Not sure if this belongs here or in Out of Control, so I put it here anyway:

1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it's guessed.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.

1. "I am Jack's complete lack of surprise."

2. "If I travel all the way there and find out that you're a liar, I'll find you and take more than my money back, is that alright with you?"

3. "It ain't the way I wanted it! I can handle things! I'm smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... I'm smart and I want respect!"

4. "So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice."

5. "Mein Führer! I can walk!"

6. "Generally you don't see that kind of behavior in a major appliance."

7. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go on an overnight drunk, and in 10 days I'm going to set out to find the shark that ate my friend and destroy it. Anyone who wants to tag along is more than welcome."

8. "There's a lot of things about me that you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you shouldn't understand. You don't want to get mixed up with a guy like me. I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel."

9. "Wow. This is graphic."

10. "I'm Agent Johnson, this is Special Agent Johnson. No relation."

11. "I'll tell you what I'm blathering about... I've got information man! New shit has come to light! And shit... man, she kidnapped herself. Well sure, man. Look at it... a young trophy wife, in the parlance of our times, you know, and she, uh, uh, owes money all over town, including to known pornographers, and that's cool... that's, that's cool, I'm, I'm saying, she needs money, man. And of course they're going to say that they didn't get it, because... she wants more, man! She's got to feed the monkey, I mean uh... hasn't that ever occurred to you, man? Sir?"

12. "When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

13. "I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem *may* have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being *crushed* by a *dwarf*. Alright? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object."

14. "Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines "

15. "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid."

right on 6, 8, 13, 14, and 15.
 
Fight Club, There Will be Blood, Caddyshack ,Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Big Trouble in Little China, Airplane.

The one with Agent Johnson eludes me, though I can hear the line being spoken.

The one with the appliance...probably seen it but don't remember.
 
#2 isn't There Will Be Blood???? I have this image of Plainview saying that to Not!Eli after he tells Plainview about the land.

I see laz agrees with me. Double-check my work, LMP! I want full credit for my answer! :wink:
 
Yes, it is TWBB. I combined that answer with Joey's post. My mistake.

Yes on the ones you listed.

Agent Johnson's in an action movie.
 
This is a cool game, but is it going to be confusing with multiple people posting their quotes and then answering the guesses all in the same thread?

Is there a way to have one person go at a time, until all the quotes are correctly guessed, or after a certain amount of time the list-maker reveals the answers to those that weren't guessed?

It can be one-person-at-a-time, or the post is going to have to be quoted each time.

No one's gotten 9 or 10 yet.
 
10 is Die Hard.

Okay, here's a replacement quote for 9, from the same movie:

"Here it is - Boner Jams '03. It’s a mixtape of all my favorite boner scenes in the summer of 2003."
 
Okay, get yer brains ready!

1. What do they think I am? Dumb or something? Why, I make more money than - than - than Calvin Coolidge! Put together!

2. Character 1: Don't take that tone with me young man. I fought the war for your sort.
Character 2: I bet you're sorry you won.

3. And then he calls me a jerk and says the last guy who thought he was a jerk was dead now. So I don't say nothin' and he says, "What do ya think about that?" So I says, "Well, that don't sound like too good a deal for him then."

4. If we're all ready on the Dark Side of the Moon... play the five tones. Close Encounters Of the Third Kind, guessed correctly by lazarus

5. I tried taking pictures, but they were so mediocre. I guess every girl goes through a photography phase. You know, horses... taking pictures of your feet. Lost In Translation, guessed correctly by lazarus

6. My fellow Austrians, I shall not be seeing you again perhaps for a very long time. I would like to sing for you now... a love song. I know you share this love. I pray that you will never let it die. The Sound of Music, guessed correctly by LMP

7. You want to talk to God? Let's go see him together, I've got nothing better to do. Raiders of the Lost Ark, guessed correctly by LMP

8. The Irish are the blacks of Europe. And Dubliners are the blacks of Ireland. And the Northside Dubliners are the blacks of Dublin. So say it once, say it loud: I'm black and I'm proud. The Commitments, guessed correctly by lazarus

9. Where you going?... Oh, you men are all alike. Seven or eight quick ones and then you're out with the boys to boast and brag. YOU BETTER KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Oh... I think I love him. Young Frankenstein, guessed correctly by Lila64

10. So okay, I don't want to be a traitor to my generation and all but I don't get how guys dress today. I mean, come on, it looks like they just fell out of bed and put on some baggy pants and take their greasy hair - ew - and cover it up with a backwards cap and like, we're expected to swoon? I don't think so Clueless, guessed correctly by lazarus

11. The only true currency in this bankrupt world... is what you share with someone else when you're uncool.

12. I find the key is to think of a day as units of time, each unit consisting of no more than thirty minutes. Full hours can be a little bit intimidating and most activities take about half an hour. Taking a bath: one unit, watching countdown: one unit, web-based research: two units, exercising: three units, having my hair carefully disheveled: four units. It's amazing how the day fills up, and I often wonder, to be absolutely honest, if I'd ever have time for a job; how do people cram them in?

13. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long, you're just sad that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?

14. White boys always get the Oscar. It's a known fact. Did I ever get a nomination? No! You know why? Cause I hadn't played any of them slave roles, and get my ass whipped. That's how you get the nomination. A black dude who plays a slave that gets his ass whipped gets the nomination, a white guy who plays an idiot gets the Oscar. That's what I need, I need to play a retarded slave, then I'll get the Oscar. Bowfinger, guessed correctly by LMP

15. Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe? The Breakfast Club, guessed correctly by LMP
