I absolutely refuse to believe that anyone else said "Eyes the size of millwheels" for question 3.
They may have said "big eyes", or some such response, and therefore failing to draw upon the literary reference I thought lent such mystique to my answer, but it is not the same thing, damn it!
Fix! Fix! How could you deny me my rightful 10 points Skanky!

MiB?

The only (deliberate) quote was the "ugly planet, a bug planet" one which was featured in Starship Troopers.

I think I should get an award for consistently scoring near bottom.

Or stop trying to be original. Whichever comes 1st.

No, in the movie.
And the movie is good if you expect it to be nothing like the book. And like movies that are so bad they are good. View it as a parody.
