Catchphrases

The Game Room
1

Name the thing that the catchphrase is associated most closely with. Then provide more for others to guess. Try not to be too obvious (“I’ll be back”, “wide stance”) or too riculously obscure – better to provide more than one to keep things moving. You should wait for confirmation unless you are absolutely certain of what is intended.

Three to start:

I’ll show you the life of the mind!

Is it safe? (two possible answers come to mind)

The long blue tunnel to the afterlife (6 people have read this book)

(commentary is optional)

2

“Is it safe?” is from Marathon Man

My contribution: “You had me at hello.”

3

I’ll show you the life of the mind! is from Barton Fink.
My contribution: Laugh while you can, monkey boy!
(We use this quite often at Chateaus Pepperwinkle.)

4

I would file that under easy since the American Film Institute has put that in it’s 100 best movie lines of all time. It’s from Jerry Maguire.

Here’s two:

“Trust me! I know what I’m doing.”

“It works for me!”
