Answers to the Movie Game

Alright, folks. Here they are, in all their glory: the titles to the movies those wonderful quotations came from. Each of these movies made an impact on my life in some way. Most I've seen too many times to count, but #8 I've only seen once; the line just stuck with me and I've been using it for several years.
  1. "Don't make me beat you with this leg of mine that no longer works!"
    • This comes from the fantastically amazing movie Surf Ninjas. Don't believe the star-rating; it's awesome... if you're watching with the right people, and just want the hilarious dialogue.
  2. "You gentlemen mind if I take this little 'ol jug of mountain water with me?"
    • Hot Lead and Cold Feet. Jim Dale (frequently known in the U.S. as the narrator for the Harry Potter audiobooks) triple-stars in this movie as old Jasper Bloodshy and his twin sons.
  3. "You know, Joe Jr.'s still single."--"Shocker."
    • While You Were Sleeping. I've used this movie to convince guys that chick flicks are awesome. Also, I feel like I married into this family. Family dinners are awesome. (And the paper boy who accidentally eats it is one of the best moments in film history.)
  4. "Wise man say, 'Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.'"
  5. "The mouse? He's left our house! To ease the pain... he's down the drain!"
    • Ladyhawke. This one is a little more obscure, but well worth the time to find. It's the first movie I remember my mom ever buying on DVD.
  6. "I've been using fruity soaps, Maggie."
    • Waking Ned Devine. Watch this one when you're in the mood for British humor, and when you have people with you who will laugh at British humor.
  7. "Girl or not, I can still whip you!"
    • Ever After. In my opinion, one of the best Cinderella movies out there.
  8. "But the talking mice told me it was the wrong girl!"
    • Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time. This one I've only seen once, and don't really feel any need to watch again. Watching it with my college roommates was really entertaining, though, and this part of the movie had us falling off our seats with laughter. I've been quoting the line ever since.
  9. "Llama face!"
  10. "Don't just stand there, do something!"--"What for? There's only three little ones."
  11. "The hospital is fine except for this wicked nurse. She's got the face of a dragon's butt."
    • Alright, so there are three ninja movies on this list--my family was really into karate; what can I say? This one is from 3 Ninjas Kick Back.
  12. Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars. (We rarely bothered quoting the new ones.)

  1. I LOVE your movie list. Cinderella 3 is really an under-appreciated movie. I laughed SO hard while I watched that one. :)

    1. I felt like they didn't spend much time on the animation, etc, but someone sure had fun writing it. ;-)

  2. I somehow missed the last post, but it made me laugh! Your family would get along very well with Mahon's. They are ALL OVER the obscure movie quotes. It's to the point now where after 6 years of knowing Mahon *I* quote lines from movies I've never seen!!! Also - I didn't get more than about a third of your list, but I DID get the llama face one (and laughed). We quote the movie ALL THE TIME around here. "A llama??? But he's supposed to be DEAD!" "Yeah....weird."
