beatbo Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I have to agree with you. "IAMMMMW" is truely the GREATEST comedy of all time. With such an all star line up of comedians, there will never be another comedy of such weight. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Melville Crump: The man said there was a certain amount of money buried down in this park. Lennie Pike: That's right. It was under a big W. Say what is a big W? Ding Bell: If we find out, we'll send you a wire. Melville Crump: It's only a possibility now, it's only a possibility that this man was telling the truth. And if it was the truth, then it is a fact that this place is almost 200 miles away. Now I suggest that we quietly get into our cars and drive down there at a safe, sound speed, keeping each other in sight of each other. And then when we get down there, we dig up the money - providing there is some money there. And if we do find it, we share it amongst us in a simple manner. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ding Bell: Ah, this is hopeless. We're gonna get *noplace* if we're gonna continue listening to *this* old bag. Benjy Benjamin: What are you trying to do, lady? You trying to split us up so it becomes every man for *himself*? Ding Bell: ...And every woman for HIMself? Mrs. Marcus: One more funny remark from you, buster... Benjy Benjamin: Now look! We've figured it seventeen different ways, and each time we figured it, it was no good, because no matter how we figured it, somebody don't like the way we figured it! So now, there's only one way to figure it. And that is, every man, including the old bag, for himself! Ding Bell: So good luck, and may the best man *win*! Benjy Benjamin: Except you lady: may *you* just *drop dead*! Lennie Pike: All right, we all agree on that. Now look, let's be sensible about this. There's money in this for all of us. Right? There's enough for you, and there's enough for you, and for you, and there's enough for... [they all race to their cars] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- J. Russell Finch: You want me to tell you something? As far as I'm concerned the whole British race is practically finished. If it hadn't been for lend-lease. If we hadn't have kept your whole country afloat by giving you billions that you never even said "Thank you" for, the whole phony outfit would be sunk right under the Atlantic years ago. [Hawthorne screeches to a stop] J. Russell Finch: What are you stopping for? J. Algernon Hawthorne: Get out of this machine. J. Russell Finch: Get out? You can't... J. Algernon Hawthorne: It's my machine, I will do as I bloody well please. Out! J. Russell Finch: I'm awfully sorry. I've been very edgy today and if I said anything about England, I apologize. J. Algernon Hawthorne: Glad to hear you say so. J. Algernon Hawthorne: I must say that if I had the grievous misfortune to be a citizen of this benighted country, I should be the most hesitant of offering any criticism whatever of any other. J. Russell Finch: Wait a minute, are you knocking this country? Are you saying something against America? J. Algernon Hawthorne: Against it? I should be positively astounded to hear anything that could be said FOR it. Why the whole bloody place is the most unspeakable matriarchy in the whole history of civilization! Look at yourself! The way your wife and her strumpet of a mother push you through the hoop! As far as I can see, American men have been totally emasculated- they're like slaves! They die like flies from coronary thrombosis while their women sit under hairdryers eating chocolates & arranging for every 2nd Tuesday to be some sort of Mother's Day! And this infantile preoccupation with bosoms. In all time in this Godforsaken country, the one thing that has appalled me most of all this this prepostrous preoccupation with bosoms. Don't you realize they have become the dominant theme in American culture: in literature, advertising and all fields of entertainment and everything. I'll wager you anything you like that if American women stopped wearing brassieres, your whole national economy would collapse overnight. wow.

Mernie Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I love Night Shift with Michael Keaton and Henry Winkler, and Arthur with Dudley Moore. I think Ace Ventura is one of Jim Carrey's funniest movies (Dumb & Dumber already mentioned). Some people don't care for Spaceballs (Mel Brooks) but I think it's absolutely hilarious. Meet the Parents and Knocked Up also great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
