Movie quote and screengrab randomizers! Neat-o!

By Burbanked on Oct 6, 2008 in Blogging, Movies, Newest | 424 views |

Take a look at the top of Burbanked’s right sidebar and you’ll see a nifty new widget-combo. Titled HEY THAT AIN’T RIGHT, it’s a combination of a random movie screengrab with a random movie quote, with potentially hilarious results! Both the pic and the quote should refresh each time you visit the page. Let me know if you see any combos that are particularly insightful, symbolic, idiotic or profane, and you can download the quote widget for WordPress from The Movie Quotes page here.

Addictive, I like it! My favorite so far is the Jaws/Brody image with this text:

Patches O’Houlihan:
If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.
Justin:
What?

Adam: I got one with a picture of De Niro from Heat with a quote from Al Capone in The Untouchables - “Somebody steals from me, I’m gonna say you stole from me…”

11.20.2008Dedicated screenwriting 101 here: From an interview with Harrison Ford on the MTV Movies Blog in which the inevitability of another Indiana Jones movie is mentioned:
MTV: Is the ball in George’s court at this point? Ford: It is. That’s the process. With some general input he goes off and searches for the MacGuffin and then stumbles into a story. And at some point we have a chance to take a look at and give some input.
Now granted this is Ford’s opinion of Lucas’ “creative process”, yet still: when one of the three principals of the Indiana Jones legacy classifies the story creation process as a haphazard, one-man effort that only superficially seeks outside input, it’s hard not to feel frustrated. Not surprised, just frustrated. Dear Mr. Spielberg: please put your foot down and either demand a coherent story or walk away. Just do us all a favor, could you? Maybe? (found via FilmDrunk)

11.19.2008Okay, I need your help here. Sonny, Michael Corleone and Tom Hagen keep bringing up the fact that they want to go see Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa.How do I get out of this? I love going to the movies with my boys, opening up their minds to the great pleasures of cinema and all that, but this is a hard one. Please help me: do I suck it up and just go, or can anyone out there provide me with a plausible, kind-hearted, permanent way out? (10)
