Crawford “discovering” the truth about the murdere, and solving the crime.

Movie Quote Madness
Okay, I’ve seen this at enough different blogs that I now feel compelled to get in on it, too. The First Five Movie/TV Quotes that come into your head (must be from different movies/shows). 1. “I speeek good Eeeenglish! I…
Lace! Of course! Thanks Lisa :)
I feel some kind of (obviously insane) obligation to correct Skinnydan’s Bill and Ted quote. Here’s the whole exchange, which is seared, seared in my memory.
MEDIEVAL UGLY DUDE: Put them in the iron maiden.
TED: Iron Maiden?
BILL and TED together: Excellent!
[both do air guitar]
MEDIEVAL UGLY DUDE: Execute them.
BILL and TED together: Bogus!
Red – Love the Willy Wonka quote. It’s one of my favs too.
Made me laugh with the Bill and Ted quote! Thanks.
Here are mine:
“Is the English dead? Looks dead.” (Alternatively, “Be careful out among them English.”)
Witness
“The Lieutenant says to collect all the ammunition.” “Man! What are we supposed to use? Harsh language?”

A thousand apologies, DaveJ, for the misquote. That should learn me to keep from messing with the classics of Western Cinema.
In the future, I shall stick to The Princess Bride, which I have been known to recite in my sleep.
“You tol’ me to go back to the beginning, so I have.”
skinnydan:
Do not let Dave J’s autistic memory intimidate you! I am SURE he knew what you meant in the quote, and we ALL knew what you meant …even if it wasn’t word for word. Dave J is a freak of nature when it comes to remembering movie quotes (and entire films, really). Good for him, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t play, too.
Go forth and flourish!
“Actually, I look like a can of smashed assholes.”
-Charlie Sheen in “The Arrival,” speaking of the classics of Western Cinema

Movie Quotes
So a lot of folks (see here here and here and here and here , for instance, are listing the first five famous quotes from movies that pop into their heads.
“Dave J is a freak of nature when it comes to remembering movie quotes (and entire films, really).”
I shall take that as the compliment I know it is. :-)
Dave J:
Of course it’s a compliment. But I don’t want other readers to feel like they have to back off just because you’re a freak of nature. If the quote is 99% correct, then I consider it 100% correct, if everyone knows what it actually refers to .
Movie quotes
This game (via here via here via here via here via here) seems to be gathering steam, so here are the first five film quotes which popped into my head (have to be from different movies): Monty, you terrible cunt!…
