I tried ChatGPT in a non-software related realm. It gave me a rather confusing answer, so I asked a further question for clarification. That seemed to contradict the first answer, which I challenged indirectly. ChatGPT immediately apologised: "I apologize for the mistake in my previous response." and gave a fuller, and correct, response to my questions.
Which is great (and counterbalances your apology to it in your example above!) but does rather imply that it gives the first answer it comes up with, without further checking against its other "knowledge". I was just curious to test it out, but had it done that in - say - a medical diagnosis, I'd potentially be in big trouble.

It's very chatty. I think it's psycho-analyzing to come up with the best "liked" answer. Then files it for future reference. If it asked you for your name, it could even speak the sweetest sound in the world.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

So next week is a go, drunk or not, and you don't have to set the following days if you win. Except for Randor of course. He does.

... So what is the most quotable movie? And the best (KSS) quote?
The Blues Brothers is damn good, but for me it's Pulp Fiction.
Most of the good ones are decidedly not KSS but "Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?" is just classic. As is nearly the whole "dead body in the car in my garage" scene.

I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part!
Plus anything from Monty Python of course!

Oh so many ..
Airplane (aka Flying High) my most quoted film outside of Monty Python movies
- I am serious… and don’t call me Shirley.
- A hospital? What is it? It’s a big building with patients, but that’s not important right now.
- Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking ... quit smoking ... quit sniffing glue.
Ok I'm going to stop now or I'll quote the whole movie.
Others (not "most quotable", but some favourites):
Last Boy Scout
- Joe Hallenbeck: I told you, if you ever touch me again, I'll kill you.
Can't quote the others here
Kelly's Heros
- Oddball: Always with the negative waves Moriarty, always with the negative waves.

The original Ghostbusters...
"Back off, man. I'm a scientist!"
"That's a big Twinkie"
"There is no Dana, only Zuul."
"Human sacrifice. Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria!"
"Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back."
"I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, bad?"
...and many, many more.

Most Quotable Movie: The Princess Bride 
Oh, for Christmas movies, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (Jim Carrey)
"Oh, that's rich." Grinch after prank-calling people.
"That worked out nicely." As cindy lou who falls into package stamper
"Wrong-Oh!" when cindy lou who says Grinch did something nice.
"The gift of a Christmas shave."
"Pucker up, Who-ville...& kiss it!"
"Holiday whobitty- whabitty?"
Mayor when the town & decorations have been destroyed by Grinch: "Invite the Grinch, destroy Christmas!! Invite the Grinch, destroy Christmas!!"
"Cheer up dude, it's Christmas."
“Give me that! Don’t you know you’re not supposed to take things that don’t belong to you? What’s the matter with you? You some kind of wild animal?”
outgoing message on answering machine: "If you utter so much as one syllable, I'LL HUNT YOU DOWN AND GUT YOU LIKE A FISH! If you'd like to fax me, press the star key."
Grinch checks schedule: “4:00, wallow in self-pity. 4:30, stare into the abyss. 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one. 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me. I can't cancel that again. 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing. I'm booked. Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9, I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling and slip slowly into madness."
“Now you listen to me, young lady! Even if we're horribly mangled, there'll be no sad faces on Christmas.”

To me, quotes fall in two main groups. One is the 'reminders', those depending on knowing the context of the movie. Most of those will die as soon as the the movie is out of circulation.
Very few movie quotes survives the death of the movie, in the sense: makes sense to anyone who has not seen the movie. So, the majority of the quotes presented here make little or no sense to those who have not seen those movies.

Smash Stereo - Legendary II[^]
Just some guys I found on Spotify.
They started in 2021 and they're from Italy: "Emanuele, Omar, Alessandro and Gabriele are music producers and content creators and Federico deals with mixing and mastering."
Other than that I can't really find anything about them.
They make an industrial techno sound that I can really enjoy, whether at work, on the road, or in the shower.
Short and SOTW!
The next SOTW will be on January 13th at the earliest as I'll be having my Christmas break

I don't know about this one Sander - I kept waiting to get past the introductory measures and into the tune -- never found it...
In any case thanks as always for sharing. Enjoy your holiday.

Yeah, I get what you're saying.
There's no big climax or anything.
Still awesome though

A bit of a pity that it had the "Legendary II" text, it kind of ruined the video for me. I didn't mind the music though, which is very much outside of what I usually listen to.
I've been meaning to share a video with for ages. You know me, I never miss an opportunity to promate Aussie rock.
The Angels were a staple listening when I was younger, 40 years younger. I never got to see The Angels when they were in their heyday, but I did see them a few years back. Unfortunately, Doc Neeson was not with the band and while they were good, they were not great.
Live (back in the day) Angels - Mr Damage (live version)[^]
But if you prefer the studio album The Angels - Mr. Damage (Original Studio Version) - YouTube[^].
Anyway, thanks for sharing the music, have a great xmas and hear you next year

I rarely watch video's, so I didn't even notice.

A bit too classic for my tastes, but I like their energy.
Judging from their style, they were most active in the 80's

This Trampsta is super funny to watch, indeed  ...
I am sure it will pop up in my head every now and then.
Trampsta seems to produce only amazing stuff  ,
as we had 1-2 other crazy tracks from him on SOTW in August I think ...

That one was based off of a tv program of the same name, I believe.

Lazy Town was a surreal TV show. Nothing like it. Ended too soon.

Watched it with my older Grandkids when they were younger.
I liked it. They like it.
It was bit exaggerated but that was part of the appeal.
Message was always a good one.

Hadn't seen or heard it before, nice one 
I know the characters from memes, but I'm pretty sure they're not from this video.
It's apparently from an Icelandic children's show LazyTown.
That girl reminds me of Nathalie Portman in Leon.
David O'Neil wrote: The xx - On Hold (Jamie xx Remix) - another song from the playlist last week that is catchy.
Another good one

Western musician makes relaxing video (4, 6)
[Update: this does continue the festive theme. And it possibly doesn't follow cryptic rules as closely as some would like. Maybe Western musician is maker of relaxing video would be a more precise clue. In my defence I had nothing lined up, this one almost spur of the moment. But I think you'll like it]
[Update2:
WRAP ARTIST
Western W
