Subject: BS: Name The Movie From: GUEST,Old Guy Date: 05 Aug 06 - 10:48 AM Post a popular phrase from a movie and see who can guess the name of the movie and possibly the actor. Here are some of my favorites: What we've got here is failure to communicate. Think you used enough dynamite there, Butch? Care for some gopher, Everett? Dyin Aint Much Of A Livin, Boy! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: kendall Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:05 AM 1. Cool Hand Luke 2. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 3. ??? 4. Can't recall the name of movie, but it seems like Frank Gorshen was the "boy". Was it Gregory Peck as Ringo? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: kendall Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:06 AM I believe the man who said "What we have here is a failure to communicate" was Strother Martin. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: kendall Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:10 AM Name these 1 "Never apologize, it's a sign of weakness." 2. "There will come a day at sea when you will smell land where there be no land"... 3. Nature, Mr. Allnut, is what we were put upon this earth to rise above." |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Clinton Hammond Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:24 AM On the first list, #3 is from "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" If you have to google, then what's the point? #1 "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon #3 The African Queen.... |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Clinton Hammond Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:46 AM Except the quote is... "Go ahead.... Make my day." He never said, 'punk' If you're going to play movie quotes, you have to make sure you get them right |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: GUEST,Old Guy Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:51 AM Moral fiber? You pasty-faced sumbitch. I invented moral fiber. I figured you for a Yankee but you look more like a prairie chicken, all boney and tough. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: GUEST,Old Guy Date: 05 Aug 06 - 11:56 AM Yeah, youre are right I think it was "Well, do ya, punk? Go ahead, make my day." |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: bobad Date: 05 Aug 06 - 12:07 PM "Dyin Aint Much Of A Livin, Boy!" - Th Outlaw Josey Wales" Here's one for you: "She got an ass on her like a forty dollar cow 'n' she got a tit - why I wish it were full of tequila. You can't beat that no how." |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Clinton Hammond Date: 05 Aug 06 - 12:08 PM "Well, do ya, punk? Go ahead, make my day." Those are from two different movies..... "Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?" is from the original Dirty Harry movie.... "Go ahead... Mkae my day" is from Sudden Impact |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Stilly River Sage Date: 05 Aug 06 - 12:08 PM So you can tell whose questions you're answering (lets see if you are as good with the less macho flicks): SRS-1. "I like to watch." SRS-2. "(snort of laughter) He lives on the Mexington Avenue Line." SRS-3 "They're called boobs, Ed." SRS-4 "She won't be saying anything." (I hope I got that one word-for-word.) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Clinton Hammond Date: 05 Aug 06 - 12:09 PM "She got an ass on her like a forty dollar cow" Pat Garret & Billy The Kid.... Why follow one Dylan-esque quote with another? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Clinton Hammond Date: 05 Aug 06 - 12:14 PM SRS1 -- too vague.... it's been said too many times in too many movies SRS#2 Desk Set... SRS #3 Erin Brokovitch or however that was spelled.... SRS #4 again... too vague..... |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Alba Date: 05 Aug 06 - 01:17 PM 1. "I love the smell of napalm in the morning." 2. "I am big! It's the pictures that got small." 3. "Attica! Attica!" 4. "That woman deserves her revenge and we deserve to die." 5. "Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony." |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: GUEST,Old Guy Date: 05 Aug 06 - 01:18 PM I don't reckon I got no reason to kill nobody. Mmmmph I feel like a Kentucky Fried idiot They're baaaaack. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Stilly River Sage Date: 05 Aug 06 - 01:33 PM 1. "I love the smell of napalm in the morning." Apocalypse Now 2. "I am big! It's the pictures that got small." Sunset Boulevard CH, that first one of mine (SRS-1. "I like to watch.") is a major punchline several times through the movie. If you'd seen it, you'd know what it was. But it is a slightly obscure movie. Hint: Peter The last one (SRS-4 "She won't be saying anything.") is also a major turning point in a movie that if you'd seen it it probably would jump out at you. Hint: Grace SRS |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: John on the Sunset Coast Date: 05 Aug 06 - 01:35 PM Alba 1/ Apocalypse Now 2/ Sunset Blvd. Here's one "You bastard." "That I am. In my case it comes naturally; but you, sir, are a self-made man." |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: JennyO Date: 05 Aug 06 - 01:50 PM "I like to watch" is from "Being There" with Peter Sellers. |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: John on the Sunset Coast Date: 05 Aug 06 - 03:46 PM Correction alert.... "If you want to call me that, smile" or "When you call me that, smile" I am going to give you guys the Dime a Dozen quote, because it is from a not very memorable Bing Crosby film, "Man on Fire". His co-star, in her debut, was Inger Stevens, on whom I deveolped an instantaneous crush. I think the last time this flick was shown on TV was never. |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: GUEST Date: 05 Aug 06 - 04:12 PM "It's not until you lose everything that you are free to do anything." "Do you find that this approach usually works? Or let me guess, you've never tried it before. In fact, you don't normally approach girls - am I right? The truth is that you're a quiet sensitive type but, if I'm prepared to take a chance, I might just get to know the inner you: witty, adventurous, passionate, loving, loyal. Taxi! A little bit crazy, a little bit bad. But hey - don't us girls just love that?" "If your manner of speech is in any way a reflection of what goes on inside your head, you are lucky you can tie your shoes." "They say that it was so hot in the city today, grown men were walking up to cops on street corners begging them to shoot." |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 05 Aug 06 - 04:15 PM Right—Roys Scheider (Chief Brody) in Jaws. He was spreading chum on the water when the shark rose, and for a few seconds, they eyeballed each other. The shark disappeared under the waves and Brody walked backward into the cabin, still looking at where the shark had last been, and said to Quint, "We're gonna need a bigger boat." Richard Dreyfus (Hooper) had a funny bit that didn't involve a spoken line. He and Quint (Robert Shaw) didn't get along and were often trying to one-up each other. Quint is sitting with a can of beer in his hand and Hooper is standing near him with a Styrofoam coffee cup in his hand. Quint swigs that last of his beer and crushes the can with one hand. "CRUNCH!" Hooper glares at him and crushes the Styrofoam cup. "crinkle". Hilarious! Don Firth |

