Movie Quotes (Pointless Knowledge)

[Kristian Ronge]

I put together some movie quotes off the top of my head. If you're up to it, guess the movies these quotes are from (and shame, shame, shame on you if you use IMDB or any other quote source to find out where they're from!). I didn't double-check these, so they *could* be slightly inaccurate, be warned. Some are easy, but some are obscure and should be hard:

EDIT: Well, it's been two weeks and I think it's time to reveal the sources of the quotes. I hope you had fun.

I suck.

[Bloodshedder]

13. Groundhog Day

[Lüt]

I either know none of these or have heard them many times in many different movies. I have one of my own though:

- It doesn't DO anything, that's the beauty of it!

I saw a thread on another forum where somebody wanted to know the source of that. They said it was so familiar, but just couldn't place it. As soon as they brought it up, there were about 400 similar responses, all expressing the same irritation. Now it's bothering me too.

[Ichor]

7. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
17. Die Hard 2

[Lüt]

Hay post something useful here instead :(

[Ichor]

Done, and I've heard that the quote might be from the old Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie.

[Remilia Scarlet]

#3, Robocop, said by Clarence Boddicker when he was talking to the other drug lord.

[Lord FlatHead]

10. Seven

[Kristian Ronge]

I am very impressed so far! You guys are obviously suckers for movie quotes too. :-)

BTW, #17 is not "Die Hard 2" -- but it's close!

[GooberMan]

12: Once Upon A Time In The West.

Watched it the other night too :)

14: Back to the Future

Marty sees his dad perving on his mom.

[chilvence]

Is 4 from Aliens?

[Kristian Ronge]

Indeed it is! 11 down, 9 to go. :-)

[Jonathan]

Is 15 from Big?

[Kristian Ronge]

Yes, it is. Nicely caught!

[Linguica]

16 sounds like My Fair Lady

[Sharessa]

Damn, people already answered the ones I know...except...is #1 Sin City? It sounds very familiar at any rate. So does #20.

Lüt said:

Agh! That is soooo damn familiar...but I can't place my finger on it.

My guess is Dr. Strangelove but I don't think that's right.

[Kristian Ronge]

#1 and #20 are not from "Sin City".
#16 is not "My Fair Lady", in fact, it's *very* far from it!

[Sharessa]

I didn't say #20 was Sin City. :/

[Kristian Ronge]

Sorry, my bad. :-(

[Bucket]

Another guess...

1. Armageddon
20. Return of The Jedi

[Linguica]

From My Fair Lady song lyrics:

Oh, wouldn't it be lovely ? (lovely)
Lovely (lovely)

oh burn

[Kristian Ronge]

All right, Ling, I can't argue with that. Well done. :-D (There's another movie I had in mind, though.)

Numbermind: #1 isn't "Armageddon", #20 isn't "Return of the Jedi", sorry.

[el zee]

#16 is from 'frenzy'

[Kristian Ronge]

Yes, it is. Classic Hitchcock...

7 to go!

It was from the original Die Hard, as the double-cross mentioned was the terrorists preparing to bomb the top of the building... the "tell me about it" was about the Feds bringing in a gunship rather than the transport the terrorists wanted. That exchange was between Al Powell and someone else.

[Opulent]

without looking at others':
2 jaws
5 Galaxy quest
12 Once upon a time in the west (awesome line)
13 groundhog day

You'd think I'd get more of them.

[exp(x)]

I only knew the Jaws and MPatHG quotes. The only reason I knew the Jaws one is because everyone knows it; I haven't even seen the movie. I have seen the Grail more than a few times, though!

[Kristian Ronge]

Oh, someone moved this from Blogs? Uh, okay, then...

Vile said:

You are correct, Sir!

Do you all want some clues for the remaining quotes? (1,6,8,9,18,20)

[Opulent]

6: Gandalf?
20: I think you have it quoted wrong, but I can't be sure... it is a very recent action movie.
and the "it doesn't do anything" could be Spock from TOS pertaining to the Tribbles.
I think this line might be combined from many similar lines in many movies. Take Throw Momma from the train, one of Billy Crystal's students says that about him when he is accused of the murder.
