One more clue, then it's free post time. The first and last lines are spoken by the main character after whom the film is named.

--- All of you people, blocking the intersection, you're all idiots.

Rail Crossing Crowd #1: You're the one that threw the dude's car at her. And what's with the train?

Rail Crossing Crowd #2: Why didn't you just go straight up in the air with the car? You've obviously injured that poor woman.

Rail Crossing Crowd #3: She's right. She should sue you.

--- Okay. Well, you should sue McDonald's, 'cause they f'..d you up.

I might need more lines to acquaint someone with this movie.

I think restaurants have become too important!

I agree. Restaurants are to people in the Eighties what theater

was to people in the sixties. I read that in a magazine.

I wrote that!

Get out of here. I've never quoted anything from a magazine in my life

That's amazing. Don't you think thats amazing? And you wrote it.

I also wrote "Pesto is the quiche of the Eighties"!

Get over yourself.

I did.

Where did I read that?

New York magazine!

By the lack of response that means you need more lines.

Right now everything is great, everyone is happy, everyone is in love and that is wonderful. But you gotta know that sooner or later you're gonna be screaming at each other about who's gonna get this dish. This eight dollar dish will cost you a thousand dollars in phone calls to the legal firm of That's Mine, This Is Yours.

Do me a favor, for your own good, put your name in your books right now before they get mixed up and you won't know whose is whose. 'Cause someday, believe it or not, you'll go 15 rounds over who's gonna get this coffee table. This stupid, wagon wheel, Roy Rogers, garage sale COFFEE TABLE.

Most women at one time or another have faked an orgasm.

Well, they haven't faked it with me.

How do you know?

Because I know.

Oh. Right. Thats right. I forgot. You're a man.

What was that supposed to mean?

Nothing. Its just that all men are sure it never happened to them and all women at one time or other have done it so you do the math.

WordWolf I saw that you guessed it right when I was posting this. Your Go.

"Life's like a movie, write your own ending..."

"..keep pretending, keep believing, and that's just what we've set out to do...."

"...with the lovers...the dreamers...and you!"

"Hey you. You with the banjo. Can you help me? I have lost my sense of direction."

"Have you tried Hare Krishna?"

"We am, is, are, and be, they whom as are known as: The Electric Mayhem!"

"They don't look like Presbyterians to me."

"What in the name of Fats Waller is that?"

"A four foot prune!"

"Jack, get rid of this heap. Come out here!

"What? What?"

"That's my jack."

"Oh, hi Jack!"

"Jack not name! Jack job!"

"When a German scientist tells you to hold on to your hat, it's not casual conversation. HOLD ON TO YOUR HAT! HAT! HOLD!

Good."

I have an idea, based solely on the last line in the first quote...

The Muppet Movie

?

And my guess is for the original Muppet Movie, not the newest one.

Indeed, it IS.

I thought that was a big clue, myself.

I also included a few quotes that would have reminded ME of the movie.

Most of you are overdue to see this movie again.

See it, it's funny.

===========================================

"Life's like a movie, write your own ending..."

"..keep pretending, keep believing, and that's just what we've set out to do...."

"...with the lovers...the dreamers...and you!"

The Muppets in the theater at the end, working on the movie.

(The last line was a callback to "the Rainbow Connection" from early in the movie.)

"Hey you. You with the banjo. Can you help me? I have lost my sense of direction."

"Have you tried Hare Krishna?"

The Hare Krishna thing was a running gag in the movie, and was even said to be one IN the movie.

"We am, is, are, and be, they whom as are known as: The Electric Mayhem!"

Dr Teeth's band is The Electric Mayhem!

I would have worked out the movie just from that.

"They don't look like Presbyterians to me."

Fozzie, looking in the church and seeing the band practice.

"What in the name of Fats Waller is that?"

"A four foot prune!"

Floyd and Dr Bunsen Honeydew.

"Jack, get rid of this heap. Come out here!

"What? What?"

"That's my jack."

"Oh, hi Jack!"

"Jack not name! Jack job!"

That big Muppet, who picked up care.

"When a German scientist tells you to hold on to your hat, it's not casual conversation. HOLD ON TO YOUR HAT! HAT! HOLD!

Good."

Mel Brooks as the mad scientist.

Go, Raf!

Ok. This is from a movie came out it the mid 80's.

You know what your problem is? Your face. Come on, you're too good-looking. Girls go out with you and get nervous. They feel dumpy, they don't want to compete. They want a guy like... like me. A guy who'll make them look good. A basic Neanderthal type. The swarthy type. A man's man.

Sure.

You know what you are, Martin? You're a 14-carat fu*k-up, that's what you are.

Something wrong?

Godda*# smartmouth. Jesus, you got a mouth! You think people like that mouth? You think customers like it? Mr Big Shot. How come you didn't cut off that dump on canal street?

The Swallow?

Awww, I say dump and he immediately connects with the Swallow! You know what a swallow is?

Oh let me guess, it's a bird?

Yeah it's a bird, a loser bird, a dodo!
