The Movie Line Game

Post by Iryssa »

I don't know if there's been a game like this here before, but I was inspired to start this up by another forum I belong to.
The idea is to guess which line comes from which movie (and let's not make these paragraphs, people...two or three sentences at the most, unless you're giving hints). Whoever guesses it right, puts forth the next one-liner, and so on and so forth.

Okay, let's start with:

"Not unlike escaping mother's womb. God, what a memory!"
"A choice made freely is stronger than one compelled"
- Stephen R. Donaldson's The Wounded Land

To be honest, it sounds like Stuie in Family Guy!
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.

8O You're right.

(Though I'll stick with my original guess.)

Mind if I butt in with another question while everyone is thinking about it (I guess we can reasonably write off Throw Mama From the Train as the answer)?

It's one of my favourite lines from the movie.
Mine:
"I have never seen blood crystals as anemic as these. They may be mental giants but physically, by our standards, they must be very primitive. "

I think is sounds like the old 50s War of the Worlds. I just watched again a while ago.

Thank you, Iryssa!

Let's see now...
