Movie quotage

In an effort to get back in the mode of posting more often, I went back and revisted that movie quotes meme. This time I decided to focus on drama, since last time I did comedy.

I love drama (no, I don't work for TNT, but I do know drama). It encompasses so many things -- thrillers, action, small indie things about dysfunctional people, history, romance, all kinds of good stuff.

You know the drill: no cheating by Googling, looking on IMDB, or anything else. Name the movie the quote's from, and if you can, who said it. Be stalwart and trustworthy, don't cheat!!

1. We planned badly.

2. He says there's a storm coming.

3. You're obsolete.

4. I wonder if you realize that all of us ... that we're all citizens of a different town now.
The Sweet Hereafter [livejournal.com profile] feochadn

5. Is this what we laughingly call a plan?
Strange Days [livejournal.com profile] feochadn

6. I absolutely believe in God. And I absolutely hate the fucker.
Pitch Black [livejournal.com profile] movies_michelle

7. I'm just the guy they bring in to scare the other guy shitless.
L.A. Confidential [livejournal.com profile] greensilver

8. Are the flowers blooming in Houston?

9. 90 years ago, I was a freak. Today I'm an amateur.

10. What did you put in that sandwich?
The Fast and the Furious [livejournal.com profile] escritoireazul

11. All right, Beulah! Do you want to step outside?
Field of Dreams [livejournal.com profile] dettiot

12. That last hand nearly killed me.
Casino Royale [livejournal.com profile] sdwolfpup

13. I ambushed you with a cup of coffee!
Ronin [livejournal.com profile] sdwolfpup

14. My friend and me got a hankerin' for Switzerland chocolate and a good smoke.

15. I would rather be a ghost drifting by your side as a condemned soul than enter heaven without you.

I shall limit myself to just one:

Number 6 is Pitch Black.

Just one?!

12. Casino Royale, said by Bond
13. Ronin, said by DeNiro's character, I think.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay, someone else who knows Ronin!!!

#9. Time After Time. Jack the Ripper says it. (I can't believe I know one)

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, indeedy.

[identity profile] fenchurche.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
#9 is from Time After Time and was spoken by Jack the Ripper!

[identity profile] milady1844.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I wandered over here surfing friends of friends. :)

#2 is that from Terminator? At the end after the kid's taken her photo?

#6 is making me nuts. I know that line. Is it from Constantine? Grrrr.

#13 is from Ronin. Best car chase ever! Really one of my faves. DeNiro rocks.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Right on the first and third one, nope on #6.

[identity profile] trelkez.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
#7 - L.A. Confidential.
#8 - ... The Right Stuff? That doesn't sound right, but it was the first thing I thought of. *g*

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, on #7, but nope, on #8!

[identity profile] escritoireazul.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
10. What did you put in that sandwich?

The Fast and the Furious; Dominic Toretto to Mia Toretto

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Oui, oui!

[identity profile] dettiot.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
7. L.A. Confidential
8. Apollo 13
11. Field of Dreams

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeppers!

[identity profile] trelkez.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Aha! That's why I thought Right Stuff for #8. *g*

[identity profile] klia.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
#11 is Field of Dreams. Go Annie! *g*

Is #15 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?
ext_6848: (Default)

[identity profile] klia.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Gah, no 15 is Hero.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
No, you were right the first time on #15.
ext_6848: (Default)

[identity profile] klia.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Was I? Gah. Those two movies blend together in my brain, for some reason.

[identity profile] mystic-savage.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
My guess on #4 is Serenity, and on #14 is some kind of hostage-taking movie, none of which I can ever remember the names. (Thanks for the reminder about Time After Time -- one of my favorites!!!)

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I never thought of it, but 4 does sound like something from Serenity. It isn't, alas, but it does sound like it could be!

[identity profile] feochadn.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
4. is The Sweet Hereafter.

[identity profile] feochadn.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, Oh! Chocolate and cigars! Is #14 Open Range?

Sorry, came to this late...

I want to say that #5 is Mad Max BT, but that was "Plan? What plan? There ain't no plan." Is it Escape from New York?
Gah.
I hate work.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
You are right on 4, 14, but not on 5.

I hate your work too!

[identity profile] feochadn.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I suck.

Mad Max
Escape from wherever

Damn, got my post-apocalypticish, sorta future sci-fi movies all mixed up in my head

...it's Strange Days, right? Right? #5, that is...

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-10 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Indeed it is! Since I had that for a .sig line for so long, I hoped someone from the local gang would get that!

[identity profile] lamath.livejournal.com 2007-07-09 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Could #3 be from the second Matrix movie? I remember the newer model of agents saying that to Agent Smith.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-10 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, he could very well have said that -- I dont' remember a lot of the dialog to it, but it definitely has that Smith tang to it. But that's not the movie I'm quoting from!

[identity profile] mlyn.livejournal.com 2007-07-10 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Is 3 from Tron?

I want to know what 5 is from, that's some funny shit.

[identity profile] gwyn-r.livejournal.com 2007-07-10 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, not Tron. Jo got #5 -- it's from Strange Days, what Ralph Fiennes says to Tom Sizemore. ;-)

Darn, so close.

I just tried to call you; did you hear my message?