"Look out the window. And doesn't this remind you of when you were in the boat, and then later that night, you were lying, looking up at the ceiling, and the water in your head was not dissimilar from the landscape, and you think to yourself, 'Why is it that the landscape is moving, but the boat is still?'" "For the past four years, he's done maybe 12 perfect contracts. Perfect. Like a ghost." [to Lolita] "That was quite an outfit you weren't wearing earlier." "You know, Memphis does look like Yokohama. Just more space. If you took away sixty percent of the buildings in Yokohama, it would look like this." |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: catspaw49 Date: 06 Aug 06 - 08:33 AM I dunno' Alba.....I kinda' know how he feels. I answered a bunch above and no one ever acknowledged whether I was right or wrong. Then several people came along and reanswered ones that already had been answered. I asked one and nobody even took a stab at it. This is a bit typical of what has become the common Mudcat thread pattern with everyone throwing in their own things and almost no one reading what others have posted. No use trying to change it though. It is what it has become and that's what it is. (;<)) Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 09 Aug 06 - 12:54 PM Since nobody popped on one I posted wa-a-a-a-a-ay back up there, "Oh, my God! Oh, my God, are you telling me you're pregnant?" is a line from the 1985 science fiction movie "Enemy Mine." War between Earth and the "Dracs," an alien reptilian species. Dennis Quaid crash-lands his damaged ship on a habitable but hostile planet, only to discover that a Drac pilot (Lou Gossett, Jr.) has also crash-landed there. They start out trying to do each other in, then discover that if either of them is to survive at all, they're going to have to depend on each other. The Drac reproduce asexually, and when the two erstwhile enemies take shelter in a cave, the human discovers that the Drac is "budding." The Drac dies and the human adopts the strange offspring, which leads to some heavy-duty plot complications, and eventually a truce in the interplanetary hostilities. It wasn't the greatest science fiction movie I've ever seen, and some folks have said that they thought it really sucked, but I thought it was pretty good. Interesting twists and good performances. And even bad science fiction is better than none. Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Slag Date: 11 Aug 06 - 02:03 PM Hey Mudcatters, maybe you can help me on this one. When I was a kid in 1956 or 57 I saw a movie on TV and it is the only time I've ever seen it. I don't know it's name or who the actors were but I vividly remember the story. It opens with two greek looking god types superimposed against a starry background and one is telling the other to watch what happens. A giant ghostly finger comes down and touches a man as he is walking down the street. The man turns into a local tavern, is greeted in a way that lets you know that he is kind of the butt of the joke. In the course of events he makes a bar room wager that he can turn a lamp upside down without touching it and lo and behold, he does it! When he returns home he begins to explore his new powers and a really great sequence of slight-of-hand takes place. Things rock along with interpersonal relationships and prodigious application of absolute power until finally this guy is king of the world and is holding court in this open air Greco-Roman palace. I can't remember the conundrum that was at issue before him but a courtier points out that he doesn't have enough time, the sun is setting whereupon he decides that is no problem. He has the power to stop the Earth, Before the courtisan can explain the consequences of such an act he so orders it and everything goes flying off into space. With gasping desparation he wishes that everything could go back to before he had the power and suddenly the scene reverts to him walking down the street and turning into the bar. He makes his bet and nothing happens. The folks at the bar have a good laugh at his expense and the scene shifts back to the gods. The one says to the other, "See, it happens that way every time." It's really a much more interesting and entertaining movie than my poor, brief discription but I hope someone recognizes it and can lay a name to it. Thanks for your help! |

