Yes, it do...Merry Christmas Lizzie.."
Thank you. I hope you enjoy the holiday.
I suspect for many of us, it's not easy. Eight months ago we didn't expect to still be sitting at home for the holiday season.
Since 2020 has passed, how about a quote from a movie about Doomsday?"I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids."
I've enjoyed the posted quotes on this thread. We did the easy ones first, like "You're going to need a bigger boat." After that, there have been some really interesting quotes, many from movies I haven't seen, but based on the quotes, I'll be watching for them. Thanks everyone who participated last year.

I don't recognize the quote. It sounds like something that McCarthy or Hoover might have said.
Raymond wrote: "I don't recognize the quote. It sounds like something that McCarthy or Hoover might have said."It isn't from a biopic.

Wow, i though that one would sneak through.

Christmas with the Kranks
"Who gave you permission to tell Charlie there was no Santa Claus? I think if we're going to destroy our son's delusions, I should be a part of it."'
The Santa Clause
“I planned out our whole day: First, we’ll make snow angels for two hours, and then we’ll go ice skating, and then we’ll eat a whole roll of Toll-House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then we’ll snuggle.”

Thanks Lizzie. I guess I've missed a few Christmas movies. I did watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation again this year for about the 20th time. Still some laughs in there.

I first saw it in a theatre. Watched it again recently on tv.
Not verbatim, but as a big reader I always thought it was a funny line "I've read almost all of them almost all the way through."

The Great Gatsby?
I know the communist infiltration line is from "Dr Strangelove."No, my line isn't from Gatsby, it's from a little movie - hint: a movie about moviemaking.
Barbara wrote: "I know the communist infiltration line is from "Dr Strangelove."You are correct ma'am!
One of the greatest comedies of all time.

"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon."
"I wish you wouldn't drink while you do this.""I wish Stevie Nicks would show up in her birthday suit with a bottle of pickles and a jar of baby oil."

Was a movie made from the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test?

Now that one sounds like it might come from Armageddon, the Steve Buscemi character.
Raymond wrote: "J. wrote: ""We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, dow..."No, but it was from a movie based on a classic of modern American literature.
Anyone want a hint?

I guess we need one.

It is Hunter S. Thompson. And Hunter knew his narcotics.Hunter S. Thompson's Daily Routine

I'm sure y'all can get the title.

No. It's a much newer movie and a completely different actor. Not the main character. I will check back tomorrow and see if you want any hints.

Hi Lizzie. I think I need a hint and if it's relatively recent movie, I may have to wait until it shows up on Netflix.ca.

James Forrester said the line in a science fiction movie. For me, it was the best part of the wole movie, which I had looked forward to seeing but then wasn't as good as the hype. I watched it on Prime last summer.

Sounds like a movie I would enjoy. Not on a streaming platform I subscribe to, but I will be watching for it.

It was on Amazon Prime when I saw it last summer. I just checked and it's still showing as free on Prime. Didn't see it come up anywhere else. It's a Tom Cruise movie; somewhat predictible, but an ok sci fi flick.

“Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?”
That one has so many good lines."
Yes, it does. My kids and I watched that movie every year for many Christmas seasons. I just recorded it to watch again. Merry Christmas Lizzie.
