movie fever (NOW WITH ANSWERS)

2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it's guessed.

1. If the good Lord had intended us to walk he wouldn't have invented roller-skates. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

2. You gonna order something, kid?
Ah, yeah... Give me a Tab.
Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order something.

3. Don't you see the rest of the country looks upon New York like we're left-wing, communist, Jewish, homosexual pornographers? I think of us that way sometimes and I live here. Annie Hall

5. In the court ruling US vs. Fishbine, a man subjected to potential incineration while wearing another man's suit is entitled to $10,000 worth of airline tickets. It's an obscure ruling, but a very important one to me. Fletch

6. And when I was in the delivery room, waking up from the ether, I asked the nurse whether it was a boy or a girl. She said it was a girl - and I turned my head to the side and cried.

11. We have a whole life to live together you fucker, but it can't start until you call. me and you and everyone we know

12. When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman,and a ride home. The Outsiders

13. Living here day by day, you think it's the center of the world. You believe nothing will ever change. Then you leave: a year, two years. When you come back, everything's changed. The thread's broken. What you came to find isn't there. What was yours is gone. You have to go away for a long time... many years... before you can come back and find your people. The land where you were born. But now, no. It's not possible. Right now you're blinder than I am. Cinema Paradiso

14. It's a beautiful Saturday morning, John... What the hell else have we gotta do? The Thomas Crown Affair

15. Well, I see you're smoking pot now. I think using psychotropic drugs is a very positive example to set for our daughter. American Beauty
