I am avoiding my life, so meme-game!
Actually, I really love this movie meme. I avoided doing it because I think/fear/feel that no one will respond, but ah well. Some of these are inexcusable, but I am unrepentant.
1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it's guessed.
5. NO GOOGLING / using IMDb search functions. Totally cheating, you dirty cheaters.
1. "Anyone who isn't dead or from another plane of existence would do well to cover their ears right about now." -Dogma
2. -"Did you ever imagine it would end like this?"
-"The horse is a surprise." -The Road to El Dorado
3. "No, right. Silence is golden. As the Tremeloes said. Clever guys. Although I think the original version was by, uh, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Great, great, great band. [hums "Silence is Golden"] Oh, shut up."
4. "They popped out of the snow! Like daisies!" -Mulan
5. "A bird may love a fish, signore, but where will they live?" -Ever After
6. "Odd as it may seem, I've just ruled out half of Greek literature, seven fairy tales, ten Chinese fables, and determined conclusively that you are not King Hamlet, Scout Finch, Miss Marple, Frankenstein's Monster, or a golem. Hmm? Aren't you relieved to know you're not a golem?" -Stranger Than Fiction
7. "You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles." -The Princess Bride
8. "In a box. That's the bit I don't like, frankly. That's why I don't think of it." -Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
9. [hitting her husband over the head with a cooking pan] "Who says I can't use a skillet?"
10. "I'm a bagel on a plate full of onion rolls!"
11. "You see - comedy. Love, and a bit with a dog. That's what they want." -Shakespeare In Love
12. "Take your slippers, and may you NEVER have a day's luck with them!" -My Fair Lady
13. "Because, let's be honest, it's a field. Look. Do you see another world out there? No, you see a field. Do you see anything non-human? No, and you know why? Because it's a field!"
14. "May your loss be met with a hurricane of love." -Elizabethtown
15. "The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don't know what the hell they're doing or who on earth they are can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino!" -You've Got Mail

Hints on remaining quotes: Two of the quotes left are from movies that have Colin Firth in them, one of which is a line that he says. One movie has Johnny Depp in it, while another has Orlando Bloom. Three of the movies left are period works set pre-1600, although one only arguably takes place in that time period. One is a musical. One won the academy award for Best Picture. Two take place entirely in France. One is a fantasy movie. One only scored 28% on Rottentomatoes.
