If I am watching any Star Trek movie or Star Wars movie with my husband he knows the lines by heart because he has watch them so many damn times he has the lines memorized.

So, how many of you movie freaks know the lines of a movie by heart and can recite them as you watch it?


OMG. . .it drives me nuts and I am proud that I do not have this talent.:wink:

My subject line is all wrong sorry. . .I hope you got the idea.

Talent? You mean watching something so many times you learn the lines? I don't know if that qualifies as "talent." I mean, I know the title to all 79 Star Trek original series episodes, AND I MADE NO ATTEMPT TO MEMORIZE THEM! That was just a function of seeing something so many times it sticks.

I know what Kah is getting at. Most of the time my wife finds it quaint.

It's like the whole VH1 pop culture world series thing. Some people just absorb "classic" lines from movie and tv shows. It's not necessarily that you've seen it several times, you just know the lines.

I'm probably not the only one here who can rattle off about 20 different Dr. Evil catchphrases just from the first Austin Powers movie alone.

Yes, any movie counts.

I just find it entertaining when he does it.

Only if you sing it the way Shirley does. :D

Well, with always helps, but if you can't get one, just hold your arms outstretched and gesture and enunciate madly while singing, that will be adequate. :)

"Have fun storming the castle!"
"You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
"It's possible, pig."

And, of course, the entirety of Holy Grail. You don't want to watch that movie with the Neglet family in the room, you won't hear anything on the screen.

I think I could probably recite the entire movie Major League if you were to mute the sound. I don't know why, but i've always loved that movie.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.


I used to be able to recite all the lines (even the hard to hear background lines) by heart.


Now it's mostly Army of Darkness and Big Trouble In Little China.

Some select movies and TV episodes. As long as I don't go overboard, my family indulges me.

I have a .wav soundbyte from that movie as the "finish scanning" alert in when I run Adaware (instead of their default farting sound):

Lo Pan: "Now, this pisses me off to no end!" :angry

As much as I love Monty Python, I keep the quotes from that to a minimum. It's soooooo annoying when someone quotes them, because they usually do it several decibels too loud, in a crowded marketplace. :eek:

And evvvery Thanksgiving, I have to put up with at least one family member quoting Dan Ackroyd's Julia Childs impersonation from SNL, "Saaaave the Liver!", as gravy is being made. :rolleyes:

My sister used to watch the Princess Bride 2 times a day. She would do that for about a month, then my dad and I would hide the tape. I don't know why we never destroyed it, but we didn't. She would be oblivious to its absence until she found it. Then she would scream and cry and resume her twice a day viewing schedule. That started about 15 years ago. I can finally enjoy watching it again after a 10 year dry spell.

As for the Holy Grail.... well, that was my repeat viewing flick. Every time my parents rented a movie, I had to have MP as well. I've probably seen it over 100 times, and it's still funny. I got the collector's edition dvd from my mom last Christmas. It's just sad that no one else will watch it with me. :ohwell:

Oh, also quite a few lines from "Airplane" are heard in our house, especially "don't call me Shirley," "looks like I picked the wrong day to quite drinking," and, for some strange unknown reason, "we both know what this is really about--you want me to have an abortion!" :lol:

As a way to pass the time working in a scene shop at Coastal Carolina U, a coworker and I would do the quote game.

Then when the internet was in its infancy and IRC chat was huge for us at Pitt, there was a couple of channels that did Link games which were six degrees of Kevin Bacon without the Bacon.


I've always been a big quoter.

"Chock to the left. Isn't that J.J. McClure?"
"He's nothing. Don't worry about him. It's the Blimp next to him! The Blimp! When he puts on that mask, he'll blow your goddamn doors off! "

The two movies that come to mind, outside of Star Wars fare,
is Moonstruck ("I lost my hand! I lost my bride!"),
and Raising Arizona ("Boy? You got a panty on your head.")

Weird that both are Nic Cage flicks. :ohwell:

And oh yeah, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,
but for me, the only lines worth quoting are Khan's.
Everything he says is gold. :cool:
He could read the Yellow Pages, and I'd be riveted. :D

Hah, in the case of Jakester it would get tedious listening to his reciting of movie lines from the films he watches....I mean, after the first few minutes of incessant sexual moaning, it would be booooring....




...unless he started the sheep sounds.....I can listen to him make that sound all damn day!
