quote:You know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desparately to shed? Pure West Virginia. What's your father, dear? Is he a coal miner? Does he stink of the lamb? You know how quickly the boys found you... all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars...while you could only dream of getting out... getting anywhere... getting all the way to the FBI.

Ahh yes, I recognize The Blues Brothers, I don't recognize the one from The Breakfast Club but I only saw that once and a little while ago so I'm not too surprised.

I apologize for what I'm about to do, but given the brouhaha going on here today, I think it's relevant...
Chad : Is it the eggs? Dylan : It's not the eggs. Chad : Is it the boat? Dylan : No, it's not the boat, I have to go though. Chad : Is it the Chad? Dylan : It might be the Chad. Chad : The Chad... It's the Chad!
--Charlie's Angels
The only movie EVER in which I actually enjoyed Tom Green's presence onscreen.

Kind of easy to figure out which movie it's from, but it stuck in my head. I got the chance to finally see it on Sunday night, and I enjoyed it a lot.

It's the cast from my favorite television program, The African American Hour. It's funny, but it also makes you think.

Thank God for the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk.
The idea had been growing in my brain for some time: TRUE force. All the king's men cannot put it back together again.
The Two Towers:
quote: What can men do against such reckless hate?
Lambs:
quote:Poor little Catherine is waiting.
Is it true what they're sayin'? He's some kinda vampire? They don't have a name for what it is.
from imdb: Hannibal Lecter : Tell me, Senator: did you nurse Catherine yourself? Senator Ruth Martin : What? Hannibal Lecter : Did you breast-feed her? Sen. Martin's Aide : Now wait a minute... Senator Ruth Martin : Yes, I did. Hannibal Lecter : Toughened your nipples, didn't it? Sen. Martin's Aide : You son of a bitch! Hannibal Lecter : Amputate a man's leg and he can still feel it tickling. Tell me, mum, when your little girl is on the slab, where will it tickle you? Senator Ruth Martin : Take this... *thing* back to Baltimore! Hannibal Lecter : Five foot ten, strongly built, about a hundred and eighty pounds; hair blonde, eyes pale blue. He'd be about thirty-five now. He said he lived in Philadelphia, but he may have lied. That's all I can remember, mum, but if I think of any more, I will let you know. Oh, and Senator, just one more thing..... Love your suit.
Bad Santa: (warning? I have censored, though)
quote: Kid : Your beard's not real. Willie : It was real, but I got sick and all the hair fell out. Kid : How come? Willie : I loved a woman who wasn't clean. Kid : Mrs. Claus? Willie : Actually it was her sister.
Kid : Good night, Santa. Good night, Mrs. Santa's sister.
Kid : Santa! Willie : Yeah? Kid : You're bringing my present early? Willie : No. Kid : But I never told you what I wanted. Willie : I said I didn't bring it, dip****.

quote: David Drumlin : I know you must think this is all very unfair. Maybe that's an understatement. What you don't know is I agree. I wish the world was a place where fair was the bottom line, where the kind of idealism you showed at the hearing was rewarded, not taken advantage of. Unfortunately, we don't live in that world. Ellie Arroway : Funny, I've always believed that the world is what we make of it.
Me too... "As long as you have two hands don't complain about bad luck", or something like that, from Dune...
quote: Ellie Arroway : Science fiction. You're right, it's crazy. In fact, it's even worse than that, it's nuts. You wanna hear something really nutty? I heard of a couple guys who wanna build something called an airplane, you know you get people to go in, and fly around like birds, it's ridiculous, right? And what about breaking the sound barrier, or rockets to the moon? Atomic energy, or a mission to Mars? Science fiction, right? Look, all I'm asking is for you to just have the tiniest bit of vision. You know, to just sit back for one minute and look at the big picture. To take a chance on something that just might end up being the most profoundly impactful moment for humanity, for the history... of history.
quote: Ellie Arroway : So what's more likely? That an all-powerful, mysterious God created the Universe, and decided not to give any proof of his existence? Or, that He simply doesn't exist at all, and that we created Him, so that we wouldn't have to feel so small and alone?
quote: Young Ellie : Dad, do you think there's people on other planets? Ted Arroway : I don't know, Sparks. But I guess I'd say if it is just us... seems like an awful waste of space.
All from Contact... My favorite film ever...

And pretty much all of The Usual Suspects. Examples follow:
quote:Keaton : His name is Verbal. Verbal Kint. McManus : Verbal? Keaton : Yeah. Verbal : Roger, really. People say I talk too much. Hockney : Yeah, I was just about to tell you to shut up.
quote:Fenster : You do some time, they never let you go. You know. They treat you like a criminal. *I'm* not a criminal. Hockney : You *are* a criminal. Fenster : Now why'd you got to go and do that? (I'm) trying to make a point.
quote:Cop: I can put you in Queens on the night of the hijacking. Hockney : Really? I live in Queens, did you put that together yourself, Einstein? Got a team of monkeys working around the clock on this?
And so many more... I love that movie.

quote:You need to learn this: religion is poison. Poison. Like a poison it weakens the race. Like a drug, it retards the mind of people and society. "The opiate of the people". Tibet has been poisoned by religion, and your people are poisoned and inferior. Let me walk you to your car
quote:Brick Tamland : I love... carpet. [pause] Brick Tamland : I love... desk. Ron Burgundy : Brick, are you just looking at things in the office and saying that you love them? Brick Tamland : I love lamp. Ron Burgundy : Do you really love the lamp, or are you just saying it because you saw it? Brick Tamland : I love lamp! I love lamp.
I think I want to say that consistently now. I love lamp!
