Are you sick and tired of quoted movies during your D&D sessions?

[BlueBlackRed]

Am I the only one out there who can't stand it when players incessantly quote movies during the game?

I swear I think I knew entire bits from Monty Python's: The Holy Grail before I had ever even seen the movie.

All of these movies have been ruined for me by everyone I've played with over my 2 decades of gaming:
- The Holy Grail - "Tis but a flesh-wound"
- The Princess Bride - "Inconceivable!"
- Highlander - just the 1st one - "There can be only one!"
- Space Balls - "Your schwarz is almost as big as mine."
- Army of Darkness - "And this is my boomstick!"
(To all of you needlers - If I've misquoted something...live with it.)

There's probably 50 more that I've repressed.

So am I the only one who glowers when these movies are quoted?

I mostly get sick of hearing monty python lines as I have no interest in the movies anymore. Not when a so-called friend got on my nerves quoting the whole damn movie while it's being played.

 

[DragonLancer]

I get fed up of Star Wars and Monty Python quotes.

 

[DonaldRumsfeldsTofu]

Holy Grail quotes have in fact gotten annoying. Holy Grail itself is an awesome fillm, but horrendously overrated. The Meaning of Life is by far the best Python film.

 

[Dark Jezter]

I agree that Monty Python and the Holy Grail is the most over-quoted movie in history (especially during D&D sessions), but I haven't really had a problem with overuse of movie quotes during sessions with my current D&D group. I guess I lucked out with that one.

 

[iblis]

No problems with the current groups here either.

*Phew*

Because, my gods and -esses and whatevers, if I had heard "There can be only one!" bellowing over the mutual hallucinatory battlefield ONE MORE TIME, there would have been only one. ME! Ahahahahaaa! That's right!



Therapy may be a viable option after all.

 

[Keeper of Secrets]

Oh this drives me nuts. I mean bat-crap insane. Because of some gamers I absolutely HATE The Princess Bride and cringe each time I see that terrible movie on TV. I am starting to hate Grail and so help me God they day they ruin Star Wars for me, blood will flow in the streets.

Then you need to quote more obscure movies and see if others catch it.

We're quite fond of quoting "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" and "The Warriors" during my groups' Vampire sessions.

 

[SpringPlum]

I'm only really bothered by people constantly MIS-quoting movies. If you don't know it, don't say it.
