Quote Quiz 2007
Hi all!
It's been a long while, but it's time
for another quote quiz! Below is dialogue from 50 movies (all released
theatrically in the US). How many can you identify?
As you'll see, character names have
often been removed from dialogue.
Now, it's possible that many of these
can be solved with online search capabilities. That takes the challenge
out of it, don't you think?
Feel free to pass this along, and to
send me your answers either alone, or in groups! (There's no prize,
though, it's just for fun.)

the body says, "Hey. I'll take it from here, 'cuz you obviously
don't know what you're doing ... Lie down now.
Rest,
and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's
called the knockout mechanism.
