More movie quotage -- the all comedy edition!

[gwyn]

Because I am still seething at my awful co-worker, I decided to do all comedies (or rom-com) this time to cheer myself up. I've already used up a couple of my favorite comedies in the first movie quote meme, but I might just recycle them, who knows? Only you can figure that out! (Also, some of these are pure gimmes, because the movies are so well-known, you can't find a quote that everyone doesn't know by heart!)

A. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
B. Then pick one of your favorite quotes from each movie.
C. Post the quotes in your journal.
D. Have those on your friends list try to guess what the movie is.
E. Strike out the quote once it has been correctly identified and place the guesser's user name directly after the quote.

NO Googling, looking on IMDB, checking film sites, or other cheating. Use your own noggins!

7 is Victor/Victoria, 15 is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Eeeexxxcellent.

No. 8, About a Boy.

I can't believe I think I know one of these. Usually my mind goes blank.

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

You know what? I can't do it, either. I can remember the quotes on my own, when I flip through my video collection, but when I'm presented with them in print in others' LJs, my mind goes blank, too. But you got this one!

[crickwooder.livejournal.com]

#2 is The Incredibles, and #12 is Four Weddings and a Funeral!

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Got 'em!

[glinda-w.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty much movie-illiterate, but isn't 2 from The Incredibles? (if it isn't, it ought to be :) )

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

It is!

[crickwooder.livejournal.com]

Jinx!

(That was TOTALLY WICKED!)

[aadikah.livejournal.com]

Thirteen is from Adventures in Babysitting, I do believe.

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

It is indeed!

[gem225.livejournal.com]

#1 is Bull Durham. I love that movie. :-)

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Meeee too. It's so hard to pick one line from it; they're all good.

[movies-michelle.livejournal.com]

#6 is The Philadelphia Story.

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

I would have been very worried if you didn't get that.

[movies-michelle.livejournal.com]

Heh. I'm the same way about blanking on where quotes come from when they're disembodied like that.

I know the "hard boiled egg" one, too, but I CANNOT for the life of me remember. I can see Burt Lancaster saying it, even, but I don't remember it being a comedy, either. Do I at least get partial credit? *g*

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Bzzzt! Wrong part-answer, so no partial credit! But if you don't get one of the ones left, which isn't that one, I will be shocked and dismayed.

[movies-michelle.livejournal.com]

Seriously, I have this memory of a Burt Lancaster saying that. (I just looked it up and, no, that's not who it's attributed to at all, and yet...)

Is 10 Happy, Texas? I want to say 5 is Buckaroo Banzai, but that doesn't seem right.

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Yes, on both counts. THough I don't know if I should give you credit since you had to have hints and look things up!

[movies-michelle.livejournal.com]

Hey, I didn't look the stuff up that I actually gave you answers to! So I think I'm okay. *g*

[batdina.livejournal.com]

is 3 tootsie?

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Oui, oui!

[nikitangel.livejournal.com]

Is number four from When Harry Met Sally? I just keep hearing Billy Crystal's voice saying it!

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

It isn't, but that's actually a really interesting association, and I could totally imagine him saying it in that!
