h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I enjoy it, though I wouldn't be able to quote from it though...

"Life of Brian"
"Look, you're all individuals!"
Crowd: "Yes! We're all individuals!"
"I'm not."


"Young Frankenstein"
"I remember what my Dad used to say during times like these..."
"Um. What did your father say?"
"Get out of the bathroom and give someone else a chance!"


"Princess Bride"
"Ah... Hello, Lady!"

"Sleep well and dream of large women..."

"HUMPERDINCK! HUMPERDINCK! HUMPERDINCK!"
"I'm not listening!"

"Wait! You mean if I cure this fellow, Humperdinck suffers?"
"Humiliations galore!"

"Lethal Weapon"
"I think I saw this place on 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Shameless'..."

"Long Kiss Goodnight"
"What's that kid's name? Cat head?"
"Caitlan!"

and then there are those totally bizarre moments when we drive to church on sunday mornings with the spousal unit and the child and I singing along to "Every Sperm Is Sacred" or the "Medical Song"...

The movie we have watched to death recently was "Fifth Element".
We don't quote it much, but we know every scene.

a whole series of plagiarisms from movies... my life it is...

"scrubbers", " I demand booze", " I'm going to take you.. even if it is by burglary".. hooo.. "Doh!", " I have a heart condition.. and if you hit me it's murder", " if I spike you you'll know you've been spoken to"..

" i have a cunning plan"..

be original you can.. yes

or maybe not!!!!!!!!!!!!

" a sphincter says what", " baking powder"... fnaa fnaa!!

The Replacements has a few memorable quotes that I hear frequently at football practice.

John Madden: 'I love to see a fat guy score.'
Pat Summerall: 'Why?'
John Madden: 'Because then you get to see a fat guy spike, then you ge tto see a fat guy dance.'

Nigel Gruff (played by that Spike guy from Nitting Hill): 'You just hold the ball, Shane, and I'll kick the bl**dy pi$$ out of it.'

Shane Falco: 'Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever.'


Then I go around using curses from Red Dwarf. 'Smeggin' 'eck!', 'Smeghead!' and the likes.

The Dwarf is always good for quotes.

Whenever leaving a room - "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast"

Desperado

"There someting to drink?"
"There someting in de guitar case?"
"Yeah"
"What?"
"My guitar"

Why i should have seen that particular film so many times is beyond me.

I went through a phase of watching The Crow nearly every day, a few years ago. I still love that film. Arghh, I havent seen it in ages.

s off to buy the DVD to replace the taped-off-of-tv video he has...

It'd have to be Lock Stock, wouldn't it?

I very rarely find myself telling someone to relax without saying "Chilll Winstarn" and never ever again can I describe something as "cheap" without adding "like the budgie"

Damn film.

B

And they're armed...

Armed... with what?

Oh bad breath, feather dusters, colourful language. Guns, you t*t.

"I was visiting a bar there, not unlike this one. They serve beer, not quite as good as this, but close. And in walks the biggest Mexican I have ever seen, big as shit! Just walks in like he owns the place. And nobody knew quite what to make of him, or quite what to think. But there he was and in he walked."

"Bless me father, for I have just killed quite a few men."

You are not alone, Inky, no you aren't. Haven't counted how often i watched the thing, but i do know why."Sick, slick fun." that's why.

Haven't watched Desperado...

well, like the old lady said, if you like that sort of thing, you'll like this one.

Hmmm... I'll look for it.
I LOVE that sort of thing.

excellent taste
Another movie i've watched as much as Desperado is Predator. You see that?

Tremors - every time it's on TV.

"We decided to leave town just one d*mn day too late."

Given a choice, I'm always "six of one, half dozen the other, here".

Name my obsession.

Top Gun. I love that movie! Haven't watched it ages.
Sizzling little belly

Was that a reply to me? 'Cause uh-uh. But it is a good movie, not exactly quotable though.
