A movie quiz from Dave Hyatt<\/a>. I didn’t want to open up his comments to make my stab at the answers, since I’d probably see other people’s answers, so I’m doing it via Trackback. I’ll start with the quiz, and put my answers in the rest of this post. You can use the comments if you want to play along, too!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. “What we have here is a failure to communicate.”<\/li>\n
  2. “I came here to do two things: chew some bubble gum and kick some ass. And I’m all outta bubble gum!”<\/li>\n
  3. “…also left a man’s decapitated body lying on the floor next to his own severed head. A head, which at this time, has no name.” “I know his name!”<\/li>\n
  4. “Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.”<\/li>\n
  5. “Anyway, David, when they find out who we are they’ll let us out.” “When they find out who you are they’ll pad the cell.”<\/li>\n
  6. “Do you think there really are people who can just go up and say, ‘Hi, babe. Name’s Charles. This is your lucky night’?” “Well, if there are, they’re not English.”<\/li>\n
  7. “A hundred million terrorists in the world and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister.”<\/li>\n
  8. “The first boy I ever kissed ended up in a coma for three weeks. I can still feel him inside my head. It’s the same with you.”<\/li>\n
  9. “Just so we’re clear, you stole a car, shot a bouncer, and had sex with two women?”<\/li>\n
  10. “Yeah, man just kinda…you know, you got these claws and you’re staring at these claws and you’re thinking to yourself, and with these claws you’re thinking, ‘How am I supposed to kill this bunny, how am I supposed to kill this bunny?'”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    <\/p>\n

    My answers (those I can get, at least):<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The warden in Cool Hand Luke<\/a>, talking about Luke.<\/li>\n
    2. I’m pretty sure this is Kurt Russell talking. I’m pretty<\/em> sure — though not positive — that it’s from Big Trouble in Little China<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    3. From Highlander<\/a>, the Kurgen responding to a news report of a battle between Immortals earlier in the night.<\/li>\n
    4. Not positive, but fairly sure that this Morpheus talking in The Matrix<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    5. No clue.<\/li>\n
    6. No clue again, but I keep thinking of Hugh Grant.<\/li>\n
    7. Bruce Willis in Die Hard<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    8. Anna Paqin as Rogue in X-Men<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    9. I don’t know the character or actor, but the line is from Go<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    10. No clue.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Looks like I got six out of ten — missed three, and one of my guesses was wrong. These look to be the answers, according to the comments left so far:<\/p>\n
