I hope you're not picking quotes from some obscure 1940s film that is in nobody's list here at listal. tsk tsk tsk

Preston Sturges obscure, sir? Pshaw! And thank you for reminding me to add it to my Watched list. If you check the dvd list, seven of us own it (just nobody playing). I'll shoot for something less esoteric (*sigh*) next time.

Your turn...

*goes to look up 'esoteric'

ah yes, indeed. do try for less esotrism next time. ;)

quote: "If you find yourself alone, riding in the green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled. For you are in Elysium, and you're already dead!"

correct. sorry for the late response. go ahead, chib

Swiss Family Robinson! Ha! Just kidding.
The Graduate

Quote:
Gentlemen, Chicolini here may talk like an idiot, and look like an idiot, but don't let that fool you: he really is an idiot. I implore you, send him back to his father and brothers, who are waiting for him with open arms in the penitentiary. I suggest that we give him ten years in Leavenworth, or eleven years in Twelveworth.

sounds like something the Marx Brothers would say. Am i close?

Duck Soup?

You are correct.

Here ya go:

Quote:
My daughter? Kate? I thought she was in the basement splitting photons.

Here's a second quote to narrow it down:
Do your parents KNOW you're Ramones?

For sanity's sake, I'll keep playing - It's Rock 'n' Roll High School.

"Look at this, OK? I want you to remember this face. This is the guy behind the guy behind the guy. "

lol nice one, voxy!

Christmas Vacation. loved that line!

"Corporate Accounts Receivables Nina Speaking Just A Moment... Corporate Accounts Receivables Nina Speaking Just a Moment... Corporate Accounts Receivables Nina Speaking Just a Moment..."

Voxy, give us a hint..

Quote:
Well, what did you expect in an opera? A happy ending?

Isn't it that bugs bunny episode with the Opera show?


Here is mine:

"Always remember that one day all this drug monkey business will be legal. They won't leave it to people like me... not when they finally figure out how much money is to be made - not millions, f**king billions. Recreational drugs PLC - giving the people what they want... Good times today, Stupor tomorrow. But this is now, so until prohibition ends make hay whilst the sun shines."

It's not a 'bugs bunny episode', it's a theatrical short film called 'What's Opera Doc?'.

it may be, but I too thought of that bugs bunny episode. it's a famous quote. its first time elmer fudd defeated bugs bunny.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What's_Opera,_Doc%3F

what's this 'theatrical short film' you're talking about?

nobody taking a shot at the last quote?

ok, another quote, from same film:

(phone conversation between two people)

'I've got an idea. Why don't you come round for breakfast? I'll squeeze some orange juice and grind some coffee and we can talk about this like adults. How does that sound?'

'Sounds very hospitable.'

'Do you know where I live?'

'No.'

'Well f**k off, then.' (hangs up the phone)

All of the Bugs Bunny 'episodes', were originally produced for the big screen. You know, animated shorts (short for short film) shown before the feature film(s). A generation or more only know these shorts from seeing them on television, hence 'episode' I guess. You did read the wiki entry?

Voxy, that's an easy one? lol

seems like a generic sentence, why don't you have a tatoo, but only clue is that a hick probably says it, hence the typo 'why come'.

a hint, perhaps?

IDIOCRACY

A tough one because it was barely released/seen

Quote:
Tell our story Christian, that way I'll-I'll always be with you.

Mmmmm...Evil Dead III: Army of Darkness

Quote:
Settle down, are you kidding? I'm at the top of my game! I'm right up there with the big dogs! Girls, come on. Leave the saving of the world to the men? I don't think so.

why that would be The Incredibles, of course :)


- Mr. Kazu sent me, premium fantasy. My stockings. 'Lip' them. 'Lip' my stockings. Yes, please, 'lip' them.

- What?

- 'Lip' them. HEY! 'Lip' my stocking!

- Hey? Lip them? Lip them? What?

Ah! I had a epiphany.

Lost in Translation

Quote:
You're not as smart as your brother, Joe. He sees Stumpy here sittin' around the corner locked in with you... and if that isn't plain enough, I'll tell you why. If any trouble starts around this jail, before anybody can get to you you're gonna get accidentally shot.

Rio Bravo.


"Get down. I don't want to expose my daughter to any graphic violence - she gets enough of that from the TV and media".

A clue, then: Arnie. Twice.

Almost thought Commando, but no the 'twice' is a dead give-away: The Sixth Day

Quote:
This is more embarrassing than the time you started cleaning your beans at Don Knotts' Christmas party.

Scooby Doo...?

F.A.B.

