Once the first quote is guessed the 'guesser' adds his or her own movie quote and so on. Why? I don't know :tongue:

I'll start with an easy one.

OK I checked the Memorable Quotes on the IMDb entry for Better Off Dead (see above hyperlink) and see that I was right.

So, next up:

Dreadful technique! You've confused rays with beams! D! Minus! I'd give you an F, but that would only mean having to see you in summer school.

My turn: "Are you mating?"

If you need a hint, it was spoken by someone outside the dome.

Correct. I've always felt Anthony Michael Hall deserved an Oscar for his role as Farmer Ted. And John Hughes could do no wrong in the 80s.

Griffworks

Agreed. One of my favorites and a definitely classic. My kids even like it! Lots of funny lil' jokes that you might not get the first viewing, so it almost screams for a second - or even tenth! - viewing.

John Hughes had a definite penchant for adding in subtle comedy.

And Anthony Michael Hall is definitely an under-appreciated actor, IMNSHO.

Actually, my quote has a common actor with two of the movies mentioned so far. :cool:

16 Candles is one of my faves too, watched it with the wife for her first time recently, she insist it is the unltimate 'chick-flick". Not to mention it was the last movie that could repeatedly announce the appearence of a Japanese character with a gong without getting a bunch of folks panties in a wad.

I guess I'm alone here but is this "quote" not such a general phrase that usage in later movies or everyday speech shouldn't be necessarily be construed as a "movie quote"?
Geez, what's next?
Guess which movie had the quote "I love you"??
If I'm wrong, I'll apologize (probably not...re:apology not re:being wrong or right)

PS "Nick Carter, Master Detective" ?

Very good, it is from the Walter Pidgeon Nick Carter movies.

I,m sorry but I don't understand the point you are trying to make. I am not aware of the phrase being used in other movies, so I don't see how it could be considered too common to be a movie quote, especially the way it was used. It could probably be considered more of a catch phrase I guess. I'm the only person I know who uses that phrase.

Your avatar pretty much gave this away. I checked IMDb to verify it.
