Daredevil What's the joke?

Hate to admit it, but I love this movie. Don't know why so many are so down on it.

You are correct.

The original and best. 65 million years in the making. "They're flocking this way." Grant notices some running dinos look like a flock of birds. The dinos turn toward Grant and the two kids, and the boy utters this line. "Nice hat! What are ya tryin' to look like - a secret agent?" Dennis Nedry makes fun of the guy who meets him at an outdoor restaurant to give him $$ for the embryos. "I don't believe it! Hah! I don't believe it! You're supposed to come here and defend me against these characters and the only one I've got on my side is the bloodsucking lawyer!" John Hammond is upset. He brought the scientists to defend himself against the lawyer's skepticism, and all the scientists are skeptical while the lawyer sees dollar signs. "We can make it if we run." "No, we can't." "Why not?" "Because we are being hunted." "Oh God." "It's all right." "Like hell it is!" Exchange between Satler and the Raptor keeper on their way to the maintenance shed to try to get the power back on. "Spared no expense." Recurring line by Hammond.

It took a reallly, realllly, reeeeaaaaallllllly long time to bring this adventure to the screen.

Wow, is this that hard? Even easier: "Spared no expense."

Nope.

easier... "We can make it if we run." "No, we can't." "Why not?" "Because we are being hunted." "Oh God." "It's all right." "Like hell it is!"

It's the cheapest meal. They work just as hard to bring it to you. And they want to be there less than the lunch waitress or the dinner waitress. Why should the dinner waitress get a bigger tip just because your meal is more expensive and you're drunker? New Agey Rules of Life, some silly, some interesting. I don't subscribe to all this. I just googled the phrase "always overtip the breakfast waitress" and this came up. My dad taught me to overtip the breakfast waitress from when I was a knee-hi.

For any amount over $30, cutting out the last whole dollar and change, then multiplying by 2 will give you a tip between 15 and 20%. $39.99 cut out last digit and change (9.99) and you're left with the 3. Multiply that by two and you've left a $6 tip, almost precisely a 15% tip. $49.99 $8 tip, 51 cents above 15%. $99.99 $18 tip, where $14.99 (oh come on, $15) would be 15%. You'll never go under 15% on that principle. That means you really only have to remember three amounts: $1.50 tip for a $10 service. $3.00 for a $20 service $4.50 for a $30 service And I recommend going at least 50 cents over on each of those. ALWAYS overtip the breakfast waitress. Hear me? ALWAYS. (assuming service that's not utterly atrocious).

All right, I'm moving toward giveaway quotes now... "I don't believe it! Hah! I don't believe it! You're supposed to come here and defend me against these characters and the only one I've got on my side is the bloodsucking lawyer!"

Oui!

:) Nope. "Nice hat! What are ya tryin' to look like - a secret agent?"

Forgive me for being a drag, but I'd rather concentrate on preparing to turn my sweet princess into my queen. I was, however, thinking of getting rid of my cats and buying a bird instead. Anyone know where I can get one of those things you put birds in... what are they called again? I keep forgetting. Anyway... good pictionary. Hope I gave enough clues.

"They're flocking this way."

I GOT IT!!!!

Aww, sure you have. Moonstruck

That's why this is a spoiler thread, D. If you figure one out that I couldn't figure out, please let me (and the rest of us) know the reason behind the answer.

Honestly, I think if you paid attention to what TWI said and not what they did, you had to be able to leave with a fierce independent streak. The whole "most people don't think: they only think they think" attitude could have disarmed you and trapped you into the TWI mindset, or it could have liberated you. I think that's one of the reasons it was so hard for them to hold onto so many people once the more charismatic leader died. People tolerated stuff from Wierwille they never would tolerate from LCM because LCM wasn't the grandfatherly type Wierwille was. I also think that's part of the reason there's an attitude of "anyone who left before I did left too soon; anyone who left after I did stayed too long." You can't found a religion based on rebellion against authority and then expect no one to rebel against your religion. And TWI was a rebellious little cult. Your previous teachers can't be trusted. The Word and nothing but the Word! Yeah, but reject TWI on the same basis? Ha! They didn't see THAT one coming!

The Onion is 100% satire. 99.99% of quotes are fabricated. The rest are either made up or real quotes they're making fun of. Nothing is serious. Their headline after 9/11 (quite possibly their finest hour) was "Holy f-ing s***!"
