  1. How about The Dark Knight, although Heath Ledger was not the star :excl: :excl: ?
  2. Older movie here. It's a jock movie! Anyway, it's one of the most memorable lines (the last one) of the movie to me. You ever hear of Pele? Yeah, he's a soccer player. A very famous soccer player! I was in the room here one day... watchin' the Mexican channel on TV. I don't know nothin' about Pele. I'm watchin' what this guy can do with a ball and his feet. Next thing I know, he jumps in the air and flips into a somersault and kicks the ball in - upside down and backwards... the goddamn goalie never knew what the fu*k hit him. Pele gets excited and he rips off his jersey and starts running around the stadium waving it around his head. Everybody's screaming in Spanish. I'm here, sitting alone in my room, and I start crying. That's right, I start crying. Because another human being, a species that I happen to belong to, could kick a ball, and lift himself, and the rest of us sad-assed human beings, up to a better place to be, if only for a minute... let me tell ya, kid - it was pretty goddamned glorious. It ain't the six minutes... it's what happens in that six minutes. If you were still a virgin back then.....it may be a if your still a virgin movie too. And no, it's not All the Right Moves.

  6. Dorothy, this is not a guy. It's a syndrome. Early mid-life. Hanging on to the bottom rung. "Dear God, don't let me be alone or I call my newly-long-suffering-assistant-without-medical for company settlement."
  7. When I was a growing boy A-rocking on my daddy's knee Daddy took an old guitar and sang Bury me on the lone prairie Uncle Bob sat at the piano My girl cousins sang harmony Those were the good old family times That left a big mark on me
  8. Mimi Rogers The Mirror Has Two Faces George Segal
  9. Sometimes it's not necessarily the most famous line to me, but more of one line (or two or three) that reasonates within us, you, me, or Raf, or WW, whoever's fancy that movie line struck a cord with which basically means "This is the famous line to me"! I didn't know Jack,(no pun indended) about your clue but it got my interest enough to become entertained!
  10. Hummm. Jack Who? Jack Who? Is it Jack Walsh, Jack Torrance, Jack Sparrow, Jack Ryan. How about "The Shining" and Jack Torrance?

  12. I tried using another browser. Everything looks fine now. Mozilla Firefox is a lot better experience than Windows to me. Vast contrast. User friendly, clean and uncluttered. It completely changes the experience of using the internet without crowding things up so bad that you can't recognize what's happening! Spam is non-existent.
