Or I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang. Or Sullivan's Travels.

On Number 4, it's either Project X, or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

On Number 5, I'll guess ... Baby Boom?

Here are some hints:

# 4 is from a Paul Newman movie

# 5 is from a relatively obscure but very good 1999 comedy.

Number 1 is from "It Came From Outer Space" with Richard Carlson. The quote is from a scene early in the movie when the telephone linemen Frank and George were on their beat in the desert, and some other guy — the sheriff or a deputy, maybe? — drove by and asked them the question. Small talk. George was the professor from "Gilligan's Island" a few years before that series.

The other two, I have no idea.

"It Came From Outer Space" was the first Universal International 3D movie.

(A made-for-TV sequel, "It Came From Outer Space II" came out in 1996 but was not as good as the original)

One of those lines that sticks with you. The way the guy says it is just so ridiculous.

The line is about halfway though this clip.
