Last nite I posted a quote in another area of Fourum(probably not an appropriate area at that), and offered a bounty of votes to anybody who could name the film and the actor/actress who spoke it. Not 30 minutes later, a respected reviewer stopped by and nailed down what I thought would stand for at least an hour.

It got me thinking... I could probably list an obscure quote from the most innocuous of flicks, and somebody would straggle by an knock it outta the park.

I've been wanting to do something with quotes ever since I started trying to guess the source of Animal Mutha's bi-weekly inspirations in FYCTH, so here's the game, be it simple and or tired/tried...

Simply Guess the film that a listed quote derives from, maybe add the actor/actress who uttered the line or perhaps the context, and I'll visit your pages to drop some(10+) votes on ya. The first to guess correctly will be visited, but then becomes responsible for listing the next quote in the thread. When that quote is guessed, the previous winner/lister of the current quote becomes responsible for visiting the reviewer who correctly guessed, and so on...

Pretty simple stuff, we'll see how or if it evolves.


My quote...


"ehhh, purple lightning... That's always a good sign!"

I'm a slacker, I see. Okay, sorry for not noticing!!

Here's my quote, submitted for your reading pleasure:

Now get the hell down in the cellar. You can be the boss down there, but I'm boss up here!

I did recognize the line, and knew it was a movie I'd seen in the past year or so, and I was right about that... just couldn't put my finger in the title without Google's help.

Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead

Really cool, odd, under-heralded film.

So.... Next up:

A: I've been taking my temperature and I know I'm ovulating right now. The ground is ready, I just need someone to plant the seed.
B: Yeah, but who's going to be the lucky farmer?




So, I think we can all agree... Google Rocks!

Paid the 10+ votes to Mimo for the guess, Kudos on the guess BTW, love that movie... Well deserved!

Sorry for the delay, I thought this post was dead. I checked occasionally(even tried to revive it thru underhanded edits) to see what's up, but no action since I cheated to guess Livie's quote. You were spot on, Bean, and I will be paying you the 10+ votes promptly.

I actually love this post, 'cuz it embodies the very essence of... Do you know this film based on a couple of lines from a simple quote... Thanks all for reviving it for me, hope it takes hold to stay...
Beanmimo Posted - 10/23/2008 : 11:09:31
Livie on!!

Ten votes on their way to you.

Nooooooo, that was Blades of Glory.
Wheelz Posted - 10/22/2008 : 18:08:44
I don't recall the quote, but two very distinct character voices were in my head as I read it...

So I'll say...

Beavis and Butthead Do America

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Here goes

actor1 : The night is a very dark time for me.
actor2: It's dark for everyone, moron!
actor1: Not for Alaskans or dudes with night-vision goggles.

Your unilluminated shot is right on target!
