Movie quote madness…

I originally say this at Enny`s blog but have seen it doing the rounds on a lot of blogs I read in the last couple of weeks and it sounds and looks like fun so here goes!

Here are the rules:
~Pick fifteen of your favourite movies.
~Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
~Post them here for everyone to guess.
~Strike it out when someone guesses correctly in the comments, and put who guessed it and the movie.
~NO Googling or using IMDb search functions.

  1. I better have my lawyer take a look at these. I’m just a simple country boy. There’s all kinds of big words in here I can’t even pronounce. Hell, you might be takin’ me to the cleaners for all I know.” Nat got it with Sweet Home Alabama, Jake is such a cutie in this film!
  2. “No I mean, do you really know where Harvard is? It’s another planet man- another universe. Totally unlike the one we know. Filled with big blond guys who eat ivy and row boats. What I’m trying to say is, you and Corey just aren’t made for each other. She’s different from you.” Amanda is correct with Empire Records, my favourite movie of all time with out a doubt!
  3. “marriage is like a tense, unfunny version of Everybody Loves Raymond, only it doesn’t last 22 minutes. It lasts forever.” Jen got it with Knocked Up, a movie I saw when I was in Australia over Christmas!
  4. ” Crème brûlée can never be Jell-O. YOU could never be Jell-O.” Jo was correct, it was My Best Friends Wedding starring Julia Robert!
  5. “: You know, if we fix up this car, it could be make-out city, you know that.” Amanda again with Grease!
  6. “This is smores stuff. First you take the graham. You stick the chocolate on the graham. Then, you roast the mallow. When the mallows flaming, you stick it on the chocolate and cover it with the other end. Then, you scarf.”Natalie got it with The Sandalot Kids, my favourite childhood movie and one of my fathers favourites still!!!
  7. “Dolphins, yeah! They think they’re so cute. Oh, look at me, I’m a flippy little dolphin, let me flip for you. Ain’t I something?” I had thought it would be someone with kids that got this! Finding Nemo, thanks Illahee
  8. “You were outside, I was inside. You were supposed to keep in touch with the band. I kept asking you if we were gonna play again.”
  9. “This is a sin, it’s a wicked indulgence. Didn’t they have any butter pecan?” Illahee again!
  10. “That’s a tough one. I would have to say April 25th. Because it’s not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.” Natalie got this one too!!! It is Miss Congeniality!
  11. “Besides, that whole see-through blouse, colored-bra thing… reads a little, you know, desperate, older gal, trying to hard. Don’t you think? Yeah, you want to make him work for it.”Jo agin with Maid in Manhattan!
  12. “You know Graham, I just broke up with someone and considering you just showed up and you’re insanely good-looking and probably won’t remember me anyway… I’m thinking we should have sex… If you want.” Tokenwoman got this with The Holiday, I am surprised it didn`t go sooner. When I saw this film last year I loved it, I thought it was one of the best romantic comedies to come out in awhile!
  13. “Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn’t actually kill you. Like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you’ve promised to cherish till death do you part says “I never loved you,” it should kill you instantly. You shouldn’t have to wake up day after day after that, trying to understand how in the world you didn’t know. The light just never went on, you know. I must have known, of course, but I was too scared to see the truth. Then fear just makes you so stupid.” Madison got it with Under The Tuscan Sun, I am a huge fan of this movie because I would love to just pack up and move to Tuscany! Off to check out Madisons blog since she is new here! Thanks for participating Madison!
  14. “Christ! what are you? 15? My God man! You gotta be gettin’ that young stuff! The young stuff is the best stuff in the world. Your jail bait, their jail bait. You turn sixteen and your looking at three to five. Jac got this, It is Little Miss Sunshine, one of the best movies I watched last year!
  15. The difference between you and I is that you can leave anytime you choose. But this is my home.

If you know, have a guess! Try not to guess more than two at a time right away so that others can have a chance to play!!!

I promise to do a real post tomorrow! I have one in my drafts for J is for… but haven`t finished it yet!

ps: Well so far eight have gone, any suggestions on the others? Anyone can have a go!! If you have already had a guess, then have another! Thanks to those who have played so far!

