Monday's Thirteen: Episode Ten

[ellyssian]

Welcome to Monday's Thirteen, the movie quote guessing game.

Answers will be screened. Those who guess correctly will have their name listed with the quote as soon as I can. More than one person can claim a quote, so the movie's name won't be revealled until the weekend game-end.

On Wednesday, some additional hints will be posted for leftover Double Quotes (two-week veterans of the game). Any surviving Triple Quotes will get their hint from the prior week sorted out and matched up. Fridays will see any unguessed Triple Quotes matched with another quote.

Anything that makes it to four weeks is probably too difficult for you all to guess is a real challenge. It will be elevated to Sudden Death status - the first correct guess gets the credit for it, and, unlike earlier stages of the game, subsequent guesses just don't count for squat. Instead of waiting for the weekend, I'll expose the winners *and the movies* for Sudden Death quotes as soon as I can. Sudden Death quotes will also get the benefit of an extra quote Tuesday through Friday in an attempt to get rid of them and make room for something easier that you folks can handle new.

Enjoy!

13. "I will tell you a joke! Why did the robot cross the road? Because he was carbon bonded to the chicken~~ "Lost in Space"

Hmm. I'm not certain but I think that #8 is from Home Alone. I should really know number 13 but I just can't place it right now :S

No. 7 is from Chicken Run.
I'll have to spend more time figuring out the others.

1. "We can't leave yet, Captain. We haven't put enough food on board."
"We need less mouths."

"Stop your chatter and say something Latin-ish."

Sounds really familiar. I'm not really convinced, but I'm going to guess "Serenity".






Yup, I knew it was wrong.

You were right! It was wrong!

I *still* have not watched Serenity, although it is on my wish list! =)

[nightwind292.livejournal.com]

honestly feels like pirates of the caribian, maybe #3 but...

and I thought i knew 6, but I woln't search for the exact name, being that feels unfair...

[ellyssian.livejournal.com]

Nope, the Pie Rats of the Carob Bean don't appear anywhere on this week's game.

If you want to give me as much info as you can about #6, I'll see if it's enough to count.

For instance, if one of these *was* Pie Rats #1: Curse of the Black Pearl; I might accept "that first pirate film with Johnny Depp and Kiera Knightly, you know the one based on the theme park at Disney..." as that contains enough info to pretty much provide a positive ID.

I'd probably tease and chide for not getting it exact, but I'd likely give you credit for it anyway. I'm pretty lenient as far as that sort of thing goes.

5. Hamlet

7. Chicken Run

I only know the one, although if 5 was lark instead of cock I'd say someone filmed Romeo and Juliet (which of course someone has), but they discuss whether they heard larks (meaning it's almost day and Romeo has to leave) or nightengales (meaning he can stay longer), not cocks. It's so close though...
