The answers to the movie quote meme are up, complete with who guessed what. The ones that were solved have been bolded, the ones that no one got just show what movie it was from. I can't believe nobody got the one from The Blues Brothers! That's a classic! Maybe I should've used the clip about, "It's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."

Digging the Snake Plisskin icon! He helped me get a First-Class Honours degree in the History of Ideas. No really, he did.

Yes that was annoying of me, wasn't it? I had a lecturer at college who was supposed to teach us political history. During a lecture on Hobbes' Leviathan, he spent an hour enthusing about Escape from New York which he'd seen the TV the night before. I joined in - the only one who did - and when I found he was one of the examinors responsible for checking papers in our finals (and having been tipped off that he loved a sly joke slipped into the exam essays), I described Hobbesian man as "an 18th century Snake Plisskin minus the tattoo". I remain convinced that's what swung me the First. Of course I may be wrong. I may be a genius. But I favour the first explanation.

*laughs heartily* Yup, sometimes having a sense of humor and smarts gets you farther than just smarts. (On the other hand, I'm living proof that the sense of humor can get you into trouble, as well--my last boss never quite *got* when I was being tongue in cheek.)
