Name that Flick

[WordWolf]

Here's how the quotes broke down:

"What is it?"

"The sound of treachery."

Nemo, in response to Gray's actions.

"We'll be at this all day."

Dorian Gray, immortal, to Mina Harker, vampire, as they dueled, cut each other,

and both healed instantly.

I still keep picturing Johnny Depp as Dorian Gray.

"Empires crumble. There are no exceptions."

Gray, refusing the Fantom's offer to join his regime.

"You're sweet... and you're young. Neither are traits that I hold in high regard."

Mina Harker to Agent Sawyer.

""The empire is in peril."

"You're probably too young to know, but the empire is always in some kind of peril."

Alan Quatermain, responding to a panicked recruiting agent.

"My dear girl, I've buried two wives- and many lovers- and I'm in no mood for more of either."

Alan Quatermain, telling Mina Harker he wasn't flirting with her.

(Nor wanting her as a teammate.)

"They told me European women had funny ways."

Sawyer, after Mina Harker takes out her attacker.

"You're a team, like Bert and Ernie, Superman and Clark Kent, Milli and Vanilli."

***

"We wanna buy some lumber."

"What kind of lumber?"

"Wood!"

***

"Don't talk to me you Benedict Arnold! You... Judas Priest!"

Cute but ultimately bad movie.

Need more clues.

Going from memory:

"Your mom's here."

"Whoopee!"

[Raf]

"He's so manly that he would go out of his way -- if he fell out of a building -- to land on a girl."

*****

"I melt like a Popsicle on the Fourth of July."

[Raf]

I'm out of clues, guys. Best I can tell you is that it was a 90s update of a very, very old TV show.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Car 54, Where Are You?"?

George

[WordWolf]

"Dragnet"?

Wait, "the Beverly Hillbillies"???????

[Raf]

none of the above.

[WordWolf]

I'm confident I haven't seen this one.

In fact, upon bowing out, I can say with confidence that I honestly do not recall

even hearing that this was filming, filmed, playing, on DVD, or on cable,

nor have I ever seen even a billboard.

Frankly, I'd dismiss this as an urban legend if you weren't asserting you've actually

SEEN it.

[Raf]

So, am I hearing "uncle"?

(the above is not a hint).

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I'm drawing a blank here, too.

Gotta make it easy, then. IMDB's giveaway quotes:

"If you were my kids, I'd punish you."

"If we were YOUR kids, we'd punish ourselves!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"We just moved into town. My father bought the oil refinery."

"That explains why you're so refined!"

"Yeah, and so oily!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wood doesn't grow on trees!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I... Member in good standing of the He-Man Woman Haters Club, do solemnly swear to be a he-man and hate women and not play with them or talk to them unless I have to. And especially: never fall in love, and if I do may I die slowly and painfully and suffer for hours - or until I scream bloody murder."

[WordWolf]

Well, NOW I would have gotten it, but I already disqualified myself earlier.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Still not sure. There was a "Little Rascals" movie in 1994 (at least according to IMDb, which I didn't actually look at, but I googled "Little Rascals" and saw that it's listed on IMDb). Since I didn't actually google the quotes, I feel justified. Anyway, was that it?

Otay...I think you got it GSG... but I remember Alfalfa giving that oath to Spanky in the old shorts

It was the little rascals.

Whoopi Goldberg played Buckwheat's mom, which gives that particular quote a little added humor.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Just to whom do you think you are talking, Mr. Marshall?"

"You is to whom I think I am talking, Ma'am."

"It's true that you are larger than me... but only physically."

"In this case, my dear lady, that is enough."

"Do you mean to tell me that you are prepared to use brute force?"

"That is exactly what I mean to tell you."

[pause] "Oh."

George

[WordWolf]

"Maverick"?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Nope. Older flick.

[Ca_dreaming]

Well, I declare if it's not one of my favorites:

John Wayne and Katherine Hepburn in Rooster Cogburn

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Not to be confused with "True Grit."

You're right, Dreamer!

George

[Ca_dreaming]

How's the mother?

She's dying. But I could still hear her big mouth.

[Suda]

Sounds like Tony on "The Sapronos"

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Except, of course, that this is Name that FLICK...
