Seriously, I posted that quote with one of my prop find posts. Even linked a vid of that dialogue. But, great minds think alike.

Different countries different spelling :haha
But no that's not the movie
Hate to break it to you but the original quote is indeed from Willy Wonka. That's where Super Troopers got it.
At 22sec. of this clip:
Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory - YouTube
Haha yeah but it wasn't the movie I was thinking of
But in good spirit I'll pass and it's all yours

I think we've come to a point where perhaps a rule clarification is needed. I would suggest that if you name a movie that the quote is in it counts whether it's the intended movie or not (provided you can prove it's a quote from the film you say it is).
Should help us move through vague quotes.
What say you guys?

I felt the Snozzberries quote was very obviously from Wonka... it's obvious Super Troopers was using it as a quote/homage. If that poster didn't realize that, he should've done a little research.
So, I second Mr. Blend's clarification.
There was no problem! We just needed clarification, not your fault.
:thumbsupIn the case of Wonka v. Troopers if I had posted the quote and someone guessed Super Troopers under these rules it would be good. :thumbsup
There are many quotes shared by multiple films. You just pointed out that we needed a clarification.
As far as the game goes your addition to the quote means it's clearly LOTR... But which film? :love
Return of the King?

I think the spirit of the game is to have a quote that's particular to a movie... we could could put any number of words together, ie "oh my god" and have it belong to many movies...
My feeling is being indirect with small phrases like "my darling" is just too short and too vague and too indistinguishable and while technically may be a movie quote, it's a quote that belongs to many movies. Is the next clue going to use the quote "the"?
Let's not be coy, let's play in the spirit of the game.
