Was it REALLY a good idea?

A friend of mine recently published a blog entry about bad movies we all know and love, but don't admit to owning... (see "Guilty Pleasures") She started me thinking about all the corny movies I love so much... and from there an idea was born.

I'm sharing the idea with you because you will either think it is funny, and then start using the idea... or think it is funny, and then hope to heck I have a really good shrink. I have a suspicion that someone before me had this idea, and maybe even published the results... If you have the website, please let me know! Okay- Here it is:

Wouldn't it be fun to make a whole story using nothing but well-known (or corny) movie quotes?!

Think about it--

"I'll be back!" she insisted.
"An den?" Their leader didn't seem too worried.
"I'm going to kill them all, sir."
He glanced at her, smirking,"Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a dagm."
"But I know something you don't know." She was getting desperate.
He stood, and turned away. "That's comforting."
She glared at his retreating back, "I'm never going to be good enough for you, am I?"
"Hail to the King, baby."
"Well, THANK YOU, Captain!"

I'll let your imagination take it from there. By the way, I've listed the movies I quoted, in order, below. Just in case you don't want to admit to recognizing any of them.

Terminator
Dude, Where's My Car
Soldier
Gone With The Wind
Scorpion King
Princess Bride
Legally Blonde
Army of Darkness
Down Periscope

A friend of mine read this post, and told me she really didn't feel the story could be complete without a quote from "Dirty Dancing." I'm throwing that challenge open to the masses-- and renting the movie again for ideas. =)
