    Welcome to show me the quotes - a movie quotes quiz

    Let’s rundown the format and rules.
    No-google.gif?fit=460%2C292&ssl=1

    I will post 3 rounds of quotes, 10 quotes per round, you will have a deadline by which you need to PM me the answers. Round 2 will carry a bonus round.
    Each quotes will have 3 answers in the following order (points in brackets)
    1. Name of movie the quote appears in. (2)
    2. Year the movie was released in the US (1)
    3. Name of actor or character who says the quote in said movie. (1)
    I will only accept your first answer.
    You are not permitted to Google or research the answers.
    Quotes may have appeared in more than one movie, but the correct answer I’m looking for will likely be the original and/or most famous movie, the quote has appeared in.
    The PM deadline will be announced when I post each round.

    So thanks to everyone who will take part and enjoy the most quoted quiz on Forum Games!

    Example Q & A

    Q. Shut up. Just shut up. You had me at hello.

    Is there any margin of error on the years, or do you have to be exact?

    The way my brain works, I was thinking plus or minus a decade or so might give me a chance :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,454 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    I should point out, part 3 of the answer can be either actor or character name, you dont need both.

    What's your yardstick for "Most Famous"?
    I don't want some quarterback punk telling me Marky Mark says "Use the force Luke" in Transformers 8 and it had a bigger opening weekend so it's the correct answer.

    It will be the first movie the quote appeared in or at least what movie the quote is most famous for. Lets say if you were to Google the quote after the quiz, it will likely be the first result.

    Round 1

    1 When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
    2 Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads.
    3 Houston, we have a problem.
    4 Snakes! Why'd it have to be snakes?
    5 Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!
    6 Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs...
    7 I’m gonna do to your face what Limp Bizkit did to music in the late ’90s.
    8 I’m Mad as Hell and I’m Not Going to Take It Anymore.
    9 Love means never having to say you're sorry.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,808 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Done. Some of them were dodge. But think I did reasonably well. I'll blame Necro for my errors.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    Well, I got most of them wrong :pac:.
    I recognise a lot of them, maybe got the movies of half of them right but I'm sure I got at least 8 or 9 years wrong (I'm bad with movie years).
    Looking forward to tomorrow :D

    Confident I got 7/10 along with the actor

    Doubt I guessed the right year though

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    nuts. Forgot about this. And then I looked at the quotes and it looks like I also forgot about most films. Ah well. it's no fun if everyone wins, right....?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,663 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    I would be absolutely flabbergasted if I get a single one of the years right.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,808 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Think I was actually alright with the years. I'm actually pretty good with dates. :D
    But we shall see. I can hear the sounds of Kolido laughing.

    Sorry, I'll keep it down

    That was bad. I’m just hoping I get lucky on my random guesses at the year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,314 ✭✭✭munster87


    Just finished, think I got all the films, :) the years and characters/actors were bad though I'd say :(

  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,340 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    I'm in. Not a clue what three of the films were, but pretty confident of the films and actors/characters for the rest. Years are a bit sketchy though I'd say.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,428 ✭✭✭MrKingsley


    In. And I can say with confidence that you’ll have to tear the wooden spoon out of my hands


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,215 ✭✭✭khalessi


    whens round posting


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,454 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    We have had 17 entries, thanks everyone.

    I can confirm we currently have a clear leader.

    Round 2 will be posted tomorrow, around midday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,215 ✭✭✭khalessi


    Do we get a leaderboard

    I will do a full reveal on Monday. I will reveal all the answers and round by round scores.

    Round 2

    1 All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up.
    2 Okay. You people sit tight, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if we’re not back by dawn… call the president.
    3 I feel the need - the need for speed!
    4 Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?
    5 There's no crying in baseball!
    6 I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
    7 Excuse me. I believe you have my stapler.
    8 Get your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape.
    9 I live my life a quarter mile at a time.
    10 I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

    Bonus Round - Best Picture. Movies in this round have all won a best picture Oscar

    1 Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.
    2 Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy night.
    3 I'm walking here! I'm walking here!
    4 This is the best deal you're going to get. I won't tell you that you can save yourself, because you can't.
    5 If I'm going to make a fake movie, it's going to be a fake hit


    Please PM me the answers in the following format by 9pm tonight.

    Name of movie
    Year movie was released in the Us
    Actor/character who said the quote.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,883 ✭✭✭tusk

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,557 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    Yesterday I thought my answers were good.
    Today I think they're bad and ugly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,663 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    There is one there that is absolutely wrecking my head. I know it. I've seen it. WTF is it called though???

    I need a walk to clear my head out of all the wrong answers that keep popping in there. It'll come to me then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Mark Hamill


    Yeah... some of my answers are just there because I don't want to leave them blank, not because I actually think they are right :o:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,557 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit

    Hell yeah, no blanks! But definitely some wild guesses

    I’m just hoping there were movies and actors named “Dunno” :D

    I googled after entering. Can't really complain that the ones I didn't know, I'd never seen. I managed to guess one film correctly :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,896 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    How are we scoring ?
    Is it one point each for movie title, year and character or just 1 point for all 3 being correct?
