I know I never do these things, but I actually find this one fun:
1. Pick 20 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDB and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them in a note for everyone to guess.
4. Bold when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDB search functions.
1. -Now look, darling, how did he die?
-Oh, Mortimer, don't be so inquisitive. The gentleman died because he drank some wine with poison in it.
- Well, how did the poison get in the wine?
- Well, we put in wine because it's less noticeable. When it's in tea it has a distinct odor. (Arsenic and Old Lace,

2. If a dragon falls in the forest and nobody gets to hear about it, does it make a thud? (probably too hard, but I still love it)
3. -In psych tests on deep space, I ran a number of sensory deprivation trials, tested in total darkness, on floatation tanks - and the point about darkness is, you float in it. You and the darkness are distinct from each other because darkness is an absence of something, it's a vacuum. But total light envelops you. It becomes you. It's very strange... I recommend it.
-What's strange, Searle, is that you're the psych officer on this ship and I'm clearly a lot saner than you are. (Sunshine,

4. -It's no crime to be alive!
-No, my dear, sometimes it's a great inconvenience. The living can be hurt.
5. Damn you! You little prying Pandora! You little demon - is this what you wanted to see? Curse you! You little lying Delilah! You little viper! (The Phantom of the Opera,
myhobbitpippin )
6. Who is that? Nietzsche? So you stopped talking because of Friedrich Nietzsche? Far out. (Little Miss Sunshine,
miss_bushido )
7. The bounce has gone from his bungee. (A Close Shave [close enough, haha],
happysharkie )
8. It's not your dick that's too big for French condoms. It's your ego that's too big for French condoms. And... and Italian, too.
9. -You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you.
-You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die. (The Princess Bride,
miss_bushido )
10. Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. (Monty Python and the Holy Grail,
miss_bushido )
11. What's this, then? "Romanes eunt domus"? People called Romanes, they go, the house? (The Life of Brian,
happysharkie )
12. -What d'you call the middle of a song?
-Gee, I dunno, the BRIDGE!!
13. WHAT is going on? Mr. Pottery class... nice to meet ya. (My Big Fat Greek Wedding, miss_bushido)
14. There's that word again; "heavy". Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the earth's gravitational pull? (Back to the Future,
miss_bushido )
15. Yorick, poor, alas! (The Reduced Shakespeare Company,
miss_bushido )
16. There were no F names in the Bible, so Ma named him Frankincense because he smelled so sweet.
17. -Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
-I don't know. Were you thinking, "Holy shit, holy shit, a swordfish almost went through my head"? If so, then yes.
18. There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane? (Airplane!
happysharkie )
19. Out of order? FUCK! Even in the future, nothing works! (Space Balls,
miss_bushido )
20. Only one thing in the world could've dragged me away from the soft glow of electric sex gleaming in the window. (A Christmas Story,
miss_bushido )
Except I only got to 11, because I have to go. Tootles!
