Everyone and their mother was doing this meme while I was curled up in a feverish ball this weekend, but better late than never, eh?

1. Pick 15 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 or other search functions.


1. "Speak for yourself. You may be a sinner, but I ain't yet had the opportunity."

2. "Either he's alive or he's dead, or the cops got him... or they don't." Reservoir Dogs, guessed by dazeebean

3. "...my tolerance for your smoking in the mansion notwithstanding, continue smoking that in here, and you'll spend the rest of your days under the belief that you're a six-year-old girl." X2, guessed by taleya

4. "I want drugs. I want massive amounts of drugs. I want the maximum legal limit of drugs." Waitress, guessed by praguematic

5. "You need to find yourself a girl mate. Or perhaps the reason you practice three hours a day is that you already found one, and are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You're not a eunuch are you?" Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, guessed by seimaisin

6. "You know what they say: People in glass houses sink sh... sh... sh... ships."
"I got to buy you a proverb book or something, because this mix 'n' match shit's got to go." Boondock Saints, guessed by moryssa

7. "Me? Kissing? A boy? You're mad. You're all bloody mad." Bend it Like Beckham, guessed by auroram

8. "It's strange how pulling a trigger is easier than playing the guitar. Easier to destroy, than to create." Desperado, guessed by taleya

9. "Can I make a suggestion that doesn't involve violence, or is this the wrong crowd for that?" Serenity, guessed by duckduck

10. "Wait. Wait! Your friend Anna thinks I'm cute? Your friend ANNA thinks I'm cute? Shit, I just blew - wait [looks at menu] - two eighty-five on the wrong girl!"

11. "I didn't say I was different or better. I'm not. Hell, I sympathize; I sympathize completely. Apathy is the solution. I mean, it's easier to lose yourself in drugs than it is to cope with life. It's easier to steal what you want than it is to earn it. It's easier to beat a child than it is to raise it. Hell, love costs: it takes effort and work." Se7en, guessed by greenstik

12. "I've hired you to help me start a war. It's an prestigious line of work, with a long and glorious tradition." The Princess Bride, guessed by moryssa

13. "I saw one, one time, that said the world was ending the next week. Then in the next week's paper, they said we were miraculously saved at the zero hour by a Koala-fish mutant bird. Crazy shit." Clerks, guessed by rockerlee

14. "Look, I don't care what the telly says, all right? We have to get out of here. If we don't they'll tear us to pieces, and that is really going to exacerbate things for all of us." Shaun of the Dead, guessed by auroram

15. "My easy-going nature is gettin' sorely fuckin' tested." Slither, guessed by auroram


Hmmm. Some are easy, some are hard. Good luck!

#9 is Serenity. 1 and 13 are soooo familiar, but I'm stumped.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Correct! =)

Hmmm. I should think you'd be able to figure out #1.

[duckduck.livejournal.com]

And I have, but I cheated, because I googled! Good quote, though. I'm glad that movie made your top 15.

[seimaisin.livejournal.com]

5. POTC: Curse of the Black Pearl
15 is also very familiar! But it's too early and I haven't had enough caffeine yet.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yep!

Hint: We saw #15 in the theater not too long ago.

[moryssa.livejournal.com]

#6 = Boondock Saints.
#12 = Princess Bride.

That's all I've got... although a couple of the others do sound familiar. :)

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Indeed. =)

[physis3141.livejournal.com]

2 - the usual suspects?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

right idea, wrong movie

[physis3141.livejournal.com]

dammit!

I _hate_ these memes, they end up hurting my brain because I KNOW that I know the quotes, but I can't get a clear picture in my head of who is saying them.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

I know. My brain is so full of so many useless things, that it's hard to sort through them all.

(hint: #2 is also a movie about a group of criminals trying to pull a heist)

[physis3141.livejournal.com]

I've been wanting to say snatch or lock stock and two smoking barrels, but I can't decide which one, because the movies are so mashed together in my brain.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

No and no. Wrong side of the pond. ;)

[physis3141.livejournal.com]

I am pretty sure now that #15 is Fargo. Or at least was uttered in some movie by Steve Buscemi.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Nope. The actor who says the line is a just a smidgen more a attractive than Steve Buscemi.

[rockerlee.livejournal.com]

13 is my favorite flick of all time, Clerks!!!!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

YUP!

[praguematic.livejournal.com]

4. Waitress?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yes! I'm so glad someone got it!

[auroram.livejournal.com]

#7 Bend it Like Beckham

I ♥ that movie.

#14 Shaun of the Dead

I ♥ that one, too.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Nice job! =)

[auroram.livejournal.com]

Wait. #15 isn't Slither, is it?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

YES!

[dazeebean.livejournal.com]

#2 is Reservoir Dogs!!!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yep! Finally!

[dazeebean.livejournal.com]

OMG! You mean no one knew it??! WOW, anyway, that's the only one I knew from the "unnamed" ones left. Some are at the tip of the tongue though, so good crop of quotes. I think I'm gonna put the answers up to my unquoted quotes;)

[taleya.livejournal.com]

#3 - X2, whereupon the professor bitchslappeth mightily :D
#8 - Desperado

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yep! I'm really glad someone got Desperado. =)

[greenstik.livejournal.com]

11 - Se7en

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Indeed. I'm glad someone got it! It's one of my top five movies.

[greenstik.livejournal.com]

One of my faves as well
