Damn! I should have known that!

Excuse me miss, I speak Jive.

Got to be!

It's shameful to admit this, but the only quote I recognize is "Do you have the wing?" Yeah, "Robin Hood: Men in Tights."
Yup, a late Mel Brooks film.

Okay, I can be pretty lame in some of my movie choices, but I did like that one...

Mmmm... nope, sorry.

BTW, you were right, it's "Have you the wing?" Not what I just posted.

1. Blazing Saddles
2. City of Lost Children?
3. Airplane
4. A Fish Called Wanda
5.
6.
7.
8.
9. Blues Brothers
10.

That's all you got? >:-D

Okay, but who said it, in #2?

You know...that guy...the guy with the thing...who was also in that other film...what's his name...you know.

The thing?

*being purposely vague*

#5 -- princess bride

Mawwiage is what bwings us togehah.

#8's nagging me--but the rest are total blanks.

#7: The Cheap Detective?

Nope. It's not actually a police movie.

It's funny, because I love that line - "better left unsolved" - but I must be the only one. That movie is highly quotable (if you're into rock music).

#7: "This is Spinal Tap?" (the clues in your subsequent post really help)

Yes.

Yes! Unfortunately, Dwivian beat you to it, but you have proven your knowledge nonetheless.

#6: "Eating Raoul"

That's a lot of Trek actors to search for in the memory banks, huh?

No!! I didn't do it that way. I saw the film 20 years ago and remembered the quote (yeah, right).

Actually, I looked at your clues, googled "frying pan" quotes, and came up with a long list of films. So I narrowed it to ones in the early eighties. And found it. From there, I looked at the cast members, and Robert Beltran jumped out of the page at me.

Fortunately some of my quotes were chosen to foil you Google-cheaters.

Hey! Nothing in rules says "no googling." If you don't want googling, you should say so. Then I wouldn't. So I wasn't cheating. *pout*

;-)

#10: "Night of the Comet" (How could I forget Robert Beltran, Chakotay on "Voyager?")

When that show first came on, they always talked about the little known cult film that Beltran played in. I was, like, "yeah, I loved Night of the Comet, and then they'd say Eating Raoul. But I enjoyed both of them.

And don't try to tell me that Night of the Comet is really dumb, because I already know that. ;-)

I know #8, but I googled it. Should I whisper it to you?

I'll take your word for it.

Strange, though. That's the one quote that I thought I didn't find on the quote lists.

Just the last sentence by itself.

But it's not funny without the previous sentence.
