[Jiminy]

Well it's Friday and time for a pointless survey ....

Favourite movies quotes ....
I have two favourites :

First is from My Favourite Year with Peter O'Toole. O'Toole staggers into the ladies toilet. An irrate woman comes up to him and shouts 'Sir, this is for ladies only'. To which O'Toole replies (pointing at his nether regions) 'Madam, so is this but occasionally I have to pass water through it'.

And the other has to come from Withnail & I, but there are so many to chose from. This is not quite the opening line, but a great start to a great movie :

'Thirteen million Londoners have to cope with this, and baked beans and All-bran and rape? And I'm sitting in this bl00dy shack and I can't cope with Withnail. I must be out of my mind. I must go home at once and discuss his problems in depth. '

Any others ... ?

[Fiver]

I have two also.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off:
"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

Either that one or

Pretty much anything from Anchorman

Don't get me going on Withnail......we'd be here all night

"Don't pi55 in my pocket and tell me it's raining" - Layer Cake.

Jacko.

One of my favourites is in "The Greatest Story Ever Told", you see the film around Easter time on the telly sometimes.

John Wayne has a cameo role as a Roman Centurion at the crucifixion and as Jesus dies and all the thunder and lightning starts, Wayne looks up and says "This man was truly the son of God". Nothing funny in itself but the way that the line is delivered in best John Wayne drawl is so cheesy it cracks me up.

Withnail and I

I can't even think about the bit where Withnail goes fishing with a shotgun without p1551ng myself laughing!


For a "to the point" rejoinder, I always rather liked:

Josey Wales: You a bounty hunter?
Bounty Hunter: A man has to do something these days to earn a living.
Josey Wales: Dyin' ain't much of a living boy

anything from trading places....."maybe i'll go to the movies...... by myself"

or Full Metal Jacket especially in the chopper with 'Trigger Happy'
"Get some! Get some!......anyone that runs is VC, anyone that doesn't run is well disciplined VC! aint war hell!"

[Jiminy]

This is not good for afternoon productivity .... I've also remembered Robert Duval's famous line from Apocalypse Now (no not the Napalm one, although that's superb)
'If I say its safe to surf this beach Captain, then its safe to surf this beach.'

Jules: Ain't no f*ckin' ballpark neither. Now look, maybe your method of massage differs from mine, but, you know, touchin' his wife's feet, and stickin' your tongue in her Holiest of Holies, ain't the same f*ckin' ballpark, it ain't the same league, it ain't even the same f*ckin' sport. Look, foot massages don't mean ****.

[fil2]

Jules: Look, just because I don't be givin' no man a foot massage don't make it right for Marsellus to throw Antwan into a glass motherf*ckin' house f*ckin' up the way the ****** talks. Motherf*cker do that **** to me, he better paralyze my ass cuz I'll kill the motherf*cker, know what I'm sayin'?

[fil2]

Bullet Tooth Tony: Now, dicks have drive and clarity of vision, but they are not clever. They smell pussy and they want a piece of the action. And you thought you smelled some good old pussy, and have brought your two small mincey ****** balls along for a good old time. But you've got your parties mangled up. There's no pussy here, just a dose that'll make you wish you were born a woman. Like a *****, you are having second thoughts. You are shrinking, and your two little balls are shrinking with ya. The fact that you've got "Replica" written down the side of your gun. (withdraws his gun) And the fact that I've got "Desert Eagle point five O" written on the side of mine, should precipitate your balls into shrinking, along with your presence. Now... F*ck off.
