Blackbead Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 "The Dirty Half-Dozen Plus One"? "Seven the Hard Way"? "Six Heroes and a Ewe"? I'm a-thinkin . . . Black and white and involving WWII . . . and six heroes plus one and a kid and his ma. I'm still a-thinkin . . . Give me a second.

Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 Is it..."Hail the Conquering Hero"? I recall seeing that on TCM. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
BriarRose Kildare Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 I'll have ye know dear Mission, I am still pounding me head on the desk....arrggg. I can hear the voice saying those words.....and damn if I can bring the rest of it to me memory. I am still thinkin' on it though. Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. The Dimension of Time is only a doorway to open. A Time Traveler I am and a Lover of Delights whatever they may be. There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.
Mission Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Is it..."Hail the Conquering Hero"?I recall seeing that on TCM. Bravo! The next line (which I left off on purpose because it's searchable (little devil icon goes here)) is: "They say opportunity's only got one hair on his head and you gotta grab it while it's going by and dog it down or you mightn't get another chance." You're up. Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 That was a tough one. Alright...next quote: Yes, I am a coward for living next to that son of a bitch, doing his laundry, making his bed, feeding him. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
Blackbead Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 My wife and I fairly recently watched this one - "Pan's Labyrinth," if I'm not mistaken. "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 That'd be right Blackbead. Yer up! Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
Blackbead Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 And now, a guilty pleasure: "Why am I worried about this? You did it! All I gotta do is go tell 'em what happened. But they'll say, 'Who left him alone with the picture?' And I'll say, 'Me'. And they'll say, 'You're fired' and I'll say, 'Fine'. They'll say, 'No, no, no, firing's not good enough. Let's prosecute you for negligence'. I go to jail, my wife leaves me, my daughter becomes a prostitute, I wind up on death row sharing a cell with Butch McDick!"

"I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Blackbead Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 LOL! Nicely done, Mission! An excellent clue! There IS a sequel - sort of - to the movie from which me quote arises. And the movie from which has the quote . . .? "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
Misson Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I was sort of hoping someone else would get it, but it seems not to be so. The quote is from Mr. Bean. There's a new one coming out...this month? Next month? Ok, so here's the next quote: "Oh my God!" Easy, isn't it? Ok, it's so easy it's hard. Actually it's the way that it's said that makes this quote sort of entertaining for me, so let's break into 3 dimensional quotes (or something). This hint may help you get the quote: Oh my God! "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Duchess Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Well, it brings two movies to mind for me. The most recent Indiana Jones, and Spaceballs. But I've a feeling neither are correct.
Lily Alexander Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I think I've finally got one. "Animal House" If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Misson Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Indeed. All my cleverness (not to mention sound file editing time) so easily athwart. That means it's your turn to come up with a quote. Now I must return to trying to extract Elmer Bernstein's wonderful Road Trip music from the sound files. No one ever even thought to provide the instrumental tracks to this movie! All we get is Louie Louie and such like. "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Lily Alexander Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Yeah, it was definitely the sound file that did it for me. I know this should be an easy one. "I'm invincible" "You're a looney" If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Misson Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 In addition to the correct movie, "I'm invincible" is a notable quote from Goldeneye. Alas, "You're a loony." is not. "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Lily Alexander Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Well, as a hint, Goldeneye isn't the movie I'm referring to. The quotes are from the same movie spoken by two characters. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Graydog Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Yeah, it was definitely the sound file that did it for me. I know this should be an easy one."I'm invincible" "You're a looney" Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail It is a line spoken by the Black Knight with a response from King Arthur Here's one (might have already been done, I havent read all 108 pages here) "Badges!? We don't need no stinking badges!" The line actually is in several movies, but do you know the first movie that used it? Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
Misson Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Treasure of Sierra Madre! And 5,000 movies containing comedic knockoffs ever since! (The Three Amigos comes to mind...) Bogey was something else in that movie. "Conscience. What a thing. If you believe you got a conscience it'll pester you to death. But if you don't believe you got one, what could it do t'ya? Makes me sick, all this talking and fussing about nonsense." "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
PyratePhil Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 Bogey was my hero and role-model for many years. He was fantastic in so many of his movies, but he was also a square-shooter and honorable guy in the real world. He shunned the usual Hollywood circuit, preferring to hang out with a close circle of friends at home. Plus he got Baby. The lucky $*#&(. ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius
Red-Handed Jill Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 (The Three Amigos comes to mind...) Blazing Saddles is what comes to mind for me... Okay - new quote: "And then mommy kissed daddy, and the angel told the stork. The stork flew down from heaven and left a diamond under a leaf in the cabbage patch, and the diamond turned into a baby." "Our parents are having a baby, too. They had sex."
Mission Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 Addams Family 2. Good ol' Wednesday, the realist/cynic. (BTW, Pubert's theme in the movie is a hoot!) Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
Misson Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 Darn, I wanted to do another 3D quote, but something has gone awry... Here, this should be simple. "If it's all the same to you, I'll drive that tanker." (It's even searchable for you movie quote Googlers (ie. cheaters! )) "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
