A while ago DH saw my list of 10 quotes from guilty pleasure movies and put together a list of his own favorites. So without further ado, here's a mess o' faux fur to provide the obligatory knitting content, the original rules of the meme, and DH. Consider yourself flashed and tagged, if you wish.The rules:
1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them on your blog for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. Looking them up is cheating, please don’t.
Hello, here are some of my favorite movie quotes as taken from IMDB. I am pleased to offer you these for your entertainment, and to hopefully inspire you to see or see once again the films represented. All of the films are well worth seeing, and each is a good or great film from its genre. If you can’t identify the film by the quotation outright, a clue will be provided.
