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

Um... comfused.

I am book/movie/tv quote-a-holic...

Recently it's been Office Space...

Samir: No one is this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard: Nayee-Nanajar. Nayeenanajar.

Michael Bolton: Yeah, well, at least you're name isn't Michael Bolton.

Samir: You know, there's nothing wrong with that name.

Michael Bolton: There WAS nothing wrong with it. Until I was about 12 years old, and that no-talent-ass-clown BECAME famous and started winning Grammy's.

Samir: Why don't you just go by Mike, instead of Michael?
Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change it? He's the one who sucks.

Or...


Peter Gibbons: I don't like my job and I don't think I'll go anymore.

Joanna: You're just not gonna go?
Peter Gibbons: Yeah.

Joanna: Won't you get fired?

Peter Gibbons: I don't know. But I really don't like it and, uh, I'm
not gonna go.

Joanna: So you're gonna quit?

Peter Gibbons: Uh-uh. Not really. I'm just gonna stop going.

Joanna: When did you decide all that?

Peter Gibbons: About an hour ago.

Joanna: So you're going to get another job?

Peter Gibbons: I don't think I'll like another job.

Joanna: Well what are you going to do about money? Bills?

Peter Gibbons: You know I never really liked paying bills, I don't think I'm going to do that either.

or...

Bob Slydell: Looks like you've been missing quite a bit of work lately.

Peter Gibbons: Well, I wouldn't say I've been MISSING it, Bob.

or...

Milton Waddams: [talking on the phone)] And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and its not okay because if they take my stapler then ill set the building on fire.

Don't even get me started on MP's Holy Grail or the Simpson's...

"It's a little dirty but it's still good, it's still good!!!"

Blazing saddles
-"What have you done?"
"stampeding cattle"
-"is that all"
"Through the Vatican"
-"Kinky"

And of course the overquoted scene from They Live
"I'm here to kick @$$ and chew bublegum and i'm all outa bublegum"

"But sugar, 15 is my limit on schnitzengruuben"

"What is it, when it ain't exactly water and it ain't exactly earth?"

"I get no kick from champagne..."

"You must bring us... a shrubbery!"

None shall pass!

I do tend to use "Run away! Run away!" quite a lot.

*grins* It's a must

Seen the Lego sequence for the "Kinghts of the Round Table" song?

No. I don't have BBC anything.

...Sir Not Appearing in this Film...

The Lego sequence is on the DVD, and is fantastic. If you watch closely there's also a Lego dead parrot.

*is intrigued*

What Lego sequence?

They recreated the Camelot scene entirely in Lego. Lego knights, a Lego castle, even a Lego skeleton in the dungeon.

Must remember to ask for that for my birthday.

I love Monty Python and the Holy Grail!

'We have already got one!' being the standard response when I come to the front door of my house when coming back from uni!

*adopts ridiculous French accent* I fart in your general direction!

Who are you that are so wise in the ways of science?

Brave Sir Robin ran away, Oh Brave Sir Robin

A copy of the Lego sequence is available on the Lego website (oh c'mon, I'm sure you can guess!) in the 'director' part of the site dealing with the do it yourself animations/web cam/movie making kit
