I pulled this from the Byrne Unit, where I was not tagged. But golldarnit, I’m doing it anyway. Here are the rules:
Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
Post them for everyone to guess.
NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search or other search functions.
- “I’m very sorry for your loss. Your mother was a terribly attractive woman.”
Good job, B! This is from “The Royal Tenebaums,” one of my very favorite movies. - “I don’t want to be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me.”
This one’s from “The Departed,” which I went to see by myself (well, with a group of moms I didn’t know). I was very surprised to love it. - “Winter, slumbering in the open air, wears on its smiling face a dream… of spring. Ciao.”
C’mon, woodchuck chuckers! It’s “Groundhog Day“! - “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
I should’ve known Amanda would be the first one to get “The Princess Bride.” I couldn’t begin to guess how many times we watched that one together. - “You can never go home again, Oatman… but I guess you can shop there.”
Rodger‘s right! This is from “Grosse Point Blank,” the movie in which John Cusack plays an assassin who goes to his high school reunion. It’s a great movie. - “You smell like beef and cheese. You don’t smell like Santa.”
“Sheesh” indeed, little brother. This is from “Elf,” which I’m still waiting for Netflix to bring to me. - “Don’t ever touch me. … You smell like cabbage.”
If you haven’t seen “Dick,” you should run out and rent it right now. It’s my favorite political movie ever. - “You call this a happy family? Why do we have to have all these kids?”
Hannah got it! We’ll be watching “It’s a Wonderful Life” on Christmas Eve, as usual, and I will most likely laugh at this line even though I probably shouldn’t. - “We still got that meat lovers’ pizza in the trunk.”
Little brother Justin’s right! It’s “Tommy Boy.” I had a hard time choosing my favorite “Tommy Boy” quote, if that tells you anything about my level of sophistication. (“Shut up, Richard.”) - “I think you’ve had enough tea for today, let’s get you outta here.”
Someone would’ve gotten this one right away if I’d used “You’re a sad, strange little man.” It’s from “Toy Story.” - “The magic is unsanitary!”
This was another one that I was surprised to like. It’s from “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.” - “I like your nurse’s uniform, guy.” “These are O.R. scrubs.” “O, R they?”
Rachel? You’re my “Rushmore.” Way to go. - “It’s got raisins in it. You like raisins.”
It also doesn’t surprise me that Amanda got this one. We watched “Better Off Dead” roughly every other day between the ages of 11 and 13. - “Give me a scotch. I’m starving.”
Right again, Rodger! I have to admit, though, that by the time I got to “Iron Man” I’d run out of movies that I “love.” This falls under the category of movies I liked. - “And cause I was a gazillionaire, and I liked doin’ it so much, I cut that grass for free.”
Of course Jeni would know this was “Forrest Gump.” At least I didn’t use “Me and Jenny was like peas and carrots.”
