One Last Lemming Plunges Into the Sea
Remember that movie line meme everyone was doing last week? I finally thought of a theme!
1. Pick one dozen movies that are ones that you have special feelings about.
2. Pick a few lines of dialogue that mean something to you.
3. As people guess the film, strike out that entry.
4. If possible, after the film is guessed, explain why that movie made the list (reason will be the same every time for mine).
1. "I came across time for you, _____."
The Terminator. Guessed by karet.
2. "I said it was formal, kid."
The Goodbye Girl. Guessed by my anonymous brother (but which one?).
3. "I can't leave. Because, for the first time in my life, I got my foot stuck in the door."
The Music Man. Guessed by suzy_gwen.
4. "This isn't supposed to happen. I've spent nine years structuring my life so this didn't happen."
sex, lies, and videotape. Guessed by mrs_bombadil.
5. "Yeah I know. But then you know there's always drums, and bass, and maybe even one day a tambourine."
10 Things I Hate About You. Guessed by lendolyn, mrsronweasley, and phoenixsong13.
6. "There isn't going to be any Baroness. You see, you can't marry someone when you're... in love with someone else."
The Sound of Music. Guessed by redwood7, suzy_gwen, mrsronweasley, soupytwist, and phoenixsong13.
7. "So I figured since I loved you so much, it'd be a good idea if I didn't see you anymore."
Grosse Pointe Blank. Guessed by piperx.
8. "____. I... I love you." "Me too. Don't tell _____." "Okay."
(After some complaints, edited to add more dialogue.)
Benny & Joon. Guessed by themorningstarr.
9. "But I hope to make it up to you by going through with it now, as originally planned."
The Philadelphia Story. Guessed by karet (sort of) and jiminyc.
10. "'Do you love me?' she whispered. 'Do you love me?' It would not be tonight. The answer was...no."
The Sure Thing. Guessed by lendolyn and mrsronweasley.
Edited to add two more movies:
11. "I got released."
Bull Durham. Guessed by the incomparable and incredible connielane, who immediately got almost all of them, but didn't want to spoil it for everyone else. :p
12. "Look, you don't know me from Adam. But I was a better man with you as a woman than I ever was with a woman as a man. Know what I mean?"
Tootsie. Guessed by redwood7 and phoenixsong13.
Guess away! Thanks for playing!
