Here are the rules for the game.

1. Post a great movie line that you remember.

2. Just the movie line. Don't identify the movie.

3. Let someone else in a subsequent post try to identify the movie.

4. Try not to use Google. This is a memory game.

"What we've got here is failure to communicate."

"You're gonna need a bigger boat."

"I'll have what she's having."

‘Jaws’ - for the boat, verified by google

"You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall."

"You just keep thinking, Butch. That's what you're good at."

Nik wrote: "‘Jaws’ - for the boat, verified by google"

There's no like button here on Goodreads to indicate a correct answer. You got it, Nik. That line was from the movie "Jaws"

"Here's Johnny!"

"Go ahead, make my day."

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning."

'And I will take your body and bury it in the woods...'

If this is a game, how do you win?

Leonie wrote: "'And I will take your body and bury it in the woods...'"

Leonie, that's a tough one. I will be interested if someone matches the movie to that quote.

Scout wrote: "If this is a game, how do you win?"

Scout, if that's a quote then I don't know the movie.

If it's a question, I thought the first comment explained the game. You win by connecting the movie quote to a movie.
Or you win by giving the rest of us a movie quote that stirs old memories.

I love well-written, memorable dialogue in a movie, the kind of dialogue that ten or twenty years later you hear the line and you immediately remember the movie.

This one is from "The Shining"! I own King movies so that always helps! :)

Raymond wrote: ""Go ahead, make my day.""


This one is from "Sudden Impact"! Another great one liner phrase - one of Clint Eastwood's best! :)

I like this game and I haven't see this before on the GR threads so this cool! :) Thanks Raymond for an interesting game! So I have one.



"Welcome to the party, pal!"

Raymond wrote: ""What we've got here is failure to communicate.""

This one is "Cool Hand Luke"! I have seen this movie a few times! :)

Raymond wrote: ""You just keep thinking, Butch. That's what you're good at.""

This one is : Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid


The "Butch" gave it away Raymond! LOL :)

"I'll be back."

"You're in the Navy, remember? It's not a job, it's an adventure."

"Wax on, wax off."

I read somewhere that Jack Nicholson ad-libbed that line.

"Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravitational pull?"

I like Clint as an actor and a director. You're good at this.

Paul Newman was one of my favourite actors and this was one of my favourite movies. I may remember some other Newman quotes from other movies to post later.

Loved this movie. There were other very quotable lines in it.

Marie wrote: ""I'll be back.""

Thanks for tossing me an easy one, Marie. Arnold in "The Terminator".

Leonie wrote: "'And I will take your body and bury it in the woods...'"

There is a movie that is close to that quote but I do not think that is it. I was thinking of the movie "Red". If that is not it (which it probably is not - lol) then that is a tough one. :)

"I see dead people."

Thank you Raymond! I love movies! Own a couple of hundred of them! :)

Paul Newman was in lots of great movies! Yes - you shouldn't have no problems digging up some great quotes! :)

Leonie wrote: "'And I will take your body and bury it in the woods...'"

My guess would be a movie like "Goodfellas", but I don't think that was it.

"I thought you'd be bigger." "Ya, I get that a lot."

"Hello, boys! I'm back!"

Re-post. The original was Comment 1.

"Hello, 'ello, 'ello, ladies and gentlemen. We are the ex-Presidents."

Marie is correct! Red.

Helen Mirren’s character says this.

Leonie, That was a good one. Give us some more.

"Those aren't pillows!"

I have watched that movie so often, it should have come to me quicker. The give-away was "pal".

Die Hard. Yippie-ki-yay.

Frankly,my dear,I don't give a damn.

W wrote: "Frankly,my dear,I don't give a damn."

That may be the most famous quote of all, especially for people around my age.

Gone with the Wind.

You win.It's the only line I remember.

"I could've been somebody,"

"Somewhere, some lucky guy's having a heart attack."

Time for a hint? I can think of a few clues that would help.

Marie wrote: ""You're in the Navy, remember? It's not a job, it's an adventure.""

Marie, I think we're going to need a hint.
