Life continues busy, mostly happily. Have catch-up and beta-ing to do. But in the meantime, this meme's making the rounds again, and I keep meaning to do it, so here we go.
These are quotes from 15 movies I own. How many do you know without having to look them up? (And do you know who said them?)
1. Some have great stories. Pretty stories that take place at lakes with boats and friends and noodle salad. Just, no one in this car. But a lot of people, that's their story. Good times. Noodle salad.
(As Good As It Gets, guessed by
hannahrorlove)
2. Yes, yes. Without the "oops." Thataway.
(Independence Day, guessed by
nightdog_barks and
elynittria)
3. When you talk to the President, you might remind him that I am holding his wife, his daughter, his chief of staff, his national security advisor, his classified papers, and his baseball glove!
(Air Force One, guessed by
perspi and
elynittria)
4. It's the goof of all time. Look, but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, but don't swallow. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fuckin' ass off! He's a tight-ass! He's a sadist! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? Never!
(Devil's Advocate, guessed by
cryptictac)
5. Of my friend, I can only say this: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.
(Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, guessed by
pwcorgigirl,
elynittria and
daasgrrl)
6. Lose it? I didn't lose it. It's not like, "Whoops, where'd my job go?" I quit. Someone pass me the asparagus.
(American Beauty, guessed by
phinnia and
the_drifter)
7. I like these calm little moments before the storm. It reminds me of Beethoven. Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear it growin', and you can hear the insects... Do you like Beethoven?
(Leon / The Professional, guessed by
cryptictac)
8. Sixty-five years. Don't they go by in a blink.
ETA: You're not Death. You're just a kid in a suit.
(Meet Joe Black, guessed by
cryptictac)
9. Why can't I be good at anything except shooting marbles? Marble champ. So what? If only I could run or swim or do something to be the Camp Champ.
(Care Bears Movie II, guessed by
recrudescence and
cryptictac)
10. You must not be seen, and you would do well, I feel, to return before this last chime. If not, the consequences are too ghastly to discuss. If you succeed tonight, more than one innocent life may be spared. Three turns should do it, I think.
(Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, guessed by
perspi,
elynittria and
the_drifter)
11. Character 1: What do you call the mouse shadow on the second moon?
Character 2: We call that one Muad'Dib.
(Dune, guessed by
cryptictac and
thewlisian_afer)
12. The first boy I ever kissed ended up in a coma for three weeks. I can still feel him inside my head. It's the same with you.
(X-Men, guessed by
thedeadparrot and
the_drifter)
13. I don't need to be lectured by you. I was out saving the galaxy when your grandfather was in diapers. Besides which, I think the galaxy owes me one.
(Star Trek: Generations, guessed by
cryptictac)
14. They know about us. They watch us dine on empty plates and drink from empty glasses.
(Interview with the Vampire, guessed by
cryptictac)
15. Don't be silly! I could never love anyone more than I love my sisters.
(Little Women, guessed by
ahab99)
