I didn't mean to come down so hard. It's just that in the "Nostalgia Thread," it was common for responders to give wry hints which showed that they knew the answer, without really giving it away while others were guessing. In this thread, the answer is supposed to be so obvious that that's not necessary!

Human without the bean
Hello, Mr.Wolf, I'd like you to meet my wife Mrs. Human. She's loves those movies.

But you are right, perhaps this should be a movie mashup clue. but I would get this movie from one line, lol.

The Wizard of Oz.
Defying thread disdain, I will nostalgically state infatically, irrevocably, and undeniably that the munchkin coroner had the goods on the www.
I lost the jesuit hoyle book of play, but foo - I digress.

Where's my gingo biloba when I need it?
Seems I can't keep these goofy threads straight long enuf to post on the right ones...
The above quote, hint, answer, (rolled into one) should've been on the TV thread...sheesh.
TW3 was a great show...so good that it didn't last but a season...but it inspired my early career choice alot.
How 'bout this as a replacement?

Funny, when I saw "That Was the Week That Was," all I could think of was the short-lived TV show. No wonder I couldn't think of it as a movie line.

Okay - this thread has sat idle for a while now. I hope no one minds, but I'm going to post a new clue:
"That rabbit's got a mean streak a mile wide!"
Oh... I just saw the last clue "Jaws"?
Yea - I"m being rebellious.

In the Heat of the Night, Virgil.
"I am sick of your foul language,your crude behaviour and your sluttish manner;
there are certain things a decent woman keeps private, and only a filthy slut
would have done this and those who stood by and encouraged her are just as bad.
I don't care who's reponsible - you're all to blame..."
