PS I would PAY to see PM Rutte take the Beep test. Just for the fun of It I would beg Nato to invite each bloody sitcom show on the planet for that one.
I had this in my head since they pushed Rutte in to begging for the NATO job. If you ever seen Rutte try to do sports I hope NATO knows what the hell they are doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR5yhKQo3dc
We had that phase with the elephant march. It's an army thing. My husband used to sing it to boost moral when it was at low point during the marching practise. ( Sergeant at military base in Volkel & Stolzenau) song drove me NUTS.
One summer break I carpooled with a buddy to work every day. The weeks he drove we listened to the Stripes soundtrack on the way to work and the OJ Simpson trial on the way back. And nothing else.
Oh my yes. I have an odd list of favorites. This one has some amazing lines but I think it's my favorite because it was one of my first dates with my husband and had this line from it in my wedding vows to see him smile.
Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?
Honest question: how is Scarlett a feminist? She actively used and abused the women around her for her own gain. She is no better than Regina in The Little Foxes. Both are truly terrible humans.
“Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know.” And he says, “Oh, uh, there won’t be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.” So I got that goin’ for me, which is nice.
I saw Mean Girls for my friend's 16th birthday the night it premiered and I've loved it ever since. It was the perfect film at the perfect time and no matter how old I am when I watch it, I feel 15 again.
I was in NY in 85. Driving around Manhattan with a cousin. Then decided to see a movie. It was either Teen Wolf of what is now my favourite film. The magic of cinema. Had no idea what the film was about. Happy memories!
There are so many amazing threads going off your individual movies. This is like a chat room. I love it. Keeping up through notifications is tripping me out though 😂
"Suicides, assassinations, mad bombers, Mafia hitmen, automobile smash-ups: "The Death Hour." A great Sunday night show for the whole family. It'd wipe that fuckin' Disney right off the air."
“I Am Gonna' Ask You Questions, And Every Time You Don't Give Me Answers, I’m Gonna' Cut Something Off. And I Promise You, They WILL Be Things You Will Miss!”
They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway, not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past.
- Papa speaks Provençal. You know?
- Oh, but very few still understand it. It's now exclusively practiced by poets and sodomites.
- What a sodomite is, by the way?
- I will explain to you tonight.
"When you're 16, they call it Sweet 16. And when you're 18 you get to drink and and vote and see dirty movies. What the hell do you get to do when you're 19?"
Second quote: "They're just gonna keep calling us 'cutters'. To them, it's just a dirty word. To me, it's just somethin' else I never got a chance to be.
Random squids chilling in pods trying to communicate, when they finally do they drop a bombshell and ink away. Then you realize that whatever connection chic has with the squids a parents love is stronger than the aversion to heartache and pain, cyclical speech and time, Abbot & Costello squids
I die!!!! My bestie in law school would say this line at the most inappropriate times and I would fall out laughing. I still at how he killed it and no one around us had a clue what he was talking about.
When you've watched (or fallen asleep to) a particular movie as many times as I have, certain lines that aren't the famous ones get lodged in your brain:
"Did you hear that? They've shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure."
“Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be'—she always called me Elwood—‘in this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.”
"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
I am practicing this because after using Google Translate I determined this will be my new favorite party line to try and see if I can work into conversation.
If you are not afraid of a movie where the cast consists only of eight glamourous and madly hysterical women, then I really recommend this movie too. And it has lots of highly quotable one-liners.
A brilliant 14yro boy goes to college & meets an older version of himself. He antagonizes the other physics majors, creates a super powerful laser the gov. acquires. They sneak onto the AF base and reprogram the tracking sw to target their sleazy advisor’s house and blow it up with popcorn.

There was what, no one at the mutant hamster races, we only had one entry into the Madame Curie look-alike contest and he was disqualified later. Why do I even bother?
Me: You didn't touch anything, did you?
You: No.
Me: Good. Because all of my filth is arranged in alphabetical order. This, for instance, is under 'H' for "toy."
You: What is that?
Me: It's a penis stretcher. Do you want to try it?
You: No!
I was singing this today. It's part of a tragic YouTube series my 9 yo loves. I walked in and he was singing this. He was floored to hear me join in it may be the coolest thing I've done.
i remember listening to late 90s hiphop as a youth and my mom walking in the room like “this just an old disco song”.. simply *ruining* my precious little world that i thought was so original haha. nothing/everything changes
My kid is in college and sent me an Aztec Camera clip and it@ took everything I had not to tell her her how many times I saw them in DC expanded city universe 15 bucks a ticket.
To a degree it was a forecast. Apple lost a lawsuit based on a “prior art” defense by the other party. Apple was suing an iPad knockoff, the other party used the TV tablets Bowman or Pool used in the movie to show Apple didn’t come up with the tablet idea.
2001: A Space Odyssey. The line is spoken by HAL9000 the computer (who's gone mad). This clip gives the context (and Dave does get back into the ship). https://youtu.be/Wy4EfdnMZ5g?si=cSs4tSqrQWrI5vFp
A kindred! I still use this liberally. Not gonna lie, some get it but most look at me like I’m nuts. I know this thread is old but I just got here, so cut me some slack.
Mother Night...fold your dark arms about me. Protect me in your black embrace. I sit alone, an impotent exile, whilst this form, this presence, returns to torment me!

"What do you mean by 'everyone'?"
"EVERYONE!!!!!"
“Taffeta, sweetheart.”
“No, the dress - is taffeta. It wrinkles so easily.”
"Yeah. Yeah! Let's go get sushi and not pay!"
"Did you hear that? They've shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure."

THIS movie is about physics. And also wishful thinking. And hammering a six inch spike through a board with your penis.
It’s SUCH a great movie. So many quotes!
You: No.
Me: Good. Because all of my filth is arranged in alphabetical order. This, for instance, is under 'H' for "toy."

Not the star but Jon Gries is in it.
There you go, there's another.
Another, even if with more words.
“This one goes to eleven!”
And
“We need a plan!”

“By all means, move at a glacial pace…”
My husband made the judge cry and I had her laughing and probably wondering why he was marrying me.
Sorry I 'm late on entries.
But the US theatrical version. not the director's cut. The only film I'd say that about.
“Fasten your seatbelts. It’s going to be a bumpy night.”
I LOVE this one!!

2) "That's your problem...you're sexist. I didn't shoot a woman. I shot a cop."
Hit it!
