1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies
2. Go to IMDB or some such 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

#4 sounds like the hotel dude in The Graduate, and I've seen #1 but can't think of what it is. Is #6 Ed Wood?

Bang on for #4, less so for #6. I'm trying to imagine how that would work.

Well, "fondle my sweaters" wouldn't be out of place in Ed Wood, but I doubt he'd say "taters."

Weird, I just watched #1 for the first time. As in, finished watching it an hour ago. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

How had you not seen it before? Granted, I drank the Kaufman Kool Aid somewhere around Malkovich, but still. I figured it would be kind of up your alley.

It was up my alley, taste wise. It was just never...convenient before. And then today it was.

How was camp?

Really good. Long though, you know? I mean, gorgeous weather, friends, great kids, outdoors, etc. But a lot of work for basically 24 hours a day, and it's nice to be back home resting up before the daily grind recommences.

Also, my iPod broke during staff week, so it was 11 weeks with practically NO music.

#6 is Chris Meloni in Wet Hot American Summer. Hilarity!

A friend in one of my book clubs actually did this once! "It's so...Dostoevskian!" In reference to a passage in Brothers Karamazov.

W: Yeah, it's very Kafkaesque.
S: Cause it's written by Franz Kafka.
^Did this I mean.

Yeah, the movie this is from contains loads of this stuff, although in this case, it's not stupidity but rather a weird kind of pompous overintellectual ignorance. This might actually be my favourite movie of the past ten years, but a lot of these qualify for that title.

Number 10 is Cary Grant in North By Northwest, screenplay by Ernest Lehman.
