Author Topic: The Film-Tech official movie quote game COMMENTS Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-19-2002 01:01 PM                        Oh, boy! This is about to degenerate into another classic Film-Tech argument! Bring it on, fellas!  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???"

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-20-2002 12:11 PM                     I think there is an uncorrected error in the actual Movie Quote Contest thread. Dave Williams posted the quote, "this can't be happening; it only thinks its happening." Another poster credited the film quote as being from "War Games". Not so. The quote is from "Tron."  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 07-20-2002 01:05 PM                     Can someone please pull out a tape of War Games and check that quote? I do remember that quote or something very similar to it. The actual quote did come from Repo Man, but if the War Games quote is close, we'll let it go.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Gilardi Madam Moderator Posts: 2214 From: Peabody, MA, USA Registered: Dec 2007 posted 07-20-2002 02:23 PM                     How come Dave posted a quote and then answered it 4 hours later? I'm confused?!?! Am I missing something?  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-20-2002 03:02 PM                     Check "Tron" (a movie which preceded both "Repo Man" and "War Games"). The first thing Jeff Bridges says when he gets zapped into the digital world by the MCP is the exact quote Dave Williams mentioned.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 07-20-2002 03:49 PM                        The actual quote is two words more than I posted.. I missed "OH MAN" which comes right before what I said. SO in practice I did not get the quote exact. I do remember war games having a similar quote. Also, rachel, where did I answer my qoute four hours later? I can't find that. Dave  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-20-2002 04:05 PM                     So you agree its "Tron," right? Steve Lisberger talks a little about the significance of Jeff Bridge's quote "this can't be happening, IT only thinks its happening." Kind of an usual use of a personal pronoun.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 07-20-2002 04:42 PM                        My qoute was from tron, and not from war games, however, until I get confirmation that the qoute was not also from war games, I will not cry foul just yet. I am off to the library to check out a copy and will post back in about four hours if no one beats me to it.

What if you successfully stump the rest of the members, which means you have to post the next quote, but you can't think of another one to post? Also, can you use a two or three line conversation between two different characters, or can your quote only be from one character?  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 07-20-2002 10:56 PM                        No luck on the war games front. COuldnt get a copy of it today. ANyone else? Dave.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Gilardi Madam Moderator Posts: 2214 From: Peabody, MA, USA Registered: Dec 2007 posted 07-20-2002 11:28 PM                     Ok ok, I'll watch War Games, I'm starting it right now. Sorry Dave, for some reason I looked at the Magnolia quote and thought it was you. My bad.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 07-21-2002 12:43 AM                     The quote, what ever it actually is, in WARGAMES would be towards the end when James Woods enters the WAR ROOM and looks at the screens and then makes his statement. I can't remember the exact words though.

That quote is not in the movie, not even close.  |  IP: Logged
