Movie quotes - the results!

1. "Doncha...all the...my dad." Singin' in the Rain - from the fabulous number "Make 'Em Laugh" sung and danced by the largely forgotten yet amazing Donald O'Connor. Petsnakereggie got it right first. (Probably because he hears me sing it incessantly.)

2. "They mostly come out at night. Mostly." Aliens. As Davedujour called it, a chilling line delivered by Newt. (Who remembers Newt's real name? Hunh??)

3. "She'll jump." The Court Jester - a really obscure yet hilariously-delivered line from Danny Kaye. Lucyruthe gets first dibs here.

4. "...and dream of large women." The Princess Bride. Somewhat obvious, but I love the line. As does FairOriana.

5. "Oh, you mean DOGS. Yeah, I like DOGS." Snatch - not nearly as funny without the accent. Gingerpook called it first.

6. "I didn't see you." "Your aim would suggest otherwise." Ever After, a charming piece of fluff. Fayde obviously likes it too!

7. "What you currently have IN YOUR MOUTH is art!" The Iron Giant, the first declaration of brilliance from Brad Bird. Joshuwain obviously loves the junkyard scenes as much as I do.

8. "These guys are about as much fun as a tax audit." The Abyss My faith in my friends is restored by Chebutykin.

9. "The spiders want me to tap dance." HP: Prisoner of Azkaban. I'm surprised not more people jumped on this one, as it was the funniest line in the movie. Hedgiewan agrees.

10. "For a girl who's lived this weekend, it sure doesn't show through all those curls." Thoroughly Modern Millie. I was surprised anybody got this one, as it's from a little known movie musical. Fayde and I were clearly damaged in the same ways as children.

Yep, Hicks reads the trophy. And then Ripley is calling her by her name as she wipes her face and talks to her. And Newt says, "Newt. The only person who calls me ____ is my brother."

Very close - it rhymes with Susie.

It's Casey. Or KC. Whatever, that's how it's pronounced.

Dude! I must have missed this one!

#8 is The Abyss. I'm disappointed in our friends.

Thank god! I was worried for a second there that nobody knew that one!

I haven't seen The Abyss in ages. I wonder if the library has it...

I didn't see your post until the few I knew were already taken, but I think it's pretty cool that your quotes mostly obscure and diverse enough that one person didn't just sweep half of them. In fact, no one got first shot at more than one. Impressive.

*preen* And I wasn't even really trying. *preen*
