*As a little side note: To all of you who are observant, I changed the name of my blog from "Miss Informed" to "Make it Snappy!" so it would be a little more fitting of my personality. I'm impatient as hell. While "Miss Informed" was quite quirky, "Make it Snappy!" just fits better. So don't worry; it's still me in here!

Snarkiness Ensues..

Okay, because I am a sucker for instant gratification and let's face it, I have no patience to sit and let this thing hash out any longer, I'm going to give you the last two answers. First of all, let me say that you are all (all 3 of you!) are darn good guessers. Maggie, we DO have the same movie tastes! And if you were in my zip code honey, I'd invite you over for movie night complete with booze and popcorn. Anyway, here you go:



1. Cocktail.. I love this movie! When I first saw it I thought, "Now why can't I twirl vodka bottles like that?!"

2. Talledaga Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.. I am such a sucker for Will Ferrell and his antics.

3. The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.. So touching and yet made me wish I lived in Louisana, just simply for the culture.

4. Blow.. Derek Forreal? Are you Pee Wee Herman for real?

5. Pure Country.. Love me some George Strait! And the song! Oh! The Song!

6. Dirty Dancing.. One of Hubbs favorite movies. Because Nobody puts Baby in a corner!

7. The Devil Wears Prada.. How I love New York and it's fashionistas.

8. The Notebook.. Seriously? Tears. Everytime.

9. Knocked Up.. Gives me a glimpse into what my pregnancy will be like. Minus the weed.

10. My Best Friend's Wedding.. Oh, my first "OMG I love this movie!" movie. The first of many sappy romances I would learn to appreciate.

Bonus Round: The Girl Next Door.. Because the juice WAS worth the squeeze.



Now, if Hateful Bitch, Lindz, and Flutterbyshutter will send their mailing addresses to SnappyblogsATgmailDOTcom, I'll send you a nice little surprise for playing along! I mean, somebody's gotta bribe these people to keep coming back, right?

Monday Movie Meme

Because I just don't listen unless I write things down, and because I can't find the "real" directions to this cool little thing, I'm just gonna wing it. After making a couple of guesses on a few of my favorite blogs, I'm attempting to do my own. So, don't cheat by going to that real popular movie look-up website (IDB? IMD?, yeah, that one) or Google, or any other "cheat" site. Make an educated guess. You know, like a hypothesis. While you all are guessing, I'm gonna try my damnedest to figure out how to do that cool little strike-through font that doesn't seem to work for me, and the hyperlink thingy that I also can't seem to get working on here, but works plenty fine on my other web-ventures. So, without further ado..

1. "Coughlin's law: never tell tales about a woman. No matter how far away she is, she'll always hear you. " Cocktail (I love all the early Tom Cruise movies! The new ones? Not so much)

2. I'm all jacked up on Mt. Dew! I'll come at you like a spider-monkey! " Talledaga Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

3. "There's not a goddamn breeze in the entire state of Louisiana." The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

4. "The official toxicity limit for humans is between one and one and half grams of cocaine depending on body weight. I was averaging five grams a day, maybe more. I snorted ten grams in ten minutes once. I guess I had a high tolerance." Blow

5. "Me? I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of what I saw, I'm scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you. " Dirty Dancing

6. "Well, sometimes the tree grows too fast and the roots don't develop. And sometimes you have to chop off the top of that tree to let the roots catch up. "

7. "A million girls would kill for this job. " The Devil Wears Prada

8. "The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given me. That's what I hope to give to you forever."

9. "Well. I think a stork, he umm, he drops it down and then, and then, a hole goes in your body and there's blood everywhere, coming out of your head and then you push your belly button and then your butt falls off and then you hold your butt and you have to dig and you find the little baby." Knocked Up

10. "He's got you on a pedestal and me in his arms." My Best Friend's Wedding

Bonus Round: "Because in your heart you know, that the juice is worth the squeeze. That's what moral fiber's all about." The Girl Next Door (Such a COOOL movie!)

Have fun guessing!

**Edited to Add.. So far, Hateful Bitch and Lindz are kicking your butts!!
***Edited to Add. Again... Come ON!! I know there are some saps out there just like me, for # 8!! And, did anyone notice that I completely deleted number 6 while trying to figure out that strike-through thingy??
