The Movie Quote Meme

1. Look at the quotes
2. Pick the movie and the speaker
3. Post them in the comments
4. Try to guess why I picked it

eta. still three to go. Can you guess them?



1. We had the chance but we were scared. We walked away. We lived our lives in fear!
Doug in Strictly Ballroom. [livejournal.com profile] sangerin got this one.

2. Find a place on that bloody wall and focus on that spot. Then whip your head 'round and come back to that spot. Prepare!
Mrs. Wilkinson in Billy Elliot. My favourite movie ballet teacher *g* [livejournal.com profile] seelechen

3. I do ballet because it has nothing to do with the people. Give me tiaras and boys in tights any day
Erik 'O' Jones in Centre Stage *g* [livejournal.com profile] arielladrake

4. Screw you, I'm brilliant and cool
Sara in Save the Last Dance. I knew [livejournal.com profile] sangerin would get this one


5. This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your hearts and souls.

6. Then maybe I don't want to be a princess anymore.
Princess Jasmine in Aladdin. Yay [livejournal.com profile] warlordkittens


7. You're dead and you're still into party politics?

8. "I'm joining the Young Libs."
"I didn't know you were political."
"My father's into job security."
"What? Being the leader of the Liberal party?!"

9. I know other words. Just that no one cares to hear them.

10. Darling, haven't you ever heard of a delightful little thing called boarding school?

Oops, forgot the character name. Er, Mrs Wilkinson? Something like that.

Yep! One of my all time favourite movies.

3 - Eric 'O' Jones, Centerstage
My guess would be because it's a ballet movie, and, well, it's cool. :)

Number six is probably Mia in one of the Princess Diaries movies, and I'm guessing the first. Why? because it's a cute movie?

I loved Looking for Alibrandi, although I couldn't place the quote when I first saw it. :)

1. Strictly Ballroom: Doug
4. Save the Last Dance: Julia Stiles' character.
6. (Dang, I know this...)
My guess for 10 - and it's a complete guess - is the remake of THe Parent Trap, evil almost-stepmother character, as she's getting into the golf cart at the winery. *g*

1. Yep. Of course
4. I knew you'd be the one to get this one
10. Nope. Sound of Music. Baroness *g*

Also, I want to do this meme. I know a bunch of the movies that will be in it. The problem is remembering quotes!

I went to imdb.com - on the side is a link to 'memorable quotes' - that's how I got mine