Someone has to climb under it with the cranks and driveshafts whizzing real close to to them. They finally get to the motor and shut the damned thing off. It scarred the crap out of me at the time. What was the name of that movie? More quotes: Goodnight, you princes of Maine, you kings of New England. For uttering those contemptuous words in my presences, I'm goin' to have your balls in a sling. I know men younger than myself who take their pensions and put on stupid little white shirts with cut-off sleeves, alligator on the tit, and spend the rest of their days beating the hell out of a little white ball with an iron club. My God! The thought of it makes me want to puke. |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Slag Date: 12 Aug 06 - 01:16 AM Excellent Don Firth. Here's a tangential one. Without Googling or looking it up in the dictionary (this is really easy) where does the word "trivia" come from? |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Mrs.Duck Date: 12 Aug 06 - 08:05 AM No, no a thousand times, no. I'd rather die than say yes. |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 12 Aug 06 - 03:26 PM ". . . where does the word "trivia" come from?" Hmm. . . . Back in the Sixties, I had a guitar student named Doug Johnson. He was my last lesson for the evening, so when it was over, we'd adjourn to the local Pizza Haven where you could get an eight-inch pizza (a good late evening snack) for 75¢. Coffee was 15¢ a cup, and since we'd ordered food, refills were free. After consuming unhealthy amounts of coffee late in the evening, sleep was pretty unlikely, so we'd drop into the infamous Blue Moon Tavern for a couple of beers to dull the edge of the caffeine before heading off to our respective abodes. Doug was a pretty interesting and knowledgeable guy and we had lots of long conversations, discussing cabbages and kings and stuff and things. I can't remember where he worked, but he was a mathematician by trade. And he was intellectually very playful, into odd facts and mental experiments. He was the first person (actually, the only person) I knew who calculated the speed of light in furlongs per fortnight (225,315,820,800, give or take a cubit or two, as I recall). One of our many topics of conversation was etymology and the miscellaneous origins of words and phrases. "Trivia" was one of the words that came up. Doug's theory (I didn't have one) was that it was Latin, tri, meaning "three" and via, meaning "road." Somewhere near ancient Rome, Doug mused, three roads came together, and often travelers would meet there, pause in their journey, and swap news. Most of the news was of no great importance, often just odd bits of gossip, and such things as, "How are things out your way, Antonius?" Hence, "trivia" came to refer to "ephemeral or unimportant information." Interesting, but it sounds almost a little too pat to be true. Whatcha got, Slag? Don Firth |

These are from "The Charge of the Light Brigade" (1968 version) , IIRC they were Trevor Howard (Cardigan) to Harry Andrews (Lucan) and David Hemmings (Nolan) to Trevor Howard respectively. Easy 6: "...Sweat 'em down, Staff..." "...Then there's the Commandant. The Commandant signs a piece of paper. He'd sign his own death warrant if I placed it in front of him... " and "...New scum and old scum are a bad mix..." All are lines from Harry Andrews (as the RSM) in "The Hill" Easy 7: "...Oh I do like to see a lot of soldiers, Soldiers are what I like to see, And if they're the type that have a horse Well I like them more of course Because I do love the cavalry..."

