Movie Quotes from the 21st Century Quiz

Answer: The Departed

Frank Costello (played by Jack Nicholson) says this at the beginning of the movie to a young Colin Sullivan, when he wants him to train as a cop. Costello cleverly has Sullivan (Matt Damon) work for the Massachusetts State Police and has him sneak information to the mafia. Costello is the leader of the Irish mafia. Billy Costigan(Leonardo DiCaprio) is a man who wants to join the police but is unable to, because of his criminal family background.

He is instead chosen to work undercover in Costello's mafia, to send information back to the State Police. The movie follows the transfer of information and the dangers both Sullivan and Costigan face while spying for the other side.

It is directed by renowned director Martin Scorsese and also stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Martin Sheen and Mark Wahlberg.

Answer: Wedding Crashers

Jeremy Grey (played by Vince Vaughn) says this to John Beckwith (played by Owen Wilson). The two play best friends who crash weddings for free food and one-night stands with women. The movie also stars Rachel McAdams and Christopher Walkens.

Answer: You, Me and Dupree

Carl Peterson (Matt Dillon) says this to his wife, Molly Peterson (Kate Hudson), one night in bed after getting married. Their newlywed life is crashed suddenly by the arrival of an unemployed, homeless friend Randy Dupree (Owen Wilson) who was the best man at their wedding.

He was fired because he took time off work to attend their wedding. The arrival of Dupree creates problems between the newlyweds, as he takes their offer of a few days and extends it to a much, much longer period of time. Instead of looking for a job as he promised, he begins playing with the children of the street and hosting parties at the couple's house.

This mayhem is only increased further by the antics of Molly's father, Mr. Thomson (Michael Douglas), also Carl's boss, who constantly insists that Carl change his last name to Thomson rather than have Molly change hers to Peterson.

Answer: X-Men: The Last Stand
