Movie quiz Bob!

OK, I just got here (thanks to bob, and my inability to get a life) and I could have aced all this shit. No, really.

I'll try to stay alert, and maybe I'll do a movie quiz of my own. Yeah, maybe I will.

Here's a tease:
Who said (actor or character) "I could if I wanted to, but I don't want to, see, mug?".

Another: "I know what you want me to do, but I ain't goin' to, so forget it."

Here's the prize: if you get both, I'll pull out of the forum, forever!!

Bob's Movie Quiz...
Evidently sucked...

1. Where's a priest? Somebody fetch me a priest! YOU! Fetch me a bishop!
Peter O'Toole as Henry II in The Lion in Winter.
The clue was Katherine "I'd hang you from the nipples, but you'd shock the ****ren" Hepburn

2. You may smoke, sir. I can still enjoy the smell of it. Hmm, nice state of affairs when a man has to indulge his vices by proxy. You're looking, sir, at a very dull survival of a very gaudy life, crippled, paralyzed in both legs, barely I eat and my sleep is so near waking it's hardly worth a name. I seem to exist largely on heat like a new born spider.
General Sternwood (I tried to give hint) in the Big Sleep
A bottle of 28 year-old Macallan to SD

3. Sorry miss, I was giving myself an oil-job.
"Robby" as the Robot in Forbidden Planet.
The clue was Anne "Howdy Sailor - you're much nicer than Daddy" Francis

4. [An] Injun will chase a thing till he thinks he's chased it enough - then he quits. Same way when he runs. Seems like he never learns there's such a thing as a critter that'll just keep comin' on. So we'll find 'em in the end, I promise you. We'll find 'em. Just as sure as the turnin' of the earth.
John Wayne as Ethan Edwards in The Searchers

5. By the way, you fuck like a world champion. Four fucking hours! I got hungry just watching you.
Raul Julia as Carlos in Tequila Sunrise

6. Now remember, things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. 'Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is.
Clint Freakin EASTWOOD in The Outlaw Josey Wales

7. We've spawned a new race here, Mr. Dickenson. Rougher, simpler, more enterprising, more violent, less refined. We're a new nationality; we deserve a new nation.
Howard Da Silva as Ben Franklin in 1776

8. I have learned from experience that a modicum of snuff can be most efficacious.
John Neville as Baron Munchausen in the Adventures of same

9. Okay, James, I wish you hadn't shot my girlfriend's dog. Even though Poe and I were not exactly what you'd call simpatico, that's no reason he should've taken two in the chest.
Michael Douglas as Prof. Trip in Wonder Boys.

10. KHAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!
Denny Crane in Boston Legal II: Middle Aged Man Love.
A DVD box set of T.J. Hooker - Season and a 1984 Adrian Zmed Calendar to Mole.

C'mon Markino, bring on your quiz!

zzzzzzz . . .huh? Quiz? Uh .. . oh, Sternwood!!
(I knew that one)

I'll get a movie quiz together. I'll do it today, as soon as I deliver the papers, sweep out the store, milk the cow and do the rest of the chores.

Hmmmm. Keep him in. Throw him out. Decisions, decisions.

Is the first Edward G. Robinson? Was the second Jimmy Cagney?

Tell me I'm wrong. I'd hate to have to see you go.

damn

Charles Waldron as General Sternwood

OK, some of you may have noted that "kino" is part of my name.

All in good fun, a short one to test the field:

My first film was "Citizen Kane", my last was "Taxi Driver". Who am I?

MARKino1 wrote:

Well, I guess I'm staying. The first, Bogart in "Treasure of The Sierra Madre".
The second? Come on! Brando, to Eva Marie Saint in "On The Waterfront".

Hmmm . . . a little too tough?

urbs?

bob?

mommy?

Sorry, even with the KINO hint and and brief cheat attempt at IMDB, I'm stumped. Perhaps you could've picke from movies some of us had heard of before?

HAHAHAHAHAHAH.
OK, I'll give you a hint: I also made a significant contribution to a "master of suspense".

MARKino1 wrote:
I glanced at the Taxi Driver credits, and yep, one name now stands out - Bernard Herrmann. I didn't do further reasearch, but with that hint it can't be anyone else - by age alone. So I'll take it on faith that his career bookended like that, and you're not yanking my chain.

Be kind, remember I'm only an 18th-degree Movie Geek, familliar with the works of John Ford and Howard Hawks at best. And obviously, nowhere near as old as yourself.

(Now I want to dig up the NxNW score for that other forum)

bobrysl wrote:

See, I gave it away. Herrmann had to be seduced into writing the score for "Taxi Driver"; he told Scorsese it wasn't "his kind of movie".
And of course, he composed what television theme?

As to Ford and Hawks . . . I'll be back. As soon as I can find my walker.

Smartass.

What film did Hawks "remake", starring Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell?
Who directed the original, and in what way did the two main characters differ from the Hawks version?

MARKino1 wrote:

Pshaw. His Girl Friday. Rosalind lacked the penis that her character normally carried in Ben Hect's original script, and I doubt the duo sucked face previously. I want to say Cukor (Kukor? naw, Cukor) directed the original, but I really don't know.

EDIT - whups - to be clear, and because I know you meant to trip me up, HGF is the remake of The Front Page.

EDIT2 - overlooked your tv theme question. That would be Taxi, of course.

bobrysl wrote:

Nice save on "The Front Page". Lewis Milestone directed. The "Taxi" reference is not even amusing. You've heard, of course, of a little series called "The Twilight Zone"?

Bitchin' show man! Who can forget that host-guy, introducing that whacked shit. It's a shame it got cancelled a couple years ago, has Forest Whitaker had any work since? There was a great episode I remember, I think it was with that "Screech"-dude who knocked-up Monica on Friends - the dude was all crying on the steps of a library or somethin, 'cause he was out of saline for his popped-out contact lens. I didn't really get it, but the mood was intense. It was, like, dude, you're crying! You can use the tears instead of the Baush&Lomb - at least until you get home or find a Wal-Mart. A mind blower, man. Great TV! Ed Herman wrote the songs too, huh? kewl.

I say again:
