The Quote Game

[cpawfan]

I'm hoping this game will be able to go on for a while. The rules are simple. We will start with a quote from a movie, TV show, book, speech, song etc and you will guess who said it. The person that guesses correctly will then get to leave the next quote.

I realize that google can make this game extremely easy, so please don't "cheat" by just searching for the quote.


Starting quote

"Stop whatcha doin' 'cause I'm about to ruin the image and the style that ya used to."

The Humpy Dance is your chance to do the Hump!
C'mon and do me baby.

"You and me ain't done, Zeke"

 

[pegs]

I have no clue, but I'm gonna go out on a whim and guess Michael Jordan.

No, it is from the TV show Lost

"Ancient Chinese secret"

 

[shookem]

It is an old TV commercial and while cleaning was involved in the dialog, the product wasn't a cleaning product.

 

[shookem]

i'm not sure i've seen the ad but believe it was used as an example in a class i took.

i could guess for days but we'll wait for someone who knows to come along.

Downy? Pre-bear era?

 

[cpawfan]

The manufacture of this product is called upon by women to take them away

 

[AEM]

Calgon

 

[cpawfan]

Yep

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This commercial was for Calgon water softener.

A Caucasian woman with an American accent asks "Mr. Lee" (played by Calvin Jung), a laundry shop owner, how he gets her shirts so clean. He replies, with what appears to be a Chinese accent, "Ancient Chinese secret."

The scene changes to Mrs. Lee, who is in an adjoining room. Mrs. Lee appears ethnically Chinese, but she speaks English with a thoroughly American accent, and explains to the audience that her husband's "ancient Chinese secret" is that he uses Calgon water softener.

Mrs. Lee ultimately gives the secret away by sticking her head into the front room where Mr. Lee and the customer are standing, and shouts "We need more Calgon!" To which the customer replies "Ancient Chinese secret, huh?"

The actress playing Mrs. Lee, Anne Miyamoto, was actually Japanese-American.

Calgon water softener adverts in the United Kingdom, Ireland and in the rest of Europe promote the product solely on the basis of saving washing machines from breakdown rather than any benefits to the clothing in the wash, although the products on sale are identical to those in the United States. In Portugal, the Calgon advertisement jingle is the same popular one, for almost 30 years. In Italy Calgon is called Calfort.</div>

Here's an easy one, so we can get to GMJIgga's:

"Can't fall in love? But a life without love, that's terrible. "

[cpawfan]

I'm married, so I can acknowledge that I know that one

Moulin Rouge

 

[AEM]

Yeah, that's it. Being married myself, I can freely admit my Baz Luhrman fandom...

Been waiting to plop on Jigga's, great movie: Army of Darkness.

Such an awesome movie.

Finally one I know! The Princess Bride was a favorite amongst my siblings growing up. I never really cared to learn what the dude's name was, but the "you killed my father prepare to die" part is hard to remember.

Ok here's this exchange:

"We should do it. "
"Do what? "
"Get married. Have a wedding. "
"No, I can't take the time off work. "
"Your father practically owns the company. You can do anything you like, silly. "
"I don't want to talk about it. "
"I hate that job anyway. I don't see why you just don't quit. "
"Because I want to fit in. "

That is too easy! It's 'The Princess Bride". (Read the book if you haven't, BTW.)


Try this one.

"Son, in 35 years of religious study, I have only come up with two hard incontrovertible facts: there is a God, and I'm not Him."

That's from American Psycho (which you just watched the other day).

And that's a book you should definitely avoid if you have a weak stomach or do not want to read chapter after chapter filled with descriptions of late '80s consumer products in excruciating detail.

I don't want to ruin the game by answering this when it seems your quote might be out of order, but this is from one of my favorite movies of all time. It's how everyone feels at times, which makes it so funny.

Alright, lets move past the quote from the movie Rudy

"I went down to the sacred store
Where I’d heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn’t play."
