May Movie Quote Quiz Results....

I'm sorry this is late. Like really late. I should have posted it on Saturday but we were slaughtering our two lambs. Sunday after we finished folding up we had a surprise call from Dad saying that he had invited some friends of ours to come over. Incoming panic and trying to get the house tidy.
Hurry up and clean the house! We don't want people to think we actually live the way we actually live!
Yep, this picture so true. :)
Monday was busy: Saxon had finally fixed up 'Battle for Middle Earth II' so that we could play it on multiplayer. Note: One of the best computer games ever!
Tuesday even busier: We did school went to Latin Mass at lunch time and after that went to our Catechism lesson. We go pretty much every Tuesday. :) After that we had to go shopping, get fish and chips for dinner and had really tired little kids. But wait, there's more. After we got home Rogan and I had dinner and then had to go out and do the animals in twice. While we had been doing that Mum had gotten the little kids to help clean up dinner and the kitchen and they were going off to bed. Dad and Eden and Saxon had gone to a talk and I basically curled up in my bed reading 'The Spear' and listening to Brandon Heath.

So in other words I've been very busy. And here finally and with big heap time apologies here are the results: 

1. "Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?"
Movie: Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Character talking: Captain America
People who got it right: *Rogan* *Princess* *Benjamin*
This bit! 
2. "My dear chap, I never would have dreamt of depriving you of your moment of triumph. Alas, a moment was all I could spare."
Movie: The Scarlet Pimpernel. Character talking: Sir Percival Blakeney.
People who got it right: Rogan, *Benjamin*


3. "Why do you need a tree? It just... sticks out of the ground and it does what? I don't even know what it does. Come on, honey, dance with the tree." "Oh, it hurts, mom. Please stop."
Movie: The Lorax. Characters talking: Ted and Ted's Mum.
People who got it right: *Anna* *Princess* *Rogan*

4. "Your blood pressure, Mr. . Your wife told me to tell you to watch the anger." "YOU TELL MY WIFE............Thank you. Continue." "Time to take your pill. Not that one. Not that one. Drink plenty of water."
Movie: Spiderman 3. Characters talking: Miss Brant and Mr. Jameson.

People who got it right: No one. You guys have no idea how much I enjoyed putting this one in, that part in the movie is so funny! :)

5. "I told you, I don't like to be manhandled!" "No, I will manhandle you, Jedediah! Now listen, guys, what is your problem, huh? Why can't you just get along?" "Look, we're men. We fight, okay? That's what we do!" "It's kinda how we pass the time."
Movie: Night at the Museum. Characters talking: Jedediah, Larry and Octavius.
People who got it right: *Rogan* *Princess*

6. "Ramona, your sister has a report card. Doesn't that mean you should have one too?" "Uh... No."
Movie: Ramona and Beezus. Characters talking: Ramona's Dad and Ramona.
People who got it right: *Rogan* *Anna*

7. "O? No, I call ladies 'O.' To me O is feminine, and K is masculine. You know, I see a couple, I'm like, 'O-K.' "
Movie: MIB III Character talking: Agent J.
People who got it right: *Rogan*

8. "I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food."
Movie: Finding Nemo. Characters talking: Anchor Chum and Bruce! Now, this was a little difficult ebcause most people said Bruce true, he does say it, so I'll count it as a point for all of you. :)
People who got it right:  *Rogan* *Princess* *Benjamin* *Sophia Moon*

9. "Your Highness, there's your opening if you'll take my advice..." "Lord Melbourne, forgive me but you seem to have confused me with a member of your club. I am not your drinking companion nor your whist partner. I am the husband of your sovereign. And as such, I will make my own decisions, and I neither seek nor invite your advice. Good evening."
Movie: The Young Victoria. Characters talking: Lord Melbourne and Prince Albert. This is a great movie and this bit always makes me grin because Melbourne gets put in his place so skillfully by Albert. :) Love this movie!
People who got it right: *Rogan*.

10. "Day 11, Test 37, Configuration 2.0. For lack of a better option, Dummy is still on fire safety. If you douse me again, and I'm not on fire, I'm donating you to a city college. Seriously, we're just gonna start off with 1% thrust capacity. And three... two... one. Please don't follow me around with it either because I feel like I'm going to catch on fire spontaneously. Just stand down. If something happens, then come in."
Movie: Iron Man. People who got it right: *Benjamin* *Rogan*

The end results:
Rogan: 17
Benjamin: 8
Princess: 8
Anna: 4
Sophia Moon: 2.