Is that a yes or a no? :-s Or are you quoting Thunderbirds?

"Don't cross the streams!"

It's a yes (and I am quoting Thunderbirds, but I'm not 'quoting' them).

Oh, and that would be Ghostbusters

Quote:
No harm done! The man's all right! This was for a werewolf! No problem! Calm down! Take it easy! I'm a doctor! I know where I'm going!

That would be Love at First Bite.

"The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous"

(answer can be found within the quote)

V for Vendetta (loved that quote)

Here's one of my favorite monologues ever: (kids may want to plug their ears, lots of cuss words are found below, but to bleep then would take away the effect - and i'd probably run out of asterixes )

"Fuck me, fuck you, fuck this whole city and everyone in it. Fuck the panhandlers, grubbing for money, and smiling at me behind my back. Fuck the squeegee men dirtying up the clean windshield of my car. Get a fucking job! Fuck the Sikhs and the Pakistanis bombing down the avenues in decrepit cabs, curry steaming out their pores, stinking up my day. Terrorists in fucking training. SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Fuck the Chelsea boys with their waxed chests and pumped up biceps. Going down on each other in my parks and on my piers, jingling their dicks on my Channel 35. Fuck the Korean grocers with their pyramids of overpriced fruit and their tulips and roses wrapped in plastic. Ten years in the country, still no speaky English? Fuck the Russians in Brighton Beach. Mobster thugs sitting in cafés, sipping tea in little glasses, sugar cubes between their teeth. Wheelin' and dealin' and schemin'. Go back where you fucking came from! Fuck the black-hatted Chassidim, strolling up and down 47th street in their dirty gabardine with their dandruff. Selling South African apartheid diamonds! Fuck the Wall Street brokers. Self-styled masters of the universe. Michael Douglas, Gordon Gekko wannabe mother fuckers, figuring out new ways to rob hard working people blind. Send those Enron assholes to jail for FUCKING LIFE! You think Bush and Cheney didn't know about that shit? Give me a fucking break! Tyco! Worldcom! Fuck the Puerto Ricans. 20 to a car, swelling up the welfare rolls, worst fuckin' parade in the city. And don't even get me started on the Dom-in-i-cans, 'cause they make the Puerto Ricans look good. Fuck the Bensonhurst Italians with their pomaded hair, their nylon warm-up suits, their St. Anthony medallions, swinging their, Jason Giambi, Louisville slugger, baseball bats, trying to audition for the Sopranos. Fuck the Upper East Side wives with their Hermes scarves and their fifty-dollar Balducci artichokes. Overfed faces getting pulled and lifted and stretched, all taut and shiny. You're not fooling anybody, sweetheart! Fuck the uptown brothers. They never pass the ball, they don't want to play defense, they take five steps on every lay-up to the hoop. And then they want to turn around and blame everything on the white man. Slavery ended one hundred and thirty seven years ago. Move the fuck on! Fuck the corrupt cops with their anus violating plungers and their 41 shots, standing behind a blue wall of silence. You betray our trust! Fuck the priests who put their hands down some innocent child's pants. Fuck the church that protects them, delivering us into evil. And while you're at it, fuck JC! He got off easy! A day on the cross, a weekend in hell, and all the hallelujahs of the legioned angels for eternity! Try seven years in fuckin' Otisville, J! Fuck Osama Bin Laden, Al Qaeda, and backward-ass, cave-dwelling, fundamentalist assholes everywhere. On the names of innocent thousands murdered, I pray you spend the rest of eternity with your seventy-two whores roasting in a jet-fuel fire in hell. You towel headed camel jockeys can kiss my royal Irish ass! Fuck Jacob Elinsky, whining malcontent. Fuck Francis Xavier Slaughtery my best friend, judging me while he stares at my girlfriend's ass. Fuck Naturelle Riviera, I gave her my trust and she stabbed me in the back, sold me up the river, fucking bitch. Fuck my father with his endless grief, standing behind that bar sipping on club sodas, selling whiskey to firemen, cheering the Bronx bombers. Fuck this whole city and everyone in it. From the row-houses of Astoria to the penthouses on Park Avenue, from the projects in the Bronx to the lofts in Soho. From the tenements in Alphabet City to the brownstones in Park slope to the split-levels in Staten Island. Let an earthquake crumble it, let the fires rage, let it burn to fucking ash and then let the waters rise and submerge this whole rat-infested place."

anyone need a hint? I thought this long monologue would be a snap, judging by all the hints found throughout. His girlfriend's name is 'Naturelle', he hints at spending seven years at Otisville penitentiary, and his dad owns an Irish bar in the Bronx.
