Movie Meme - Celeste

Some of these should be gimmes....

1. "We lived on a farm! And I got lonely! We were just a couple of crazy kids!"
Club Dread - guessed by Lissa

2. "I like to grease the highboard better than anyone and if it was just four or five guys, I'd have no problem with that, but when I come home and find her doing the two-backed beast with the entire church council, well by God, that's going too far - especially since half the council is women! That's when I take a stand. That's when I'm counted as a man! That's when I throw my balls up over my shoulder and charge into the fire!"
Ed and His Dead Mother - guessed finally by Anna

3. "The Living Dead and the dying living are all the same. Cut from the same cloth. But disposing of dead people is a public service, whereas you're in all sorts of trouble if you kill someone while they're still alive."
Cemetary Man - guessed by Lissa

4. "As Bertrand Russell once said, 'The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation.' I think we can all appreciate the relevance of that now."
"Was that on a beer mat?"
"Yeah, it was Guinness Extra Cold."
"I won't say anything."
"Thanks."

Revenge of the Nerds - guessed by Livvy

6. "Houses don't have memories."
Amityville Horror - guessed by Livvy

7. "Stand back boy! This calls for divine intervention!"
Dead Alive - guessed by Anna

8. "Let me out. Let me out of here. Get me the hell out of here. What's the matter with you people? I was joking! Don't you know a joke when you hear one? HA-HA-HA-HA. Jesus Christ, get me out of here! Open this goddamn door or I'll kick your rotten heads in! Mommy!"
Young Frankenstein - guessed by Anna

9. "What do we do with this guy?"
"I promised the professor that we take this guy alive. After you blow him all to hell, put one in his leg so we can tell the professor we tried."

Jason X - guessed by Anna

10. "Are we awake?"
"We're not sure. Are we black?"
"Yes, we are."
"Then we're awake, but very puzzled."

Blazing Saddles - guessed by Anna

11. "Where am I?"
"Back from the dead. I've saved you."
"My God! How?"
"By magic, of course. With a kiss, because I like you."

Flash Gordon - only guessed by Russ, despite the number of hints I gave

12. "You hate that job anyway. I don't see why you don't just quit."
"Because I want to fit in."

American Psycho - guessed by Livy

13. "...I'm not a very good shot...but the Samaritan here uses really big bullets."
Hellboy - guessed by Anna

14. "Hello, and welcome to Amsterdam's finest and most luxurious youth hostel. We feature one medium sized room containing 70 beds which can sleep up to 375 bodies a night. There is no bathroom. Nor is there one nearby. If you do not wish to have your valuables stolen I suggest destroying them or discarding them right now. You can also try hiding your valuables. In your anus. This will deter some but of course not all thieves. Once you are inside, the doors are chained and locked from the outside. They will not be opened again until morning, no matter what. Should a fire occur due to our faulty wiring or, uh, the fireworks factory upstairs you will be incinerated along with the valuables that you have hidden in your anus. Tips are greatly appreciated."
Eurotrip - guessed by Livvy

15. "Look, there's no point in arguing about this, all right? We need a solution. We need... we need to get some food over there."
"Yeah, OK, I have an idea. We draw straws and the loser runs across the lot with a ham sandwich."

Dawn of the Dead - guessed by Anna

Olivia said...

LOL...I didn't seem anna's 10 comment before I posted...oops.

Celeste said...

8. is WRONG!
13. is WRONG!

14. - i'll give it to you, but you've gotta pick which one. :)

Orianna said...

8. Is of course Young Frankenstein, I'm such a fool.

13. well i'm stumped.

Olivia said...

14. Hostel.

Celeste said...

14 - wrong pick. :)

13 - Livvy had better get that one, since it's one of her movies as well!

Orianna said...

13. Hellboy!!!

Olivia said...

Dammit...I was just going to guess Hellboy.

14. Euro Trip!!! :-D

Orianna said...

is 4 Slither?
11. Enchanted?
3. Fido?

