Wow...these were really hard and pretty obscure. And a few major quotable classics (and probably gimmes) were not included in here like Happy Gilmore and Big Lebowski.

I liked the fact that these were harder and not your typical quotes. There were about 10 of them that I knew I had seen the movies a couple of times, could almost hear them being said but couldn't place where they were from. Frustrating but fun.

No offense, but I have a problem with any "ultimate" movie quiz with only 3 entries predating 1980. You do realize there are hundreds of truly great quotes from movies predating your childhood, don't you? Here's lookin' at you, kid. I coulda been a contender. Fasten your seatbelts - it's going to be a bumpy night. What we've got here is a failure to communicate. They call me Mister Tibbs! The stuff that dreams are made of. Love means never having to say you're sorry. I'm walking here! We don't need no badges! Plastics! A boy's best friend is his mother. Open the pod bay doors, HAL. Attica! Rosebud. I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!

Where are the great dramas, the musicals, the period pieces, the love stories? Disney isn't the only company who makes good family films. I have a mental list of movies I always type in and some of those always appear on these lists. Action, horror, gangster, sci-fi, and fantasy are not the only genres. I know you don't like this kind of complaint but I still have to try. (Don't take it personally. You know I love you more than my luggage.)

I'm in favor of Quizmaster taking it personally, personally. This list is slightly pathetic in its skew toward movies directed at a young, white, male audience. Could use a major overhaul.

JetPunk for novices: On any quiz, just type in "The Princess Bride" or "Office Space" and you're pretty much guaranteed two good answers! Wouldn't be surprised if it also worked on a "Medieval Poland Economics" quiz. (That said, I did really enjoy the quiz. Good job, Quizmaster!)

I got well above 20, but this list is close to a list of all the movies my friends and I watched growing up. I suspect the quiz maker and I are from similar demographics. I think if you're not from that demographic, this quiz is more obscure than it should be. The "ultimate" quote quiz should not be half-filled with 90's comedies (love them though I do). And some of these selections are really weird. Your choice from Forrest Gump, among 80 classic lines is "Seat's taken"? And Star Wars is "I've got a bad feeling about this"? There are so many better quotes from either of those films. Seems misguided to intentionally pick throwaway lines. Especially because "Sorry I ruined your Black Panther party" is the best line ever anywhere. Ever.

I'm surprised the American Psycho quote is among the 5 least guessed ones since it's pretty memorable and used multiple time during the film. Some of the other quotes on the other hand are so obscure that I could't place them despite watching the corresponding movies more than once.

"Hey you guuuys" is a quote any of the kids in The Goonies would've recognized back then. It was the opening to each episode of The Electric Company, shouted out by Rita Moreno. Each episode also featured a then practically unknown Morgan Freeman as the Easy Reader and Joan Rivers narrating The Adventures Of Letter Man..."faster than a rolling O, stronger than silent E, able to leap capital T in a single bound".

So The Goonies was actually quoting what was, at the time and that generation, a very widely known TV program.

I definitely think of The Electric Company every time I see this quote, but I only know it from the much less successful 2009 reboot.
