OK maybe number one was a bit hard, but I thought some of the others where as well.

I'll give you another quote from 1): "Warning! Warning 29!. This is your third and final warning!

Some one from one of the other teams at my last Academic Decathlon meets, after we swept most the catagories.
'All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others'
That's Animal Farm, which is an AWESOME book.
'Call me Ishmael'
Moby Dick
'Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings'

'One must always have something sensational to read on the train'
The Importance of Being Ernest, which was crap, even for a satyrical farce.

1) The Long Walk.
This (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0257877/)?

Never heard of it, but assuming I found the one you're talking about, it doesn't seem to fit too well with a sci-fi/horror movie.
Cannot think of a name

The original post said books too. The Long Walk was a Stephen King Novella.
It had a PB&J eatin' slob named Stebbins in it who was gunned down after three warnings. I'm pretty sure that's gotta be it.

05-12-2005, 09:55
THX-1138 is a Lucas film, not Kubrik.I deserve a swift kick for that fuck-up. It's one of my favorite movies after all, by the director I've since learned to loathe, hehe.The original post said books too.I forgot that. Hmm...Yeah, now I don't think it's Alien, but I have a vague recollection of a computer voice in a sci-fi saying something like that.If you were thinking of Mother from the original '79 Alien, it/she doesn't say that at any point in the movie.
The two I suggested were from a similar half-recollection. Both THX-1138 & The Prisoner has a lot of it. But it's been way too long since I saw either to be even vaguely sure.

To imagine life being brought down to the lowest common denominator like that... with a walk, no less.

Good, good story. Although I never knew just who tapped Garraty on the back after he won... that irritates me...
