[thechat] Favourite movie lines, was: What does it mean? (Was: Re: [thechat] Bowling tips)

Off the top of my head...

> A couple of lines from a couple of films, all pretty guessable:
> * You two are just dumber than a bag o' hammers
> * Say, uh, Cousin Wash, I suppose it'd be the acme of foolishness
>   to inquire if you had a hair net.
> * She turned me into a newt... ...... (*very* long pause) I got better

My fave Coen film, O Brother Where Art Thou

> * I'd be the worst possible Godfather. I'd probably drop her on her head
>   at her christening. I'd forget all her birthdays until she was 18. Then
>   I'd take her out and get her drunk. And, let's face it, quite possibly
>   try and sleep with her.

No idea on this one, though there's a certain Woody Allen tone to it...

> * What's your name, dude?
>   Uh, Mar-, uh... Eastwood. Clint Eastwood.
>   What kind of stupid name is that?

I'm guessing Back To the Future Part 3.

> * There's a difference between us. You think the people of this land exist
>   to provide you with position. I think your position exists to provide
>   those people with freedom. And I go to make sure that they have it.

Again, very vague memory of this one because I fell asleep in the cinema
(booze not boredom.) Still, you make take our lands, and you may take
our hearts, but you'll never take our popcorn!

> * All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine,
>   public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public
>   health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

Jaguar's earlobes... wolf's nipple chips. Get 'em whilst they're hot!
