You have good taste.
Yes, I really do. ;-D
(....thanks!...)
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I also can't believe how many lines of that movie are ingrained into my brain.
Man, no kidding. My girlfriends and I watched it obsessively. I figure I know so many of the lines b/c they took up the space that should have been taken up by high-school physics.
Another question: when was the last time you played a random game of volleyball? Who does that, like, ever, (outside of college)?
But what else were they going to do? Plus, pretty.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
But what else were they going to do?
Do what I do when I have free time: drink!

The sun's as warm as a ...baked potato
I'm trying to think of anything that tops Top Gun as an exemplar of the 80s, but I can't do it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have seen none of those movies. I am a bad child of the eighties.

You were born in the 80's. There's a difference.

Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller's Day Off - pretty much the John Hughes eighties ouevre, really.....

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Aimée is me on this, I think John Hughes WAS the 80s.
Of course, I remember more about the discussion Todd Field and Quentin Tarantino had concerning Top Gun than the movie itself.
