Sorry, but we only have two boards. You can play the winner though.

Hmmmm, intriguing. I can't seem to write anything lately unless I am challenged to do so. I'll have a 16, with a side of 4 please. Also, B-7 B-7 B-7 B-7! You're lying to  me again! I know it's there! 
Well, you really did hit Moby Dick... and he had swallowed a dinghy piloted by some golem and an old geezer... though now that I think about it, perhaps the name of that whale wasn't Moby Dick after all... but I know it started with an "M".

Sure, that sounds reasonable 
No, let's say a week from today. I can keep on adding on quotes when we run out, so there will be plenty to go around.
I'm compiling the quotes of doom... I mean, fun, right now, and will start sending them out as soon as I can! [face_evil]

BTW, to clarify the rules, do we use all the quotes we picked the numbers for in one story/scene, or do we work each of them into different scenes?

I'll take 1, 5, and 30 to start with. Just so long as I can put all the quotes in one story (o: However, if I've just misread the rules and it's one quote a story, then I'll just take 30

Here are the ones I have got. Enjoy 
15 “For just one night let’s not be Co-workers. Let's be Co-people.” (“Anchorman”)
Anakin and Obi-Wan are flying towards the Invisible hand, the flagship of General Grievous and their job is to safe Palpatine.
Anakin sees his master rocking violently and says “There isn't a droid made that can out fly you, Master, and no other way to get to the Chancellor”
Obi-Wan replies “Look out, four droids inbound. And you know Arfour is my co-worker.”
Anakin says “Yeah, For just one night let’s not be Co-workers. Let's be Co-people.”
“Anakin, never knew you thought about a droid as a human.”
“Oh but Artoo is human to me, he is all metal and wires but deep down inside is something human. And you know master, sorry co-worker, sorry Jedi Master, I have a metal part too. Hey incoming four droid drop fighters.”
"We've got to split them up.”
“Break left, fly through the guns on that tower.”
“Easy for you to say . . . why am I always the bait?”
“Don't worry. I'm coming around behind you.”
“Yeah you and Artoo, two of a kind.”
More fighting follows until Obi-Wan’s fighter is followed by two missiles.
He mutters “Flying is for droids.”
Suddenly his ship starts to plummet toward the surface of the Trade Federation Cruiser. The trailing missiles fly into what looks like debris, and detonate. Five silver balls fly out of the debris and attach themselves to the ship. The balls pop open, revealing small buzzdroids that begin to crawl across the surface like spiders.
"I'm hit! Anakin?”
“I see them . . . Buzz Droids.”
“More co-people? Arfour, be careful. You have one. Hey anti-people vermin buzz off.”
Artoo beeps a mournful song.
“Yes Artoo that was Arfour one of the most dedicated beings I have ever seen.”
“Anakin, it was just a droid. Oh dear. They're shutting down all the controls.”
"Move to the right so I can get a clear shot at them.”
“The mission. Get to the Command Ship. Get the Chancellor! I'm running out of tricks here.”
“Master, remember we are co-people this night, day or whatever.”
FIN
20 “I will be watching you and if I find that you are trying to corrupt my first born child, I will bring you down, baby. I will bring you down to Chinatown.” (“Meet the Parents”)
Padme is watching Vader bringing Luke to Palpatine in ROTJ
“I will be watching you and if I find that you are trying to corrupt my first born child, I will bring you down, baby. I will bring you down to Chinatown.”
“Welcome young Skywalker I have been expecting you.”
‘Yes Luke look at him be defiant, that’s my boy.’
“You no longer need those”
‘Don’t fight that creep Luke. Don’t mess with that cross between Gollum and the Joker.’
“yes Palpy, you were my senator. How could I have been so stupid. I should have fired you.”
“Guards leave us”
“yeah send those red devils away, my boy doesn’t need them.”
“I am looking forward to completing your training. In time you will call me master.”
“Hmm the Joker I will take you to Gotham City. The caped crusader can deal with you. Batman against Sidious that would be great to watch. In that town you cannot use Force lighting Palpy, the Riddler will spot you immediately.”
“You’re gravely mistaken. You won’t convert me as you did my father.”
“Yes Luke spoken like my son. Anakin listen to your son and save him.”
“Oh no my young Jedi. You will find that it is you who are mistaken about a great many things.”
“No more of that crap Palpy, I will take you to Chinatown. Popeye Doyle will make mincemeat of you and”
“Don’t Padme I will save my son. I will fulfil my destiny.”
“Yippee, yes Anakin, go for it and I will see you. But without that armour.”
“I will. Only a little bit of saber fighting and Force lightning.”
FIN
25 “I'm one stomach flu away from reaching my goal weight.” (“The Devil Wears Prada”)
Obi-Wan is one with the Force and visits Yoda and Luke on Dagobah. Two blue ghosts accompany him. Qui-Gon and Siri.
“Hey Yoda is preparing his stew Obi-Wan."
“Yes master, don’t remind me of that.”
“You never liked it and for you stew and green peas were the same.”
“Yeah and some smart guy added floating greasy garbage. And that made it even more unpalatable. Yuck.”
“Come, let’s see how young Luke fares.”
“Hey Luke is eating it. Oh he is thin.”
Luke tasted the stew and thought “I'm one stomach flu away from reaching my goal weight.”
Obi-Wan sensed that and said “You’re right boy. It gave me the greeny beany meackles.”
Qui-Gon said “he doesn’t hear you.”
Obi-Wan said “he will after Yoda teaches him. Hey Yoda senses I am around.”
Yoda said “I cannot teach him the boy has no patience.”
Obi-Wan said “he will learn patience.”
Yoda said “hm much anger in him, like his father.”
Obi-Wan said “was I any different when you taught me?”
Yoda said “you are reckless.”
Obi-Wan said “so was I if you remember.”
Siri chuckled “now he admits that he was a bit reckless in his youth.”
Qui-Gon said “yes he was when he saved me on Bandomeer.”
Yoda said “he is too old, yes too old to begin the training.”
Siri saw Luke and Yoda arguing some more and Luke telling him that he wouldn’t fail and that he was not afraid.
Obi-Wan said “Qui-Gon, when you found Anakin, he was too old to begin his training but he turned out just fine. If only Sidious hadn’t been around. That Sith has had him in his clutches from the beginning and he was able to cloud all our visions.”
Yoda said “stew he likes, unlike you little one.”
Obi-Wan said “wait until you sense his thoughts.”
Yoda sensed and grumped “I'm one stomach flu away from reaching my goal weight. Feed that boy I will. Only stew he gets.”

