Movie Challenge Y'all!!!


Think of a movie you love and post some dialogue...

Offer a hint as to the context, the lighting or soundtrack, describe a scene...
Other posters have to figure out the movie
I will start:
A few dudes are going fishing...
'Were going to need a bigger boat'

reply

- "...may you live forever."

reply

Highlander?

reply

Wait. Is it 300? That movie is quite a surreal trip, don't remember much of it but I do recall some over-the-top moments like the messenger being kicked down a water well, the immortal subject of many parodies and jokes.

reply

Yep, that it's!

The problem of kicking all those humans down that well is that the water will be ruined.

reply

- "Put out that fire, Chief."

reply

Backdraft

reply

No. This fire breaks out on a boat---that's not big enough.

reply

If it's "Jaws!", that's one of five right. I'll take it!

reply

Yep. And he delivers the line so matter-of-factly.

reply

"...of guts and stamina in the history of the ring. Ladies and gentlemen,,,we have a split decision."

reply

Rocky

reply

Yep, "Sir David Thayer." The kicker? He's holding 3-THREE-3 scorecards when he delivers it. That's Stallone.

reply

- "You don't stop this fight. No matter what. No---matter---what."

Apollo Creed
in Rocky 4

reply

Absolutely. He states this to "Rocky" while in the corner after the 1st round barrage. He then eases back into the turnbuckle and searches for his wife in the crowd before he goes out for the last time. She's risen, her eyes filled with tears. This is a Sylvester Stallone direct hit. A remembrance to the relationship between these two characters. It's not about "Creed" & his manager now, nor about "Creed" and "Rocky" now, nor even "Drago" & "Creed" now. No, it's about a husband & wife who we've seen over the space of 4 films live the walk, live the vows, you've made the start.

She'd challenged him- "Wouldn't you rather play with the children than read hate mail?" - "Rocky II"

She'd sided him- At her wits end she sits patiently, for the umpteenth time mere feet from her husband as he goes thru pre fight workout in the dressing room with his manager & his wife minutes before he loses the belt. "Women love ya. Men love ya. You're the best. He shouldn't even be in the same ring with ya......" - "Rocky II"

So, it's Stallone who makes this decision that she should have last-loving-contact with this character. "Creed" finds her there and they have their last moment as husband & wife.

Who? You gd rights...Sylvester Stallone

reply

I think you just described the most important exchanges in this film. Otherwise, people may find to be a fun but unnecessary adventure in the Rocky saga since the original story had been wrapped up. That and near mandatory viewing for Americans during the 4th of July. Wonderful description, could not have said it better myself.

reply

Thank you, A.

I was going to guess Rocky 2, so I was half right.

Point Break
with Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze, and Gary Busey?

reply

*- "Don't give me that shit. You're a bag man for the boys downtown and always have been. I know you."

*Academy Award wnning part.

On the Waterfront

reply

No.

Another key moment (early on) in this film is the character is sitting at the bar early of a morning. The bartender pours him a shot, then ambles away. The character attempts to pick up the shot glass, but, his hand is trembling. He sets it back on the bar, looks about near imperceptibly then leans in and sips directly from the shot glass. The tremor releases he picks up the shot glass and drains it's content. The camera fixes on him for 5, perhaps even 10 seconds before the scene fades to black.

reply

"On our level you don't get fired, you know that. After thirty years of productive work, they can't say to a man like me, "Alright, now get out!" They just can't do that. So what do they do? They create a situation. A situation you can't work in and finally that you can't live in with this tension, abuse. Small humiliations. It all starts out on a scale so subtle, so microscopic that at first you can't really believe it's happening at all. But gradually the thing begins to take shape. The pieces fit together - all the little bits. And it becomes unmistakable. They chip away at your pride, your security until you begin to have doubts, and then fears."

hint: a woman has lots of these if she makes her own clothes.

reply

Something about "Fabrics?"

reply

No. But, subsequently this character collapses just outside the company board room & dies.

reply

Well, in general, yes. You would need (fabrics) to utilize the one-1-one word title of this movie.

Threads??

*a probably bad guess:(

No, it's a Rod Serling B&W creation.
