<p>Bingo!</p>
<p>and oops.</p>
<p>DrDrewsmom, if you can trust what you read in the cyberworld, this should make you feel better (people discussing the ‘badges’ line):</p>
<p>"It is definitely a homage to The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. When
Hedley Lamarr is rounding up a group of scoundrels to destroy the town
of Rock Ridge, he gives two banditos some badges, which is when they
reply with the steenkin badges quote.
Which led to this: "this original spawned many homages and copies, my
favorite line of which is in Weird Al Yankovic’s movie “UHF” for a mock
zoo television show they were doing…</p>
<p>Badgers??? We don’t need no steenkin’ badgers!"</p>
<p>over30…we OWN that movie. It was so stupid it was funny!
My kids loved that same guy trying to teach poodles to fly :eek: :D</p>
<p>I’ve always thought that Rodney Dangerfield’s “Back to School” was funny…trashy, but really funny. Dangerfield plays aging student Thornton Melon, a wealthy entrepreneur, who goes back to school in an attempt to encourage his own son complete his education. He wants the degree, but he also wants to take the easy way to get it. In one scene, he obviously hasn’t read the literature assignment. This exchange follows:</p>
<p>Diane (instructor): How would you characterize “The Great Gatsby”? </p>
<h2>Thornton Melon: He was… uh… great! </h2>
<p>Thorton asks Diane, the English instructor, for a date. She replies…</p>
<p>Diane: I’d love to go with you, but I’ve got a class right now. </p>
<h2>Thornton Melon: Well, why don’t you come and see me some time when you have no class. </h2>
<p>And, how can we forget a quote from Thorton’s bodyguard, Lou, when frustrated by the behavior of a group of college kids, reflects aloud…</p>
<h2>“I got two kids. One I put through college. The other, I put through a wall.”</h2>
<p>Not great prose, but corny and charming…</p>
<p>Clint’s was a classic–</p>
<p>“I know what you’re thinking… did he use six bullets, or only five… Well lemme ask you, do you feel lucky, punk?..well do ya?”</p>
<p>And at the end of Hannah & Her sisters, it was a beautiful moment when Diane Weist says:
“Im pregnant”</p>
<p>*“Play it again Sam”…</p>
<p>Rick never actually said “Play it Again Sam.” in Casablanca.*</p>
<p>Yes Bergmans line was actually "play it once Sam, for old Times sake- Play it -play “As Time Goes By”
Play it Again Sam was a Woody Allen movie.</p>
<p>another classic that is not to be missed that I already have mentioned on another thread- but will again because it deserves it is “The Lion in Winter”
First film for Timothy Dalton and Anthony Hopkins.
Stars Peter O’Toole and Kate Hepburn</p>
<p>Peter O’Toole as King Henry:I’ve snapped and plotted all my life. There’s no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once. </p>
<p>Kate as Eleanor of Aquitiane to her son Prince John
[John]A knife! He’s got a knife!
Eleanor: Of course he has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It’s 1183 and we’re barbarians! How clear we make it. Oh, my piglets, we are the origins of war: not history’s forces, nor the times, nor justice, nor the lack of it, nor causes, nor religions, nor ideas, nor kinds of government, nor any other thing. We are the killers. We breed wars. We carry it like syphilis inside. Dead bodies rot in field and stream because the living ones are rotten. For the love of God, can’t we love one another just a little - that’s how peace begins. We have so much to love each other for. We have such possibilities, my children. We could change the world. </p>
<p>another great movie- with Kate & Bogie *the African Queen *
Charlie Allnut:A man takes a drop too much once in a while, it’s only human nature.
