#2 = The Man with Two Brains - Dr Huhruhur, as played by Steve Martin (best Steve Martin line EVER!)

#4 = Marathon Man - Szell (I can't remember the first name of the character) played by Laurence Olivier

#7 = Dodgeball - Patches O'Houlihan, played by Rip Torn

#9 = Aliens. The character was Deitrich, but a gun put to my head couldn't remind me of her real name. I only remember Deitrich, because she had the same name as a Barney Miller character.

#10 = Demolition Man, I don't remember the character's name, but it's Sylvester Stallone, so the character's name never really matters.

Oh heck! I just realized #6 is Ghostbusters (the thing that stuck in my mind was Zuul, as in "Oh Zuul, you nut!" we had a friend named Dooley, and always used to say "Oh, Dool, you nut." Odd how these things stick). Since it is Ghostbusters, it has to be Rick Moranis! His character was Lewis.

Correct all around. Added it into your total.

I have a Zuul quote that sticks with me, too: "There is no Dana, only Zuul". This comes up in conversations with me more often than you might suspect, typically when I am looking for something that and cannot find it.

Work Colleague: "Murray, hand me a toner cartridge, will you?"
Me [looking around, then speaking in a gravelly voice}: ...there is no toner, only Zuul.

Correct! 3 points for you, plus a bonus 5 points for telling me I can re-screen comments.

Total: 8 points

And yeah, you suck. That's what you get for being all exercisey-hikey-swimmy-bootcampy, traveling-around-outdoors-and-having-a-lifey, instead of honing your movie trivia lore by slowly turning into the lumpiest part of your couch, like me.

I hope you've learned a valuable life lesson from all this.

Hey! I've watched a lot of shit in my time :) Just so happens that I've not seen too many of the movies you've quoted... But I have wasted countless hours on the couch. Truly!!
