Name that Flick

"How do you think the Yankees will do against the Redskins this year?"

"The Yankees are a baseball team. The Redskins are a football team.

Personally, I think the Redskins would kick the sh* out of them."

[Tom Strange]

WW, that's from one of the best (IMO) movies ever made... but I'll give someone else a chance to answer...

(of course, I think "Stripes" was highly under rated as well)

[topoftheworld]

Can't answer the movie question, but I agree with Tom about Stripes. The graduation scee is one of my all time favorites-"Jumps over the lazy dog...Sir!"

"I was the weapon-but I ain't no killer."

"I'd rather die than go back there!"

WW... why didn't this movie win any major awards? (at least none that I can remember)... There was some very excellent acting... and it was a great story... (it was a true story IIRC)

Some people felt the story straightjacketed the reader and pushed one viewpoint.

I thought it was worth watching and RE-watching, but I wouldn't have

nominated it for any awards. (I'm hard on most nominations.)

Now, how about naming the movie so we can move on?

[Tom Strange]

It was Murder in the First

...with outstanding performances by Kevin Bacon, Christian Slater and Gary Oldman.

...especially Kevin Bacon (IMO)

[WordWolf]

Correct, as you knew!

And Kevin Bacon was also in... no, wait, nevermind.

Your turn again.

[Tom Strange]

here's one:

Sometimes I think, I think all three of us got in that car...

[topoftheworld]

Mystic River

Mentioning Kevin Bacon made it an easy connect.

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!

[Tom Strange]

...and that's what I was going for! :)

...now go post the answer to the pictionary thread...

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Dr. Strangelove"?

George

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Since I'm certain that it was "Dr. Stranglove," I pose this one:

My way is not very sportsmanlike!

George

[WordWolf]

I was also sure it was "How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb."

Meanwhile,

yours is THE PRINCESS BRIDE.

Fezzik's way was to bash the guy with a rock, supposedly.

"Giant, kill him your way!"

"What is my way?"

"Hide behind a boulder, and when he comes by, bash his skull in with a large rock!"

"Mmm. My way is not very sportsmanlike."

One of my favorite lines. You are correct, WW.

"How many husbands have you had?"

"Mine or other women's?"

"Yours."

"Five."

"Five?"

"Yes, just the five. Husbands should be like Kleenex: soft, strong and disposable."

"You lure men to their deaths like a spider with flies."

"Flies are where men are most vulnerable."

"And are you the host?"

"Me, sir? No. I'm just the humble butler."

"And what exactly is it you do here?"

"I buttle, sir."

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Clue"?

George

[WordWolf]

Correct!

I figured I wasn't the only one who thought that the "buttling"

comment was worth remembering!

Go, George.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I wasn't sure. It just seemed like a Tim Curry line.

I fought for two days with an arrow through my testicle!

George

[topoftheworld]

That must of hurt, George.

So what's the movie line?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I knew someone was going to make a comment like that.

That IS, if course, the movie line.

George

[Suda]

Kingdom of Heaven?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Correct!
