I Promise, I'll Be Right Back! Quiz

Answer: The Terminator

This quote is from "The Terminator", which sees Arnie sent back from the future to kill Sarah Connor, the future mother of rebel leader John Connor. After uttering the famous line Arnie does indeed come back, in a car, right through the front door! Although most remembered for its use in the "Terminator" series of films, Arnie has been using it in movies before and since, notably:
"Commando" (1985) - "I'll be back, Bennett!"
"Raw Deal" (1986) - "I'll be right back."
"Last Action Hero" (1993) - "I'll be back.... Ha! Bet you didn't expect me to say that!"

Answer: Scream

This quote is given to us courtesy of the character Randy, while at Stu's house party. My favorite piece of trivia for "Scream" is that to make sure Drew Barrymore looked genuinely scared and upset, the director Wes Craven kept telling her real life stories about animal cruelty. She's an avid animal lover in real life.

Answer: Pulp Fiction

This quote is from "Pulp Fiction". In the film, Christopher Walken explains to a young Butch what his forefathers had to go through to get the watch back which involved his father putting the watch in an unconventional hiding place, among much else. A very upset Butch now has to risk going back to his house while a bunch of gun-toting gangsters are after him! Against the odds, Butch does make it back, with a chopper no less (cheers Zed!).

Answer: The English Patient

Ralph Fiennes plays the title role in "The English Patient", which won an incredible nine oscars, and was nominated for three others. A fantastic achievement! Ralph plays the Count, a man who loses his memory in a plane crash but keeps having flashbacks of his former life, notably one with his love interest Katharine Clifton, played by Kristin Scott Thomas.

Answer: Tomorrow Never Dies

"Tomorrow Never Dies" sees Bond played by Pierce Brosnan (Irish). Bond admits Paris got too close for comfort, in a bedroom scene, later on. Elliot Carver (the super-villain for this particular outing) tries to get China and the U.S into an all-out war after staging a skirmish on Chinese territories to expand his global media presence.
"Dr. No" was Sean Connery's (Scottish) first outing as the smooth spy.
"On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was George Lazenby's (Australian) horrible attempt.
"The Living Daylights" featured Timothy Dalton (Welsh).

Answer: Dumb and Dumber

This quote is taken from "Dumb and Dumber", my all-time favorite buddy movie. The film sees Lloyd Christmas, played by Jim Carrey, and his equally moronic friend Harry trying to return a brief case to a limo passenger of Lloyd's named Mary. This scene is where Lloyd needs change to get a paper and asks a sweet little old lady to watch his stuff while he goes in "to break a dollar".

After this quote though, she robs him! Funny stuff.

Answer: E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial

E.T. learns to talk in the movie by copying Gertie watching "Sesame Street"! Gertie was played by the now very famous Drew Barrymore at the tender age of just seven years old. And would you believe Drew never finished high school? Shows what you can do when you have Steven Spielberg as a Godfather!

Answer: The Running Man

Arnie plays Ben Richards, who is set up and forced to fight for his life in "The Running Man" game show hosted by Damon Killian. True to his word (as always!) Richards does indeed come back. The film is loosely based on a novel written by Stephen King that he wrote under the assumed name of Richard Bachman. He wrote the story in 72 hours.

Answer: American Gangster

This film saw Denzel Washington in the lead role with Russell Crowe as the maverick detective hell-bent on bringing him down. Real buffs will remember the original theatrical trailer which had the above quote playing in the background. In the film, he says the line while talking in a diner to his young protégés and followers. Frank Lucas was born in 1930 in North Carolina and operated in Harlem in the late 1960s - 1970s.

He managed his business so well by cutting out the "middle-men" of drug trafficking, thus enhancing profits.

Answer: Cast Away

Tom Hanks leads in this film. "I'll be right back" is what he says to his wife but, as you can guess, the plane crashes and Tom is stranded on a desert Island. Wilson is the name of the ball that Tom Hanks finds and names.
Mr Wilson appeared in "Dennis the Menace" cartoons, comics and film alike. In "Pulp Fiction", Butch has to throw a fight against Wilson and in "The Rocker", the character of Fish was played by Rainn Wilson (such a cool name!)