Update: Only three left! Lets see who can get the last three. Some hints. No 8 was from a pretty old movie, I think it come out early 80`s and it features some awesome music and musician appearances! No. 12 is from a really new movie that I only saw last year and it stars some pretty famous actors! And no.15, well, a hint, Nicole Kidman is in it!

    Some of those sound so familiar, but I just can’t put my finger on them. I’ll be watching to see what people come up with.

     
  2. Natalie, 12. March 2008, 6:34

    Number 10 is Miss Congeniality! And 6 is possibly the Sand Lot?

     
  3. Jen, 12. March 2008, 6:48

    Is 3. Knocked Up?

    That’s the only one I have a slight clue about, aside from 10.

    I love this meme!!

     
  4. Amanda, 12. March 2008, 7:10

    Eee!

    2 is Empire Records.
    5 is Grease.

    That’s all I know, but I *might* be able to guess at 1 if no one else does.

     
  5. Jac, 12. March 2008, 8:54

    14. is Little Miss Sunshine!

    Man, I TOTALLY know so many of these quotes but I just can’t put my finger on them, hey…. nice work. THIS MEME ROCKS!

    4. ” Crème brûlée can never be Jell-O. YOU could never be Jell-O.” - Julia Roberts to Cameron Diaz in My Best Friend’s Wedding.

    12. “Besides, that whole see-through blouse, colored-bra thing… reads a little, you know, desperate, older gal, trying too hard. Don’t you think? Yeah, you want to make him work for it.” - Jennifer Lopez to rude hotel guest in Maid In Manhattan.

    Grrrr - I suck at these! I do like seeing the quotes and the movies people pick though :o)

     
  12. Lulu, 13. March 2008, 20:00

    Well another couple knocked off! Only three to go now! Hints have been added!

     
  13. Midori, 13. March 2008, 20:26

    Absolutely no idea about any of them apart from the Finding nemo one. I think I need to get out more/watch more movies that aren’t made by Disney!! ;-)

     
  14. Kirsten, 13. March 2008, 21:49

    Number 15 - would that have been Portrait of a Lady? I barely remember seeing the movie, but I have read the book and I was so made at Isabelle for staying!

     
  15. Lulu, 13. March 2008, 22:25

    Kirsten- I don`t know the movie Portrait of a lady…will have to check it out. But sorry, that is not the answer…..

     
  16. Amy Clarke, 14. March 2008, 18:16

    Under the Tuscan Sun is my favourite movie of all time. Period.

     
  17. tokenwoman, 15. March 2008, 15:07

    Number 12 is The Holiday, I love that movie too!

     
  18. Lulu, 15. March 2008, 15:51

    You got it tokenwoman!!! When are you going to start up your new blog??

     
  19. illahee, 15. March 2008, 22:58

  20. Lulu, 16. March 2008, 0:40

    Illahee, I watched eight many times with my dad when I was younger. It is one of his favourite movies and is now one of mine. I hadn`t seen it in about five or six years but watched it with him when I was home in Australia over Christmas!

     
  21. tokenwoman, 16. March 2008, 9:56

    I was going to give some sob story about maybe later, blah blah. But I’m writing a post now. Will just have to create the blog and then I’ll send you and the others a link :)

    Thanks for the inspiration, can’t wait to catch up when you’re back!

     
  22. Lulu, 16. March 2008, 13:13

    Tokenwoman! That is is great news! Yay!

     
  23. illahee, 16. March 2008, 21:33

    i’ve seen 8 many times, too. but it’s been a few (uh, maybe nine) years since i’ve seen it! LOL

     
  24. tokenwoman, 17. March 2008, 21:44

    You also made me go out and buy The Holiday on DVD :)

    In Japan and look how much influence you have on my life ;-P

     
  25. Midori, 19. March 2008, 1:52

    It is funny, it has been bugging me so much I ended up googling number 15! ;-) I won’t be spoiling it though but as soon as I saw what it was I thought “naruhodo ne”. You can take the girl out of Japan but not Japan out of the girl!! ;-)

     
  26. Deseray, 15. August 2008, 2:37

    Isn’t number 15 Moulin Rouge??? I think so but not sure and I know for a fact that 8 is Blues Brothers. I would have never guessed the one about the Holiday, have not seen that yet.
