The Answers!

Thanks for all the comments about my last Thursday Thirteen.  Most people managed to get a few of the movies, though no one managed all twenty-six.   I would have been staggered if someone had!  Anyway, as I promised some of you in replies to your comments, I am posting the answers to all 26.  Anyone kicking themselves now?

There are a few on the list that I haven't seen so that explains why I didn't recognize all the quotes.

Very interesting … I’ve actually SEEN a few of these (let’s see … I’ve seen #1, 4, 10, 12, 14, 18, 25 and 26), but clearly didn’t pay enough attention to recognize the ‘lines’ in your ‘double’ T-13. Seems like the only one I figured out was #11 … and who wouldn’t recognize that one? LOL
Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend.
Hugs and blessings,

This just proves your wide and eclectic taste in movies - or your IMDB search skills.... :)

Happy Sunday!

I've actually seen more than half of these, but apart from "Love actually" and "Stand by me" (and maybe "Die Hard") I found none of them in any way memorable, I'm afraid. And some of them *cough*BridgetJones*cough* were so downright aggravating and awful that I blocked every memory I might have accidentally retained of it. ;)
But, honestly, some of them, like #3 for instance, were not exactly the most memorable lines from that particular movie anyway. ^.^

Good one! I should have recognised a few of them and I didn't. Will drop by again on Thursday :)

Wow, I should have done better. I know pretty much all of those movies, but I only guessed 6 right. =P

Never seen K-Pax. That's with Kevin Spacey, right?
