How about "A Fish Called Wanda" -


It's K-K-K-Ken c-c-c-coming to k-k-k-kill me.


Wanda: To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people. I've known sheep who could outwit you. I've worn dresses with higher IQs, but you think you're an intellectual, don't you, ape?

Otto: Apes don't read philosophy.

Wanda: Yes they do, Otto, they just don't understand it.

I know that movie is on Tuffy's Top Ten List. I liked it. My wife hated it.

"Yes, uh my name is uh...Man..fren...sen...jen, and I'm with the CIA briefing everybody about our safe house."

"Well, Mr. Manfrensenjen, my father was in MI5, and I happen to know..."

(The scene also ended with one of the best patriotic in-your-face speeches I've ever heard, about what the good'ol USA did for Europe)

Another winner! (Otto reminds me of some of the pseudointellectuals who post here.)

Have you ever seen Fierce Creatures? Not quite as funny as Wanda, but it does have some hysterical moments . . .and lemurs.

One of my all time faves. I've actually used most of that little diatribe on occasion.

"Otto tried to k-k-k-k-kiss me"

Ruthless People had me on the floor. Especially the scene where Danny Devito answered the phone and it was a wrong number.
