First collected from [livejournal.com profile] jldecker, it's a Movie Meme!

1. Pick one dozen movies that are ones that you have special feelings about.
2. Pick a few lines of dialogue that mean something to you.
3. As people guess the film, strike out that entry.


Edit: Eh, I can never tell what's hard and what's easy. I've made these less obscure and more meaningful. Aaaand: I've added a Bonus Movie! I love this quote:

Bonus: "Because I am not going to be grounded again! Not for you! Not for anybody!"

  1. "The waters? What waters? We're in the desert." / "I was misinformed." Casablanca

  2. "Rules? In a knife fight? No rules." / ::rack:: "Well, if there aint' going to be any rules, let's get the fight started. Someone count 1,2,3 go."

  3. See now, this is why mad scientists are generally less desirable than your common or garden variety scientist.

  4. I'm thinking with sand here!

  5. I would like to eat your suitcase.

  6. Congratulations, Reg. It's a... squid. Men in Black

  7. "God, aren't you even gonna kiss her goodbye?" / "Nope."

  8. "You're no killer, I don't believe you'd do it." / "You're already dead, Silberman. Everybody dies. You know I believe it so don't fuck with me!"

  9. You really licked his ass!

  10. "What if we were lying?" / "Why would we lie to ourselves?"

  11. On and off, off and on, all day, all night. [[dead giveaway sentence clipped]] Tire salons, automobile dealerships, and wonderful, wonderful billboards reaching as far as the eye can see. My God... It'll be beautiful. Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

  12. "Friend? Hell, I got lots of friends." / "I don't."

Not so much range, I'm afraid; I haven't been thinking with all cylinders lately. Also, once again I ignored the directive that the lines must be particularly meaningful to me (though some are), in favor of increased obscurity. Maybe I'll reveal the lines that really stick out to me after you guys pin down the flick...

(Edit: Nah, the edit pretty much brought these to meaningfulness. Though these movies all have a surfeit of great lines. Except #5. Sorry, that's the only great line in that movie, but it really isn't as bad a movie as you might expect if you've only heard about the lead...)

Right you are! Great movie. :) I think my favorite line from it is the Ford POS.

Well, #1 is Casablanca, of course, which I can probably recite in its entirety if put in the lightest of trances and then prompted, and #11 is Who Framed Roger Rabbit? -- Christopher Lloyd as Judge Doom. Heh.

Right on both! I was just hearing somewhere that decades ago, the "I was misinformed" quote was the most popular in Casablanca, but lately it's been "Shocked! Shocked!"

And I wish Christopher Lloyd was in one of the Harry Potter movies so people would do up paens on him... I love that guy. :)