Okay, here's mine. I was so happy because I actually got a quote that I recognized!
My quote: Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something. ~From the Princess Bride
“Chancellor Valorum seems to think there is hope.”
Palpatine stopped his pacing just long enough to see a flicker of despair and anger fly through Amidala’s eyes. He pitied her and her position. A naïve girl of only fourteen didn’t really deserve to be or belong in Theed palace—much less act as Queen of Naboo.
He gave a soft sigh and shook his head. Adjusting the thick, blue folds of his robe he began to pace once more. “If I may say so your majesty…” the words stuck in his throat. “The chancellor has little real power. He is mired down by baseless accusations of corruption.” He paused then, to look out the window.
“Unlike me…” he muttered very softly to himself—so softly that Amidala only heard a faint whispering, and attributed it to the curtains.
Palpatine turned his cold, blue eyes on the girl. “A manufactured scandal surrounds him. The bureaucrats are in charge now.”
Amidala shifted her weight in the chair very primly, and gave a small sigh. “What options do we have?”
She could have sworn a slight smile passed over the senator’s pale face. “Our best choice would be to push for the election of a stronger Supreme Chancellor. One who will enforce the laws, and give us justice.”
Palpatine’s face looked as though a new idea had just dawned on him. “You could… call for a vote of no confidence in Chancellor Valorum?” He finished in one long breath.
Amidala sighed again, warily eying the man by the window. He seemed a bit eager. “He has been our strongest supporter.” She said with the best impression of incredulity she could muster. She had known this was coming all along. “Is there any other way?”
While Palpatine formulated his reply, Amidala ran a hand over her white face, taking care not to smudge her makeup. “There is so much pain, so much suffering…” She muttered, more to herself than the chancellor.
He looked over anyway with a curious **** of his eyebrow. “Hmmm?”
“I just want it to stop.” She said in a very small, high voice, unlike her queenly self. Palpatine took a step closer. Eirtae and Rabe exchanged glances. Panaka came a bit closer to the Queen.
“I don’t want any more war, any more suffering.” Amidala said, stronger this time. “The killing of innocents, the death of millions—why? Why do they cause such pain?”
Palpatine’s eyes had taken a dull cast. “Life is pain, Highness.” He said softly, as if not aware he was speaking at all. “Anyone who says differently is selling something.”
Amidala looked up, surprised. “What did you say?”
“Excuse me?” Panaka couldn’t help but inject.
“Uh… nothing… nothing at all.” Palpatine smiled. “I was just saying—“
“I see what you’re doing!” Amidala suddenly rose from her chair. She turned to Panaka. “He’s trying to become Chancellor himself!”
Palpatine’s eyes widened. “My lady I—“
“Don’t you play stupid with me!” She exclaimed, coming closer and pointing a finger at the man’s face.
Panaka started forward. “Queen Amidala is it wise to—“
“Why you little conniving beast!” Amidala exclaimed. She yanked away as Panaka laid a hand on her arm. “Get away from me!”
“Milady.” Panaka’s voice was stern. “I think you’re overreacting.”
“Excuse me?” Amidala lifted an eyebrow. “Don’t you think you can sneak off!” She whirled on Palpatine who was slowly starting to walk out of the room.
“I wasn’t sneaking, I was—“
“How can you explain tiptoeing out of this room then?”
At that moment Obi-Wan Kenobi ran into the room, lightsaber in hand. “Milady, thank the Force you’re alright.” He was panting slightly.
Panaka’s hand went immediately to his blaster. “What did you sense, Padawan Kenobi.”
“Malicious intentions from the senator.” He pointed to Palpatine.
Palpatine frowned. “That’s impossible!”
“The Force is my ally.” Obi-Wan calmly stated. “It is never wrong, it is—“
“ ‘It’s never wrong!’” Palpatine mocked in a whiny voice.
“Arrest him.” Amidala demanded.
“Milady, are you sure that is wise?” Panaka asked, even as he commed security.
“I’m Queen.” Amidala said. “I can do whatever I want.”
“This isn’t the last time you’ll hear from me! This isn't fair!” Palpatine shouted as he was handcuffed. “What was Naboo thinking—electing some moody teenager as Queen! Why, if you’re a Queen milady I’m A SITH LORD!” Palpatine screamed as he was dragged out of the door.
“Wait,” Obi-Wan said, eyes widening.
Palpatine blanched. “I mean…”
Amidala shook her head at him. “So I was right, huh?” She laughed. “You are so busted.”

