A. Pick 16 of your favorite movies.
B. Then pick one of your favorite quotes from each movie.
C. Post the quotes in your journal.
D. Have those on your friends list try to guess what the movie is.
E. Strike out the quote once it has been correctly identified and place the guesser’s username directly after the quote.

Update: OK, it's been a good 24 hours. I'm closing the polls on this one. I've filled in the answers for the few that nobody guessed. I hope seeing this list of my favorite quotes from my favorite movies has taught you...stuff...about...me.

Not necessarily a Carpenter fan...but BTiLC has got to be one of the most easily quotable movies ever. And "They Live" is just great fun. The shining star of Roddy Piper's career.

I once used the "watermelon" line in my own quote quiz. Nobody got it.

Best fight scene ever.

The watermelon bit is one of my favorite parts of the movie.
