10:43 am - It's the Movie Meme!
My friends list this morning is riddled with different copies of this meme. It was fun, and I hope that people actually do give it a shot, rather than just paging down past this entry.

Movie meme
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. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.
5. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
6. Those who guess correctly have to do the Meme next!

  1. John Wayne was a fag. -- Repo Man, guessed by [info]jeklnskinsgrl
  2. Insanity runs in my family... It practically gallops. -- Arsenic and Old Lace, guessed by [info]bluntobject
  3. I want my money back. And I want angels to give it to me. And pixies to count it out, and a gnome or a hobbit or an elf to sleep at the foot of my bed, and have - I just want them all over my backyard. But no matter what happens with any of that, I DO want my money back.
  4. Our crusade was such madness that only a real idealist could have thought it up.

8 is from Citizen Kane.

Did I tell you that Citizen Kane was playing at Westgate this week? And that I went to see it with Nick and Jimi? I did. *nods* It may or may not have ended yesterday. You should figure that out.

13. Sleeper, classic Woody Allen

Are all of these quotes on IMDB? Or are they just from the movies in question?

I'm a little surprised nobody got that before you did -- I'd have thought it was pretty recognizable. Either way, you're absolutely right. I like Woody Allen in general, but I think Sleeper came at the height of his abilities as a writer.

And yes, the quotes are copied directly from the Memorable Quotes pages on IMDB.

All correct except for #11. We've talked about the movie it's from, though I'm not sure you've seen it.