I had #18 and #29...
"Thank you for pressing the self destruct button." (Spaceballs)
"After much deep and profound brain things inside my head, I have decided to thank you for bringing peace to our home. And to make you feel good, I am going to give you this lovely parting gift." (Madagascar)
“…and so, after much deep and profound brain things inside my head,” the woman said as the members of Wraith Squadron stood in front of their transport, waiting for her to finish her speech. “I have decided to thank you for bringing peace to our home. And, to make you feel good, I am going to give you this lovely parting gift.”
So saying, she handed a package to “Face” Loran, who nodded diplomatically, and followed behind his squadron as they filed into the transport. He hadn’t been quite certain of how to reply to that…
~*~*~*~
Face stared at the unwrapped package, not certain what to make of the contents. It was a button. A very big red button with the word “easy” on it. “What is this?”
One of the Wraiths joined him in staring at it. “Why would they give us a big button as a thank you?”
“I don’t know.” Hestitantly, Face pressed the button, and was startled when it spoke: “That was easy.”
His fellow Wraith pressed it again, and it said the same thing again. “Weird little thing.”
When Face pressed it once more, it said something different: “Thank you for pressing the self destruct button.” Face had just enough time to share a perplexed look with his squadron mate before the transport exploded.
The END
(Am now going to go hide under a couch for blowing up Wraith Squadron with the Staples Easy button...)
