What movies do you have memorized? Bonus points for sharing your favorite quote.

I'd have to say...

Bring It On: "You are cheerleaders. Cheerleaders are dancers who have gone retarded."

The Mummy (none of that Returns or Scorpion crap!): "Relax, I'm the map. It's all up here.", "I! Am a librarian."

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Day: "Can Princess Sophia come out and play?"

Bring It On

The Mummy (Widescreen Collector's Edition)

Okay - I'm sure I've ranted on here before about how much the 2nd Mummy movie sucked monkey butt - but I'm sad to report they're actually making a 3rd one.

I watched the trailer here, and I was shocked to see that Rachel Weisz wasn't in it. I love her, I loved her character and how she interacted with Brendan Fraser's character. So when I saw in the preview Brendan Fraser kissing this other woman I was angry! I went onto IMDB and found out the synopsis and now I know I'll never see it.

Why?! Because they didn't just kill off Rachel Weisz's character - oh no - they did the unthinkable which was replace her with another actress!!! YOU CAN'T DO THAT!

Its official. The Mummy ended after The Mummy. There was never a return, never a Dragon Emperor - NEVER!!!

Synopsis for
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

Warning! This synopsis contains spoilers

The blockbuster global "Mummy" franchise takes a spellbinding turn as the action shifts to Asia for the next chapter in the adventure series, "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor." Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O'Connell to combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.

What's your "go-to" movie? The one you watch when you need to just get away from it all?

I used to have a few, but when my brother died - and then a year later my sister ended a very important relationship - we sucked them dry of any repeat enjoyment. However! I still think of those movies fondly and put them on in the hopes of watching them but I always get distracted.
