'The Killer In Me'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
My favorite movie prayer (for Kalshane):
And shepherds we shall be, for thee my Lord for thee, Power hath descended forth from thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command, we shall flow a river forth to thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine patris, et filii...et spiritus sancti.

What if I bust out crying and put my head on your shoulder?
What if you put it on my husband's shoulder?
Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck, Double Indemnity
(Same source as the inimitable, "I wonder." "I wonder if you wonder.")
For shrift...

He's going to ask me to work on Sunday and I'm going to do it, because I'm a pussy, which is why I work at Initech in the first place.
They all have husbands and wives and children and houses and dogs, and, you know, they've all made themselves a part of something and they can talk about what they do. What am I gonna say? "I killed the president of Paraguay with a fork. How've you been?"

You had me at "Hello".
Jerry Maguire, which, I don't really like, but it keeps going on and on in my head so hopefully this will get rid of it.
Come with me if you want to live.
Terminator 2, Judgement Day
Poor Margeretha, I've never seen her look so pale.
The sun oughta do her some good.
I suspect she won't live through the night, she has four fatal diseases.
And it only takes one.
But she's going to have a beautiful funeral, in a cigar box my Papa gave me, all wrapped up in silver paper.
That's the way to go, if you have to go.
Oh, she has to go.
Tootie and the iceman in Meet Me in St. Louis
Rob, top five musical crimes perpetuated by Stevie Wonder in the '80s and '90s. Go. Sub-question: is it in fact unfair to criticize a formerly great artist for his latter day sins, is it better to burn out or fade away?
High Fidelity
(Even the movie cites aren't helping with lots of these, becuase I've never seen a lot of the movies.)
Let's see, I've quoted an old Barbara Stanwyck movie, "Maltese Falcon," "Victor Victoria", "Lilo & Stitch", "The In-Laws", "Robin Hood," "Ghostbusters"--heck, if anyone remembers one they wanted cites, ask.
Anti-wrinkle creme there may be, but anti-fat bastard creme, there is not.
