Yesterday's movie meme - Gacked from

petzipellepingo

1. Pick 15 of your favourite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions. Totally cheating, you dirty cheaters.

If you like you can go back to yesterday's post and read the questions before looking at the anwsers....
Here are the anwers:

( 15 movies I love )

Well, were these really too difficult?

( 15 movies I love )

[..] This is where I ommitted a few names, because they would have made it too easy.

*Fanfiction*
Do you read or write fanfiction?	Yes
When did you first start reading/writing fanfiction?	When "Intervention" aired. I believe my first fanfic was a post-Intervention fic by Miranda.
What was your first fandom?	BtVS
First ship?	Spike/Buffy
What website do you use most?	LEO (German/English dictionary I use at work)
What do you think of Fanfiction.net?	It's a shame they got rid of the smut. I used to like the archive, there were always good stories among the crap
What fandoms have you written in?	Jossverse, Supernatural (drabbles), CSI (unfinished), Harry Potter, Veronica Mars, Smallville
Pairings?	Spike/Buffy, Spike/Xander, Spike/Ethan, Spike/Xander/Anya, Spike/Anya, Giles/Ethan, Spike/Tara, Spike/Wesley, Spike/Angel, Ethan/Lindesey (one of my faves), Spike/Andrew, Jayne/River, Mal/Inara, and lots of friendship pairings - also, unpublished: Spike/Riley, Xander/Giles, Spike/Lindsey, Faith/Cordy
Any fandoms you would like to write in?	Doctor Who - but I don't have the background knowledge
Do reviews affect how you write in any way?	They affect IF I write more than HOW I write. If readers clamour for a fic I find it easier to push distractions away and focus on writing.
Do you use a beta?	I used to (Marcee, LadyCat and Sangpassionne were fabulous betas), but nowadays I don't have an Instant Messenger anymore, so I kinda lost touch...
What ratings do you read/write?	Any
What warnings have you used on your fiction/read?	Oh, I have written a very nasty non-con fic, and I even tried my hand at daddy kink, but most of my porn is harmless fun, threesomes, voyeurism and such
Do you have any squicks?	incest, under age sex (which in my country means und the age of 16)
Do you Role-play online? If so, what?	Nope. Only pen and paper. Fantasy and Call of Cthulhu
Have you ever stolen something from another person's work?	No, but someone once thought I had: It was a case of bright minds thinking alike - Xander and Spike share a few beers thinking about the upcoming showdown and mortality. There were similarities, yes, but we both wrote our stories without knowledge of the other's work.
Favorite fandom to write/read?	Jossverse
Favorite pairing?	Spike/Xander and Spike/Ethan
Favorite writer/writers?	Anna S, Kalima, Wiseacress, Mikelesq (esp. his "Teaser Pony") - there are others, but I tend to forget who wrote what cringes
How long should a chapter be?	As long as it needs to be
Do you write/read drabbles?	yes/yes
Any fandoms you avoid?	Supernatural
Pairings you avoid?	Dean/Sam
Warnings you avoid?	daddy kink, character death
Do the number of reviews tell how good a story is?	No, not really. One of my best stories received very little feedback; also, I have seen stories that had tons of feedback but that I didn't like. shrug
What do you think of Mary Sues?	I hate them - except for Nicolette, of course ("Nicolette Says Jump" - by Kalima)
Have you ever flamed someone?	No, but sometimes my criticism sounds a bit harsh (especially in my early fandom years)
Have you ever been flamed?	Yes
That's it, aren't you glad?	Yup
CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

( Questions )

There were more questions to the meme, but I had a long day, plus the weather is mind-numbingly humid. Bedtime for me. Maybe I'll answer the other questions tomorrow.

I got tagged by

marcee12 so here goes:

Write a jounal entry with six random facts about yourself. Then, pick six of your friends list and tag them - no tag backs. These rules should be included in your entry.

1. For a while, English was my worst subject at school.

2. I like winning. When we play a boardgame like Settlers of Catan and the rules give me an opportunity to harm one of my opponents by capturing one of his pieces or by stealing a card or whatever, I always pick Mr. E. I know he's dangerous competition.

3. I once rode my bike against a parked car - I was reading while driving.

4. I cry during movies and at funerals, but I can't cry out of unhappiness, even though I often feel like it.

5. I like rollercoasters.

6. I should be working on my translation, instead of doing memes or reading LJ. I have at least 5 pages to do every night until Wednesday. *sigh*

I'm not sure if people will notice if I tag them. My LJ is a bit quiet these days. Oh well, I'll tag:

You post a topic, list, category, whatever, in my comments section. (examples: "5 Sexiest Things About Ron Weasley" or "Top 5 things to drink"). Then, in a separate post, I'll post the answers to all your Top 5 ideas, according to me. Then you post this offer in your own journal.