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 12 Aug 06 - 11:33 PM So I actually did learn something!

Thanks, Slag! I feel a whole lot better now! Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Old Guy Date: 13 Aug 06 - 01:01 AM Right on Ciderhouse rules. I searched up the movie about the runaway carrousel or merry go round. It was Strangers on a Train from 1951, supposedly Hitchcock's best thriller. The way I remember it the merry go round was stopped but in reality it blew apart before it was stopped, My young mind must have blocked that out. More quotes: They feed us the slops from the Morpheum Theater. You hope for MilkyWay, you settle for Skittles. I'm Steve-- Steve King.

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 14 Aug 06 - 04:24 PM This could be a toughie or it could be a slam-dunk. Errol Flynn and Alan Hale were together as side-kicks in enough swashbucklers during the Thirties and Forties that they seemed almost as inseparable as Hope and Crosby in the "Road" movies. By the way, that's Alan Hale Sr. Alan Hale Jr. was probably most famous for playing the Captain on "Gilligan's Island," but he was a dead ringer for his old man. Anyway, it's a costume flick with lots of swordplay. Early in the movie, Errol Flynn leaps off a balcony into the garden below where Alan Hale is standing guard, or just waiting for Flynn to finish pursuing his hobby. Flynn points over his shoulder and says one word. Hale points away from the manor house and says another word. The conversation goes like this: Flynn: "Husband!" Hale: "Horses!" And they run like hell. As the thread title says, "Name the Movie." Don Firth |

I must have watched it so so many times now and still love it and the Mrs Danvers Character.

I can't recall the exact circumstances (it was 57 years ago that I saw the movie!), but they're about to smuggle some hood in the trunk of a car (I think he may have ratted on the Cagney character, but thought he was getting away with it). He crawls into the trunk and they close the lid. His muffled voice comes out of the trunk and he's complaining that there's no air in there. Cagney says, "Here! Lemme give ya some air holes!" Then he pulls his gun out of his shoulder holster and empties it into the trunk lid. You could hear gasps of horror all over the theater. Don Firth |

Hollywood did a remake of a film that Oliver had been the lead in, & whoever played the role in the remake failed to get across one scene anything like as well as Larry had done (in the opinion of the Critics). The fact is, this Hollywood actor had played the scene with much wringing of hands & wailing, etc, very dramatically (& no it wasnt Hamlet, & it wasnt 'The Scottish Play'...am pretty sure it wasnt Shakespeare at all) & Larry had done it with his back to the camera. It was actually SAID by one Critic that "Olivier is a better actor with the BACK OF HIS NECK than 'xxxxx' (whoever it was) at his best. Wish I knew what it was to see the 2 films & compare! |

