What's that line from?

[blocho]

This game is much like the other guessing games in this forum. Only with quotes instead of screen shots.

The rules are simple:

1. Post a quote from a movie.
2. Post another quote at least every 12 hours if nobody guessed it yet
3. NO GOOGLING. This game isn't about who can do a web search the fastest.

New game:

- If there's no new quote within 24 hours, anyone can start with another movie
- If someone answers correctly, that someone may post the next quote to guess!
- If nobody manages to get the movie right after 3 days, anyone can start with another movie


Here's the first quote:
"Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me."

[funkybusiness]

I like the idea. I have no idea what yer quote is from.

[blocho]

"Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it."

[tommy_leazaq]

Howard Hawks film?

[lampadatriste]

Or Cukor. Or the Marx Brothers. No idea, though.

The director is not a big name.

From the 1950s, on four ICM lists.

Harvey came to mind, I think I can see a giant rabbit,

Yes, a giant rabbit, or as its known in folklore, a "pooka."

Well done. Your turn.

Random guess: Some Came Running

[funkybusiness]

Berlin Alexanderplatz?

[Cippenham]

Both wrong it's. American film

[joachimt]

I just remembered I tried to start this game a few years ago. We didn't get very far though.

[Local Hero -- aka MestnyiGeroi]

Another random guess: From Here to Eternity

[Cippenham]

Another random guess: From Here to Eternity

Last guess wrong, sorry have been busy, new clue it's a classic Western 1960s vintage

[blocho]

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance?

Another quote might be helpful

[weirdboy]

Random guess: Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia

[Cippenham]

Both wrong, other quote

sometimes the dead can be more useful than the living.

[blocho]

Hmm, sounds like a spaghetti western. A Fistful of Dollars?

Correct, your turn!

[sheikofhyrule]

Ummm A Fistful of Dollars is not an American film.

But we have several response on the screenshot quiz threads.. It's a proof that we use our eyes more than ears while watching the film..

[Armoreska]

I guess it should have been it's set in Merica.

[weirdboy]

Buckaroo Banzai

EDIT: I should use the proper title to the film:

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension

[blocho]

Well done.

[weirdboy]

"If these tests could be converted into eggs, it would be enough to feed a city the size of St. Louis for more than two years, on a two egg per person per week basis."

[weirdboy]

American film. 70's.

[blocho]

American film. 70's.

We need another quote.

[Cippenham]

Ummm A Fistful of Dollars is not an American film.

Sorry about that misrepresentation, quite right.

[Cippenham]

"If these tests could be converted into eggs, it would be enough to feed a city the size of St. Louis for more than two years, on a two egg per person per week basis."

Sounds like some kind of weird documentary or mockumentary maybe

[weirdboy]

"Only six of these cameras were ever made. Only five of them ever worked. We have four of those."



I know at least one member of this forum who should know exactly where that quote is from.

[joachimt]

Only one member?

[funkybusiness]

uuuh Real Life?

[Armoreska]

uuuh Real Life?

Correct. Your turn.

Spoiler: click to toggle

yeah I googled it

[joachimt]

I think this game would be more fun, if the quotes and movies were a bit more well known. Sure, most people have heard of the last two movies, but they are not seen by most of us. Real Life only has 595 checks.

[weirdboy]

There is a member of this forum named after the camera from the movie, at least.

How about from now on, the first post includes two quotes from the movie? That might make things a little easier.
