Correction: Russ pointed out that the Goodfellas‘ quote was incomplete in that it lacked the requisite curse word. I was relying on a script I found online that I believed was a transcript from the film, and not a pre-production version. I guess I was wrong.

Russ still got the correct answer, but it’s possible that with the proper profanity in place the quote may have rang familiar to some of you who missed it. For that, I am sorry.

I’ve been letting this stew a little too long, so on to the results.

Nick “Unpainted Huffhines” Rogers is this round’s winner with an impressive score of eight. Since Nick is a professional movie reviewer, I considered giving the rest of the field a two-point handicap, in which case Paco and Russ would have won with their 7+2 scores. But we believe in meritocracy here at BFS so let every player stand on his or her own merit. Congratulations Nick.

The rest of the field finished as follows:

Doug – 6

Laura – 4

Brian – 4

Gish – 3

AC – 2

MB – 2

Occula – 1

As for the answers . . .

“You mocked me once, never do it again — I died that day!”

The Princess Bride (Spoken by Robin Wright as Princess Buttercup. I fell in love that day.)

“Now go home and get your shine box.”

Goodfellas (Russ thought there was a missing profanity in the quote, but I double-checked the script and apparently this was the only line in the film not punctuated by the  f-word.)

“Dionne and I were both named after great singers of the past who now do infomercials.”

Clueless (Cher was the other singer-turned-infomercial star. For its genre, a very good movie.)

“Mind ya don’t cut yourself, Mordecai.”

Raising Arizona (I considered naming one of our sons Mordecai just so I could repeat this line.)

“A cute button nose? Thick, wavy locks? Taut, round buttocks?”

Shrek 2 (I’m surprised that those of you who didn’t know this didn’t come up with some joke answers. It’s ripe for ribaldry.)

“I wrote sixty-three songs this year. They’re all about Joe, and I’m going to play every single one of them tonight.”

Say Anything (“That’ll never be me. That’ll never be me. That’ll never be, never be . . .Don’t you even think it!”)

“Let me have a Diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper. Make it fast. I’m in a goddamn hurry.”

Smokey and the Bandit (Surprisingly, to me anyway, the toughest question on the board. MB was the only one who knew it. Looking back, it wasn’t a great movie, but Jackie Gleason was great in it.)

“Took me, like, three hours to finish the shading on your upper lip. It’s probably the best drawing I’ve ever done.”

Napoleon Dynamite (This was the easiest question. I love the unintended suggestion that Tricia was sporting a ‘stache.)

“Where did you get that dress? It’s awful . . . and those shoes, and that coat, geeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzz.”

Airplane (Another surprisingly tough one. I had this Johnny-ism down as a gimme.)

“On the run from Johnny Law… ain’t no trip to Cleveland.”

Bottle Rocket (This is another good all-purpose line. Trot it out next time there’s a lull in the conversation.)

Bonus Question:

“Fratin’ house stickel fifer” is one of the many nonsensical profanities uttered by the Old Man in A Christmas Story. I was going to  use “mundane noodle,” but thought it too easy.
