Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. McClane: "Yeah. But all things being equal, I'd rather be in Philadelphia. By the way, chalk up two more terrorists."

Answer: Die Hard

Bruce Willis and Alan Rickman do battle in this fast-paced, explosive-filled, action movie in which Willis plays a New York cop, facing off against a team of terrorists holding his wife and others hostage in a Los Angeles office building.

By the time Bruce Willis says this line things are starting to heat up. He's slowly whittling down the number of terrorists and has found some outside help in the portly shape of LAPD Sergeant Al Powell played by Reginald VelJohnson, who is perhaps best known as Carl Winslow from "Family Matters", the TV show which introduced the world to the joys of Urkel.

In 1989 this film was nominated for four Oscars: Best Sound Effects Editing, Best Visual Effects, Best Film Editing and Best Sound. It actually won the award for Best Foreign Language Film at the Japanese Academy Awards in 1990.
2. O'Reilly: "Don't you ever say that again about your fathers, because they are not cowards. You think I am brave because I carry a gun? Well, your fathers are much braver because they carry responsibility, for you, your brothers, your sisters and your mothers."

Answer: The Magnificent Seven

"The Magnificent Seven" is one of the greatest western movies ever made. A small village in Mexico is being harassed by a gang of bandits. They enlist the help of seven tough guys to help them defend their village. They are fast-shooters and knife experts who ultimately teach the villagers to stand up for themselves and, in some cases, make the ultimate sacrifice in the battle of good against evil. The movie was heavily influenced by "The Seven Samurai" directed by Akira Kurosawa.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a tougher bunch of guys in one movie: Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, James Coburn and Charles Bronson. Each went on to play some of the toughest, manliest characters in film.

This line is spoken by Bronson to three village boys who look up to him and have just disparaged their fathers for being cowards.

Steve McQueen, in fact, almost missed out on acting in this movie. The shooting schedule was incompatible with the TV series he was in at the time, "Wanted: Dead or Alive". McQueen had a car "accident" and shot TMS during his sick leave.
3. Callahan: "Well, I'm all broken up over that man's rights."

Answer: Dirty Harry

This is the one that started it all. Clint Eastwood stars in five Dirty Harry movies in all. The fifth is "The Dead Pool". Eastwood also directed the fourth instalment in the series, "Sudden Impact".

Harry Callahan is on the trail of a killer named Scorpio. Scorpio has killed already and will kill again, and he's kidnapped a girl. Harry is trying to find her before she's killed. Harry actually does catch Scorpio and it's fair to say that he tramples all over his rights in an attempt to find the girl. The District Attorney gives Harry a right-royal dressing down concluding with, "What I'm saying is that man had rights". This line was Harry's response.

For all the talk about Harry Callahan's ready use of firearms, the body count at the end of this movie is only seven: three to Harry and four to the Scorpio killer.
4. Max: "We had a contract. I did my job, I got my car and I got my gas. End of story."

Answer: Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior

The Mad Max franchise is one of the most successful series of movies ever made in Australia. All three movies were directed by George Miller, with George Ogilvie co-directing "Beyond Thunderdome".

Mad Max 2 is set in a futuristic, post-apocalyptic Australia when fuel is scarce and viciously protected. The only law still in force is the law of the jungle. Our hero, Max Rockatansky, helps a small community against a band of maurauding bandits, wanting fuel for his car, "The Interceptor". After Max has initially helped the community he is intent on taking his car and fuel and leaving. The community's leader, Pappagallo, wants him to stay and keep helping them to reach Paradise but Max prefers to be on his own. This is what he tells Pappagallo when he's asked to stay.

Miller actually trained and qualified as a doctor before becoming involved in film-making. The legendary violence of the "Mad Max" movies was, to some extent, inspired by some of the injuries he had seen in the casualty ward of St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney, where he did his residency.
5. Rocky: "I was nobody. But that don't matter either, you know? 'Cause I was thinkin', it really don't matter if I lose this fight. It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either, 'cause all I wanna do is go the distance."

Answer: Rocky

Rocky Balboa is an amateur boxer who is given a shot at the big time; he's selected to fight the world champion, Apollo Creed. As the big fight rapidly approaches, Rocky realises that he can't actually beat Creed. He tells his girlfriend, Adrian. But he also realises that just having the opportunity to get in the ring is what he's really been after. This line is spoken to Adrian when he tells her he isn't going to win.

This movie started the long and indecipherable career of Sylvester Stallone. It won three Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director and Best Film Editing.