I'm just grasping at straws now.

Celeste said...

lol. and it shows, too. :)
4 - is not slither, though it's a funny horror movie, too.
11 - I've never even seen Enchanted.... this one is a classic
3 - not Fido, although I thought about using Fido. :)

Olivia said...

3. Delicatessan???

Orianna said...

11. Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Man it is getting hard not to google.

Olivia said...

HINTS Celeste :)!!!

Celeste said...

3 - still wrong.... hint - "What if Raimi learned everything he knew about directing from Nietzche?"

11 - not Monty Python. Sci-fi/Fantasy. One of the most famous of them all.

Celeste said...

And I can't believe no one has guessed #1 yet.
Hints for the others -
2. involves the dead
4. also involves the dead
5. 80's classic comedy

Orianna said...

5. Ummmmm Mannequin?

Orianna said...

4. Shaun of the Dead
2. (I have no idea but you said it involves the dead so I am guessing one of your favorite zombie movies that i have never seen) Ed and His Dead Mother.

Olivia said...

5. Is it one of the Nerds movies? Sounds intellectual...

Olivia said...

4. Is is Shaun of the Dead? That's a funny dead film...

Olivia said...

I think 3 and 11 are lost causes...:(

Alicia said...

Anna guessed the 2 I knew.

Olivia said...

OMG...Is 11 that one with Tom Cruise in it? Legend or something?

Olivia said...

Dammit Anna...why don't I read your comments?!!

Celeste said...

5 - IS one of the Nerds movies. :) Which one?

Celeste said...

11 - is not a Tom Cruise movie. It's about a football player turned "Savior of the Universe" and if that doesn't clue you in, there's no way you'll get it.

Olivia said...

5. Let's try the sequel first...Revenge of the Nerds.

Olivia said...

11. Red Dawn?!?!

Celeste said...

lol.... Revenge of the Nerds was the original, not the sequel, but you are correct. :)

c'mon.... someone has to guess #1... we've all watched it so many times together.

Celeste said...

11 - savior of the universe, not of Texas! lol

Olivia said...

Revenge of the Nerds was the Original?!? It just sounds like a sequel though :)!

Alicia said...

I know what 3 is, but I can't think of the name. There's a weird guy who lives on the cemetary digging graves and he falls in love with a corpse bride. Then she shows up alive all over the place. And he has a weird little sidekick guy that never talks. It may be called The Cemetary... Man Celeste loves this move, I had to watch it quite a few times. At the end the drive to the end of the road and make some philisophical comment about it being the end of the road.

Alicia said...

Maybe Cemetary Man or something like that.

Celeste said...

3 is Cemetary Man ... and since Lissa had the title, although it was more of a "Clark!" from National Lampoon's European Vacation answer, I'll give it to her. :)

Alicia said...

oh gosh, 1, kids like goats. crazy kids! It was so much funnier once you get it. Give another hint to finish jogging my memory.

Alicia said...

1 Super Troopers!

Alicia said...

No. Darn it! the other one. Club Dread.

Celeste said...

Dammit.... since all that's left for you guys to guess is #11 - one last hint. The soundtrack is by Queen. And Russ got it right off the bat.

Orianna said...

Highlander?

Celeste said...

Nope.... okay, one last hint. Only one name actor you'd probably recognize, and it was: Timothy Dalton

Celeste said...

Dammit, one more hint.... Dad had a cheesy porno version of number 11 on betamax....

Orianna said...

I know the answer . . . but I used Google and concluded that there was no earthly way I would have figured it out without help, since I've never seen it.

Olivia said...

yeah...I know it too...but I cheated on it as well. I've never seen or even heard of it :(. But, I have heard of the character I guess...I just don't know what from. Maybe he was in Toy Story?

Celeste said...

Man.... I can't believe none of you guys had ever seen Flash Gordon! Credit will go to Russ then. :)
