I played this game on another forum and thought I would introduce it here. This is how it works: the first person posts a line from a movie. The next person identifies the movie, then posts a line from another movie, which the person after them identifies (and so on and so forth). Don't use names that could identify the movie (ex. if Batman is speaking, just identify him as Character A). Don't use identifying place names if they will give away what movie the line comes from (ex. Middle Earth). Don't use identifying proper names of objects if they'll give away the movie (ex. Titanic).
Here's the first movie line. I'm using an easy one.
A: Easy, miss. I've got you. B. You - you've got me? Who's got you?
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad." "How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

Superman: The Movie
Another easy one (although not quite as easy, since it's not Superman related):
A: I have been, and always shall be, your friend.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
"Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad." "How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

Batman: The Dark Knight.
"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
(I realize this is too easy, but what the hey, it's one of my favorite movies.)

Ahh---one of my favorites, too: "The Princess Bride" “I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of the life to start as soon as possible.” (It would be ridiculous to say how many times I have seen this movie --one of those movies I'll never get tired of...)

"Where's Clark?" "Right here."
...two simple sentences--with so much meaning.

When Harry Met Sally... (LMA: I own two copies of it.)
"I'm *not* a committee!"
(Sorry for the easy one; I knew the last two and didn't have any good quotes handy.)

Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back (!!!) A: "What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?" B: "What do you mean? An African or a European swallow?" ( :P This is a fun little game to come back to )

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
OK, time to crank the difficulty level up a notch or ten...

The Court Jester with Danny Kaye. An awesome movie.
"He chose poorly."
"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then...he shoots fire from the skies, and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him." -Batman (in Superman/Batman #3 by Jeph Loeb)

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (though I freely admit to cheating and looking up which Indiana Jones movie it was from).
I just watched this one with my 11 year old son a few days ago...
"Greetings, *****. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada."
You can find my stories as Groobie on the nfic archives and Susan Young on the gfic archives. In other words, you know me as Groobie.

What's Up, Doc?
A: Enough! You are, all of you are beneath me! I am a god, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by...
[B flattens A with repeated smashes into the floor]
B: Puny god.

The Avengers (Hey, everyone else had a chance and I enjoyed watching the line last night.)
"You remind me of the babe." "What babe?" "The one with the power." "What power?" "The power of voodoo." "Who do? "You do." "Do what?" "Remind me of the babe."
