I wondered if people might find it amusing to spot famous movie quotes that have been sufficiently altered to stop people googling them, but still carry the original meaning?

Something like this

"It's the one that says big bad motherfker" which googling instantly reveals (for those that need it) the fact that it comes from Pulp Fiction. But if we change it to "it's the one that says big naughty motherfker" then Google is stumped (thus preventing people cheating)

So, I'll start with a really easy one. First to get it gets to do the next one.


"I hope he likes pasta, they serve it four times a day in the italian prisons"

The Italian Job, Mr Bridger/Noel Coward.

I don't get the game though.
Spot the "mis-quote"? Even though I knew it was Coward in the Italian Job, I put the pasta version in to Google, and it still gave me the answer.
ETA: But anyway, here yer go...
"We shall st off their Pashific coasht and lishen to their rock and roll"

"and lay off their largest city, and listen to their rock and roll"

Hunt for Red October

I got it by googling "and listen to their rock and roll"

We need to make this harder.

How about

"make him a proposal that he cannot decline"

In the absence of another question, how about:

Something is iniquitous in the realm of the southernmost nordic country and the king's son is depositing the refuse outside.

Probably still too easy.

... and Hamlet is taking out the trash.

From the same movie as:

I have just stopped all biological function in this member of the species, and I did it with forethought and deliberation.