Stallone was actually nominated for Oscars for Best Actor and Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen. He was only the third person to achieve this double-nomination after Charlie Chaplin ("The Great Dictator" in 1940) and Orson Welles ("Citizen Kane" in 1942). Of all three, only Welles won an Oscar and only for writing.
6. Dutch: "If it bleeds, we can kill it."

Answer: Predator

Arnold Schwarzenegger had top billing in this flick. He stars as Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer, a soldier leading a rescue mission into the jungles of Central America. Slowly, but inexorably, his team is picked off by something unknown. No one can work out what they're up against and hope dwindles as the soldiers are killed. But when Dutch is told he has wounded their hunter he realises that it can be killed.

Schwarzenegger is best known, nowadays, as the "Governator" of California, having been elected to the post in 2003 and re-elected in 2006.

This movie also features another future-Gov, Jesse Ventura, who was elected Governor of Minnesota in 1998 and served a single gubernatorial term without seeking re-election.

Better still, the movie also features an actor named Sonny Landham who made an unsuccessful bid as the Republican candidate for the governorship of Kentucky in 2003. It is reported that the film's insurers made the studio hire body guards to be with Landham all the time. This was not for his protection, but rather to protect everyone else as Landham was known for getting into fights.
7. Rambo: "I could have killed 'em all. I could kill you. In town you're the law; out here it's me. Don't push it. Don't push it or I'll give you a war you won't believe. Let it go. Let it go."

Answer: Rambo: First Blood

Sylvester Stallone again, and this time, it's personal! Stallone is John Rambo, a Vietnam veteran who is drifitng through the small towns of the American west coast. He tangles with the local sheriff and ends up being run out of town. That is, until he kills a cop and then things go from bad to worse.

Rambo says this line to Brian Dennehy who plays Sheriff Will Teasle. The police have already tangled with Rambo and come off the worse for it. Rambo just wants to be left alone now, but it's too late as far as the Sheriff is concerned.

This movie is actually based on "First Blood" a novel by David Morrell written in 1972. In true Hollywood fashion, however, there are some significant changes in the movie. But I won't spoil it for you!
8. Murtaugh: "I got 8 days to my retirement, and I will NOT make a stupid mistake." Riggs: "Look, there is no bomb in that building. I will bet vital parts of my anatomy on the fact. Trust me, okay? Trust me." Murtaugh: "That's usually my first mistake."

Answer: Lethal Weapon 3

Mel Gibson and Danny Glover reprise their roles as, respectively, Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh, two cops who have worked together for years. This time they're after a cop-gone-bad who has stolen a cache of weapons from the police force, including cop-killer armour-piercing ammunition.

The film opens with Riggs and Murtaugh deciding whether to enter a building to look for a bomb or wait for the bomb squad. Of course, it wouldn't be an action movie if they did the sensible thing so they enter the building. This exchange is how Riggs convinces the more sensible Murtaugh that they can handle the situation.

Thanks to this movie, the retiring cop whose life is jeopardised solely by his imminent retirement has become something of a cliche in the cop-buddy movie genre. It has been parodied quite extensively, but probably most notably in the movie "The Last Action Hero" starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and the McBain sequences in "The Simpsons".
9. Elwood: "We're on a mission from God."

Answer: The Blues Brothers

This is a truly fabulous movie which once held the world record for the number of cars crashed in a movie. The late John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd are Jake and Elwood Blues. They go on a madcap adventure through Illinois playing music and raising money to save the orphanage in which they were raised.

Elwood says this line five times during the movie, to a variety of people, whenever he and Jake are explaining what they are doing and why.

The movie has appearances from a lot of big-name musical stars including Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, James Brown and Cab Calloway.
10. Capt. Stuart Kinder: "Doesn't give me anything. But along with these other results, it gives YOU just about the most twisted, anti-social bunch of psychopathic deformities I have ever run into. And the worst, the most dangerous of the bunch is Maggott. You've got one religious maniac, one malignant dwarf, two near-idiots... and the rest I don't even wanna think about."

Answer: The Dirty Dozen

This film, the highest grossing of 1967, featured some of the roughest, toughest men going around: Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson and Telly Savalas. Marvin had, in fact, served in the US Marines is World War II, while Bronson and Savalas served in the US Army.

This movie tells the story of a cut-throat band of vaguely mutinous soldiers recruited from army gaols to form an elite unit of 12 men tasked with parachuting into Nazi-occupied France to destroy a chateau full of Nazi officers. Every fightin' man's dream. In fact, legends of the existence of such units have been around for years but none has ever been substantiated.

Capt. Kinder, an army psychiatrist, has just finished evaluating the troops. Lee Marvin, as their leader, Major John Reisman, asks him what the results give him and this is the head-shrinker's response.
