Cinema Hype

This week’s offering:

“‘I hate this nightgown. I hate all my nightgowns, and I hate all my underwear too.’
‘My dear, you have lovely things.’
‘But I’m not two hundred years old. Why can’t I sleep in pajamas?’
‘Pajamas?’
‘Just the top part. Did you know that there are people who sleep with absolutely nothing on at all?’
‘I rejoice to say I do not.’”

Anyone? Anyone?

Nicely done to Jennifer and Heather, winners the past two weeks! They’ve received their cheers, as promised.

“Being perfect is not about that scoreboard out there. It’s not about winning. It’s about you and your relationship with yourself, your family and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didn’t let them down because you told them the truth. And that truth is you did everything you could. There wasn’t one more thing you could’ve done. Can you live in that moment as best you can, with clear eyes, and love in your heart, with joy in your heart? If you can do that, gentlemen - you’re perfect!”

Hint: If you know where to look, this one’s got a clue embedded. If you don’t, well, I can’t help you.

“‘I want to buy her some flowers. That’s what men do when they break a date.’
‘That’s not what men do. I know no men who do that.’”

Think you’ve got it? Take a guess. I dare you.

In other news, I win! Last week’s quotation was, apparently, a lateral-thinking exercise that didn’t quite take: it was from Transformers: The Movie, which all children of the 80s should know came out in 1986.

Ah, well. Better luck this week.

And awaaaay we go:

“‘Don’t act hostile; I’ll use the universal greeting.’
‘Universal greeting?’
‘Watch, I’ll have them eating out of my hands. Bah weep granah weep ninni bong.’
‘Bah weep granah weep ninni bong?’
‘Bah weep granah weep ninni bong.’
‘See, the universal greeting works every time.’

Have at it, kids!

“‘Don’t shut YOUR eyes!’
‘Sorry; I’m just a little nervous!’
‘YOU’RE nervous? An 11 year-old is cutting my hair!’”

Also, I realized this morning that I still owe someone a cheer:

Jennifer proved her status as a klassy dame by knowing that QS#31 came from Reno 911!, which is pretty brilliant if you ask me. So, in her honor, a few choice lines:

Guess who knows her quick retorts?
Even with those little short shorts?
Jennifer, Jennifer, YEAH!

*insert high kick here*

Nicely done and thanks for playing, Jennifer!

“‘Does anybody have any ideas?’

Good luck! (This one’s kind of hard. There may be a hint later in the week.)

“‘What are you doing?’
‘Guys, what would you wish you’d done before you died?’
‘Paint a self-portrait.’
‘Build a house.’
‘And you?’
‘I don’t know. Turn the wheel now, come on!’
‘You have to know the answer to this question! If you died right now, how would you feel about your life?’
‘I don’t know, I wouldn’t feel anything good about my life, is that what you want to hear me say? Fine. Come on!’
‘Not good enough.’”

This week’s extra-special quotation:

“And so, dear Lord, it is with deep sadness that we turn over to you this young woman, whose dream to ride on a giant swan resulted in her death. Maybe it is your way of telling us… to buy American.”

Klassy.

This week:

“‘I never told him to stay out of your bed.’
‘You most certainly did.’
‘I never told him to stay out of your bed.’
‘Yes you did.’
‘I told him that a player on a streak has to respect the streak.’
‘Oh, fine.’
‘You know why? Because they don’t–they don’t happen very often.’
‘Right.’
‘If you believe you’re playing well because you’re getting laid, or because you’re not getting laid, or because you wear women’s underwear, then you ARE! And you should know that!’”

“[Character X enters a room where Character Y is up late watching TV]
‘What’s this?’
‘I’m not sure.’
‘What’s it about?’
‘I don’t know.’
‘Who’s that?’
‘I think the guy in the hat did something terrible.’
‘Like what?’
‘You’re so analytical! Sometimes you just have to let art… flow… over you.’

Let’s hear it! Who and what?

Ready? Go:

“‘Did you read the latest draft, by the way?’
‘Oh, yeah. Yeah.’
‘And?’
‘It’s great. I mean there are so many improvements. It’s much tighter, just seems… I don’t know, more congealed or something.’
‘Mm-hmm. What about the new ending? Did you like that?’
‘Oh, yeah. New ending vastly superior to the old ending.’
‘There is no new ending. Page 750 on is exactly the same.’
‘Well… maybe it just seemed new because everything leading up to it was so different?’
‘Yeah, that must be it!’

Thanks to Kendra for her impressive guessing on Quotation Sensation #22–your impulses were good!

In fact, the origin of this quote:

“Bless us oh Lord for these thine gifts which we are about to recieve. And uh… ye Lord, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of no food, I shall fear no hunger. We want you to give us our day of daily bread. And to the republic for which it stands… by the powers vested in me, I pronounce us ready to eat. Amen. ”

comes from Whoopi Goldberg as Sister Mary Clarence in the original Sister Act.

Happy Friday! This week’s challenge:

“Oh, look at this! Sons of the pharaohs! Give me frogs! Flies, locusts! Anything but you. Compared to you the other plagues were a joy!”
“I am so very sorry. It was an accident.”
“My darling girl, when Ramses destroyed Syria, that was an accident. You are a catastrophe!”
