A couple of memes for the weekend

[trinityvixen]

neo_leviathan started this, and, as it says, since I asked him questions, I have to post this here, too. Let's get asking!

"I want everyone who reads this to ask me 4 questions. Any 4, no matter how personal, dirty, private, or random. I have to answer them honestly. In turn, you have to post this message in your own journal and you have to answer the questions that are asked to you. (And note where you got the meme, and where that person got it from, and so on, and so forth.)"
******
1. Pick one dozen movies (that are ones that you have special feelings about.)
2. Pick a few lines of dialogue.
3. As people guess the film, strike out that entry.
4. (After the film is guessed, explain why that movie made the list.)


1. "You like that, huh? Go fuck your sister."
2. "Oh, ho ho! You sly dog! You caught me monologue-ing!"
3. "Well then, I see you've made your decision. Now, let's see you enforce it."
4. "I have ears like a fox, and eyes like a rodent."
5. "Hey. where's the real mayor, wha' happened? Somebody shot the mayor, but they did not shoot the deputy."
6. "If it bleeds, we can kill it."
7. "Hey there, Mr. Grumpy Gills!"
8. "One of these lives has a future. And one of them does not."
9. "You mix your laundry list with your grocery list, you'll end up eating your underwear for breakfast."
10. "I haven't been in television as long as you have, Killian, but I'm a quick learner. So I'm going to give the people what I think they want to see."
11. "Yeah, in the sense that they, uh, fell down, and, uh, got back up, and started eating each other."
12. "You have a power I don't understand and could never have."

Well, what are you waiting for? Get cracking! No IMDB-ing it either! That's cheating!

Man, I'm so bad at these. I *know* I know most of them, but I also know they're from stuff I haven't seen in years. More recent ones I can ID are:

2) The Incredibles
7) Finding Nemo
8) Oh, please.

I don't know which of the zombie movies 11 is, except that it's one with real live *dead* zombies rather than, say, 28 days later. Shaun or Dawn, I'd guess.

But knowing you, let's see. One has to be from Star Wars, one has to be from Alien/s/Predator, we've seen number eight, and I'm guessing one of the ones I don't recognize is movie-of-the-moment Blade: Trinity. I was hoping for Clue, UHF, something like that, or Indiana Jones, but nothing jumps out.

2) The Incredibles
6) Predator

I know (11) is a zombie movie but I know it's not 28 days, I don't think it's Shaun, but it could be from the first Dawn.

Aw, I suck at movie quotes. I don't really retain them very well.

4) Spider-man 2

Or actually, maybe not, unless this is a misquote: it's actually "I have ears like a cat, and eyes like a rodent," so maybe you're thinking of something else.

And some of the others definitely sound familiar, but I can't quite place them. Blah.

Ah yes, you're right. I got the line wrong. I guess I need to watch the movie a hundred billion more times. I picked it because it's really one of my favorites, and that line just creeped the crap out of me. It's so Raimi.

Man, I didn't think of any of those you mentioned at the end, the funny ones. Mostly, these aren't comedies, though the lines are funny from most things I picked. Next time around, comedies!

Ok, I'll answer the obvious #8 from The Matrix, since Carrie's response didn't get it crossed out.

Some of the others sound familiar, but nothing I can extract from my brain, I'm afraid.

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Well, I refused to give her credit because 'Oh please' isn't the name of the movie. Tell your girlfriend to check out this meme. She'd get some more!

[fairest.livejournal.com]

'Scuse me? After all the times you played that on your computer over and over TO CHECK IT AGAINST YOUR TRANSCRIPTION FROM MEMORY, I think "Oh, please," is plenty reasonable as a reaction.

Man. I recognize #5 but it's not coming to me.
11 has to be Dawn of the Dead, the new one, because it's the only zombie movie in which I recall flippant comments like that being made regularly.

#2 - Very familiar, but not sure
#6 - Predator
#12 - Return of the Jedi

#3 is from the Crow, said by Brandon Lee
#10 is from Running Man, said by Arnie.

[neo-leviathan.livejournal.com]

Grr, and duh to me #8 is Matrix

Ding Ding Ding! Give the girl a prize! I like how everyone knew it was a zombie flick but no one came close to guessing the right one. Sheesh, you know there are too many fun zombie movies out there when...

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Two movies with Ah-nold on the list. Go figure. Huzzah for getting "The Crow," too. Would have thought that would have been one that was pretty obvious. Then again, a more obvious quote would have been "Quick impression for you: caw, caw, BANG, fuck! I'm dead!" The best quote in the movie.

And kudos for the Running Man one. Man, what a classic. I wouldn't have included it only it was on my mind that day...

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Heh, I did *try* to make it a little less obvious than any of the movie taglines, but then again, I know the movie by heart so everything seems obvious to me!

Kay, ummmm four questions:

What do you think about most often?
What is one thing (posession etc) that you want the most right now?
And where would you draw the line at what you would do to get one?
Have you ever liked/had a crush on a member of the same sex?

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

1. I probably think about sex most often. I'm human, I do that.
2. Right now, I'd kill for a diet pepsi. The first week/fortnight without it in the house has gone all right, but I'm crushing for one right now...
3. Probably at going out and actually buying it. I'm lazy.
4. Yes, my first lesbian crush was on Michelle Pfeiffer in "Batman Returns." In real life, no.

rofl

yeah I think that would have been my answer to #1 as well
