Movies meme...

Okay, in lieu of doing my seminar reading (and sparking another internal rant about how misleading it is to call a course Interpreting Gender when it is in fact about feminism)...

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.
4. Italicize and bold when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. Looking them up (and then posting your answers) is, of course, cheating.



1. Yes, I've read a poem. Try not to faint. Serenity, guessed by evesharmony

2. You're a wanker, number nine!

3. Ten oughta do it, don't you think? You think we need one more? You think we need one more. All right, we'll get one more. Ocean's 11, guessed by torakowalski

4. It's just a book. No harm ever came from reading a book. The Mummy, guessed by zinfic

5. I try to learn your ways, understand your obsessions. But this baseball, it's so bleedin' boring, isn't it?

6. I always like going South; somehow, it feels like going downhill. The Two Towers, guessed by zinfic

7. Lizzy, listen, dont say a word, I was thinking a repeat of the other night; like fish and chips, early to bed... *gasps* Mr Bradbury! Hello... Mr Bradbury?... damn... Wimbledon, guessed by torakowalski

8. Put away some money so you can die someplace warm and don't ever touch it. Not for anyone, ever. Spy Game, guessed by sandinmyhair

9. Leon, somewhere in Libya right now, a janitor's working the night shift at Libyan Intelligence headquarters. He's going about doing his job... because he has no idea, in about an hour he's going to die in a massive explosion. He's just going about his job, because he has no idea that about an hour ago I gave an order to have him killed. You've just seen me do the least presidential thing I do. The American President, guessed by torakowalski

10. You know me. I'm the same as you. It's two in the morning and I don't know nobody.

7 is Wimbledon, 3 could be Ocean's 11? and I think 9 might be American President?

I'm impressed, I didn't think anyone would get Wimbledon :) Yes to the other two as well.

Hehe, Wimbledon was the only one I was sure of; it's possibbly shameful how many times I've seen that movie (in my defence, I live 30 minutes away from Wimbledon itself).

::jumps up and down::

Oh, oh, oh! Number 1 is from Serenity!

[bluflamingo.livejournal.com]

Yup!

8 is Spy Game?

[bluflamingo.livejournal.com]

Yep! It's like the ultimate expression of love in that film, when you know what happens later :)

#6 is from The Two Towers! And I'm pretty sure #4 is from The Mummy, right?

[bluflamingo.livejournal.com]

Yep and yep! So you'd think I would have guessed the right LoTR movie from yours, but clearly I had 2 Towers on the brain :)

[zinfic.livejournal.com]

Well, you were partly right (as people have pointed out to me). It was in the beginning of TTT as well.
