[QUOTE=Dooku] W10: “ATTABOY, LUTHER!!!” Should I go with **The Ghost and Mr. Chicken** , or are you being extra clever and looking for **Kingpin**? 🙂 [/QUOTE] Not that clever, apparently–Mr. Chicken is correct. ---

[QUOTE=Eutychus] KZ07: “You know, 35 years ago, preparing for a concert meant playing Find-the-Cobra with the hotel chambermaid.” A Mighty Wind [/QUOTE] Yesserie! Still unanswered: KZ02: “Well with \*that \*philosophy you must’ve had a provocative career!” (Second hint: previous line is “Because you’re a lad, and I’m a lass.”) KZ04: “So you have two udders, then, Barker? I always suspected as much.” (Second hint: during a conversation shouted over a very early telephone) KZ05: “Assaulted by both one’s parents in the same evening. What is family life coming to?” (Second hint: it’s not from _The Lion in Winter_. Right kingdom, wrong dynasty. Move forward several centuries.) KZ06: “I know what you’re thinking. And you oughtta be ashamed of yourself.” (First hint: we’re not in River City any more) KZ08: “Generosity. That was my first mistake. I leave these people a little bit extra, and then they hire these men to make trouble. It shows you, sooner or later…you must answer for every good deed.” (First hint: starring a Russian (sorta) as a Cajun and a German as a Mexican) ---

[QUOTE=Only Mostly Dead] The game really is quite simple. I give you five one-liner quotes from five movies I enjoy. You give me the movies (bonus for continuing comic exchanges). The first five movies to pop into my head are quite easy, and all except one are comedies. OMD1. No we shouldn’t say fuck, fuck no! OMD2. Who’s scruffy looking? OMD3. He would have an enormous schwanzstucker. OMD4. Say No More (Mon Amour) OMD5. Then how do you measure yourself with other golfers? [/QUOTE] Without scrolling down, the only one of these I can identify is #3, “Young Frankenstein.” ---

OK, there’s a movie quote that’s been driving me crazy, and this looks like the crowd to help me out. It’s in a Western, possibly one of the later Clint Eastwood films. The scene is muddy main street, a hearse with the body in it getting ready to head for Boot Hill, the cynical old undertaker up top, and by his side his apprentice. There’s been so much killing in town, the kid is concerned about the undertaker going out of business because the population has dwindled (I think that’s the situation.) Anyway, the cynical undertaker snorts derisively and says, “Naw, as long as fuckin’ is more fun than dyin’, we’ll always have customers” or something of that nature. Sound familiar? ---

SZ1: Stupidity…has a habit of getting its way. SZ2: Come down and eat chicken with me, beautiful. It’s so dark. SZ3: Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate; our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. SZ4: I found you in hell. Don’t you think I could find you in Jersey? SZ5: In memory of the countless victims among your people, I ask us to observe three minutes of silence. ---

Since I’ve answered at least 5 of these… F1) “No one ever leaves a star. That’s what makes one a star.” F2) “Dignity…Always dignity.” F3) “Kiss me. The liar’s kiss that says I love you and means something else.” F4) “I never dreamed that any mere physical experience could be so stimulating.” F5) “What are you gonna do? Charge me with smoking?” ---
