Clue is the best. My siblings and I have been living off quotes from that for years. Just now, in fact, I randomly quoted the "1 + 1 + 2 + 1" line to my sister, and she followed up with Miss Scarlet's response without missing a beat. There's just so much to love about Clue. Let's see Battleship be that good!
By the way, Black Swan is AMAZING, though I will save most of my gushing for my post next week. But, yes, if you have the chance to see it, then do so.
