Name That Film: Movies You Know By Heart Edition

Say hello to my little friend! Common cultural currency. This week's Film Edition, after a brief delay, introduces, much like Jimmy Buffett's, Songs You Know By Heart, movie lines with which you may do the same. Where could we start? We could love each other RIGHT HERE outside of time...detached! I'm in the middle of a mystery and it's all a secret. I thought my ideas were so clear...

In 5 minutes you are not going to believe what I've just told you. This used to be one helluva country, I wonder what happened. Just you remember this: a kiss is still a kiss and a sigh may a lost try, though the fundamental things still apply as time goes by. Long after two lovers woo, continue to say, "I do!"

Who hasn't observed Cary Grant ducking for cover North by Northwest? Maybe a dingo ate your baby and I don't really mean maybe. This what you call bringing up baby? We must get beyond the iron chain of passions to be more like a great, self serving piece of art hovering in harmony void of restriction. I've seen horrors but you've no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me, you have a right to do that...but you've no right to judge me. A fellow will remember a lot of things you wouldn't think he'd remember...am I talking to much? What's wrong with a perfect blend of comedy and pathos? Wouldn't the truth be adequately handled and discerned solely dependent upon the abilities of the individual? This is a tale of good and evil. It was with this hand that Cane iced his brother Love. Carry on wayward son. There may be peace when we are done. Lay your weary head to rest. Don'tcha cry no more!

You talkin' ta me? Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn, a dollar, or a do-re-mi! Two roads diverge in the mud of blood and most take the other one for it is inherently easier. What, like I amuse you? Soylent green is people! Let's bring back life form as priority number one. All other priorities rescinded. Here's looking at you kid! I'm as mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this anymore...or less. You stay alive baby. Do it for Van Gogh! But if you wanna stay alive? Then ante up! If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole winter. Just don't be like me! Salvation does not lie within these 4 walls. Keep in mind even the most miserable life is better than a sheltered existence in an organized society where everything is calculated and perfect. I had a dream. In fact, it was on the night I first met you. In the dream there was our world and the world was dark because there weren't any robins and the robins represented love...and for the longest time there was this darkness and all of the sudden, thousands upon thousands of robins were set free and they flew down and brought this blinding light of love. It seemed that love would make any difference and it did!

Always in motion is the future. I don't think there is one word that can describe a man's life. Strange isn't it? Each person's life touches so many other lives and right now I feel like I can take on the whole empire myself. Do you have a special grudge against me? Do you feel a particularly strong resentment? is there something I've said that has caused this contempt, or is it just the things I stand for that you despise? Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night and unless you hold the chicken, bring the toast, and give me the check, you haven't broken any rules. What about the place where white picket fences and homecoming queens collide along the underside of American culture? A bit heavier I agree than volcanoes and pirates but certainly not like a waste of time arguing with a man whose lining up to be hot lunch. I just hope we don't wake up on Mars or something surrounded by millions of these little squishy guys.

Just when I was out, they pull me back in. Ken you think of a way an entire nation and it's exclusive baggage from the annals of history ken be aptly portrayed by 12 angry men? We'll always have Paris, or something based on similar events. You can't even buy a bag of peanuts in this town without someone writing a song about you. It seems the smell of napalm in the morning smells like...like...victory! You don't care about anything 'zept you. You want to persuade people that you love 'em so much they ought to love you back...only you want love on your own terms, something to be played your way, according to your rules. Do you presently possess the power of life and death? We are the music makers. We are the dreamer of dreams. If you can keep your head about you when all are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, you have been successful enough to employ the phrase in good faith, "I've got a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it!"
Now remember, as long as you live, never laugh at me, laugh at anything or anyone else but never directly at me. The universe grows smaller ever day and the threat of aggression, by any group, anywhere, can no longer be tolerated. You broke my heart. You broke my heart. There must be security for all, or no one is secure. By now intelligence has been traced to a top secret Russian project through the perpetually fog shrouded wasteland below the arctic peaks of the Zhokhov Islands. Try a little tenderness with this flailing mess despite the flowery fallibility of Man and their machines. Nothing is as bad as it seems. Life is beautiful. Give me a place to sit and I may destroy it! The nothingness of existence extends over time and space stretching back to the dawn of Man unto the mind finally grasping idea. Function. Brain assimilation prepares us for the transition. Evolutionary progress proceeds through technological development rising as the new order of life.

Yes, my friends, there are movie quotes that you have heard over the years that you can recite as easily as a police officer can recite the Miranda rights. Sometimes, you know a quote, but had no idea where it came from! Then, low and behold, you hear it in an old movie and a bell goes off inside your head. "That's where it came from!!"

Well, this week is designed to make all of you feel like movie savants. There are 15 movies quoted below and many of you will know all of them. Of course, I suppose this could be the most frustrating week ever as you may know the quote but just can't name the film.

Special Directions!: This week, we want you to tell us how many movies you know from the list, but only name 2! We don't want someone to come in and knock out all 15 without everyone having a chance to play. Basically, we want you to do what bosox61 does every week.

Good luck and thanks for playing Name that Film!!!
