If a man ever bought that for me, not only would I have sex with him, but I would enjoy it!

~Stockard Channing commenting on an item in a jewellery store.

“I hate Illinois nazis.”

Wendy: Is Mike Hunt here? (pause) Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?

Meat: Practically everybody in town, from what I hear.

Porky's



Comshaw

I saw that movie in Brooklyn, I think it was the Benson Theater on 86th Street. When Meat says something while hearing Cherry's feigned orgasms, "That chick must be from Brooklyn," you can imagine the audience reaction.

Brooklyn audiences in the early 1980's could be tough, too. They hated Cannery Row (what did they expect?) and they were baffled by Monte Python at the Hollywood Bowl. I saw those at the Fortway Theater on Fort Hamilton Parkway.

Hard to believe Susan Clark is now eighty.

“He doesn’t know it’s a damn show. He thinks it’s a damn fight. Finish this bum and let’s go home.”

“Where’s your hat?”

Probably my favourite two lines from this movie.

Super Soul:
There goes the challenger being chased by the big blue meanies on wheels. The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver, the last American hero, the electric sintar, the demi-god, the super driver of the golden west!



Super Soul:
Kowalski, can you hear me? Do you hear me, Kowalski? Now, I know you can hear me, Kowalski. I'm sure you hear me now. This very minute.



OK, OK, there were probably better quotes, but still, you get the drift ....

Jaws is one of the movies I can quote from the most

"Hooper, quit playin with yourself"

"Why don't you come down here and chum some of this shit?"

"That's one bad hat Harry!"

Not exactly a quote, but that chilling story Robert Shaw tells about delivering the bomb and the ship sinking and the sharks picking off the survivors was delivered while he was totally shitfaced.

Legendary.

The USS Indianapolis story was true. However, he doesn't fully explain the problem. There were so many American ships in the Pacific at that time that no on noticed it was overdue at it's intended destination in the Philippines. (The fog of war indeed.) By chance, the survivors were spotted by a plane more than three days later, as Shaw's character describes.

He should have armed himself if he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend.

No mistakes in the tango. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on.

Welcome back, Mr. Lasky. Please join us. We have a lot to talk about.

That line still gives me a chill.

But you had to see the whole film to understand it.

Harry Callahan: When a naked man is chasing a woman through a dark alley with a butcher knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross.

“It take approximately 500 lbs to crush a human skull.
But the human emotion is a much more delicate thing.” Ben Willis from "Cashback".

Grand Prix, 1966


Scott Stoddard:
Y'know one of the most beautiful things about a car? If it isn't working properly, you can strip the skin off, expose the insides, find out exactly where the trouble is, take out the faulty part and replace it with a new one. If only we could do that with people!


Izo Yamura:
Right after the war, my house in Tokyo was used by an American general and his family. When it was returned to me, it had: flowered wallpaper, three new bathrooms, and four new closets. Americans, I think, are over-devoted to bathrooms and closets.

Joshua: No, Dr Falken. Let's play "Set up a new printer over the WiFi".

Falken: WiFi, what the fuck is that, Joshua?
Joshua: I predict it will be big in 30 or 40 years, Sir. You should buy stock in Nortel, as soon as possible.
