These are truly random quotes, in that I jumped into the middle of the movies in question and took the first reasonably distinctive line I heard: 1. “Watch Lewis, maybe we can learn something. Backwater now” 2. “Why are you always giving me your resumé?” 3. “My date involved two incidents of extreme violence, one incident of her hand on my cock and me finger up her thing, which lasted all too briefly…” 4. “Bianca’s in town for a reason” 5. “Even bad men love their mommas” ---

[quote=“Elendil’s Heir (re “Too early for flapjacks?”), post:62, topic:490630”] Hmmm. Maybe you’re right. Which movie, though? [/QUOTE] I’ll answer with another quote from the same movie and see if someone else can guess: “Watch that last step, it’s a dooooozy!” ---

This one steps it up a notch: “He’s been there for five thousand years, and he has only had time to make 3 cave drawings?” The correct answer has two parts. If you know the quote, please supply the two parts. ---

1. “The Queen is innocent!” _Excalibur_ “He’s been there for five thousand years, and he has only had time to make 3 cave drawings?” I _swear_ I just saw this the other day but for the life of me I have no clue. …man, I’m bad at this. Or maybe just slow. ---

Previous clue: MW1. “To keep you happy and doing the laundry. Money instead of sheets.” Another clue for MW1: The you referred to in this quote was a librarian. ---
