Ultra-tricky movie quote thread! I've got no prizes other than my enduring loyalty, but from what movie did these lines come...?→[More:]"This is your heart line, and your head line, and your life line. You got very strange lines." {Laughter} "No, it's not funny. See, according to this, you're already dead."

No clues, nothing other than my admiration for correctly guessing the film (which I'm watching now).

Here's a bit more, right after those lines, for the heck of it: "You're outta here, baby. Just give me your blue eyes before you go."

I know but I'm not saying.

Jacobs Ladder. Easy - next!

I knew that.

Aw shit. Okay, try this:

"Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void... without the slightest inkling of who or what is out there."

Oh, and super extra bonus points:

"What the next syllable, Mario?"

Flash Gordon. I may possibly have cheated.

Cheat or no, Amro and Urbanwhaleshark are 1 point a piece. "What's the next syllable, Mario?" is still in play, and is ultra-pointage. Here's another one pointer up for grabs (try not to cheat cuz it's more fun):

"The only reason you stay here is so you can f*ck my mother and eat her food."

And here's a slightly easier one:

"Here I am, J.H."

PS: As if you couldn't tell, I'm drunk.

Oh, for the love of G*d: first cue would have to do with "banks," and possibly an earlier incarnation of the one who went down the rabbit hole. Second clue might just have to do with ductwork.

Sorry to leave you hanging, moonbird. It's River's Edge. But I cheated. I knew I knew it, but it was driving me MAD! I loved that movie, especially Crispin Glover.

Dunno. Is that Mario one, Mean Streets?

I hate the police, don't you?

I don't know, but I seem to feel better when they're not around.

Here's one: "When I start a book, I always turn to the last page first. That way, if I die before the book ends, I know what happens. That, my friend, is a dark side."

Why am I getting a Kevin Smith vibe off that quote? Or am I just waaaaay off base?
