Arthur: "No offense intended."
The Tick: "None comprehended!"
Etienne de Navarre, Ladyhawk: "Have you ever considered that this is what God intended all along?"
And a great line (paraphrased) from "Event Horizon," re: a gasped Latin phrase caught in video/audio from a ghost ship:
"There was a mistake in translation. It doesn't mean 'save us.'
It means 'save yourselves."
Brrr. Damnit, that's a LOT scarier!

May not be from the film but I love it anyway
Quizmaster to little old lady contestant: Which great opponent of Cartesian dualism, resists the reduction of psychological phenomena to a physical state and insists that there is no contact between the extended and the unextended?
Little old Lady: I don't know that!
Quizmaster: Well, have a guess.
Little old lady: Erm... Henri Bergson.
Quizmaster: Is the correct answer.
Little old lady: Ooo that was lucky, I've never even heard of him.

Movie quotes are cool, but no offence, dull after a while.
How about a twist (stolen from th GB OH MY GOD) each movie quote must finish the sentance of the former with the twist (NOT FROM GB THANK GOD!) of creating a story?
MEMORY: ALL THAT JAZZ: FOSSAY! (BOB Fosse that is)
" I cant make you a good dancer, but I can make you a better one."

Yes . . . because we couldn't have silly and frivilous repetition on something as somber and intellectual as Lit. If people kept droning on and on about unimportant things, what-EVER would happen to the "last person" thread?

Well, it does if you're an actor, or a singer trying to get through the National Anthem, or a pianist, or a student taking one of those high school tests or me, earlier today, trying to remember the exact "jug of wine" quote or who wrote the sucker. Sad to say, but I couldn't and wasted a fair slug of time looking it up because I'd forgotten it was from, The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.CharleyH said:Ok quote, and quote until hell freezes, it does nothing to remember and spill or gather lines, just as high school reguritation = vomit.

Even remembering that wouldn't have helped much because odds are I also wouldn't have recalled how to spell either Rubaiyat or Khayyam. To make the search even harder, I'd gotten the line turned around in my memory and kept searching for "a loaf of bread and a jug of wine." So I'd have saved a lot of time and energy if I'd been able to remember and spill out these line:
A Book of Verses underneath the Bough
A Jug of Wine, a Loaf of Bread--and Thou
Beside me singing in the Wilderness
Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow!"
or remembered the lines came from the, The Rubaiyat of our old Persian pal, Omar Khayyam, or how to spell Rubaiyat or Khayyam. Of course, at my age any kind of remembering is getting a tad tricky.
All that's just IMHO.

ps: Number one under the heading, movie quotes I wish I'd said:
Ralph Belamy: Fardan, you God damn bastard.
Lee Marvin: That's right, Mr. Grant, but I'm an accident of birth. You sir, are a self-made man.

Sorry if the thread has bored you, Charlie. I like movie lines a lot. It's just for fun.
I've played versions of the game you're suggesting. It's fun. We could have another thread for that if you wanted.