As for my "If Uncle doesn't get his cut, we nail your hide to the barnyard door", that was from a movie called "The Mating Game" (1959. Debbie Reynolds, Tony Randall, and Paul Douglas.) Perhaps a trifle of a film, but it was a family favorite when I was growing up. According to the credits it was based on the book "The Darling Buds of May" by H. E. Bates, though the movie was set in Maryland, USA. I've never read "Darling Buds", nor have I ever seen the British TV show, but I plan to read at least the first book in the series in the near future. Don |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 31 Aug 06 - 12:35 PM There was a 1970 rendition of "Wuthering Heights" with Anna Calder-Marshall as Cathy and Timothy Dalton as Heathcliff. Timothy Dalton is one helluvan actor, and I've seen him in a number of movies where he was excellent. A suitably brooding and intense Heathcliff. My wife, Barbara, is a real fan of the novels of Jane Austin and the Bronte sisters, and she's familiar enough with Jane Eyre to be able to do a sing-along with the dialogue and snarl a bit when they get it wrong (or, at least, change it substantially). We saw a 1983 mini-series of Jane Eyre (on Masterpiece Theatre) with Zelah Clark as a suitable meek-appearing but strong-willed Jane and Timothy Dalton as the intense, haunted Rochester. Excellent! Most Americans probably know Dalton best from his two outings as James Bond. Not his best work, but that wasn't his fault. He did his best with scripts by people who would have been more at home doing comic books. Good effort, but he didn't have anything to work with. Okay, this should be an easy one: "Once is happenstance. Twice may be coincidence. But three times is enemy action!" What movie and who said it to whom? Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Paul from Hull Date: 31 Aug 06 - 01:03 PM Don, I NEED to see that version! Never have yet, & like you, I rate Timothy Dalton VERY highly. He was the only SERIOUS James Bond, for a start!(I'm not one to EVER knock Connery, but his Bond films 'look' very 60's, same as Roger Moore's look very glitzy, tacky & 70's). Timothy Dalton played it much more like the Bond of the novels, & his 2 werent all just 'sheen & no substance' either, & a lot less 'comic book' than the majority of Bond films. 'Once is happenstance. Twice may be coincidence. But three times is enemy action'...I'm fond of quoting that myself, but you have caught me out! I cant think what its from! Trying to think of a good one to set you all.... |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Don Firth Date: 31 Aug 06 - 06:04 PM Got it, drummer! As I recall, Goldfinger said it to Bond when he had Bond strapped to a table and was about to bisect him with an industrial laser. I thought Sean Connery was an outstanding Bond, and the first three movies, "Dr. No," "From Russia with Love," and "Goldfinger" were quite good. It was from then on that they went downhill and got more comic-booky. They got gadget happy, and the story couldn't get under way until Q, the mad scientist, supplied Bond with his newest equipment. "Thunderball" got kind of silly (Bond swimming underwater for long minutes on an oxygen tank no bigger than a cigar stuck in his mouth). "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was not a half bad movie (followed the book fairly well, and it had the immense advantage of costarring Diana Rigg!), but even though George Lazenby seemed to be a competent enough actor, as Bond, he was just lack-luster, especially following a charismatic powerhouse like Connery. I saw a couple of the ones with Roger Moore. Now, I've liked Roger Moore in other things, but one critic put it right where it is. He said, "Roger Moore plays James Bond like he's doing a drawing room comedy." Unconvincing. Then along came Timothy Dalton. I had seen Dalton in the "Jane Eyre" miniseries, as Darnley in "Mary, Queen of Scots," as Heathcliff, and several other things, and I also heard that Dalton like the Ian Fleming novels, thought the movies had become too frivolous, and wanted to return Bond to Fleming's original concept. But apparently both movie folks and fans thought he played Bond much too seriously. I thought he was great, but script-wise, he had only pabulum to work with. Pierce Brosnan? Lightweight. Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Wordsmith Date: 07 Feb 07 - 02:39 AM I'm in the presence of greatness...*awe* I think I deserve a quote or two since I got one right, and I have no answers...although, I'll hazard a guess that: Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Cluin - PM Date: 03 Feb 07 - 02:41 AM - "What are you? Some kind of half-assed astronaut?" comes from "Space Cowboys?" Okay, this is easy: "She's...my daughter, *slap* my sister, *slap* my daughter..." Then: "It's the people! Here's another easy one: "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: JennyO Date: 07 Feb 07 - 10:49 AM "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" is from "Network" with Peter Finch as Howard Beale - a chilling movie, that was way ahead of its time, in my opinion. |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Cluin Date: 07 Feb 07 - 12:46 PM Wordsmith, the "half-assed astronaut" quote isn't from Space Cowboys, but good guess. Try again. ;) I'll guess at one of yours now... "It's the people!" from Soylent Green? But I don't have to guess at the "my sister *slap* my daughter *slap* my sister" one.... "Relax Jake, it's just Chinatown". |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Wordsmith Date: 08 Feb 07 - 01:29 AM Cluin, you are 100 percent correct! I was hoping to catch you with the Soylent Green reference, but you obviously know your SciFi, too. Well done. I'm still thinking: Terms of Endearment? |

Subject: RE: BS: Name The Movie From: Donuel Date: 31 Aug 07 - 11:19 AM Is there a sport left that has NOT been central to a movie's story line and plot. I have seen movies about curling, ping pong and darts. I think the well of new sports to make a movie about has dried up. |
