"But I'm still USING it!"
"And don't think it hasn't been a little slice of heaven!.... Cause it hasn't!"
"Show me the MONEY!"
And do you also say Fro-derick?
Randy lay there like a slug. It was his only defense.
Daddy's gonna kill Ralphie!
CBS? My channels don't go that low.
In the heat of battle, my father wove a tapestry of obsenity that as far as we know, is still hanging in space over Lake Michigan. :o)
It's a clinker! That blasted stupid furnace dadgummit!
I enjoyed almost all the dialog in Tombstone (1991) with Kurt Russell, et al:
Doc Holliday: [after killing Johnny Ringo] It would appear that the strain was more than he could bear.
Wyatt Earp (after slapping around the Billy Bob Thornton character): Skin that smoke wagon and see what happens!
Not great art, but a very enjoyable movie with loads of good lines.
Doc: "Why, Ike! Maybe poker just isn't your game. I know -- let's have a spelling contest!"
Did you see the recent episode of animated series "Father of the Pride" where Ermey made an appearance as the voice of a hard-ass exercise-coach bunny who sounded exactly like a certain drill sergeant? It was HILARIOUS..
Billy Clanton: Why, it's the drunk piano player. You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'. In fact, you're probably seeing double. [Clanton draws a knife; Holliday takes out a second gun] Doc Holliday: I have two guns, one for each of ya.
Doc Holliday: It appears my hypocrisy knows no bounds.
I never got the impression that it was a widly popular movie, but I think it's one of the better westerns made in the last decade, far better than the Costner Wyatt Earp movie, which I didn't make it all the way through.
As a kid, I used to live in Sierra Vista, about 30 miles from Tombstone and became steeped in the lore of the place. I grew up thinking of Doc and Wyatt and Virgil as people I almost knew. When I first saw "Tombstone", it was like those imaginary characters come to life. It was uncannily real to me.
I agree -- a great western and a great film. I would put it in my top tier of westerns, right up there with "Rio Bravo", "The Magnificent Seven" and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance."
Give him a sedagive!

Thanks for the link, it's bookmarked.
I've wanted to travel that area, haven't happened yet, but it's on the list...
Great list, I especially enjoy Rio Bravo. I also would add True Grit, The Unforgiven and possibly Silverado but I haven't seen that since it first came out and I suspect my tastes have changed.
No, Scott Farkus had yellow eyes...
Excelsior! You fathead.
