...at a thousand feet per second.
GIP-iddy-do. I don't have any prizes, but someone must guess the song I used for this icon.
And now, answers to last night's random movie quotage fun.
1. "We have no food, we have no jobs, our pets' HEADS are falling off!"
Most of you who answered got this. It's from "Dumb And Dumber". One of my favorite quotes to randomly shout.
2. "Luckily, right at that moment, an unconscious Argentinian fell through the roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun."
I guess this was too easy, but BEST. QUOTE. EVAH. From "Moulin Rouge".
3. "The truth is that you're a quite, 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, a little bit crazy, a little bit bad, but, hey, don't us girls just love that?"
I am proud of those who knew it was from "Trainspotting". Diane's speech, best response to a pickup line in history.
4. "Bumblebee tuna!"
I'm sad [devastated, really ;)] that none of you recognize this quote. It's from "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls". Ace gets introduced to the chief of the tribe, who greets him, saying something like "bumblebee tuna". He then goes to every tribesman and says "Bumblebee tuna! Bumblebee tuna! Your balls are showing. Bumblebee tuna!" I am so juvenile. I find it amusing that I can be such an indie art-house elitist film bitch, but also rave over Mike Myers/Jim Carrey movies.
5. "Well I'm here to kick some ass."
Ah, poor Orli's-character. All you wanted was to kick some ass. Instead, you fell from a chopper. "Black Hawk Down".
6. "Your eyes are cruel...just as I can be so cruel."
I am concerned at the amount of people who appear to have not seen "Labyrinth". David Bowie...tights...mmmm...
7. "I'm the Marsha fucking Brady of the upper East Side and sometimes I want to kill myself for it. No, I don't enjoy being a part of the weaker sex and for that reason everyone around me is going to suffer."
Yes, "Cruel Intentions" is my guilty pleasure, so what?
8. "Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in."
"American Beauty". I fucking LOVE this movie. And when Ricky says this, it feels like my own heart is going to cave in.
9. "You keep saying that word. I don't think it means what you think it does."
Inconceivable! "The Princess Bride" is a classic.
10."What's deja vu? What's deja vu? What's deja vu? What's deja vu? What's deja vu?
I guess it's a good thing that none of you recognized this. It's from "Spiceworld". Posh says it. ::hangs head::
11. "And what did you feel upon not receiving these hungry, hungry, hippos?"
"Regret." "What else makes you feel regret?" Okay, so I have the entire script of "Donnie Darko" memorized.
12. "Now that's what I call a close encounter!"
Whoo! "Independence Day", with the wise-crackin' Will Smith. I'm really happy he didn't rap the theme song for that.
13. "He's quite clean."
"A Hard Day's Night", people! No one remembers Paul's grandfather? They said this line around ten times through the movie.
14. "I practice with them three hours a day!"
Yeah, I knew you all would get them, but I couldn't resist. "Pirates of the Carribbean".
15. "How many people are having an orgasm right now? Fifteen."
Even funnier is the shots of the people actually having orgasms. "Amelié".
16. "Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet."
So that quote just screams Agent Smith, doesn't it. Oh well. You all got it, it's from "The Matrix".
17. "In the jungle you must wait, 'til the dice read five or eight."
You people need to brush up on your "Jumanji".
18. " Mr. Pitts, rise above your name."
Oh Captain my Captain, "Dead Poets Society" prevented me from watching "That 70's Show" until recently. Because Red is played by the same actor as the [seriously violent expletives deleted] father and I hate him so much. ::cries::
19. "Oh, yes. You will. Yes, you will. You'll meet some good-for-nothing, no-account idiot, and you'll fall in love with him, and work and live and die for him. I know you will. It's your way. And I'll have to stand by and see it. Well, I'll be hanged if I do!"
I am the biggest Jo/Laurie shipper EVAH. "Little Women".
20. "It's the international sign of the donut!"
Again, it's probably a good thing that none of you got this one. It's from "Mars Attacks!" The context is too hard to explain.

Was out all day today. Went birthday shopping with la mamacita, as I will be leaving soon and won't be back until my birthday. Then we all went out to see a production of "The Merry Wives of Windsor" which was just fucking insane. More on that later. Let's just say that the french Doctor Whats-his-face was a cross between Fez and Jack Mc Farland.
And as a goodnight gift, I'm just going to leave one last quote for you all.
"You know what this room really needs? A giant, oversized poster of Atlantic City. Oh look! You have one!"
I keep looking at my icon, and it's making me sad and shmoopy. I think I need to watch "Chosen" again.
