Fourteen of the first fifteen went quickly. One of that batch is so obscure I don't expect people will get it. Well no sooner do I write that than someone gets the last one.

Let's try again.


1. "I find myself on the planet Ogo, part of an intellectual elite, preparing to subjugate the barbarian hordes on Pluto. But even though this is a totally convincing reality for me in every way, nevertheless Ogo is actually a construct of my psyche."

2. "I'm not a killer. I'm just someone who wanted to make things right. Can't I just let myself forget what you've told me? Can't I just let myself forget what you've made me do?"

3. "If there is a war on drugs, then many of our family members are the enemy. And I don't know how you wage war on your own family." [livejournal.com profile] tamidon

4. "You don't live with me, you live among the remains of dead people. You sift through the detritus, you read the terrain, you search for signs of passing, for the scent of your prey, and then you hunt them down. That's the only thing you're committed to. The rest is the mess you leave as you pass through."

5. "...while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth."

6. "Last night you were unhinged. You were like some desperate, howling demon. You frightened me. Do it again!" [livejournal.com profile] woodwardiocom

7. "If science teaches us anything, it teaches us to accept our failures, as well as our successes, with quiet dignity and grace." [livejournal.com profile] woodwardiocom

8. "I've made two spooks and a ghoul already, so if they've double-booked the job, and/or they're going to kill me, I'd like to know." [livejournal.com profile] taura_g

9. "I think that sex is overrated. I think that people place far too much importance on it, and I think that stuff about women wantin' it just as bad as men is crap. I mean I think that women want it, I just don't think that they want it for the same reason that men think they do."

10. "I believe in two things: discipline and the Bible. Here you'll receive both. Put your trust in the Lord; your ass belongs to me." [livejournal.com profile] woodwardiocom

11. "Would you mind not shooting at the thermonuclear weapons?" [livejournal.com profile] woodwardiocom

12. "flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes." [livejournal.com profile] feste_sylvain

13. "Have we anything resembling a plan?"
"Mm-hm. Ride till we find them... and kill them all."
[livejournal.com profile] sweetmmeblue

14. "Have you never met a woman who inspires you to love? Until your every sense is filled with her? You inhale her. You taste her. You see your unborn children in her eyes and know that your heart has at last found a home. Your life begins with her, and without her it must surely end." [livejournal.com profile] slfisher

15. "...soon I shall have understanding of video cassette recorders and car telephones. And when I have understanding of them, I shall have understanding of computers. And when I have understanding of computers, I shall be the Supreme Being!" [livejournal.com profile] woodwardiocom

11.Nope, it's Broken Arrow. John Travolta says it to one of his minions with barely restrained patience.

I'll also take a wild guess on #1 and say that it's Flash Gordon.

I only know two immediately, since they're from favorites I've seen multiple times:

6. The Addams Family
15. Time Bandits

Pffft. The first three of those I totally knew. Jon bogarted the easy ones :)

Incidentally, I did know that 6 was Addams Family, but I thought we weren't supposed to guess stuff that was already guessed.

The female protagonist, whose name escapes me, is pretty damn good too.

Yes, of course I remembered it immediately after posting. I'm sitting here going, "Bonnie...Bonnie....uh...."

I had to look them all up, but it turned out I'd seen all but #1 and of those, very much liked all but #2, which just pissed me off, stylistically.

Hey, no, I meant that in a good way. If it was too easy I'd really be snarking. :-)

That's another one where I sat there squeezing my brow trying to place it until [livejournal.com profile] tamidon got it. Fantastic movie.

I really should know #9 too, I can hear the cadence of it in my head, but I can't remember which movie it is from...maybe it will come to me.

that was given away for me by the Bryan Adams song "Have You Really Ever Loved a Woman" that goes with the movie, because it has a line that says "When you can see your unborn children in her eyes/You know you really love a woman".

I'm awful with movie lines, but song lines...those are a boon to me! I've seen most of the movies guessed so far and yet I didn't recognize any of them.

Might I also recommend "Beautiful Girls" as an excellent chick flick movie that's excellent for script and cast?

Yes, Brando was good, too. I love the part where Brando is doing something uncharacteristic -- I think it's lifting weights -- and Faye Dunaway comes upon him. He gives her a big smile, and she looks at him like, "Who are you, and what have you done with my REAL husband?"

I didn't want to spoil them for others. I got them right, except I wasn't sure which Addams Family movie was 6.
