4) -She had dozens of boyfriends -Hundreds -Hundreds? -Yeah, hundreds. -Well, I did not know that.
5) "It's a condition of mental divergence…Are you also divergent, friend?"
12) This road-trip movie starts in Coer d’Alene, Idaho
15) She (in this quote) = George Sands
20) Two Australians star as two American cops (and one’s in another movie on my list)
21) This line is sung, not said, by Mandy Patinkin
22) 1959; other movies by this director include Inherit the Wind (1960) and Judgment at Nuremburg (1961)

No on (12), yes on (3), and I'll give credit on (4) since that's what I call it most of the time.
Close game. This might go to a tie-breaker
Final hints:
12) The two main characters in this movie are named Victor Joseph and Thomas Builds-a-fire. 15) Chopin is played by Hugh Grant, and Emma Thompson has a small role in this movie about 19th century artists. 22) Nuclear winter is coming and Australia's the last place people can live (although not for long because the nuclear cloud is coming; it's a pretty bleak movie)

12 - oh my stars, I saw this movie. In college. With...Justin, who was three years younger than me and on whom I had a raging crush. I remember this movie! I can't remember the name!

Dr. Strangelove resigns, this is his sister on his name. He can't bother with it this weekend or something...

Okay. Anyone besides Javert, katharina or Dr. S want to do a list? I think they've shown adequate antipathy to justify moving on. Maybe Leonide, who was the next highest scorer on the previous list?

Okay, since no one else did one, I went ahead and did it. Spent half the morning on it too. I think it'll probably be pretty easy, so to give everybody a fair chance, we'll go with 3 guesses every 3 hours. I'm going to be out of town, but my sister (libertygirl) said she would proctor it, so any other questions can be referred to her. Have at it!
1. Can a heart still break after it's stopped beating? Corpse Bride, Blackblade
2. Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines. Airplane!, Dan_Raven
3. Don't worry, Mary-Kate. His hair plugs can't hurt you. Snakes on a Plane, Nighthawk (Blame IMDB for any bad quotes. I couldn't remember exactly)
4. For you, killing your son was like running a over a dog in the street. Just something in your way. Romeo Must Die, Blackblade
5. “Tom was in an accident and now he only has a ten-second memory.” “I was in an accident? That's terrible.” “Don't worry, you're totally gonna get over it in about three seconds.” 50 First Dates, TheGrimace
6. “Since we have been together I have felt more uncomfortable, out of place, embarassed, and just physically sick then I have in my entire life.” Along Came Polly, Strider
7. “You humans, most of you, subscribe to this policy of an eye for an eye, a life for a life, which is known throughout the universe for its... stupidity.” K-PAX, The Grimace
8. “I know it does, I've seen it. That's why the rest of me is just going to enjoy the show because we already know that I'm the one that beats you.” Matrix Revolutions, Nighthawk
9. “For the last six months, he's gone to Harvard and Berkeley. I'm betting he can get a passport.” Catch Me If You Can, jehevoid
10. “All you people are so scared of me. Most days I'd take that as a compliment. But it ain't me you gotta worry about now.” Pitch Black, Nighthawk (I don't know why I told her Chronciles of Riddick. My bad)
11. “I've never lived closer to danger, but I've never felt safer. I've never felt more confident, and people could spot it from a mile away. And as for this, the violence? I gotta be honest - it grew on me. Once you've taken a few punches and realize you're not made of glass, you don't feel alive unless you're pushing yourself as far as you can go.”
12. “Are you a God-fearing man, Senator? That is such a strange phrase. I've always thought of God as a teacher; a bringer of light, wisdom, and understanding. You see, I think what you really fear is me.” X-Men, TheGrimace
13. “His farger? What's a farger?” , Austin Powers in Goldmember, TheGrimace
14. “Whatever female-based, emotion-driven dilemma you may be dealing with right now, you have my sympathy. But right now, we need to break this down into male-based, fact-driven logic.” Red Eye, Blackblade
15. “She had the personality of a ZIP code in Kansas.”
16. “That's right. What am I thinking? I'm used to sailing down under with the kiwis so everything's backwards and the toilets when you flush them, the water spins the opposite way. Really freaks you out the first time you see it.” Wedding Crashers, jehovoid
17. “I’ve never sought glory as a lover” “What then, Senor Casanova, do you seek?” “A moment that lasts a lifetime”. Casanova, TheGrimace
18. “What I am saying to you, is that you are the kind of club-toting, raw-meat-eating, Me-Tarzan-You-Jane-ing big bald bubblehead that can only count to ten if he's barefoot or wearing sandals.” Cool Runnings, happyman
19. “Oh, hey, hey, hey, I got another question. Hey, uh, if one part of the mob gets separated from another part of the mob, shouldn't there be a place that we can get together? Maybe a secret place the two mobs could reunite, and we'd be a big mob again.”
20. “You can't come back with a comeback after eight seconds. You got three seconds. Five, tops. It's called a quip, not a sloooowwwwp.” Shallow Hal, Strider
The Grimace:5 BlackBlade:3 Nighthawk:3 Strider:2 Happymann:1 Dan_Raven: 1 Jehovoid:2

4) Romeo Must Die 1) Coprse Bride 8)Pretty Sure its Revolutions but just in case I can cherry pick this one "Matrix Reloaded" 14) Red Eye (Since I know I didnt get 8 I tossed in this guess).

Ok well I talked to Strangelove on the phone and he said that it was Pitch Black and he had just written the answer wrong. I've never seen either movie but the answer he mistakenly wrote was Chronicles of Riddick so you get it either way Nighthawk. Happymann, Grimace, and Strider you are all right.

Strider: i can't believe you recognized any quote from Along Came Polly at all. I've tried valiantly to burn that movie from my memory banks.

I haven't seen it. But, if I did, I certainly wouldn't admit it.

That remains the only movie i seriously contemplated walking out of. Too bad i'm too lazy to make smart decisions like that.

I'm back now. I'll give hints if you want. (I'll wait for someone to say yes or no before I do. I'm pretty bad at giving hints, so likely when I give them, if you've seen the movie you'll get it.)

Ok, I'll give the name of the actors who said the lines. This should give it away if you've seen them, so first come first serve I suppose.
11: Elijah Wood
15: Steve Martin
17: Heath Ledger
19: Some random dude. Rob Schneider was the main character though.
Also, all of the movies are from the last 10 years. I'll give it another day, and if no one gets the last 4 by tomorrow night, TheGrimace wins it.