Rose Sayer: Nature, Mr. Allnut, is what we are put in this world to rise above.</p>
<p>My favorite Inigo Montoya line is: “I do not think that word means what you think it does” in response to the Sicilian’s repeated usage of “Inconceivable!”</p>
<p>“But I also am not left handed.”</p>
<p>“I came to Casablanca for the waters.”</p>
<p>“It’s a large building full of doctors and patients but that’s not important now.”</p>
<p>“Run away! Run away!”</p>
<p>“You’re the worst pirate I’ve ever heard of.” “But you <em>have</em> heard of me.”</p>
<p>“You know who’ll you have to pay [if this doesn’t work out]? The Coca Cola company.” [Dr. Strangelove, in which Peter Sellers is shooting open a Coca Cola machine to get change to call the President on a pay phone.]</p>
<p>“No, you threw up <em>on</em> Dean Wormer.”</p>
<p>“Who <em>are</em> those guys?”</p>
<p>“When we last met, it was I who was the student and you who were the master, now we have come full circle.”</p>
<p>and, yeah, the “I fart in your general direction” makes it around this precinct too.</p>
<p>the low-high-low whistle from Hawkeye Pierce in M<em>A</em>S*H.</p>
<p>“Say goodnight, Gracie.” (TV)</p>
<p>“When you wake up, you’ll be blind, paralyzed, and dead.” (TV)</p>
<p>One of my favorite exchanges is in “Bringing Up Baby”, in which Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn are brilliantly cast against type (she’s an airhead, he’s a nerd). After she tortures him throughout the entire film, subjecting him to every imaginable embarrassment and inconvenience, they wind up in jail, and she says, “Don’t worry, David, when they find out who we are they’ll let us go.”</p>
<p>And he says, as only Cary Grant could, “When they find out who you are, they’ll pad the cell.”</p>
<p>Does anyone else enjoy “The Essentials” series on TCM? Famous directors present their favorite films from the past. It’s been hosted by Peter Bogdanovich for a while now. He’s an excellent film writer - I recommend his books if you love classic Hollywood.</p>

<p>Monty Python and the Holy Grail</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>About 3 years ago we painted our kitchen red. Actually the color on the paint chip from Home Depot was called elderberry. So this quote came up often at our house!</p>
<p>Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government</p>
<p>There’s a Python quote for almost any situation. :)</p>
<p>p.s. I’d forgotten about the Life of Brian Latin lesson. that was fabulous!</p>
<p>I think I will have to forward this entire thread to S, the Monty Python fan.
The Latin lesson brought both reminiscent smiles and winces. I had a Latin teacher who used to go ballistic about the movie Quo Vadis, Domine because of the bad Latin (should have been eis, not vadis). I did not see the movie, but I gather it was also bad.</p>
<p>“Well, what do we do about the kid, Frank?”
“Now that you have used my name …” [kid is shot].</p>
<p>Once Upon a Time in the West.</p>
<p>“Looks like we are one horse shy.”
“No, seems like you have two too many.”</p>
<p>Also, Once Upon a Time in the West</p>
<p>Oh oh, we almost forgot</p>
<p>“Bring out your Dead.”</p>
<p>“I’m not dead yet.”</p>
<p>“Don’t worry, you soon will be.”</p>
<p>“But I’m feeling happy…! I think I’ll go for a walk.”</p>
<p>Wilford Brimley in Absence of Malice: My favorite is the first. These seem quite timely at the moment…</p>
<p>Note: he pronounces the word, “subpeeny”
James A. Wells, Assistant U.S. Attorney General: Tell you what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna sit right here and talk about it. Now if you get tired of talking here, Mr. Marshal Elving Patrick there will hand you one of them subpoenas he’s got stuck down in his pocket and we’ll go downstairs and talk in front of the grand jury… Elliot? Jim?.. Fine. All right, Elving, hand whichever one of these fellas you like a subpoena and we’ll go on downstairs and talk in front of the grand jury.
District Attorney James A. Quinn: Gallagher’s a government witness.
James A. Wells, Assistant U.S. Attorney General: Wonderful thing, a subpoena</p>
<hr>
<p>James A. Wells, Assistant U.S. Attorney General: You had a leak? You call what’s goin’ on around here a leak? Boy, the last time there was a leak like this, Noah built hisself a boat. </p>
<hr>
<p>James A. Wells, Assistant U.S. Attorney General: Now we’ll talk all day if you want to. But, come sundown, there’s gonna be two things true that ain’t true now. One is that the United States Department of Justice is goin’ to know what in the good Christ - e’scuse me, Angie - is goin’ on around here. And the other’s I’m gonna have somebody’s ass in muh briefcase. </p>
<hr>
<p>James A. Wells, Assistant U.S. Attorney General: We can’t have people go around leaking stuff for their own reasons. It ain’t legal. And worse than that, by God it ain’t right. </p>
<p>…
And, “There’s no crying in baseball”.</p>
<p>“When we’re done with you, you’ll be able to stand up and slaughter your enemies like civilized men.”<br>
Sean Connery in “The Man Who Would be King.”</p>
<p>And we have a “bring out your dead” t-shirt at my house. I might be willing to rent it out on alternate weekends.</p>
<p>patient…
that was a great line by tom hanks and a wonderful performance as the drunken coach…but that movie reminds me of one of my biggest complaints about some movies…i hate when they try to make a young person look OLD…it never works,a league of there own was a very good movie except for the torture of watching the makeup job of gina davis and her sister character looking like grandmas…</p>
<p>Sorry Isacc, but the older characters in “A League of Their Own” were played by different actresses. Dottie was played by Lynn Cartwright (born in 1927) and her sister Kit was played by Kathleen Butler not Lori Petty.</p>
<p>i hate when they try to make a young person look OLD…it never works</p>
<p>Thanks- I disagree but it reminded me of a good movie
Little Big Man
Old Lodge Skins: There is an endless supply of white men. There has always been a limited number of human beings.</p>
<p>Given that this is CC, how about Dean Vernon Wormer to Flounder in Animal House -</p>
