“She’s into Malakas, Dino” _Weird Science_ “I kick ass for the lord!” _Dead Alive_ “Was she feeling alright last night?” “She felt fine to me” _Fletch Lives_ And 3 classics from that modern day Socrates, Wooderson. (_Dazed and Confused_) “Hey man, watch the leather! ahahahaha” “Say man, you got a joint” “No” 'It’d be a lot cooler if you did" “That’s what I like about high school girls. I keep gettin older, and they stay the same.” ---

Favourite movie lines? I’ve heard lines you people wouldn’t believe. If I go with one, I’ll regret it; maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon - and for the rest of my life. You want the truth? Posting ain’t much of a living. A thread like this has a hole, and you can never post enough or quote enough or have a long enough sig to ever fill it. I can do whatever I want, and so can you … but I never meant to hurt anybody. Time for one more story … one more story before twelve, just to keep us warm. I guess we won’t be leaving now, right? Good job I didn’t ask him to park the car. (Anyone guessing where all ten lines came from may award themselves a shiny brass button.) ---

In Ghostbusters: Bull Murray on finding Sigourney Weaver’s body possessed by the spirit of Zuul, the Gatekeeper, who is awaiting the arrival of a being called “Gozer, the Destructor”… “Are we still going out?” (Let’s just say that I can relate to his question.) ---
