questions, you know. I want to speak to someone in charge. I want to lodge a complaint. You have no right to make people crazy! You think I investigate every Walter Cronkite story there is?"

"Close Encounters of The Third Kind"

I always wanted to go up into outer space.

-Garrett

You got it, Garrett. Your turn.

Here's one that might be a little difficult.

Character 1: You're sure trying hard to make a hero out of me.

Character 2: You're that already. You just need a special act, something that'll make your name a legend.

Character 1: What I don't understand is what difference it makes to you.

Charachter 2: If a man is a man, he needs someone to believe in.

Character 1: I've met all kinds in my life. Thieves and killers. Pimps and prostitutes. Con men and preachers. Even a few fellas that told the truth. The kind of man you're talking about, never.

-Garrett

No guesses yet? Is it the quote or do I need to give hints?

:)

Garrett

I'm not speaking for anyone else here, but I personally hate wimping out for hints - but at the same time, I got "nuthin'." I'm coming up empty on this one. If no one sounds off with a good answer soon, then maybe a hint might be in order - such as year or genre.... or both.

-Jon

O.K. I thought this would either be a really easy one or a hard one. Guess I may have finally found one that's a little more difficult.

Hints:
Sergio Leone was one of the writers

Released in the US in 1974 (additional hint there)

and here's another line containing one of the characters names:

Character 1: I see it clear as crystal. Jack Beauregard standing alone, facing the Wild Bunch. Just think of it. You'll be written up in all the history books.

Jack Beauregard: You'll be down on Earth reading them while I'm up there playing on a harp.

Maybe that will jog some memories.

Garrett

Hang 'em High


Is that it?

-Jon

Thinking along the right lines, Spaghetti Western, but it doesn't have Clint in it. Jack Beauregard was played by a very famous Academy Award winning actor.

-Garrett

Aha. I know what it is... but I'll defer to someone else for the win.

Chris, you may have to answer this one.

-Garrett

NOBODY have a guess?

-Garrett

Well, I guess I've stood aside long enough... "Il mio nome è Nessuno" released in the U.S. as "My Name is Nobody."

You got it Chris. Are we the only two in here that have seen that movie?

Your turn.

Garrett

Along the same lines then...

Actor #1: "Sixteen... seventeen... twenty-two. Twenty-two?"

(gunfire)

Actor #1: "Twenty-seven."

Actor #2: "Any trouble, boy?"

Actor #1: "No, old man. Thought I was having trouble with my adding. It's all right now."

For A Few Dollars More

All yours, Bill -- let's hear your quote!

This is probably too easy. I also just re-read the very first post where it's okay to 'X' a name.

"I'm XXXXX the Masochist. I live here. My friend is close to death and we need to get him in the water."

The Masochist, water? Gotta be Gary Busey in Big Wednesday.... :)

-Garrett

You got it, LeRoy the masochist. I'll bet Busey recreated that character at parties...
Next!
-BT

Here's a fun one:

King: I am your king.

Woman: Well I didn't vote for you.

King: You don't vote for kings.

Woman: Well how'd you become king then?

King: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.

Dennis: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Haha, finally I know one. Monty Python & the Holy Grail. I love that line.

I thought someone would get that one quickly but I love so many lines from that movie.

Your turn David.

-Garrett

Somewhat easy, if you're into the movie:

Character 1: Yeah, they got nice homes over there.. you got a pool over there?
Character 2: Yes. We have a pool.... Pool and a pond. Pond would be good for you.
Character 1: Yeah pool/pond whatever.

Oh man I know this one. But I'll wait to see if someone else gets it. I love this movie so much I have three copies of the DVD. I keep seeing it in the store and forget I already have it.

:P Garrett

Caddyshack.

I haven't seen that movie in ten years but the lines are so funny and delivered so perfectly you can't forget them.

You got it.

Yeah, been a while since I've seen it too be some lines are ingrained in my mind. Go ahead, your turn.

Okay, this one should be another dunk.

Character 1: "Inconceivable!"

Character 2: "You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

'The Princess Bride'

Correcto!

All yours, Bill.

"In - con - ceivable!" I love that line.
Try this:

The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

A Clockwork Orange

You got it Jonathan.
Wow, that only took 2 minutes.....

Here's the next one:

"Do you know what time it is?"

"12:00?"

"S'pose ya gotta get up early, huh?"

"No, not particularly. How come?"

"It's just after I see a good movie, I like to go get a piece of pie and talk about it. Sort of a little tradition I have. Do you like to get pie after you see a good movie?"

"Yeah, I love to get pie after a movie."

"Would you like to go get some pie with me?" (giggles)

"I'd love some pie."
