Sorry, but I guess I screwed up. I was thinking “one word with which you should be able to determine the movie.” This culled list contains actual one-word quotes.

1. Shark!
2. Poppies - yes, The Wizard of Oz
3. Abnormal
4. Mommmyyyyyy
5. Piker - yes, Snatch
6. $1,000,000 - yes, Austin Powers
7. Shinola
