We’ve got over 10 inches by now and, as you can see, it’s still coming down strong. We already had about five inches and then this morning it started snowing and now we’ve at least doubled that.
-Change of subject-
I wanted to do this fun quiz thing. Here’s what I did:
1. Pick 16 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4.. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search or other search functions. And no checking my movie app.
So here’s my movie quotes:
1. Baptism! You two’re just dumber’n a bag of hammers.
2. Voltage, VOLTAGE! Up up. Up up!
3. Does this film have socially redeeming value?
4. Twigs? Speak not of twigs when you look at an oak! Until tonight, my little sapling.
5. I don’t care what I see outside. My vision is within! Here is where the birds sing! Here is where the sky is blue!
6. You know what they say. No life without wife!
7. So, go get him, for Pete’s sake!
8. That gag’s got whiskers on it!
9. Little surprises around every corner, but nothing dangerous.
10. I can’t go back, I’m a human sacrifice.
11. I honestly think I’d give up smoking if he asked me.
12. It’s my manner, sir. It looks insubordinate, but it isn’t really.
13. Trial by stone!
14. My story begins in London, not so very long ago. And yet so much has happened since then, that it seems more like an eternity.
15. I have some lovely dresses; take your pick.
16. Is wrong address!
Can you guess what any of them are from?
What wonderful quotes! That I can feel are from wonderful, mostly classic, movies. I am ashamed not to be able to guess any of them. But I do guess that Jimmy Stewart is in many of them. Do I win any points if that’s so?
1. O Brother Where Art Thou?
5. Room with a View
6. Bride and Prejudice?
Others sound really familiar but not enough to put my finger on.
And my sympathies about the snow!
Sarah got three right!
There’s no Jimmy Stewart, though.
However some of the movies have Gregory Peck, Peter O’Toole, Audrey Hepburn, Danny Kaye, Robert DeNiro, and Ewan McGregor. -Not that these actors necessarily said those quotes, but they are in those movies.
2. Help!
4. The Court Jester
9. Charley (Willy Wonka?) And The Chocolate Factory (Gene Wilder version)
10. Big Fish
11. Breakfast At Tiffany’s?
12. I am guessing Lawrence of Arabia
13. The Dark Crystal
14. 101 Dalmations?
15. Stardust
16. Lilo and Stitch? Maybe?
Samuel got 9 out of the 10 he guessed.
Left to solve are:
3. Does this film have socially redeeming value?
7. So, go get him, for Pete’s sake!
8. That gag’s got whiskers on it!
16. Is wrong address!
I only got 2 of them off the top of my head:
3. The Muppet Movie (of course, dad quotes it all the time, Sam the Eagle is so funny)
14. 101 Dalmatians (I don’t know how many million times I have seen this movie)
some of them are ringing bells, but I can’t think of what they are right now…
I like Sam the Eagle in Muppet Christmas Carol:
Sam: It is not the American way!
Scooter (?): Uh… Sam…
Sam: Oh! It is not the BRITISH Way!
