spankerellaHere's how it plays... There are 12 movie quotes from 12 different flicks. See if you can guess them. First come, first served. The ones in bold are still un-guessed, but checking the comments to make sure someone hasn't beat you to it isn't a bad idea either.
Game on....
1) "Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills."
Napoleon Dynamite.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
luminaux guesses right. I just can't get enough of him. I could watch him dance everyday EVERYDAY.

2) "Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
Animal House.mtlwritermom is right. If you haven't see this flick... shame on you! It's the ultimate party movie. "Toga! Toga! Toga! Toga!" I love John Belushi. This film is proof that he was a bit of a comic genius. Said by Dean Wormer to Flounder.
*
3) "Let me just observe that all histories are against you. All stories, prose, and verse. I don't think I ever opened a book in my life which did not have something to say on womens' fickleness."
"But they were all written by men."
Yes,fionuir, it is from Persuasion. Jane Austen nerd, remember? I like this bit of conversation because I find it to be too true. History is colored by those who have written it. Conversation between Captain Harvile and Anne, respectively.
*
4) "Hello, you've reached the winter of our discontent."
Reality Bites.mtlwritermom is right again. I just love this movie. I know so many guys who are like Ethan Hawk's character Troy... only not as dirty-hot. He's snarky, and snark is always appreciated. Said by Troy, naturally.
*
5) "Yeah, well, I like Joey Ramone 'cause he's tall and handsome. He looks like a poem to me."
selanay recalls Rock'n'Roll High School rather well. A campy movie about rebellion and the Ramones. I love the Ramones. I grew up on the Ramones. Dee Dee's all wet in his clothes in the shower. He was such a punk rock cutie. Riff says this to Kate.
*
6) "Ted Nugent called. He wants your shirt back."
katieowrites says Ocean's Eleven. Too true. I just LOVE this movie. I kinda like George Clooney also, even though he's still George Clooney in just about (please recall that I said 'just about' before you Clooney fans jump all over me) every movie he's in. He and Brad Pitt have SCARY chemistry. I'm still holding out that that's why Brad and Jenn broke up, so Brad could date George instead. Now THERE'S a Hollywood power couple. LOL. Line said by Danny Ocean to Rusty in response to Rusty's quip... "I hope you were the groom." as Danny gets released from prison in a tux.
*
7) "Oh, fuck me, I love Keats."
katieowrites says Bridget Jones' Diary. And that's correct. First one. I like funny swearing. Especially about poetry. Hugh Grant just looks so funny rowing a boat and swearing with a cigarette in his teeth. Said by Daniel, of course.
*
8) "What are you guys doing?"
"Talking about penises."
"What flavor?"
Foxfire. I knew ifprin_buttercup saw this one she would get it. If you are an Angelina Jolie fan and you have not seen this... for SHAME! It's a very strange 'girl power' movie. It came out in the late 90s. Not many people saw it. This bit was said between Maddy and Violet when she sees Violet instructing Rita on proper condom application with a cucumber in the supermarket.
*
9) "You say that so often. I wonder what your basis for comparison is."
Labyrinth.mtlwritermom gets another. I love David Bowie. I love Jareth. Jareth is so droll and naughty without meaning to be. Plus... the spandex pants. Labyrinth is one of my childhood films. I still get caught up in it. Obviously, Jareth said it.
*
10) "But see? That's just the point. It can't stop at once because it's in you, and you can't stop something that's inside you."
mtlwritermom, you are correct once again. It is Pleasantville. I just thought the screenplay for this movie was brilliant. I like that quote because I think it's too true. You can't stop the essence of who you are. This was said by Bud (David).
*
11) "But it's only a story."
"That's what I'm talking about. The ones you read are safe."
The Neverending Story is correct,luminaux. I have gotten lost in a book so many times. I know the feeling of it. Plus, it's one of those movies from my childhood. I have several of those that will be showing up as I do this more. This was between Bastian and the shopkeeper.
*
12) "The spark of his life is smothered in shite. His spirit is gone, but his stench remains. Does that answer your question?"
mtlwritermom, yes, it is from A Knight's Tale. I just think it's funny. Every time I watch the film and hear those lines, I giggle. Just like "... Defender of his enormous manhood...", that gets a laugh. Yes, Roland does say the quote in question at the start when Sir Ector has died and crapped himself.
*~*~*
Searching these out is fun for me.
