ETA: Hmmmm, how about some hints…
So, when I first signed up for an internet connection on AOL, 12 years ago or so, the first thing that caught my eye was the Movie Quote Trivia Chat room on AOL. My brother and I were avid fans and I remember popping in videos and jotting down quotes to use since there was no www.imdb.com at that time LoL. I lost track of the chat room after a while but I still love trying to guess movie quotes so I was thrilled to find this meme on the Who could Ask for Anything More Blog . So here’s my try at it…
Here are the rules:
1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess (if you know them all, please don’t guess every one).
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. No Googling or IMDb-ing. That’s cheating and that’s no fun.
Here are my quotes:
Hint: The star of the movie in number one was an original cast member of Saturday Night Live and left in the middle of season two.
1. I don’t know if I oughta go sailin’ down no hill with nothin’ between the ground and my brains but a piece of government plastic.
Ok, no one got this one…its from Christmas Vacation, spoken by Cousin Eddie!
Hint: Coincidentally, the star of the movie in number two started on Saturday Night Live in the middle of season two (after the one above left).
2. We’re all very different people. We’re not Watusi, we’re not Spartans, we’re Americans. With a capital “A”, huh? And you know what that means? Do you? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We’re the underdog. We’re mutts.
My husband’s look alike…or so I’m told…this is Bill Murray from one of my faves…Stripes!
3. Well, I’m gonna get out of bed every morning… breath in and out all day long. Then, after a while I won’t have to remind myself to get out of bed every morning and breath in and out… and, then after a while, I won’t have to think about how I had it great and perfect for a while. Sleepless in Seattle, guessed by Fort Knocks
Hint: This movie isfrom 1994 and the male and female leads also starred in a movie together in 2006.
4. Oh come on, thirty more years of this, you get a tiny pension and a cheap gold watch.
Probably my favorite action movie of all time…Speed!
5. I’m shakin’ the dust of this crummy little town off my feet and I’m gonna see the world. Italy, Greece, the Parthenon, the Colosseum. Then, I’m comin’ back here to go to college and see what they know. And then I’m gonna build things. I’m gonna build airfields, I’m gonna build skyscrapers a hundred stories high, I’m gonna build bridges a mile long… Its a Wonderful Life, guessed by Fort Knocks
6. A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets. But now you know there was a man named Jack Dawson and that he saved me… in every way that a person can be saved. I don’t even have a picture of him. He exists now… only in my memory. Titanic, guessed by Staci
7. This is pure snow! Do you have any idea what the street value of this mountain is?
Whooops! Forgot to leave a hint for this one! The guy who said this quote actually sent me an autograph through the mail when I was into autograph collecting! This is from Better off Dead!
8. Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up, we’ll all get up, it’ll be anarchy. Breakfast Club, guessed by Queen of my Domain
9. Since you’re new here, I’m gonna cut you a break… today. So, why don’t you make like a tree and get out of here? Back to the Future, guessed by Queen of my Domain
Hint:In this movie the main star’s sister is played by his real life sister.
10. I don’t want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don’t want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don’t want to do that. Say Anything, guessed by Suzzcq70 from A Family Created.
Ok, so what I’m really looking forward to is someone posting a list on their blog so I can do the fun part and guess where the quotes are from

…any takers?
3. Sleepless in Seattle… “Should I call you Marcia? Or Dr. Fieldstone?” “Dr. Marcia.”
5. It’s a wonderful life. “You want the moon, Mary? I’ll give you the moon.” “I’ll take it.”
#6 is Titanic.
Thanks for playing along! Fun, huh. Unfortunatley, I don’t have any answers.
#9 is Back to the Future. I’m thinking on #8, I have it right there on the tip of my tongue.
8 is Breakfast Club, I knew I’d remember it once I hit submit.
I think #10 is Say Anything
