You know that meme where you post lines from 20 movies and then people identify them?

1. No. The world is full of guys. Be a man. Don't be a guy. Say Anything -

jennesaisquoi

2. Even if, you know, even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I am forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me, which - while I do appreciate it - I'd never need a painting of birds bought at a diner to remind me of. Chasing Amy -

3. Excuse me? I think the question is, who are you? We're in a war, man! There's no time for stupid questions! I should have your hat for this, snatch it right off your head. But I'm feeling gracious today, so carry on before I report you. Mulan -

4. This is my corn. You people are guests in my corn. Field of Dreams -

5. Listen, if somebody gave me the choice right now, of to never see you again or to marry you, I would marry you. And maybe that's a lot of romantic bullshit, but people have gotten married for a lot less. Before Sunrise -

6. You're suspect! Yeah, you! I don't know what your reputation is in this town, but after the shit you tried to pull today you can bet I'll be looking into you. Now the business we have, heretofore, you can speak with my aforementioned attorney. Good day, gentlemen; and until that day comes, keep your ear to the grindstone. Good Will Hunting -

7. It's not true. Some of us have great stories, pretty stories that take place at lakes with boats and friends and noodle salad. Just no one in this car. As Good As It Gets -

8. No, no. It's not schizophrenia. It's just a voice in my head. I mean, the voice isn't telling me to do anything. It's telling me what I've already done... accurately, and with a better vocabulary. Stranger Than Fiction -

9. Baby, you are gonna miss that plane. Before Sunset -

10. So, this flannel thing. Is that a nod to the crispy Seattle weather, or are you just trying to stay warm in front of the refrigerator? Clueless -

11. What the hell. Life goes on. Maybe there won't be marriage. Maybe there won't be sex. But, by God, there'll be dancing. My Best Friend's Wedding -

12. It's not natural, is it? A girl her age being into Mama Cass. Beautiful Thing -

13. You look so good with blond hair and black roots it's like not even funny.

14. I once had to judge a tighty-whitey contest for Lambda Kappa Pi. Trust me, I can handle anything. Legally Blonde -

15. That's really cool. If I could go back in time, I would want to meet Snoopy! - Josie and the Pussycats -

16. Come on. Do I look like the mother of the future? I mean, am I tough, organized? I can't even balance my checkbook. The Terminator -

20. Your use of language has altered since our arrival. It is currently laced with, shall we say, more colorful metaphors. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home -

In other news, I am going to stop trying to be happy because it doesn't work. I am instead going to accept happiness when it comes and wait out the other times. Today I left work early and went for a very long walk and I am happy enough.

Libby was extra cuddly yesterday and today. I think she can tell when I need it.

MULAN MULAN MULAAAAAAAAN???

10. So, this flannel thing. Is that a nod to the crispy Seattle weather, or are you just trying to stay warm in front of the refrigerator?

lmfao, Clueless! Ahhh, why do I love that movie so much??

18. Well, I guess the laws of physics cease to exist on top of your stove. Were these magic grits? Did you buy them from the same guy who sold Jack his beanstalk beans?

My Cousin Vinny! Oh man. ♥!

because it is a timeless work of cinematic genius, is why!

YES YES YESSSS!!!

i was absolutely sure i would not know any. but i do! i do know one! #10 is clueless.

oh, hey! i know #11 too! my best friend's wedding.

You are correct!

And I love your icon!

Although I know several others in this list, I had to cheer at the inclusion of #1. Say Anything is one of my all-time favorite movies, after all. :)

Edited 2009-03-28 03:14 (UTC)

ha, I knew you'd be the one to get that. :)

but dude, what other ones do you know? (or are you holding back since we have probably watched all of the same movies?) I expect you to get #2 and #5 at least.

Well, I don't want to monopolize the list. :)

#2 - Chasing Amy
#5 - Before Sunrise
#9 - Before Sunset

There are more, but I'll give everyone else a shot. Yeah, unfair advantage since we do watch the same movies. :)

SURPRISE those are all correct. :)

I miss seeing movies with you! I'm glad we saw Twilight together at least. We should go see a movie the next time you are here or I am there.

Speaking of Twilight, I got it from Netflix and made Vance sit through it tonight. It's always fun to torture your spouse. :)

OH LOL the mental image that just conjured up was HILARIOUS.

I was thinking about pretending to be totally into it, just to freak her out, but I'm not that good of an actor.

Oh, but that would have been PRICELESS.

OH MAN, this is about the first time I've ever been able to answer one of these memes! My excitement, let me show you it! 8 is Stranger Than Fiction, 14 is Legally Blonde, and 16 is Josie and the Pussycats? I'm pretty sure? *g*

\o/! 16 was actually the hardest to choose a quote for, because there were too many classic lines to pick from. :)

12 must be Beautiful Thing! and 16 Terminator? and 17 Groundhog Day! NED! Oh man, if Terminator is one of your favorite movies, then WE HAVE MORE IN COMMON! <3 Terminator franchise! I can't wait for Salvation since #3 sucked so hard. Do you watch the show? IT'S REALLY GOOD!

I wish happiness to come soon for you <333

yes yes and yes! re:12, I wanted there to be a quote that said "and then the two boyfriends frolicked in the woods and made out against a tree and it was like everything I had ever wanted in a movie omg" but alas, no luck.

TERMINATOR. here is the thing! I have only seen the 2nd movie once, years and years ago, and I haven't seen anything that's come after that, and I haven't seen the show. BUT I have seen the original movie about fifty times. so, partial credit?

Kitty!! \o/

♥!

OK, two more that I know for sure-

#7 - As Good as it Gets
#20 - Star Trek IV (I think that's the right number - whichever one had the whales in it)

There are a couple more that sound familiar but I haven't been able to place them yet.

Is #4 Field of Dreams?

I think it is. That's one of the ones I've been unsure of.

Yup! I figured "if you build it, he will come" was a little TOO obvious. :)

Yes and yes!

I know you've seen #6. I will give you a clue: the actor who says those lines is the same actor who says one of the other ones you correctly guessed.

Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion?
