Abrams/Zucker quotes not mentioned so far From _Top Secret!_: “Next Sunday! That’s Simchas Torah!” “It took us two hours to get the smile off of his face.” From _Kentucky Fried Movie_: “In case of emergency, comes equipped with Big John Slade.” From Coen brother movies not mentioned so far _Raising Arizona_ “Make it quick, I’m in a dutch with the wife.” _Oh Brother_ “We’re in a tight spot!” “R-U-N-O-F-F-T” “Dapper Dan Man!” _Fargo_ “He was kinda funny lookin’” “There a phone down here ya think?” Others: _Amadeus_: “Too many notes!” _Dracula_ (in a Bela Lugosi voice): “I never drink…wine” _My Blue Heaven_ “I don’t believe in tipping. I believe in overtipping.” And, a movie destined to be a cult movie which you all should see. It just came out on DVD: _Supertroopers_. It is really really funny, dumb humor. “License and registration, meow. Hurry it up meow.” ---
