I just loved Sheri's movie quote quiz. And being the movie-freak that I am, I just had to do one, as well. So, Jon and I came up with some of our favorite movies and quotes. I decided to do one-liners to make things more difficult (or easier in some cases). I was going to wait a few days to post this, to give some down-time after Sheri's post, but Jon insisted I post it tonight. So here they are. The same rules apply. Please only make one guess per 24 hours so everyone gets a chance. Once they are guessed correctly, I'll highlight them with the name of the movie and who guessed it. Please don't cheat by googling/IMDBing the quotes. Have fun and good luck!
1. You look good wearing my future. Some Kind of Wonderful - Teresa
2. This is not my best day ever. Serenity - Marcy
3. There is no spoon. The Matrix - Becca
4. You can be my John G. Memento - Darrel
5. Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf-herder. The Empire Strikes Back - Jack
6. Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. Moulin Rouge - Beth
7. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time. Monty Python and the Holy Grail - Kim
8. What the hell are you doing out here, Fred? Fred, if you’re real, you better tell me right now! I am Legend - Marcy
9. The man who can wield the power of this sword can summon to him an army more deadly than any that walks this earth. This was a two-parter. Laura guessed it was a LOTR movie and Tim knew it was Return of the King.
10. In punishment for lack of an interesting pirate name, Peter shall walk the plank. Finding Neverland - Brian

#1 is "Some Kind of Wonderful" LOVE that movie!
Hey, is there a prize at stake? You know how competitive I get.
#5 is Empire Strikes Back
Teresa, that is my favorite movie ever... I wasn't sure if anyone else would know it! I'll think of something for a prize... and I'm not sure that Jack counts...has he even seen that movie?
OK - since I don't go to a lot of movies and I can't remember the dialogue anyway, I'm taking a guess here and saying that #9 has got to be from the Lord of the Rings because Jon wouldn't do one of these things without a quote from those movies and that's the only one that I think fits!! Now, if you're going to be picky and ask "which one," then I'll have to bow out and let someone else get that one!
Is #7 Monty Python and the Holy Grail?
Brian and I are working on a movie list too. I think it's fun.
#10, I believe, is from Finding Neverland.
OK, I took the easy one first, but then...I remembered:
#2 Serenity
I think I know all the rest, except #4 and it's buggin' me.

I don't know how that posted twice, sorry. I tried to delete one, but it didn't work.
Of course, my mom watches those all the time. I heard the lines in utero before I was born.
9 is Return of the King.
#3 is The Matrix, but I don't watch R rated movies! Aaron and Michelle had an edited version.
Great job everyone! The guesses from Laura, Kim, Brian, Marcy, Tim and Becca are all right!
Sorry, I didn't read all of Laura's comment - she should get the credit (I'll take partial for riding her coat-tails).
Okay - you both get credit.
You know I love you Laura, but technically, you didn't have the right answer!
I think I know number 6. I've never seen the movie all the way through, just bits and pieces, but vaguely remember that line. How long do we have to wait until we can guess again?
I think #6 is Moulin Rouge
Stink! I knew #6 was Moulin Rouge...but alas, I am too late.
Good job, Beth. Sorry Sheri - but there are 2 more!
Yeah, and neither sound familiar. I'm going to ask Ian when he gets home. He'll probably know...he knows everything.
P.S. I got your call the other night...but couldn't call back because I don't have long distance. You aren't crazy...I posted something then took it off. I have blog anxiety. It's hard to explain.
I believe that number four comes from one of my favs, Memento.
That's the name of that movie...I couldn't remember the name of it. I knew that the guy can't make new memories and tatoos them on himself. Thanks Darrel...it was bugging me.
Great job Darrel - I kept waiting for you to get that one. I think you're the one introduced that movie to us and it's one of our faves, too.
Only 1 left now...anyone can guess.
Can anyone cheat?
NO! But I'll give a hint if no one can guess it in the next few hours.
i know what it is but i cheated.
Okay - #9 is from a recent movie. I changed it to the full quote to see if that helps.
To answer your question Brian - yes, you can cheat. The question is, should you? I confess, along with Sheri, to cheating to get the answer to number 8 - but I won't post it. I was intrigued that nobody was getting it - and there are some movie buffs looking at this blog!
Yeah - I meant #8 is from a recent movie. Like, within the last 4 months.
That's why I can't get it. I never get to go to the movies unless I'm taking Joe to a kids movie he wants to see. I'm guessing it's not a kids movie.
OH, DUHHHH! It's I Am Legend. Sorry it took me so long to figure it out. I'm only human, it think. i could be a cardboard cutout, or a manequinn.
That was fun. We're doing it next.
Good job Marcy.
