I have been told that I am too much of a trivia and movie junkie, so I tried to make these fairly easy. If you can, name the movie and the character.
1. “Two days ago I saw a rig that could haul that tanker. You want to get out of here, you talk to me.†Mad Max in “The Road Warrior
2. “I am in a room full of people that want this man dead. I wonder why that is!!†Chris Sabian in “The Negotiator”
3. “Well, I’ll tell you where we got our moves; we stole ‘em. †Little Mo in “Tap”
4. “I’m going to take a job in a grocery store. Fellow says I’ll make a crackerjack clerk. Crackerjack.†Vin in “The Magnificent Seven”
5. “The latest sports news off the street, boppers, the Baseball Furies dropped the ball; made an error. Our friends are on second base and trying to make it all the way home.†DJ in “The Warriors”
6. “Ted Nugent called, he wants his shirt back.†Daniel Ocean in “Ocean’s Eleven”
7. “…this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and it could blow your head clean off…†Harry Callahan in “Dirty Harry”
8. “Shiny! Let’s be bad guys.†Jayne Cobb in “Serenity”
9. “Not many men know what their life’s worth. I do; seventy grand. That’s what they took from me and that’s what I was going to get back.†Porter in “Payback”
10. “America isn’t easy. America is advanced citizenship. You’ve got to want it bad, because it’s going to put up a fight.†President Andrew Shepherd in “The American President”
Take your best shots, people!

1. Mad Max
5. The Warriors?
6. Oceans Eleven
7. Dirty Harry
8. Serenity: Jane says this while unzipping his jacket on the mule just before the crew robs the outpost payroll. (I bet I can name the scene and the person who said it of any line in this entire movie)
10. Independence Day?
Is #2 The Fight Club?
The rest escape me.
Good job, Phoenix! 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are correct! 2 isn’t Fight Club and 10 isn’t Independence Day. Good guesses. I was thinking that I had made it too difficult (as usual). I am glad that somebody tried.
Uh-oh…I knowd three:
#4: Vin (Steve McQueen), the Magnificent Seven
#5: Beats me from The Warriors (no pun intended, I think)
#9: Mel Gibson’s character from Payback
Skunk, you ROCK! I am glad that I’m not the only person that loves those movies! It’s the DJ from The Warriors.
At least I know that they aren’t too obscure.
Sorry, my movie viewing lately has been all Disney, Hard Hat Harry, or Ben 10. Sigh, I really need to rent some adult (no not that kind) movies.
Ummmm… Isn’t #1 actually The Road Warrior ? yes… It is a Mad Max movie… But…
Some days i wish I could drive through traffic like that…. Just floor it and don’t stop for anything….
Guppy, I wish that I could, too, however, I have too strong of a self-preservation instinct…
