ericcolemanHere are the rules.
Answer only one quote.
If you answer more than one I will delete your reply. If there are quotes still not answered the next day I will open it up to any and all guesses.
Most weeks there is a theme. If there is not a theme I will tell you. The theme is open to guess even if you have guessed a quote.
Don't use a search engine (like this can be enforced). If you don't know, you don't know. Maybe next week you will.
There is at least one that I think may stump people outright ... but a lot of you should know (or at least have seen) a lot of these.
01I am fearful when I see people substituting fear for reason. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mike46 got this one, The Day The Earth Stood Still (Still my vote for the greatest SF movie of all time)
02This isn't paper, it's some kind of metal! pheltzer got this one, This Island Earth (even with one word missing)
03Here's the sixty-four dollar question - what do you do with a vegetable? shsilver got this one, The Thing From Another Planet
04We had to dig him out from under the most peculiar things I ever saw. shsilver got this one, Invasion Of The Body Snatchers
05I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over.. partiallyclips got this one, 2001: A Space Odyssey
06You are a menace. A walking pestilence. wyngarde got this one, Planet Of The Apes
07He is the result of the stupidity of the men of your century. You failed to stamp out lawlessness and in the end the criminal became stronger than the law. mike46 got this one, Buck Rogers, either the original serial or the cut down movie version.
08By the grace of God, and the name of the United States of America, I take possession of this planet on behalf of, and for the benefit of, all mankind. selenesue got this one, Destination Moon
09You know when I was a kid, I put a note into a bottle and it had my name and address on it. And then I threw the bottle into the ocean. And I never knew if anybody ever found it. 1phish2phish got this one, Silent Running
10David Copperfield. Chapter one. I am born. Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show. (and no, it's not David Copperfield that I'm looking for). bibliofile got this one, Fahrenheit 451

Date: 2007-05-14 01:55 pm (UTC)but is the theme sci-fi?
Yup ...

Date: 2007-05-14 02:37 pm (UTC)I think the real first words on the moon were much better than that, but they had more time to script those. [snerk] Who wrote THAT script anyway? I mean, how corny, "Neil Armstrong, All American Boy, and his faithful sidekick Buzz"? If you submitted something like that today, the editors would laugh you out of the office.

Date: 2007-05-15 01:59 am (UTC)More than you maybe wanted to know. I was not the only one to guess it. Upon examination, it doesn't fit the theme AT ALL. That would be a cool movie. GWTW with added aliens.

Date: 2007-05-14 11:48 pm (UTC)I think, from the context, that #10 might be from Fahrenheit 451. What a terrible book (F451) to read when you're working in a used bookstore where you can buy books for a quarter. I haven't had enough shelf space, since.
