1. Pick 20 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb, and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. No Googling/using IMDb search functions.



1. OK cowboy, I don't know what your trip is, but if this is some kind of a sick game... If you fuck with me, in any way, I will rip each and every appendage from your body, starting with your dick. Capice? Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, guessed by sillyzilly2k.

2. There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then: a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can't. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bullshit word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a shit. Shawshank Redemption, guessed by webbers.

3. I've been coming here every summer of my adult life, and every summer there she is oiling and lotioning, lotioning and oiling...smiling. I can't take this no more! The Sandlot, guessed by blahblahologist.

4. I'm here to kick your ass, and you know it, and everybody here knows it, and above all, you deserve it. In fact, I think it's safe to say that this party is about to become a historical fact. Some Kind of Wonderful

5. I only wish this was the army. So that I could have you shot...twice! Blind Date

6. Okay, on one end of the spectrum you've got homo, and on the other you've got hetero. Then there's me, way the fuck over here! Hiding Out

7. A: I don't think your parents will ever ask me to babysit again.
B: If they do, I'd ask them for a buck more an hour. Adventures in Babysitting, guessed by romanticalgirl.

8. Brand, God put that rock there for a reason...and, um...and I don't think we should move it. Goonies, guessed by ardor_patientia.

9. They always seemed what? They always seemed really great is what they always seemed. They picked up where your precious Echo left off, and you're sitting around complaining about no more Echo albums. I can't believe you don't own this fucking record. That's insane. Jesus. High Fidelity, guessed by webbers.

10. Praise Jesus? That's fucking pushing it! This shit's about as far from God as shit can get! Either of you ever seen anything like that? You even heard of anything like that? Huh? Me neither...and I watch Animal Planet all the fucking time! Slither

11. ...and the beauty part is the babies don't even have to listen 'cause they're asleep! You know, I wish my parents played Mozart when I slept because half the time I don't even know what the heck anyone's talking about! The Incredibles, guessed by eglow23.

12. No, no. No, see, this is a really shit idea. You know why? Because it's really obviously a shit idea. 28 Days Later

13. [She] leans back against her chair, folds her hands in her lap, and looks at him. In the sweetness of the air, in the light of the garden, [she] looks at him. She looks at him...She looks at him... A Very Long Engagement, guessed by blahblahologist.

14. ...you know if someone came in here, they wouldn't believe what they'd see? You and me with long faces plunged into despair because we find out a man didn't kill his wife. We're two of the most frightening ghouls I've ever known. Rear Window, guessed by fearlessfan.

15. I have to leave you now. I'm going to that corner there and turn. You must stay in the car and drive away. Promise not to watch me go beyond the corner. Just drive away and leave me as I leave you. Roman Holiday, guessed by holy_whatever.

16. They're very odd people, you know. When they're young, they have their teeth straightened, their tonsils taken out and gallons of vitamins pumped into them. Something happens to their insides! They become immunized, mechanized, air-conditioned and hydromatic. I'm not even sure whether he has a heart. Love in the Afternoon

17. My dear, never confuse efficiency with a liver complaint. Mary Poppins, guessed by holy_whatever.

18. A: I could never make a good pot roast.
B: You need good beef. Argentina has great beef: beef, and Nazis. While You Were Sleeping, guessed by pathstotread and cashewdani.

19. You're not gonna blame me because the phone went dead. I'm not the phone company. Nobody's the phone company anymore! Night of the Comet

20. Young lovers seek perfection. Old lovers learn the art of sewing shreds together and of seeing beauty in a multiplicity of patches. How to Make an American Quilt

The only way I recognized immediately was #13 - A Very Long Engagement!

#3 sounds SO FAMILIAR though and I'm probably going to kick myself when I figure out what it's from.

Heh. Yeah, I have the Michele quote when she's talking about Heather at the end of the film on my FB page, and my friend and I had a quote-off. HIGHLY QUOTABLE.
