    My wife and I love movies, especially old movies. One year, for a week-long family vacation, we created a movie quotes quiz. It was fun.

    So here's what I'm thinking:
    - In order to reply, you must know the answer to the current clue.
    - You can provide a quote, plot, character, anything that is specific enough that there is only one answer but clever enough to make it challenging.
    - It's impossible to know whether people are Googling the answers but try to resist.

    Here's the first one:

    Hmm, I like this one Tony, great game.

    Ok here goes. First off, funny a** movie! Answer is Napoleon Dynamite!



    Here's my QUOTE:

    "What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad."

    Oh, my bad. I thought the "what knockers" comment was a reference to the scene in Cool Hand Luke where then woman is washing her car in front of the Chain Gang. I didn't realize it was a quote from another movie.

    He laid down to die, but was awoken by the rain.

    No, not Sybill. ;)

    KK, that's from Blade Runner (AKA Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, before the rich themes were replaced by special effects.)

    Need a hint for "So many moods..."?
