I BLOODY HATE WORDPRESS. I JUST UPDATED THIS BLOODY POST WITH LINKS AND PEOPLE WHO GOT IT RIGHT AND IT TOOK ME 45 MINUTES WITH ALL THE LINKS AND NOW IT IS GONE. HATE. HAAAATE. SO, NO LINK LOVE FOR YOU NOW.
The delightful Mizz Enny tagged me some time ago and I never got around to actually finishing it because sometimes I am a bit rubbish about finishing drafts, but she posted this meme on the weekend and I can’t help but want to play myself. And now you can go and play Mick’s too, because he is a big old copycat and can’t help but want to do what I do… even if he did post his first…
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.
-
“Let’s never come here again because it will never be as much fun.” NPW, I could snog you, this quote is indeed from “Lost in Translation”
-
“Life’s funny. To a kid, time always drags. Suddenly you’re fifty. All that’s left of your childhood… fits in a rusty little box.” I think this is on most peoples favourite movies list – “Amélie” correctly guessed by Mick. If you have not seen this yet, do yourself a favour, and watch it tonight
-
“Hello. My name is Leonard Lowe. It has been explained to me that I’ve been away for quite some time. I’m back.” – Awakenings.
-
“Light the lamp, not the rat, light the lamp.” Brother Paul gets a gold star – “The Muppet Christmas Carol”
-
“You were thinking that you’ll never hear another piece of original music ever again. You’ll never read a book that hasn’t already been written or see a film that hasn’t already been shot.” Beef got this one (I think…) 28 Days Later. I nearly had a fucking heart attack the first time I watched this movie because I had been up boozing, floozing and smoking until 5am the night before. And it’s kinda scary.
-
“Six guys wearing electric orange… synthesizer… heavy percussion… electric guitar.” SHOCKED. Shocked that noone got this, especially my brother. It is after all, a place, where nobody dares to go… XANADU
-
“Learned a new word today. Atom bomb. It was like God taking a photograph.” Late entrant Batesy got this one correct – Christian Bale’s breakout role, “Empire of the Sun”
-
“Hey, psycho – we’re not gonna discuss this, OK, it’s over. Please get out of my Van Halen t-shirt before you jinx the band and they break up.” Lovely Lara takes this one out, it is indeed “The Wedding Singer”
-
“She could talk the hind leg of a mule. Hmm, wouldn’t that be a change around here.” (Tele-movie) Hohoho. Mick again with “Anne of Green Gables”, he CLAIMS his sister made him watch it… but I am dubious.
-
“Not only did we embarrass Marky Mark, we let down the Funky Bunch.” Mick… again! “Blades of Glory”
-
“No… but I heard Mr. Murphy, you know, the shop teacher?”
“Yeah?”
“Got his dick caught in a vacuum cleaner.” – And I thought I was the only one that used to watch this video then rewind it, then watch it, then rewind it, then watch it…. congratulations Uncle Beef. -
“Would ya just watch the hair. Ya know, I work on my hair a long time and you hit it. He hits my hair. ” Beef, Batesy and Brother Paul all got this one correct, “Saturday Night Fever”, probably a more depressing movie than you would think.
-
“That’s not a joke, that’s a severe behavioral disorder. I mean, the next thing you know, you’ll be wearing a bra on your head!” Beef and Paul got this one right too. Beef, are you secretly our cousin? “Weird Science”, which was indeed a tv show ten years later.
-
“What was that honey? It was BAD! It had no fire, no energy, no nothing! So tomorrow from 5 to 7 will you PLEASE act like you have more than a two word vocabulary. It must be green.” Far out, my boyfriend is SMRT. “The Fifth Element”, love, love, love.
-
“This is my family. I found it, all on my own. Is little, and broken, but still good. Yeah, still good.” Another one for Lara. Disney and Elvis and a feral alien. Fabulous. “Lilo & Stitch”
But whom is the winner…? You all put in a bloody stirling effort, and you are all winners in my eyes, but there also can only be one person that won… or sumpy like that… and he did after all solve them but not give them away, but gave more clues… and I am a bit confused, but I think the winner is Captain Beef, head on over to his blog to read about stuff like this
