movie quotes

[topaz]

This meme was going around a while ago.  Someone said that it has to be 17 movies.  Why 17?  I don't know.  You get 13.  Cope.

Some of these ought to be pretty easy.  I expect at least a couple of them to be hard, though.  I didn't pick them to be hard, just to be quotes I liked.

1. You never fuck me!  And I always have to drive!" -- Drugstore Cowboy (qnetter)
   
2. "Why aren't you popular with the Chicago Police Department, Jack?" -- Midnight Run (harimad)
3. "You really are an untidy boy." -- Time Bandits (stephe)
4. "No, I didn't say you have character.  I said you are a natural character.  You're an incredible flake."
5. "That is one nutty hospital." -- Tootsie (qnetter, weegoddess)
6. "I should probably tell you that the reason I'm taking the bus today is that my driver's license was revoked." -- Speed (badlittlemonkey)
7. "We zip in, we pick 'em up, we zip out again!  Come on, it's like going into Wisconsin!" -- Stripes (crouchback)
8. "All those people killed.  And for what?  For a little bit of money.  But there's more to life than a little money, you know?  Don't you know that? And here you are.  And it's a beautiful day." -- Fargo (badlittlemonkey)
9. "We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us." -- Magnolia (creidylad)
10. "Because you're on television, dummy." -- Network (harimad)
11. "I was flying, I ---- of course I was flying." -- The Little Mermaid (badlittlemonkey)
12. "You'd make a great poker player, kid." -- The Sweet Hereafter (qnetter)
13. "That's funny, I don't... feel drunk...." -- Memento (redjo)

FWIW, I knew that 5) was 'Tootsie' without looking it up; I've just been catching up on LJ and found this post...

'Tootsie' might well be one of my favourite movies evar. The fact that you know it well enough to quote just makes me want you more. Heh.

I spent a while trying to think of a quote from that one that was distinctive and yet didn't quite give the game away. Shame I forgot one of my favorites: "Sex changes things, Michael. Once I slept with a friend of mine -- the next time I saw him he acted like he owed me money."

The fact that you know it well enough to quote just makes me want you more. Heh.

You know what I have to say about that -- just say the word. :-)

Actually, my favourite quote from that movie is: "Good shower? Good shower."

Ok, ONE of my favourite quotes. Oh, Michael, I begged you to get some therapy.

just say the word. :-)

Oh, sure, you say that and I'm all the way over HERE.

Le sigh.
