I've put people on my Ignore list for lesser infractions than that.

Watch yourself...or I'll send the cat after you.

[snailly]

13. This is Spinal Tap is the best movie ever made!

I love it! I've never actually seen it but I can feel the wonder and awesomeness of it seeping through my skin! What a wonder that the thought of this movie has changed my life so much! I love you scary toddler attacking cat. You are precious.

Leave me alone, scary cat!

[Dr. Strange]

17. You do well to fear the cat.

And this thing too. Whatever the hell it is.

[snailly]

20. LOL That really did make me LOL for once

Truce? :P

[Dr. Strange]

The In-Laws

[AlCzervik]

12. Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House. I love that movie! and it was so true!

and the dialog was so witty. That should be a must watch for anyone building/buying or thinking of a remodeling a house.

[Richardo]

15. The paint-matching scene alone is worth the price of .... well anything

Muriel Blandings: I want it to be a soft green, not as blue-green as a robin's egg, but not as yellow-green as daffodil buds. Now, the only sample I could get is a little too yellow, but don't let whoever does it go to the other extreme and get it too blue. It should just be a sort of grayish-yellow-green. Now, the dining room. I'd like yellow. Not just yellow; a very gay yellow. Something bright and sunshine-y. I tell you, Mr. PeDelford, if you'll send one of your men to the grocer for a pound of their best butter, and match that exactly, you can't go wrong! Now, this is the paper we're going to use in the hall. It's flowered, but I don't want the ceiling to match any of the colors of the flowers. There's some little dots in the background, and it's these dots I want you to match. Not the little greenish dot near the hollyhock leaf, but the little bluish dot between the rosebud and the delphinium blossom. Is that clear? Now the kitchen is to be white. Not a cold, antiseptic hospital white. A little warmer, but still, not to suggest any other color but white. Now for the powder room - in here - I want you to match this thread, and don't lose it. It's the only spool I have and I had an awful time finding it! As you can see, it's practically an apple red. Somewhere between a healthy winesap and an unripened Jonathan. Oh, excuse me...

Mr. PeDelford: You got that Charlie?

Charlie, Painter: Red, green, blue, yellow, white.

Mr. PeDelford: Check.

[AlCzervik]

21. i love that scene and the fact that she went to much trouble with her swatches

of material and deceptions. And-

"If you ain't eating Wham,
you ain't eating ham!"

[Richardo]

25. Finishing up with a 6" piece of thread....

:rofl:

"It's Mom's diary - and it's slightly torrid!"

[sarge43]

53. Like Charlie knows the difference between a hollyhock and delphinium. n/t

[Richardo]

78. "Somewhere between a healthy winesap and an unripened Jonathan."

:rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

76. Et voila!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRn59zNL0Ew

(Turn down your volume a tad. It's loud.)



Melvyn Douglas had a lot of great punch lines in that film.

Jim: "That's fine. For the rest of my life, I'll have to get up at 5 in the morning to catch the 6:15 train to get to my office at 8. It doesn't even open until 9, and I never get there until 10!"

Muriel: "Well, maybe if you start earlier, you can leave the office earlier."

Jim: "To get home earlier, to get to bed earlier, to get up earlier, I suppose."

Bill: "Maybe you can get the railroad to push the train up to 4:15. Then you won't have to go to bed at all."



And Myrna Loy could really deliver a dead-pan joke:

"In case of emergency, break glass."

[Richardo]

58. I agree with 9 of your picks,

some of the rest I haven't seen and some I just thought were 'meh.' But I would add to my own list, Mel Brook's "The Twelve Chairs." I realise it's obscure, and that one must understand something of a culture and a history to 'get it.' Nonetheless, for those who do 'get it,' it's a fuckin' hoot.

[Turbineguy]

50. I took my 12 year old

son to see the Birdcage, having no clue in advance what it was all about. While I was in line buying the tickets, people were looking at me kind of funny, but again, I failed to deduce the inference.

We both enjoyed the film immensely.

[NMDemDist2]

67. Nathan Lane should have gotten the Oscar for that performance n/t

[drmeow]

70. Galaxy Quest

Yeah! "Quick, let's leave before they kill Guy!" Just writing the line makes me laugh out loud!

[JoePhilly]

79. good list

[Lil Missy]

30. Tootsie!!!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Mad_Dem_X]
