As I said, I might well have seen it. Now that I know the movie and who said the lines, I can get a (dim) mind picture of it. If the scene is that famous, I'm sure someone else will chime in. And we all have different "movie histories." I,for one, have only seen about 30 minutes of "Gone with the Wind." George

I finally googled this. I may, indeed, have seen it, on some old movie station or another. I doubt any "kids" will get it, though, since it was made before I was born! George

My only direct contact with DM was at the Word in Business, I think in 1996. It was the Saturday evening "Do." On my way into the dance hall, I had seen LCM heading back into the hotel proper. Since DM was unattended, I thought she might like to dance, and I asked her. She immediately looked around to find another young lady to dance with me, assuring me that there were plenty to choose from! Maybe she thought it wouldn't have been proper for someone in her "station"; but I honestly think she was just trying to bless me. As a sidenote: in those days, I simply assumed that LCM was headed to the hotel for ministry business. Now I wonder if it was "funny business." George

You clearly know the movie. So feel free to chime in if no one else gets it. Actually, I think my FAVORITE quote was: "Even with all this accumulated knowledge, when will these dummies learn to use a doorknob?" George

Sadly, no. Though I reserve the right to hate myself once it's been revealed. :lol: George

Okay, maybe that LINE was a bit obscure, but the movie isn't. Here's another brief exchange from the same film: "What am I gonna do with you people, huh? I held up my end; I delivered the Blue Boy… What do I get for my triple threat? "Bow! Yield! Kneel!" That kind of stuff closes out of town." "Why do you say this to me… when you know I will kill you for it?" George

Did Abbott and Costello ever meet Robin Hood? That "purple pimpernel" business seems familiar, but I can't place it. And the "Get it--Got it--Good" routine is also familiar, but maybe that's because Burns and Schreiber used it a lot. :unsure: George

"Men in Tights"? George

"Mellow Yellow" by Donovan (with back-up vocal by John Lennon) All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey... George

Human might be right, but I've seen two versions of "The Three Musketeers," and I don't remember those lines from either of them. This seems more "spoofy." I'm going to guess "To Be or Not to Be." George

Human, There are a lot of great, old movies; but most of them aren't really suited to this thread, as very few of us have seen them. Unless it was a real blockbuster like "Gone with the Wind" or frequently quoted like "Casablanca," it's not likely to be remembered from one line. Something like "Tea and Sympathy" is better suited to "Name that Flick," where several lines can (and should) be given. Even there, though, you're likely to "stump the panel" with any movie made before 1960 (or 1970!). Let's try this one: "General, would you like to step outside?" George

Unlike the Marley tune, this one seems at least vaguely familiar; but I'm still not getting it from one line! :unsure: George

Fred Ward Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins Joel Grey George

Sigourney Weaver Ghostbusters Rick Moranis George

Not familiar. And I don't know that Stones tune, either! George

Reminds me of a line from "Bull Durham" (when Kevin Costner tells a batter what pitch he's calling in order to humble Tim Robbins); but I doubt that that's it. George

Jim Belushi Red Heat Ahhnold George

Mr. Holland's Opus Glenne Headly Dirty Rotten Scoundrels George

I'm getting bugged driving up and down the same old strip. I've gotta find a new place where the kids are hip. George

"Love Shack" B-52's George

Well, yeah...but the cost of living is low (especially since you can't get off grounds and there's nothing to do, anyway)...and you're in a low tax bracket! :) George

I remember the teepee, as well. Cooler than most tents, that's for sure! Since the ROA was cancelled years ago, the guy wouldn't be showing up, anyway. Are you sure TWI has a rule against teepees? :wacko: George

On the other hand, you only posted one scene. If no one gets it from my first set of clues, I give another set in a couple of days. Maybe someone was at the concession stand when the scene you quoted appeared. :) George

OK. That got rid of the "toolbar in the middle" bug again, but you're right: I can't see posters' names or avatars. (Though it's fun to guess who they are by gender, number of posts, etc!) George

This is very well put. I think that this conveys the feelings of a great number of people here. Jesus taught us to forgive, forgive, forgive. But he never said excuse, excuse, excuse. What's good about being alive, Ex? You overcame! George
