[Meme] Let's go to the movies, let's go see the stars

[balsamandash]

I feel like this could easily end up a spam-Dreamwidth day. I am weirdly rambly and thoughtful and also tired which makes actually talking easier. That or a spam-Tumblr day. I guess we'll see. In the meantime, while I try to figure out exactly what I'm gonna be doing, a meme:

• Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
  
• Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie. (Ones that did not have IMDb quotes are *'d.)
  
• Post them here for everyone to guess.
  
• Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
  
• NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search or other search functions

2. Darling, forever is a long, long time, and time has a way of changing things.
3. I have this dream of being whole. Of not going to sleep each night, wanting. -- Practical Magic (named by misbegotten)
4. I've been called many things: the chaos in the story, the anarchy in your thoughts, but for you, John, I am the excuse you give when you cannot follow the rules.
5. Magic is really very simple, all you've got to do is want something and then let yourself have it.
6. Can I do this, or will I look like some sort of gay superhero?
7. It's us. We're choosing who dies.*
8. I don't believe I have to be loyal to one side or the other. I'm simply asking questions.
9. She's gone. And the present is trivia, which I scribble down as fucking notes. -- Memento (named by tommx)
10. Today's news folks, today's late breaking, developing just across my desk news story is this: it's not the end of the world folks. It's just the end of the day.
11. Phone call from God. If it had been collect, that would have been daring! -- Dead Poet's Society (named by tommx)
12. That sounds like a confession to me. In fact the double negative has led to proof positive. I'm afraid you gave yourself away.
13. You could've done of ten thousand things, but in the end, you chose to protect people. You made that decision, and I find that very, very interesting.
14. A toast before we go into battle. True love. In whatever shape or form it may come. May we all in our dotage be proud to say, "I was adored once too." -- Four Weddings and a Funeral (named by misbegotten)

SUCH A GOOD MOVIE

though it's so hard not to quote the longer opening/epilouge off the soundtrack instead of the actual movie

I didn't recognise anything offhand, but searched a couple out of curiosity, and I just really have to share that when I put the entirety of #4 into a search on bing (which my browser defaults to even though my browser is google chrome... idk), this journal was the third thing that came up on the list of results. XD

Also without saying what it is... I think I really need to see that now.

I've been doing that with other people's lists too, heh, googling interesting ones. I am not surprised that of all of them, that's the one that leads back here. That or 7.

It is such a good movie. Super visually interesting, great music, great cast, and just a really interesting premise. The sequel is good too, though that took a bit to grow on me as much. It used to be on Netflix but I don't know if it's on anything else now -- if you get a chance to see it I'd love to hear what you think. :D
