Movie: Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium

Postby Radiance » Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:24 am

This is technically a kid's movie, but MAN, did it rock my world! So much so, in fact, that I watched it 4 times in one week and copied 2 pages worth of quotes from the dialogue so that I could remember key elements. I think my favorite (for today, anyway) is:

"37 seconds - now we wait." "No. We breathe, we pulse, we regenerate. Our hearts beat, our minds create, our souls ingest. 37 seconds, well used, is a lifetime."


Anyone else seen it, or have an opinion?

So, I watched, and I have to say thank you for your recc. I loved that movie!

If you have two pages worth of quotes, do you think you could share? There were so many brilliant ideas in there that were not only sweet and funny but make sense on a much deeper intuitive level as well. Awesome.

So many of the memorable things in that movie can't be reduced to words. The whole writing scene between Henry and Eric, the look on Mahoney's face when she leaves the shop after saying goodbye, the emotion in Mahoney's First (song)... Really can't explain how deeply I loved this movie. :D

All stories, even the ones we love, must eventually come to an end. And when they do, it's only an opportunity for another story to begin.

Seriously - that applies to, like, everything I can think of.

I really love that movie. I'm close to getting my bedroom to look like his hospital room.

"I just needed some space." *lights out to see all the stars*

I think that is one of my favorite part of the movie.

I really like this movie! It really touched my heart too, and I actually cried in it. I had bought the movie a long time ago, but I think a friend of mine still has it, as we accidentally left it in her DVD player when we were at the dorms. I'm thinking about buying another copy. :lol:

Ever since I saw this movie I have the strangest urges to play the piano too(even though I still haven't learned yet), she was so very inspiring. :D
