Here 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.

[livejournal.com profile] selenesue has guessed the theme, it is Peter Sellers Movies

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.

You must either be signed into LJ, or say who you are (in case you are a friend of mine who is not on LJ). All anonymous answers will be deleted (hey, I'm obsessive, I want to know who guesses these). Oh, and don't guess as a reply to someone else's guess, on a busy day that makes it hard for me to spot your answer.

01 What is the price of one piano compared to the terrible crime that's been committed here? [livejournal.com profile] bammba_m says "I like to watch" The Pink Panther Strikes Again ... again (my apologies)
02 Ah, so you're going to nothing me to death.. [livejournal.com profile] fredhuggins says "I like to watch" Casino Royale
03 This is just like television, only you can see much further. [livejournal.com profile] filkertom says "I like to watch" Being There
04 Wisdom is the province of the aged, but the heart of a child is pure. [livejournal.com profile] shsilver says "I like to watch" The Party

06 Of course it won't be easy; nothing worthwhile ever is. That is why I have always failed where others have succeeded. [livejournal.com profile] phuphuphnik says "I like to watch" The Pink Panther Strikes Again
07 Any more behaviour like this and I'll have your stripes! [livejournal.com profile] 2wittybird says "I like to watch" The Pink Panther

08 is from THE MOUSE THAT ROARED.

Spoken by Peter Sellers, and since some other of the quotes seem familiar as well, I venture that the theme is Peter Sellers.

#7 - The Pink Panther (the original with the incomparable Peter Sellers.). I'm gonna go with Peter Sellers movies since this is the first quiz where I was able to make several guesses without even *THINKING* "google". :)

05 - Dr. Strangelove. (One of my favorite movies, even if the guess may be wrong!)

"Junior, have y'ever heard of fluoridation?"
"Well, I send my mother roses on her birthday."
"Mandrake, do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... ice cream. Ice cream, Mandrake, children's ice cream."
"Never touch the stuff, myself."
"Neither do I. Only fresh, pure Minute Maid...."

12. "The Wrong Box". My English teacher introduced me to that movie. Very hard to find, but I have a grainy dubbed copy of it. I got extra credit for finding for him on VHS all those years ago.

Hmmm... I also thought #1 was "Pink Panther Strikes Again".

Now I'm puzzled. And my Pink Panther movies are all boxed up for moving...

Hmph.

[livejournal.com profile] eeknight got #9 correct 4 hours before [livejournal.com profile] breakmanz did - why did you give the credit to the second person to guess correctly?
