The film quote thingy

So, with apologies to Darc and Traxer (and everyone else)...
Rules are:
1. Pick 15 of your favourite movies. (Not necessarily in order).
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 to answer!

  1. “Is it really worth the price?” “I pay it gladly.”
  2. “Oh, fuck off, grasshopper!”
  3. “Bogies my ass, them's Bandits!”
  4. “That was bad! Bad Intelligence!”
  5. “Does it come in black?”
  6. “Sort out your boobs man, you look like a bleedin' Picasso!”
  7. "And the great whore will suckle us until we are fat and happy and can suckle no more.”
  8. “I am, however, wearing full body armour. I am not a moron!”
  9. “I love it when a posh bird talks dirty!”
  10. "Do I look like I give a damn?"
  11. “But you did not say “God bless you” when I sneezed!”
  12. “What do stars do?”
  13. “Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.”
  14. “Every time they run, we take a shot.”
  15. “That punk is either in love with that guy's daughter or he has a new-found respect for life!”

So there we are, some of the films are better known than others, some of the quotes are easier than others (anyone gets number 3 and I'll be impressed!) and there are a few other films that the only quotes I could use would be too easy. Leave your answers as comments and I'll be able to give credit where it's due. First come first served for credit but if you answer without looking at other people's answers we'll know you were good. And that's what matters.
Enjoy.

*Edit* That was fast, Sian's got 7 of them. I'll leave the answers in the comments section until either they're all got or I think that everyone that's going to try has done. :D

I think I might have a week of night's coming up soon, and if so this could well be my program for what to watch. Although I'll need to buy one of them, and another isn't out on DVD yet (bit of a clue).

Well, only one person gave it a try, which says quite a bit about the number of people that read this ;( and Swiral has put up one of her own, which is much more of a challenge, so here's the list of films. I'd recommend them all, and they're all now out on DVD.
  1. Equilibrium
  2. Hot Fuzz
  3. By Dawn's Early light - 90's nuclear war film.
  4. Team America, World Police
  5. Batman Begins
  6. Robin Hood: Men in Tights
  7. Gladiator
  8. Serenity
  9. Dog Soldiers
  10. Casino Royale
  11. Dogma
  12. Stardust
  13. V for Vendetta
  14. The Incredibles
  15. Grosse Point Blank
So there we go. 15 of my favourite films. A couple of them are less well known (By Dawn's... in particular) and the quote from The Incredibles was one of the more obscure, but it was fun to do.