And my little brother is the winner! That was really fun! Thank you to everyone who particaptaed! It was very enjoyable! :D

God Bless

I think I'm officially X-Mened


So early this year I watched the first and second X-Men's. They are my sister Autumn's official number one 'super hero' movies. Although they are really quite different from any other super hero movies, and if I was classing them, I'd say that they were mutant movies, but that doesn't make much sense unless you've actually seen them.
Anyway, as most X-men fans know, X-Men: Days of Future Past is coming out in a few days at the movies. Some friends want to go and see it with us. The same who came to see Captain America: Winter Soldier with us. Also, I've pretty much dumped that blog post as it is now a while since I've seen it. Maybe I'll review when ti comes out on DVD or something. Rabbit trail.
Anyway so going to see that means that I need to watch the other X-Men movies for it to make any sense. So on Friday night we sat down to watch X-Men: First Class. Now, before watching this movie I thought X-Men were okay, but that the franchise was not one that was really going to 'click' with me. Boy was I wrong!


X-Men: FS has got to be the best out of the four I have seen. It was so good! I loved all of it. It also had great back-story and really set up the other X-Men movies and explains some of the people and their stories. Most notably, Charles Xaiver, Erick Lensherr, and Mystique. My personal favourtie character was, wait for it: Professor X. Okay, I just loved him! He was so cool! I had hear the line 'It's a mutation, it's actually a very groovy mutation many times before. And then I finally heard it on the movie! We quote it better though. :) Magneto had an interesting story-line, but I didn't really connect with him. Mystique was good until, mmm, probably the middle.
The finale and ending were also really good! I can't really take Professor X's line seriously though: 'I can't feel my legs!' Because this is all I can think of:

Obviously Frozen has rubbed off on me good. :) But it was kind of sad because you know that he is just stuck in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
We watched The Last Stand last night, and frankly, I didn't think much of it. Yes, it might set it up for the DOFP but it doesn't mean that I'll be in a hurry to watch it again.
So you could say that I've been x-trenmly busy watching x-tra cool movies. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Now all I've got to do is wait for that trip to the movies, and maybe, who knows, I could fit int eh two Wolverine movies before then. :D
And it is time for me to go to bed! Good night!

God Bless

May Movie Quote Quiz edition

Hi everyone! Long time no see, right? Well look I'm finally back! Things have sizzled down here (at last) and are getting back to normal. Thank you to everyone who offered a prayer for my sister, we got her to see reason, Praise the Lord!

And now, I'm back and ready to once more be doing some blogging. And now, this month's MQQ.
The Rules:
1. Don't look any of the quotes up on the internet, or any other "looking-up" device.
2. Submit your answers in a comment on this post. You may submit as many comments as you need to, depending on when you remember the different quotes.
3. You score one point for every correct answer you submit -that's telling me what movie the quote is from- and you can also earn an extra point by telling me who said the quote!
4. You MAY ask immediate family members (parents, siblings, pets, etc.) for help and you MAY watch a movie again to see if one of the quotes is in it (of course, that would probably be a waste of time, but whatever :P
Three new rules I have added:
5. I am the judge, some of the answers that people give are some times rather obscure and hard to work out. I reserve the right to judge if they got the point (for the people or movie it doesn't matter).
6. If you say the characters, but not the movie, you still get a point.
7. Have fun!

1. "Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?"


2. "My dear chap, I never would have dreamt of depriving you of your moment of triumph. Alas, a moment was all I could spare."

3. "Why do you need a tree? It just... sticks out of the ground and it does what? I don't even know what it does. Come on, honey, dance with the tree." "Oh, it hurts, mom. Please stop."


4. "Your blood pressure, Mr. (name). Your wife told me to tell you to watch the anger."  "YOU TELL MY WIFE............Thank you. Continue." "Time to take your pill. Not that one. Not that one. Drink plenty of water."

5. "I told you, I don't like to be manhandled!"
"No, I will manhandle you, (name)! Now listen, guys, what is your problem, huh? Why can't you just get along?"
"Look, we're men. We fight, okay? That's what we do!"
"It's kinda how we pass the time."

6. " (name), your sister has a report card. Doesn't that mean you should have one too?" "Uh... No."

7. "O? No, I call ladies 'O.' To me O is feminine, and K is masculine. You know, I see a couple, I'm like, 'O-K.' "
Watching The Game Plan, can't you tell?

8. "I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food."
9. "Your Highness, there's your opening if you'll take my advice..."
"Lord (name), forgive me but you seem to have confused me with a member of your club. I am not your drinking companion nor your whist partner. I am the husband of your sovereign. And as such, I will make my own decisions, and I neither seek nor invite your advice. Good evening."
