"Who would you call, Mister Anderson, when you can not speak?"

------------
Agent Smith, The Matrix

EDIT - Text of video puzzle
Steph - Hi everybody, its Steph Frolin here, that’s “Steve” with a ph for all of you calling me
“Steff.” the wife and I are here just trying to figure out where to go on summer vacation. Allright
sweetie, idea number one: the family photo in Pittsburgh.

Feather - Didn’t we see those people last year?

Steph - We did. Next idea: five days in the North Pole hunting Rudolph...

Feather - Sounds VERY cold

Steph - What would you think of two days in London, we can get a picture by a red telephone
booth?

Feather - Sounds like a long way to go to make a telephone call.

Steph - Can we try two weeks in Kenya hunting elephants?

Feather - You know I’m allergic.

Steph - You are allergic, I’m sorry sweetie. Ah! I’ve got us discount golfing in Virginia, only
seven holes.

Feather - GOLFING?

Steph - OK, you’re not a golfing fan. Why not fourth row seats, in Seattle, DEF LEOPARD!

Feather - Fourth row for Def Leopard?

Steph - Fourth row.

Feather - Eh...

Steph - Did you know that one of the seven hills of San Francisco is Telegraph Hill?

Feather - I think there’s more than seven

Steph - I’m pretty sure it’s seven

Feather - Seven? OK...

Steph - We can go ice fishing in Fargo, but we’re going to need 4 wheel drive.

Feather - Ice fishing in the summer? I don’t think so.

Steph - You said no to Def Leopard, what about third row seats to the Philadelphia
Philharmonic?

Feather - Boring...

Steph - Pharoah’s tomb is on tour. Six days in New Mexico.

Feather - Been there, done that.

Steph - Well where do you want to go?

Feather - You know where I want to go.

Steph - Tanga, help me out, where does my wife want to go on summer vacation?

"Mr. Anderson! Don't think that I don't know that this assignment scares the hell out of you most!"

John Keating, Dead Poet's Society

“You know what scares me the most? When I can't fight it anymore, when it takes over, when I totally lose control, I like it.”

-----
Bruce Banner, Hulk (2003)

Yeah, I changed my quote so it would be more coherent, even though I liked the other better. :)

"I'm scared of water."
"No no no. Don't worry, the fall will kill you first."
-Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

"Oh, no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was Beauty killed the Beast"

-Carl Denham, King Kong (1933)

"It's a big pretty plane with curtains in the windows and wheels...it looks like a big tylenol!"

-Johnny, Airplane

"Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?"

Captain Oveur, Airplane

"I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly."

-Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

-----

Never thought I'd be quoting from that series. It was either that or Gladiator. I went with the funny.

[4] Sorry, I LOVE this movie and just couldn't let this quote stand incorrectly:

Butch Cassidy: What's the matter with you?
Sundance Kid: I can't swim.
Butch Cassidy: Are you crazy? The fall will probably kill you.

To continue from [8]...

"I don't wanna badmouth the kid, but he's a horrible, dishonest, immoral louse. And I say that with all due respect."

-Broadway Danny Rose (1984)

"Here's looking at you, kid."

-Rick Blaine, Casablanca (1942)

(Playing off one of Casablanca's other lines:)

"You know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?"

-Vincent, Pulp Fiction

Kate Jerome: And get a quarter of a pound of butter.
Eugene Jerome: I bought a quarter pound of butter this morning. Why don't you buy a half pound at a time?
Kate Jerome: And suppose the house burned down this afternoon? Why do I need an extra quarter pound of butter?
Eugene Jerome: If my mom taught logic in high school, this would be some weird country.

-Brighton Beach Memoirs

"I find it poor logic to say that women should vote because they are good. Men do not vote because they are good; they vote because they are male, and women should vote, not because we are angels and men are animals, but because we are human beings and citizens of this country."

Jo March, Little Women

And if you vote for me, it will be summer all year round.

Summer, Napolean Dynamite

Barry: How do you know this is even related? You did a lot of things last summer.
Julie: Yeah, well, only one murder comes to mind.

I Know What You Did Last Summer

and [9] thanks for the correction - I didn't check it first!

Summer lovin', had me a blast
Summer lovin', happened so fast
I met a girl, crazy for me
I met a boy, cute as can be
Summer days driftin' away
To oh those summer nights

Danny and Sandy, Grease

"The guy's either going think 'here's another guy with a fake ID', or here's McLovin', 25 year old Hawaiian organ donor. Okay? So what's it gonna be?"

Evan AKA McLovin' from Superbad

A fake ID works better than a Guy Fawkes mask

Hammond, V for Vendetta

Our love is like a red, red rose... and I am a little thorny.

The Mask, in The Mask

Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.

V for Vendetta

James T. Kirk: That's why you're staying aboard. I'm sorry, Will.

Willard Decker: No, Admiral, I don't think you're sorry. Not one damn bit. I remember when you recommended me for this command. You told me how envious you were and how much you hoped you'd find a way to get a starship command again. Well, sir, it looks like you found a way.

King Arthur

Judah Ben-Hur: When the Romans were marching me to the galleys, thirst had nearly killed me. A man gave me water to drink, and I went on living. I should have done better if I'd poured it into the sand!

From [58]

He was wracked with confusion. For the first time in his life, he understood the true meaning of the expressions "horns of a dilemma" and "between a rock and a hard place" - although the concept of "paying through the nose" had always tormented him. How does the money get in the nose in the first place? Once in, is it pulled out by hand, or is a sneeze involved? And who would accept such a transaction? Burning questions all, but he had bigger fish to fry

Adam Shipley: Alex & Emma (2003)

"Y'all got on this boat for different reasons, but y'all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything, I know this - they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, ten? They'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more runnin'. I aim to misbehave."

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds, Serenity

A bit long I know, but one of my favorites

You're gonna need a bigger boat

"Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!"

Hardy in Sons of the Desert

That's alright, Laurey baby. You can't forget, just don't try to. Oh, lots of things happen to folks. Sickness or being poor and hungry, being old and a feared to die. That's the way it is, cradle to grave, and you can stand it. There's just one way: you gotta be hardy. You gotta be. You can't deserve the sweet and tender in life unless'n you're tough.

Aunt Eller: Oklahoma! (1999)

Ernest Hemingway once wrote, "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for." I agree with the second part.
