"You Shall Not Pass!" Trivia Quiz

Answer: "You played it for her, you can play it for me... If she can stand it, I can. Play it!"

Amazingly, even though the quote isn't anywhere close to "Play it again, Sam," people persist in saying it incorrectly! And they also insist that it was Bogart's character that said it! Actually, Bergman's character came closest to actually saying it that 'wrong' way when she said simply, "Play it, Sam."

Answer: True

Of course, it's besides the point that the originally filmed quotation was actually "Obi-Wan killed your father." James Earl Jones' voice overdubbed all the movies, replacing the voice of David Prowse, the actor who actually acted the role.

Answer: He said all of these

It's true! Kirk never actually said, "Beam me up, Scotty." The phrase became popularized when it was used on bumper stickers, saying, "Beam me up Scotty. There's no intelligent life down here."

Kirk DID use each of the other phrases at one point or another. He used "Scotty, beam us up" in the episodes "The Gamesters of Triskelion" and "The Savage Curtain," and he uttered "Scotty, beam me up" in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home." "Beam us up, Scotty" was only heard in the short-lived animated series episodes "The Lorelei Signal" and "The Infinite Vulcan".

Answer: Joe Friday

Another variation spoken by Joe Friday was, "All we know are the facts, ma'am." In reality, it was a spoof of "Dragnet" in the form of a record by satirist Stan Freberg in 1953 entitled "St. George and the Dragonet" that truncated the phrase to "Just the facts, ma'am." Somehow, popular (if misguided) opinion has the phrase being uttered on "Dragnet" itself.

Hey, no one ever said that large groups of people are highly intelligent.

Answer: "...ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?"

Clint Eastwood's line has also been reduced in spoof homages over the years. Jim Carrey used it in "The Mask", but he was actually pretty accurate, only changing the word 'punk' to 'punks.' Rowan Atkinson used it in his 1997 self-titled film, "Bean" exactly as it never was: "Do you feel luck, punk?" It has also shown up in various other situational comedies in different variations ("Scary Movie 2", "The Office", "The Nanny", "Transformers", and the list goes on).

Answer: "my dear"

And then there's the original novel itself, wherein author Margaret Mitchell has Rhett Butler simply saying, "My dear, I don't give a damn." The word 'frankly' isn't used at all! So, everybody gets it wrong, including the ones who quote it from the movie (in)correctly!

Answer: "Ah, Houston, we've had a problem."

Of course, we all know that Hollywood strives to its utmost to be true to every historical detail in its movies. We would NEVER expect them to portray history as anything but what ACTUALLY happened.

Yeah, I couldn't say that without laughing either. At least Ron Howard and crew did a good job in having the action truly take place in zero gravity. Yes, they made those poor actors go up and down in a plane, filming the scenes in those snippets when positive Gs turned to negative Gs. It took them 612 parabolic flights at 25 seconds each to get enough film for the movie's zero-gravity scenes.

Answer: "Mmm, that dirty, double-crossin' rat!"

Never let it be said that Cagney never got his chance to actually say the misquoted catchphrase, though. In his AFI Lifetime Achievement Award acceptance speech at a 1974 ceremony Cagney quipped, "Oh, Frankie, I never said 'Mmm, you dirty rat!' What I actually said was 'Judy, Judy, Judy!'"

Of course, that was a reference to another famously misquoted phrase (not appearing in this quiz) attributed to Cary Grant.

Answer: Ed Wood

In Tim Burton's "Ed Wood," the character of Dr. Tom Mason (played by Ned Bellamy) practices his impersonation of Lugosi (played by Walter Landau), using the famously UNsaid quotation, "I want to suck your blood."

As far as I can tell, the closest thing Lugosi said in the 1931 "Dracula" that referenced drinking was when he offered Renfield a glass of wine to drink, and when Renfield asked, "Aren't you drinking?", Dracula responded, "I never drink...wi-i-i-ne."

Answer: "Let's get the hell out of here!" ("The City on the Edge of Forever")

DeForest Kelley used the non-cussing "I'm a doctor, not a..." phrase eleven times while he played the role, and the various other doctors from the other "Star Trek" series have each had their own opportunities to continue the tradition. Kelley even famously parodied himself in an advertisement for a "Trivial Pursuit" commercial when he stated, "How should I know? I'm an actor, not a doctor!"
