OK, this is a really crazy idea, but it just could work. When you post on this thread, say whatever you want, and then at the end of your post, put up the last funny quote you heard in bold. That's all you have to do. Varied discussion is encouraged. I'll kickstart the entire thing:

Halle Berry was so sexy in that movie.
And now...a quote that just popped into my head on the spot!
"Sometimes, I beat myself up, just to get some sympathy!"
Halle Berry may be sexy in the "Display-ish" sence of the word, but in terms of acting, she is total rubish. IMHO.

Heh, figures, I go to answer a question, and the thread went and changed topics of me. So on topic, no, I don't like Star Trek, but then I've never really seen it, I just sort of don't have an interest in it. And now, off topic- er, on the old topic? or something:
Lisa, what muppet films do you have memorised.
I have MTI memorized for sure and certain, haven't tested myself of GMC yet but probably have it almost completely, MCC I think I just need to watch it one more time and I'll be talking along with it again, MTM I have almost down pat, and an occasional line or so from MFS. But just you wait until disney releases TMM on dvd in November, I'll watch it at least tiwce before I even sign onto MC after I get it, I promise you that!

Whoa, Eerie, Indiana, that show is a blast from the past! I used to watch it. It's a bizzare show. Don't remember it at all.
Today I found Mr. Dressup on tv. Anyone watch THAT show?? Possibly THE greatest kids show EV4R.

As I was going to Saint Ives,I met a man with 7 wives.Each wife had 7 sacks,each sack had 7 cats,each cat had 7 kits.Kittens,cats,sacks and wives;how many were going the other way?

One. He'd left his wives, etc at home. No one specified they were with him on the road....
"Assimulate This!" - Worf
2800 were going the other way.
The answer to the riddle is usually said to be one: the person reciting the rhyme was going to St Ives, and everyone else was going the opposite way. Depending on how the question is interpreted, the answer could also be zero: the person travelling to St Ives is not any of "kits, cats, sacks, wives".
Going away from St Ives were: one (1) man, seven (7) wives, seven times seven (49) sacks, seven times seven times seven (343) cats, and seven times seven times seven times seven (2,401) kits, making a total of 8 humans, 49 sacks, and a slightly implausible 2,744 felines; a grand total of 2,800 kits, cats, sacks, and wives (or 2,801 if you include the man).

I got them cheap too because I couldn't afford the toe-capped ones but I wnated navy blue. The inly navy blue ones they had were toe-capped so the shop guy knocked twenty quid (about $35 USD) off for me.

Ah yeah Beverly Hills Cop. I saw that movie in a Flroida theater in the summer of 1985. We were on one of our vacations to Florida that included visiting my grandmother and going to Disney World. I saw this movie by myself because everyone else wanted to see "Cocoon" (except my brother, but he was only 13). Great movie with a good soundtrack and funny lines, like the banana in a tail pipe you mentioned.

I think my first R movie was "Stand By Me", and it could well be my favorite R movie to this day. Except every once in a while, "El Mariachi" gets to me.
Gordy: Shut up.
Teddy, Vern, Chris: I don't shut up, I throw up. And when I look at you, I throw up!
I believe the quote is, "I don't shut up, I grow up. And when I look at you, I throw up!" Probably just an oversight, there. :)
I loved "Stand By Me" too. I remember thinking it was the best movie of 1986. And it's still my favorite Rob Reiner movie ("Misery" is a close second).
And interesting that both of those were adaptations from Stephen King.

Hmmm, I never noticed that. I guess I'll have to watch the movie later and find out. :) Actually, that'll be a good kick-off to my Year at the Movies, as I decided not to watch "The Terminal" today. I figure I'll watch it with my dad tomorrow.
Gordy: (holding gun) Hey, is this thing loaded?
Chris: Naw, you don't think I'd be that stupid, do ya? (Gordy cocks the gun, and pulls the trigger. The gun fires.)
Both: JESUS!

And I thought it'd be fun to watch it again myself so that's what I just did. :)
The train scene and the scene where Chris tells Gordie what really happened regarding the stolen milk money remain my favorite scenes of the movie.
And this movie also had a great 50's soundtrack (Lollipop,Great Balls of Fire, Get a Job,Yakkity Yak, and, of course, Stand By Me). I bought a cassette tape of the soundtrack back at the time.
Teddy: Did your mother ever have any kids that lived?

Actually, I'm just about to watch it myself. I guess I'll make a bit of a concession in that my first movie of the Year will run into the second day. But who cares, it's a movie. My favorite scenes are the train dodge (of course), the leeches, the milk money and the Lard-*** "Tri County Pie Eat" scenes. God, I love that movie.
Teddy: You call my father a loony one more time, and I'll beat the crap out of you.
Milo: Loony, loony, loony...

Yeah the leeches was probably my third fave scene. Especially when they say, "It's not very deep. We can walk across. Whoaaaaaaaa! *splash*! "
Enjoy the movie again, TA. It is indeed a great one (and visually fun to look at, too. In fact, the photography of the train sequence further added to the appeal. :) ).
Vern: Do you think Mighty Mouse could beat up Superman?
Teddy: What, are you cracked?
Vern: Why not? I saw the other day he was carrying five elephants in one hand.
Teddy: He's a cartoon. A cartoon cannot beat up a real human.
Vern: Oh yeah. Well it would be a good fight, though.

Who would've thunk Rob Reiner would become such a great actor & director,starting out on All in the Family & other small cameos.I love When Harry Met Sally & This is Spinal Tap,Misery,Sleepless in Seattle,Princess Bride,Ghosts of Mississippi,A Few Good Men.
Sam: What is 'tiramisu'?
Jay: You'll find out.

Yeah Rob Reiner, like Ron Howard, has done a very good job with his movies. He's certainly no Meathead when it comes to directing. :)
The Princess Bride would be my third fave of his (after Stand By Me and Misery). But the best single line has to come from "When Harry Met Sally":
"I'll have what she's having."
JaniceFerSure

I'll have what she's having,delivered by Reiner's mom,lol.Also,there's a young Keifer Sutherland and Jerry O' Connell in Stand by Me...
Harry: I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out.I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich.I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts.I love that after I spend the day with you,I can still smell your perfume on my clothes.And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night.And it's not because I'm lonely,and it's not because it's New Year's Eve.I came here tonight,because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody,you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Sally: See,that is just like you Harry,you say those things and you make it impossible for me to hate you! And I hate you Harry,I really hate you.

Handel's not half bad, and "Amadeus" is a great movie. And of course I like "Phantom of the Opera" quite a bit. Other than that, though...
