Time's up! Yeah, so, as noted above, this one was definitely too mean. I'll try to be less obscure next time. Flipside, we had a quote that everyone got for the first time ever. Even Tai. Wow. Answers:
1. It's not hip-hop, it's Electro.
Shaun of the Dead, line spoken by that fat guy whose name I forget.
2. I beat the shit out of some kids today. But it was for a purpose. It made me feel good about myself. It was like I did something constructive with my life or something, I dunno, like I accomplished something.
Bad Santa, line spoken by Billy Bob Thornton.
3. Ted Nugent called. He wants his shirt back.
Ocean's Eleven (remake), line spoken by George Clooney.
4. Until next time, dear readers...Off the record, on the QT, and very hush-hush.
L.A. Confidential, line spoken (more than once) by Danny Devito. How does only one of you know this?
5. I'm a mental patient, I'm supposed to act up!
Twelve Monkeys, line spoken by Brad Pitt.
6. It can't rain all the time.
The Crow, line spoken by Brandon Lee. It's also a song in the movie. A little surprised only one person got this. I mean, I don't even like the movie, but I thought it was fairly well-known among people my age. Oh well.
7. You can't handle the truth!
A Few Good Man, line spoken by Jack Nicholson.
8. It's not a tumor!
Kindergarten Cop, line slurred by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
9. How's it going, royal ugly dudes?
Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, line spoken by Alex Winter. Be excellent to each other.
10. Ten minutes to Wapner. We're definitely locked in this box with no TV.
Rain Man, line spoken by Dustin Hoffman. The Wapner reference should be enough if you've seen it, really.
11. No, I said "'allo," but that's close enough.
Labyrinth, line spoken by that little blue worm thing. Yes, you can kill me for this one.
12. What is light without dark? I am part of you all!
Legend, scenery chewed by Tim Curry (as the freaking devil).
13. I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when my fear is gone I will turn and face fear's path, and only I will remain.
Dune, line spoken by Kyle Maclachlan. Yes, Compman, I gave you credit for this one.
14. Fra-gee-lay. Must be Italian!
A Christmas Story, line spoken by Darren McGavin ("It's a major award!")
15. There is not one brain among them...except one.
Raiders of the Lost Ark, line spoken by John Rhys-Davies (in reference to the Nazis and the evil Frenchman who was helping them). I'm still amazed this wallbanger made it into the final cut. Such a dumb line, such a great movie.
16. Heeeeeere's Johnny!
The Shining, line spoken by Jack Nicholson. No one said The Tonight Show, which makes me glad.
17. Harold, everyone has the right to make an ass out of themselves. You just can't let the world judge you too much.
Harold and Maude, line spoken by Ruth Gordon.
18. My life, when it is written, will read better than it lived. Henry Fitz-Empress, first Plantagenet, a king at twenty-one, the ablest soldier of an able time. He led men well, he cared for justice when he could and ruled, for thirty years, a state as great as Charlemagne's. He married out of love, a woman out of legend. Not in Alexandria, or Rome, or Camelot has there been such a queen. She bore him many children. But no sons. King Henry had no sons. He had three whiskered things but he disowned them. You're not mine! We're not connected! I deny you! None of you will get my crown, I leave you nothing and I wish you plague! May all your children breach and die!
The Lion In Winter, rant delivered by Peter O'Toole. Didn't want to dump this much text in, but I couldn't bring myself to cut the speech up. It's just too awesome.
19. You're tearing me apart!
Rebel Without a Cause, line spoken by James Dean (to none other than Thurston Howell III! How did he get off the island?)
20. I'll get you, my pretty...and your little dog too!
The Wizard of Oz, line spoken by Margaret Hamilton.
Bonus - Special Anglophilia Edition
1. I mean, they're sort of tall, and they don't talk too much, and they have fucking British accents, right? They talk like they're from England!
Gosford Park, line spoken by Bob Balaban (who is actually one of the two Americans in the movie. But hey, he's talking about British people!)
2. I saw something nasty in the woodshed.
Cold Comfort Farm, line spoken again and again by that creepy old woman. Yes, this was ultra-obscure.
3. I have just narrowly avoided having a buggering, and have come in here with the express intention of wishing one upon you.
Withnail & I, line spoken by Paul McGann. Otter-bait.
4. If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?
I would've accepted Monty Python's Flying Circus or Monty Python's And Now For Something Completely Different...hell, even just saying Monty Python would've done it. Nevertheless, only Meeple got this.
