4. Glengarry Glen Ross used
fuck 138 times in 100 minutes. Scarface has it beat in pure numbers (207), but Glengarry wins in "fuck"s per minute (1.38 to 1.22).

Here's an interesting Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_that_most_frequently_use_the_word_%22fuck%22 :rofl:

9. Jarhead.

11. For most problems the Marine is issued a solution.
If ill, go to sickbay. If wounded, call a Corpsman. If dead, report to graves registration. If losing his mind, however, no standard solution exists.

12. I bet I know the one
with the most "fucks" in about 30 seconds: "The Paper."


"Well, I hope you're satisfied, asshole! You just blew your chance to cover the world!"

"Really? Well guess fucking what? I don't really fucking care! You wanna know fucking why? Because I don't fucking live in the fucking world! I live in fucking New York City! So GO FUCK YOURSELF!"

"You handled that well."

"Thank you."


:rofl:

I was going to say "Terminator 2", but that's not even on the Wikipedia list.
