Movies meme.

Jun 18, 2009 20:14

So I encountered--somewhere, can't remember where--a meme where one selects quotes from twenty of one's favorite movies and posts them, and people have to guess the movies. The problem is that I kind of hate watching movies and so know very few of them. I picked ten. There should be 20, though. Uh... pretend there are? Quotes are from Wikiquote and may be wrong.

  1. "Life is pain, Highness! Anyone who says differently is selling something."
  2. " 'We danced on the beach, kissed on the beach, and dot, dot, dot.' "
  3. "No, no, never mind the Chinese earthquake for heaven's sake...Look, I don't care if there's a million dead...No, no, junk the Polish Corridor...Take all those Miss America pictures off Page Six...Take Hitler and stick him on the funny page...No, no, leave the rooster story alone - that's human interest."
  4. "I sold flowers; I didn't sell myself. Now you've made a lady of me, I'm not fit to sell anything else."
  5. "Computer, define 'dancing.' "
  6. "The way I remember it, albatross was a ship's good luck, 'til some idiot killed it. Yes, I've read a poem. Try not to faint."
  7. "If there's one thing I've learned in all my years watching Earth -- is people aren't what they may seem. There are shopboys, and there are boys who just happen to work in shops for the time being."
  8. "It means that America has finally produced a genius who can play the minute waltz in 50 seconds!"
  9. "Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people don't shoot their husbands. They just don't!"
  10. "Obadiah, that's my real name. I've never told that to anyone before."


(edit: guessed quotes have been crossed out but not identified here, so as to permit latecomers to test themselves anyway.)
