MOVIE QUOTEATHON
I stole this from ScarBrooke, who posted this last week sometime. It's a movie quote meme.

Here are the rules I must follow:

* Pick 15 of your favorite movies.

* Go to IMDB and find a quote from each movie.
* Post them on your blog for everyone to guess.
* Fill in the film title once it’s been guessed.

These are your rules:

* Leave your guesses in the comments.
* No Googling or using IMDB search functions. Don’t cheat!
*Know-it-alls, limit your guesses to three movies. Save some for others!

-"I know you have received orders from our commandant, which he has received from his superiors, to dispose of the population of this camp. Now would be the time to do it. Here they are; they're all here. This is your opportunity. Or, you could leave, and return to your families as men instead of murderers." (From Schindler's List, guessed by Sheila)

-"It's for sure a white man's world in America. Look here: I raised that boy since he was the size of a piss-ant. And I'll say right now, he never learned to read and write. No, sir. Had no brains at all. Was stuffed with rice pudding between th' ears. Shortchanged by the Lord, and dumb as a jackass. Look at him now! Yes, sir, all you've gotta be is white in America, to get whatever you want." (From Being There, guessed by John)

-"Edwina's insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase." (From Raising Arizona, guessed by Tits McGee)

-"Fucking dipshit with a nine-toed woman." (From The Big Lebowski, guessed by Nick)

-"Hey, listen, I want somebody good - and I mean very good - to plant that gun. I don't want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his dick in his hands, alright?" (From The Godfather, guessed by Tracey)

-"Medium? Why sir, did you know that for a mere 25 cents more you can purchase a large beverage? And you know... I'm only telling you this because we're such good friends: Medium is really only for suckers who don't know the concept of value." (From Ghost World, guessed by mshellion)

-"If you were to try to assassination a king, sir, the... how shall I say it? The aura of royalty would cause you to miss. But, the president... [chuckles]...I mean, why not shoot the president?" (From Unforgiven, guessed by Nick)

-"Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw. Do I look like Mother Theresa?" (From Heathers, guessed by Sara)

-"Tito Puente's gonna be dead, and you're gonna say, 'Oh, I've been listening to him for years, and I think he's fabulous.'" (From Stripes, guessed by Brooke)

-"For us to live any other way was nuts. Uh, to us, those goody-good people who worked shitty jobs for bum paychecks and took the subway to work every day, and worried about their bills, were dead. I mean they were suckers. They had no balls. If we wanted something we just took it. If anyone complained twice they got hit so bad, believe me, they never complained again." (From Goodfellas, guessed by Doola)

-"What's your encore? Do you, like, anally rape my mother while pouring sugar in my gas tank?" (From Clerks, guessed by Doola)

-"You fake a stomach cramp, and when you're bent over, moaning and wailing, you lick your palms. It's a little childish and stupid, but then, so is high school." (From Ferris Bueller's Day Off, guessed by Sara)

-"There was this kid I grew up with; he was younger than me. Sorta looked up to me, you know. We did our first work together, worked our way out of the street. Things were good, we made the most of it. During Prohibition, we ran molasses into Canada... made a fortune, your father, too. As much as anyone, I loved him and trusted him. Later on he had an idea to build a city out of a desert stop-over for GI's on the way to the West Coast. That kid's name was Moe Greene, and the city he invented was Las Vegas. This was a great man, a man of vision and guts. And there isn't even a plaque, or a signpost or a statue of him in that town! Someone put a bullet through his eye. No one knows who gave the order. When I heard it, I wasn't angry; I knew Moe, I knew he was head-strong, talking loud, saying stupid things. So when he turned up dead, I let it go. And I said to myself, this is the business we've chosen; I didn't ask who gave the order, because it had nothing to do with business!" (From Godfather Part 2, guessed by Brooke)

-"Our government has apologized for Bryan Adams on several occasions!" (From South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, guessed by Katrocket)

-"You see, this profession is filled to the brim with unrealistic motherfuckers. Motherfuckers who thought their ass would age like wine. If you mean it turns to vinegar, it does. If you mean it gets better with age, it don't." (From Pulp Fiction, guessed by Jazzbonejoe)

I was about to curse Tracy out for guessing my two, but she missed the second one! That line is from Stripes.

The Moe Greene speech is from The Godfather Part 2.

I'm gonna guess the 2nd one is from The Jerk (Steve Martin).

Blogger Fella said...

The 9 toed woman one has got to be from Lebowski but I have no idea who said it. Walter probably.

Blogger Fella said...

The assassination quote is from the best movie ever, Unforgiven.

Will Munny is a stone cold bad ass.

"our government has apologized for Bryan Adams..." is from the South Park Movie.

His new album was released this week. We're still apologizing.

Blogger Ubermilf said...

Curses! I'm too late, and what's more, JOHN of all people beat me to it...

Blogger John said...

It's all part of my evil (say it like this... EEEEE-VEEEEL) plot to wreck your self-esteem, UberBabe.

Are the last two quotes from The South Park Movie and Pulp Fiction?

Blogger yournamehere said...

Ubie,

John beat you to being wrong. That quote is NOT from the Jerk. It sounds like it could be, but it isn't.

Blogger John said...

Oh NOW I remember where I heard those lines... another 70s movie. A much better one, in fact. That's from Being There, right? I love that movie! Can't believe I didn't get it right the first time.

Blogger yournamehere said...

john,

correct. One of the better movies of all time.

Blogger Ubermilf said...

I'm always beaten to being wrong.

dammit.

Blogger Scarlet Hip said...

John totally googled that line.

Blogger Unknown said...

Hmm, thanks. I hate to admit there are two movies here I've never seen but since you all are so ultra cool, I must now see them. (I say 'all' meaning 'maybe two of you' but I'm in sales so being fakey-nice is just second nature).
