h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Sorry, I've been out for a few days.

It's from a movie. American.

1930...

1930s don't know many from then

It's not some totally obscure 1930s movie but a comedy classic.

Uh, okay this is from the same film:

"Did anyone ever tell you that you have beautiful eyes? Well you have. And so have you! He shot her a glance...as a smile played across his lips...I don't think I've ever seen four more beautiful eyes in all my life. Well, three anyway."

If you look at My Space you'd find a huge clue.


Alright, last clue and then I'm picking something else to keep things moving. Nobody gets a cookie at this point .

*AHEM*

"One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas I don't know."

...I know it's the Marx Brothers, but the only movie I've seen was Duck Soup and that isn't the answer. So other than looking it up, I'm out.

I've seen many Marx Brothers films but can't remember the names! aargh...

*searchs on h2g2*

Animal Crackers...
Monkey Business...
Horse Feathers...
Duck Soup...
A Day at the Races...
Room Service
A Day at the Circus
Go West
The Big Store
A Night in Casablanca
Love Happy

Ah well,
Marx Brothers is close enough I guess.

It was from Animal Crackers.

One of you guys wanna pick one now?

mmmmmmm Friday...

Hey! I'm gonna jump in here...

"I can't take his money, I can't print my own money, I have to WORK for money! Why don't I just lie down and die?"

Who said it?

I'm almost positive that that's from the Simpsons. The one where Homer has the snoring problem and Marge is involved in the indecent proposal parody with Artie. Homer says it, no?

damn. You're right. I congradulate you on your Simpsons-reference-spotting abilities
I must go in search of more obscure quotes....

Thanks. It's the only thing I was ever good at.

Kidding, but my parents and some acquaintances did always complain that I was wasting time filling my brain with nothing but useless quotes. So happy to now have a place for it.

Alright, this is from one of my favorite films:

"If only you could see what I've seen with your eyes."

Er, from now on I'll just post new quotes from the same film until someone gets it.

"Firey the angels fell. Deep thunder roll'd round their shores. Burning with the fires of Orc."

I think I'm really on thin ice here, but the word 'Orc' makes me want to say one of the Lord of the Rings movies.
But I have a very suspicious feeling that I'm wrong.

Sorry, not a LOTR movie.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the darkness of Tenhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost... in time... like tears... in rain."

"It's too bad she won't live. But then again, who does?"

Wow, I can't believe no one's gotten it yet.

"Is this a test to see whether I'm a Replicant, or a lesbian, Mr. Deckard?"

Dammit!!!! I told you!! SONAVABITCH!!!
I knew what it was. Told you that.
So you think Mr. Ford was a replicant, or just a man with weird dreams?

That I think we should discuss on a seperate post as it could take many pages.

Yes,

"He say you Braderunna"

Your turn.
