A very big softball

"We don't need two cars, we have a car. Not one of those cheap new things made of chromium and spit, an Isotta-Fraschini. Have you ever heard of Isotta-Fraschini? All handmade. Cost me $28,000."

Another, with a New Years Eve thing in it

"Ya know, you see a girl a couple of times a week, just for laughs, and right away they think you're gonna divorce your wife. Now I ask you, is that fair?

No, sir, it's very unfair... Especially to your wife."

"Sleepless in Seattle"

"When Harry Met Sally"

I think I got the order right - I knew they were from those movies, but I wasn't certain which was from which.

You are becoming the champ Moose. EXCELLENT.

That's because Jim is so old his memory is fading    =)) =)) =)) =)) =)) =)) =))

There's another one up there, care to take a shot at it.  It's a real oldie (1942) and a true Holiday movie.  (Hint in there)

THIS IS A CONVERSATION BETWEEN A MAN AND HIS WIFE.  PLEASE NOTE THAT SHE ASKS SEVEN QUESTIONS, WHICH HE ANSWERS QUITE SIMPLY.  BUT THEN SHE IS SPEECHLESS IN TRYING TO RESPOND TO ONLY ONE QUESTION FROM HIM.


Wife:     DO YOU DRINK BEER?
Husband:    YES

Wife :      HOW MANY BEERS A DAY?
Husband:    USUALLY ABOUT THREE.

Wife:     HOW MUCH DO YOU PAY PER BEER?
Husband:    $5.00 WHICH INCLUDES A TIP (THIS IS WHERE IT GETS SCARY!)

Wife:     AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING?
Husband:    ABOUT 20 YEARS, I SUPPOSE.

  Wife:     SO A BEER COSTS $5 AND YOU HAVE THREE BEERS A DAY WHICH PUTS YOUR   SPENDING EACH MONTH AT $450.    IN ONE YEAR, IT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $5400 CORRECT?
Husband:    CORRECT!

Wife:     IF IN 1 YEAR YOU SPEND $5400, NOT ACCOUNTING FOR INFLATION, THE  PAST 20 YEARS PUTS YOUR SPENDING AT $108,000 CORRECT?
Husband:     CORRECT!

Wife:     DO YOU KNOW THAT IF YOU DIDN'T DRINK SO MUCH BEER, THAT MONEY  COULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN A STEP-UP INTEREST SAVINGS ACCOUNT AND AFTER ACCOUNTING FOR COMPOUND INTEREST FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS, YOU COULD HAVE NOW BOUGHT AN AIRPLANE?

Husband:    DO YOU DRINK BEER?
Wife:    NO.

Husband:     WHERE'S YOUR AIRPLANE?

I also tried to call Weeze on Christmas Day and just got the machine. I sort of urged him to return a call but, as of now, nothing. I know he posted on this thread, but nothing good. Let's hope he is OK.

And another that has New Years Eve as a backdrop


"All I'm saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don't get him first, somebody else will, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband."

How about a movie that touches on New Year's Eve


There is no way that we are going on a plane to meet some woman who be a crazy, sick lunatic! Didn't you see "Fatal Attraction"?

You wouldn't let me!

Well, I saw it, and it scared the xxxx out of me! It scared the xxxx out of every man in America!

I've been watching some other 'oldies' set in and around the holiday season so they are considered holiday movies.

If you love 'oldies' try these on for size

(No softballs here) (I'm giving you tow quotes from the same movie

#1-- She was sort of a medium built, medium height. With a nice evening gown on with a belt in the back. She's sorta built like the girl I knew from the corner drugstore who used to play pinball. Conshwella Schlepkiss. I remember she was high man three weeks in a row.

#2-- My father was a lot like you, just a man with a family. Never amounted to much, didn't care. But as long as he was alive, we always had plenty to eat and clothes to keep us warm.


-Were you happy?

Yes.

Then your father was a very successful man.


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

And the second movie, also an oldie. (one of my all time favorite holiday movies

"There might be a lot we don't know about each other. You know, people seldom go to the trouble of scratching the surface of things to find the inner truth."

"Well I really wouldn't care to scratch your surface, Mr. Kralik, because I know exactly what I'd find. Instead of a heart, a hand-bag. Instead of a soul, a suitcase. And instead of an intellect, a cigarette lighter... which doesn't work."

Jim got the second one (softball) how about #1. You have TWO quotes from this very famous movie (An oldie--1942)
