| April 10, 2008 Ken Men's 55 462 posts | In the movie "Wee Willie Winkie", who played the main bad guy who befriended her? |
| April 10, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | Question: Do you guys have any rule about knowing the trivia answer vs. looking it up? (I haven't seen Wee Willie Winkie, but found the answer in one of my Movie Guides.) |
| April 10, 2008 Ken Men's 55 462 posts | You're not supposed to google anything. If you have books on movies, I guess that would be OK. With this kind of question, you either know it or you don't. If it looks like people are stumped, the guy who posed the question usually gives hints. I think I'm gonna have to do that with this one, but I'll wait a little longer to see if somebody gets it. |
| April 10, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Ken is right. No Googling. I would consider looking it up in a book the same as Googling. Hints are appropriate. The Commish |
| April 11, 2008 Ken Men's 55 462 posts | This guy was quite a joker. He played Duke Santos in a Rat Pack movie. |
| April 11, 2008 the wood Men's 65 1123 posts | Joey Bishop? |

| April 11, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Caesar Romero? |
| April 12, 2008 Ken Men's 55 462 posts | You got it. you're up. |
| April 12, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Can you name the movie this dialogue comes from? Officer Olson: "Well, what'd this guy look like anyways?" Mr. Mohra: "Oh, he's a little guy, kind of funny looking." Officer Olson: "Ah ha. In what way?" Mr. Mohra: "Oh, just in a general kind of way." |
| April 13, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | Fargo, one of the best! |
| April 13, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | You are exactly right! |
| April 13, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | Ten quotes from the list of the Top 100 Movie Quotes are in sports related movies. What are they? Hints: 4 are related to baseball (1942, 1945, 1989, 1992) 2 are related to football (1940, 1996) 2 are related to boxing (1954, 1976) 1 is related to golf (1980) 1 is related to winter "sports" (sledding) (1941) PS The answers to these trivia questions can be found at American Film Institue. |
| April 14, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | I remember watching this list on TV awhile back Here are some that I belive are in that Top 100 From jerry mcguire - Show me the Money & You had me at Hello from rocky - Yo adrian! from a league of their own -There's no Crying in Baseball! Not sure of the rest w/o looking them up |
| April 14, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | just thought of another one field of dreams- if you build it, he will come! |
| April 14, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | however my most favorite one is Go Ahead Make My Day! |
| April 14, 2008 J3 208 posts | How about I'm the luckiest man on the face of the earth Lou Gehrig Story Win one for the Gipper Knute Rockne |
| April 14, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | You guys are great! The Knute Rockne = "Win One for the Gipper" from Knute Rockne All American (Correct) Lou Gerig = "Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth" from The Pride of the Yankeer. (Correct) Field of Dreams, League of their Own, Jerry McGuire, Rocky (Correct) Four remaining: Baseball Hint - Not a baseball movie, but perhaps the most quoted of all. Getting the name of the film should be awarded Trivia World Champ for Life. Boxing Hint - Not a boxing film, but #3 on the list of top 100 quotes and about #8 all time Top 100 Films. Golf Hint - A comedy Winter "sports" (sledding) Hint - Not a sports film, but #17 on the list of top 100 quotes and about #1 all time Top 100 Films.(1941) |
| April 14, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | Dbax, Sorry for such a long question. How should a winner be chosen? Feel free to declare the "winner." |
| April 14, 2008 J3 208 posts | Don't know the quote, but its Caddyshack for the golf movie. |
| April 14, 2008 J3 208 posts | I could have been a contender |
| April 14, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Caddyshack............ It'a a cinderella story? I don't know how to declare a winner. Great questions. Maybe I'll just let you post again. |
| April 14, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | 2 more down, 2 more to go. Caddy Shack is correct: "Cinderella Story. Outta nowhere. A former groundskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac....It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!" On the Waterfront: "You don't understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could've been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am." Baseball another hint - The quote is very long, many words. Winter "sports" (sledding) another hint - The quote is very short, one word. |
| April 14, 2008 the wood Men's 65 1123 posts | Don't think, Meat, you can only hurt the team... Bull Durham |
| April 14, 2008 J3 208 posts | Sledding movie-Citzen Kane-Rosebud? |
| April 14, 2008 J3 208 posts | This has me thinking. Hockey -Love Story (Ryan O'Neil was a college hockey player) Love is never having to say your sorry. Not a great movie and maybe in at least one maybe more of their movies Abbott & Costello, Who's on First. Forest Gump- life is a box of chocolates-Running Movie and had football and ping pong I feel the need for speed-Volleyball-Top Gunn Some of these are probably not on the list, but you got my mined going. Forest Gump and Love story got to be on the list |
| April 14, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | J3, the movie-dude, Bill Durham - great quote, but didn't make the Top 100 list. Rosebud is correct! As far as I can tell, the first movie with Abbott and Costello's routine (Who's on First?.... ) was "The Naughty Nineties" I tried to get either sports movies (A League of their own) or a quote about sports (On the waterfront). So that's why I didn't put Love Story, Forrest Gump, and Top Gun on my sports list (they are all on the Top 100 list). |
| April 14, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | There are at least 2 quotes from the Top 100 Quotes that were ad-libs. Name them. Hints: Both were spoken and created by men who are considered two of the very best actors. Both quotes were repeated when spoken in the films. The films came out in 1976 and 1969 |
| April 16, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | i'll take a stab at this one could one of them be You Talking To Me? Robert DeNiro? That one would have been approx 1976? I have no clue on the 1969 quote? |
| April 16, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | You got Taxi Driver. Hint for other film: It was the first and only X-rated film to receive the Best Picture Oscar from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. |
| April 16, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | OOOOOPS. I just read that the quote I posted is not an ad-lib. The producer said it was a myth that "I'm walking here! I'm walking here!" was an ad-lib. Sorry guys. Someone else is up. |
| April 16, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | I appeared in the movie HOOSIERS & in the movie THE NATURAL Who Am I? |
| April 16, 2008 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Midnight Cowboy was the X-rated picture. |
| April 16, 2008 Sisavic 190 posts | Could it have been Brimley? |
| April 16, 2008 2awesom Men's 50 308 posts | nope not brimley... |
| April 16, 2008 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Gene Hackman's love interest Barbara Hershey was also in The Natural. |
