Graydog Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 I give the honor of providing the next quote to Red-Handed Jill in recognition of her naming Billy Bob Thorton as Davy Crockett in the Alamo. Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
blackjohn Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 It died again, didn't it? My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Graydog Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Yup, go ahead and list a quote. Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
blackjohn Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 In that case... Doc, he lies in his sack all day long, bores me silly with great, moronic plots against the captain. He's never carried out one of them. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Blackbead Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Wow . . . now there's one I haven't seen in a long time. What a great cast and what a timeless message - "Mister Roberts" "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
blackjohn Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Bingo! Glad you were able to get that one! It's a classic! Your turn! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Blackbead Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Ah-HAH! So, let's take another stab at it! "Now put your shirt on. You look much too naked for a decent English gentleman." What say ye, ye wild pack of sea dogs?!?!?! "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
Graydog Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 "The Black Swan" ? Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
Blackbead Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Well done, me hearty! "The Black Swan" it be! Well played! And so it be your turn, Graydog . . . "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
Graydog Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Thank ye me hearty. Har ye be: "Well, I've been to one world fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that's the stupidest thing I ever heard come over a set of earphones." Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
Blackbead Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Ahhh, Peter Sellers in three hilarious roles, Slim Picken's being Slim Pickens, and the looniest look on George C. Scott's Face I've ever seen. Are those clues enough to get another player playing?? "In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails, 'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life That raises our black flags."
Matusalem Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Sound like a movie that has "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here....this is the war room!"
Graydog Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Well good grief, everybody has it, they just won't say it! If this keeps up, you know what will happen? You'll have to answer to the Coca-Cola Company. Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
Misson Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Maybe they rode the bomb down by using Google to find the quote and don't want to take credit 'cuz they, er, "cheated"? "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Matusalem Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Maybe they rode the bomb down by using Google to find the quote and don't want to take credit 'cuz they, er, "cheated"? Mission, I know that movie too well. Dr. Strangelove (or How I learned to Love The Bomb). I think the most unforgettable and funniest scene is towards the end where Dr Srangelove (a.k.a. Muerkverdeglieben, or something like that) is attacked by his own hand since he suffers from a real medical malady called "alien hand syndrome". Moving on: " We have here in Louisiana what's known as the Napoleonic code"
Graydog Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Correct and your turn! Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!

Matusalem Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 QUOTE (Matusalem @ Nov 8 2007, 11:35 AM) Moving on: " We have here in Louisiana what's known as the Napoleonic code" hmmm... Streetcar named Desire, I think... Yep, double ration of rum for you Dorian....I guess I'm that unoriginal with these lines.
Dorian Lasseter Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Awww, no worries mate! Hmm... Here's a whole dialog... Person: Hello, Bomb? Are you with me? Bomb: Of course. Person: Are you willing to entertain a few concepts? Bomb: I am always receptive to suggestions. Person: Fine. Think about this then. How do you know you exist? Bomb: Well, of course I exist. Person: But how do you know you exist? Bomb: It is intuitively obvious. Person: Intuition is no proof. What concrete evidence do you have that you exist? Bomb: Hmmmm... well... I think, therefore I am. Person: That's good. That's very good. But how do you know that anything else exists? Bomb: My sensory apparatus reveals it to me. This is fun. Names are changed to protect the innocent... heh Truly, D.

Misson Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Is that from 2001? "I'm sorry, Dave. I can't do that." "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
Matusalem Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 HAL from 2001...as Mission suggests. But me own guess it would be from 'Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy'.

Dorian Lasseter Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I should have known Black John would get that one. Great movie if you've never seen it, great campy silliness... John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon's first movie I think, or one of their first. To think what they went on to do... Yer up John! Truly, D. Lasseter Captain, The Lucy Propria Virtute Audax --- In Hoc Signo Vinces Ni Feidir An Dubh A Chur Ina Bhan Air "If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me."

BriarRose slaps her forehead, "Ugh, I should have known that one when I looked at it last night cause I watched it with ya." Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. The Dimension of Time is only a doorway to open. A Time Traveler I am and a Lover of Delights whatever they may be. There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.
