The Slightly More Evil Movie Meme

[misscam]

Basically, same deal as before. Guess which movie the quote is from (and who said it), and I'll cross it off the list as they're guessed. However, I have translated them all into Norwegian to make it more difficult. When they're guessed, I shall also post the correct English version and be very impressed.

Scandinavians not allowed to participate. That's just too easy. Stand on the sidelines and snigger instead.

Python reference

What? I can't read that! AGHHHHHHHHH!
And here I thought Norwegian was Indo-European. That might as well be Finno-Umeric, though I doubt you'd ever actually post anything in Finnish...
I ought to return the favor with some Russian!quotes, but most people's computers aren't set up to handle KOI8-R, and transliteration is a thing of evil straight from Sauron himself.

Oh, Norwegian is very much Indo-European. Germanic language.

At least this is a *real* challenge.

Dum er som dum gjør -- "Stupid is as stupid does" from Forrest Gump?

*prepares to be informed of being horribly wrong* (I suck at these things, even in English)

[sekhmets-temple.livejournal.com]

OMG! You really are evil!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

And we have tonight's first winner!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Yeee-esss.

But at least this one will require skill and thinking *and* google.

[andy-longwood.livejournal.com]

Is the last one from Phantom of the Opera?

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

2 is from Shrek. Donkey commenting on the beauties of the swamp. Does it count that I shamelessly searched Google for an online translator that could go Norwegian to English, instead of the other way around. Not perfect(rather crappy in fact), but the "That is a nice boulder" kinda gave it away...

[andy-longwood.livejournal.com]

*reads further* And did Christine say it, and does it read "Angel of Music, you decieved me. I gave you my mind blindly!"?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

It be the singing Phantom, yes.

[fiendery.livejournal.com]

Dang! Beat me to it, you did!

[sinneahtes.livejournal.com]

Woo-hoo!

Jeg ser døde mennesker. -- "I see dead people" from Sixth Sense?

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

And is 4 the French taunts from Monty Python and the Holy Grail?
"No, now go away or I will taunt you a second time."

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*points up* Yep. Though I admit I haven't seen the movie and just nicked it off IMDB.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ahyep. One of the easier ones ;)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah. It counts. The point is to find a translator and then attempt to make sense of it.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Must have the Python, after all.

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

Is 8 Mr. Darcy from Pride and Predjudice? "She is pretty enough, I suppose, but not handsome enough to tempt me."

[misscam.livejournal.com]

My, you're quick. Leave some for the poor others, too.

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

Dang, and I think I just figured out number nine too! It isn't a very good online translator, but it's much easier when things are in English syntax, even if bits and pieces are still in Norwegian.

Note: Mind you, I have little idea of how to pronounce any of it. Especially the letters with the little circles on top or the ones with slashes through them.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

:P æ ø & å, Norway's three extra pretty letters. Envy us.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Well, give it a few moments and see if anyone else figures it out, if not, hit me with it.

Re: Python reference

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

Oh I know that it is Indo-European. Snatches of it even make sense, now that I know what it should say (more sense than the translator, sometimes). But at first glance, it looks completely unrelated to my own little germanic language. Something about the weird consonant clusters, and the extra vowel-y bits...
