Since no one has confirmed it - yes, #1 is Major League. Specifically Eddie Harris (Chelcie Ross) talking to Pedro Cerrano (Denis Haysbert) about Pedro appealing to voodoo god Jobu for help hitting a curve ball.
Pedro Cerrano: Bats, they are sick. I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid. I ask Jobu to come, take fear from bats. I offer him cigar, rum. He will come.
Eddie Harris: You know you might think about taking Jesus Christ as your savior instead of fooling around with all this stuff.
Roger Dorn: Shit, Harris.
Pedro Cerrano: Jesus, I like him very much, but he no help with curveball.
Eddie Harris: You trying to say Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?

Can't believe you have resorted to completely CHEAT in this whole contest...god, you must have no soul. What happened to playing fair. You are such a loser... hope you can consciously sleep at night, but then again, if your resorting to cheating, you probably do sleep pretty good.

Chill dude. He just posted it so we could have some fun.
The winner of the contest is probably already decided anyway considering you could find all the quotes in about 5 minutes using google or imdb.

2. "Well, sir, there is nothing I’d like more than to restore your faith in Judaism."
This one sounds so familiar to me but I just can't seem to come up with the name of the movie. Now it's driving me crazy. Anyone?

Of course, I hope you realize that everyone else who uses Google to take the quiz is also finding this page and copying these answers, just like me! Thank you all for the help, I am now done!

And of course I welcome all Springfield area residents who have found this thread through Google, copy the answers and browse around the forum in general. Obviously you are interested in movies, else you wouldn't be doing research to find answers to a movie quote contest, DVDTalk is a site I think you will like.
For the regulars, thanks for your help to date, just a few are left. I encourage everybody to enter the contest, a link is at the top of Post #1. The second place prize is four or five DVDs. The grand prize is 24 movie passes good only in Springfield, Illinois, but if you don't know anybody here you can always just put them on Craigslist.

On a sidenote, I saw Idiocracy tonight and recognized the one quote from it. Interesting movie, worth a rental.

1941, or Waiting
For some reason I want to say that #39 is Independence Day, but that's a complete guess. Also, I've tried multiple google searches on these two, even with just a few words, and can't find anything.
And sorry, but the contest is only open to Illinois residents. You can enter of course even if you are from outside Illinois, but will be disqualified if you win (I guess).
