Adding Memorable Quotes to a Film

I can't figure out how to add a quote. I read the help screen but it talks about formatting and what's appropriate. When I follow the prompts, I answer questions about which character, how many lines, how many people, etc. But I never see a space to type in the actual quote. I looked at the process three times. What am I missing?

You're not the first to ask, so I guess the interface could be simpler. Every time you make a selection in the form you have to click the button at the bottom of the page to continue. The spaces to enter the text should then appear.

Thanks. And yes, rather than "'Re-check these updates" an appropriate button would simply be "Next."

For most of the time since the Web interface was set up, that button was always Continue but a while ago IMDb switched  to the sequence of Continue, Check these updates, and Re-check these updates.

I personally disliked the change, and suggested that if they felt they need to include the 'check', they should make it Check and continue, but (obviously) they took no notice.

Show them this message and others who have asked the same question. What you can't show them, though, are comments from people who simply gave up and didn't post anything. This is, after all, a fun thing. If it becomes work or is frustrating, people just bail.
