Name the Film :)

DeVore

I'm gonna occasionally drop a bizarre but memorable quote in here and see who can name the film first

The rules (there always has to be rules!)
1. First to answer gets the prize: Nothing!
2. No editing your earlier posts to put the correct answer in, edited posts dont count (this is for Fun!)


Ok:
"Nothing in my hands, nothing up my sleeves, nothing on my plate except gravy. Yum.
I take a book, a Russian book, it must be a Russian book and I throw it in the air!..." *book turns into a dove*

Thats a little obscure but its a great movie and I'm sure someone knows it

lol, tell me that isnt your quote.

quote: ""Empire" had the better ending. Luke loses his hand and finds out Vader is his father. Han is frozen and captured by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. Just like in real life. All "Jedi" had was a bunch of Muppets."

Clerks

Is it "Scream 2" when they're discussing the merits of the sequel in the classroom before Sidney shows up at the door?

No Sico is right - its Clerks

Loomer

Heres a tough one - Classic cameo by a guy known more for his directing. Top marks for Film and actor playing Sid (sorry about length - but too good to leave out):

Sid: You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of the greatest ****ing scripts ever written in the history of Hollywood is? Top Gun.
Duane: Oh, come on.
Sid: Top Gun is ****ing great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a story about a bunch of fighter pilots.
Duane: It's about a bunch of guys waving their dicks around.
Sid: It is a story about a man's struggle with his own homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man. You've got Maverick, all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the ****ing line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew. They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.
Duane: What about Kelly McGillis?
Sid: Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no, no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole movie... He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's takin' a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the ****, what the **** is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him back from the gay way, so I'll do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it. Okay, now let me just ask you - I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and everything. Now, she just got divorced, right? All right, but the REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this gay fighting ****ing force, all right? And they're beating the Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they ****ing land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last ****ing line that they have together? They're all hugging and kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! ****in' A, man!

the celtic tiger

it sounds like something Jay would say in a kevin smith movie, but i'm probably wrong.


ps. I know it's sid and duane, don't point that out.

the celtic tiger

ok..... tarantino in Sleep with me.

Loomer

Fair play - I'm impressed (or did you use www.imdb.com )

the celtic tiger

no, i got it after thinking for a while.

Victor

Damn, I thought that was in either 'Short Cuts' or '2 Days in the Valley'.

Was this when Tarantino was chatting up an actress, by discussing whether she waxed or shaved (and which she did on her bikini line). What film was that in?

Ok, heres my next one... its a little harder

"Ok, enough of this running ****!"

Try it in a Scottish accent.

DeVore.

The bould Sean Connery in The Untouchables.

Damn it Jim, im a doctor, not a Beefy King !

llatsni

nice.

Karl Hungus

I'm guessing Mad Max...

Second is Akira? Not sure...

ThunderingMike

Try this one:

"Eat my spinning steel **** head!"

or

"Power without perception is spiritually useless and therefore of no true value"

The first one is from a classic, gory Australian film and the second is from a gory, classic Anime. Anyone guess?

---

ThunderingMike Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pitch and moment, With this regard their current turns away, And lose the name of action... Nows that's a sig.

Gratz membrane, pretty fast too!!

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

This one's a little obscure, but get-able:

"It's in the middle of absolute *insanity* that people pull out the most extraordinary qualities: resourcefulness, courage, self-sacrifice. It's a pity we can't beat the problems of peace in the same way. It would be so much cheaper for everybody..."

Brownie points for naming the character+actor playing him

---- "Eat my spinning steel **** head!"

Is that from BrainDead??

Lex_Diamonds

This is prolly wrong Occy but is it the Thin Red Line and Nick Nolties character saying it?

Im **** at quotes.

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Wrong Lex m8y...right genre but wrong film

Think posh English accent in a war-film

As I said...obscure, but get-able

Im going out on a limb, because it's so long since i saw it, but is it Michael Caine in Zulu ?

---

Damn it Jim, im a doctor, not a Beefy King !

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

No it's not plastic- Lex actually picked the *exact* genre, just the wrong film. Besides...colonial wars weren't really wars...just subjugation expeditions. Keep trying fellas

=Carpe Diem=

Da Bounca

hmmm.

sounds like a war film/black comedy type of thing, perhaps with the actor narrating parts.

is it an oldie?

Victor

Bob: Full Metal Jacket?

Changing call sign to SIERRA PAPA OSCAR OSCAR FOXTROT.

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Bounca- yes it's an oldie...not comedy though

Victor- Sorry to say it's not FMJ...though that is a f*cking great film- horribly underrated.


You're all going to kick yourselves...you really are...(well those of you who have seen it anyhow )

Miguel_Sanchez

It's not Paths of Glory is it?

---

I'm the Dude

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Nope- Paths of Glory is a bit *too* obscure a film...I'll rephrase- it's an obscure line from a classic film. I simply can't say any more without giving the game away...c'mon...someone's got to know this

=Moratorium Panacaeum in est=

Casablanca?

mewso

Sir John Mills in War and Peace?

Loomer

The friend must be Laurence Olivier so is it him as Dr Spaander in A Bridge to Far? I don't think its The Battle of Britain is it?

Draco

The Great Escape? Said possibly by Richard Attenbourgh?

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Goodness me, closer and closer and yet...!!

Right genre, and right character type of actor- Sir John Mills, Alec Guiness, and Olivier were all indeed friends, but who was the fourth friend who used to golf with the other three(and hate it)?

It's not the Great Escape- if you'll remember Draco- Bartlett is hardly one to eulogize about peace- he wants revenge- and if doing his duty allows him to achieve that revenge even at the expense of his life- then so much the better.

It's not the Battle of Britain- but while we're on the subject, here's another obscure hint: Richard Harris has a cameo in this film as a flying officer about 5 minutes before the line is delivered.

Brownie points for the actor and the character played remember

You guys are getting close- don't give up now!

Bob... is it The Guns of Navarone?

Friends help you move. Real friends help you move bodies.

Loomer

Damn you Bard The Guns of Navarone it is Richard Harris a dead giveaway and the Actor/Character is no doubt David Niven/Corporal Miller. Indeed a classic film

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Well done Bard- the film is the Guns of Navarone- and the character is Commodore Jensen, played by James Robertson Justice.

Didn't think the Richard Harris thing was a dead giveaway, but so it proved. A classic film as Loomer points out- the confrontation scene between Miller and Captain Mallory near the end is fantastic

Okay ... this one's easy... name the movie this quote is from and the actor/character who says it:

Gladiator is the film, Oliver Reed (in his last film *sniff*) is the actor, and the character is Proximo.

Heres a line from a film I think is hilarious I have masked the names as that would make it to easy:

Speaker1: Don't be so fast to thank me on this, Speaker2, because you're going to be naked on this one. It's on the line for you. People are going to be watching. Now you blow it, you're going down. You screw up, you're going to be hung out to dry. You drop the ball, you're going to be left twisting in the wind. If you embarrass this department, your pants will be dancing with figs. Is that clear?
Speaker2: Everything except for the dancing with figs part!

Here's another classic from one of my favourite actors:

No! No! Not if you tied my tounge to your tail-pipe and drove me eighty miles-an-hour naked across a field of broken glass.

C'mon peeps ezzy peezy
