Time for another round of
movie trivia!
This time, I've named the post in honor of the game played by yours truly and my BFF's daughter
when we were up in the mountains of North Carolina last month. In the game, you have to collect cards from four film groups: character(s), cast, plot, and quote. Trust me, it was pretty hard, but we had fun trying to help each other guess!
Here, as before, I am offering quotes to be matched up with their respective movies.
The point, as always, is to
have fun!
The Quotes:
A) "Leave the monster under the bed?"
B) "Be the person she already thinks you are."
C) "Make yourself useful - and don't shoot Pops."
D) "Old, not obsolete."
E) "You see only birth. I see only death."
F) "I couldn't remember if death or love is the solution for defeating the empire."
G) "I'm just some kind of box you had to check off, aren't I?"
H) "You take care of more people than the Red Cross."
I) "Less Talk. You're too good-looking to be insecure."
J) "It's been a while since I got you to second base."
K) "Do not, my friends, allow yourself to become addicted to water."
L) "It's a slippery slope."
M) "Well, I was born yesterday.'
N) "It isn't personal, it's programming."
O) "I danced with the devil - and I liked it!"
P) "How can I help it if I feel ticklish while wrestling?"
Q) "Fear excuses surrender."

1) Surprisingly, it's F ! There isn't even a superhero in the entire film!
2) P! (Something that being tickled may lead you to do!)
3) O! (Something you might expect from a blonde chick, as I once was!)
4) H, and said with a sneer, as a putdown. Odd how it comes off as a compliment!
5) Q - quite right! Totally different meaning when the three negative factors are read as a single sentence!
6) C - as I'm sure you did!
7) 'K, you evil brute. Though everyone knows we all need water to survive!
8) N-tirely true for robots and machines!

10) A, kids, be careful out in the real world!
11) B true to yourself, always!
12) 'M is one smart cookie, isn't he?
13) J..ust kidding, dear!
14) D, as in dead as a doorknob, buddy, if you don't watch out!
15) E gads, what a thing to say to a new daddy!
16) I see what she was after! Heck, everybody saw what she was after!
17) 'L is where that slippery slope will lead, so be careful!
Odd, isn't it?
I did not deliberately set up the matching to allow some puns and jokes along the way, but it certainly worked out nicely, didn't it?
Hope you had fun! While I was watching the movies in the various cinemas, I tried to find quotes that might serve as mini-synopses of the plots.
How did I do?
