IIRC. Haven't seen it in a while.

You RC. But it's more than that, it's this beatifully wrought leather device thing... SO fucked up.

Yeah, the Scary Movies are good at the tension reduction. They're also much funnier high, like most such movies. Not Another Teen Movie also comes to mind.

negotiations with Layer Cake director Matthew Vaughn to direct and produce a screen version of Neil Gaiman’s Stardust

Wow. Layer Cake and Stardust seem very unalike on the surface of things, but I can see this combo working.

---

I need to watch it then cause when I'm alone in the bathroom at work, I hurry through my hand washing so the scary mask dude won't get me.

Just don't EVER go see Ju-on. That had me looking around nervously in a restaurant men's room afterwards, and it's very rare for me to be sufficiently creeped by a movie to get jittery outside the theater.

---

Just don't EVER go see Ju-on.

A WORLD of yes. And a couple days after I saw Ju-On, I was chatting with the security guards at work, standing behind their bank of CCTV monitors, and I got real twitchy - I couldn't look at the monitors, in case I'd see a shadowy thing, but I couldn't put my back to them either.

New topic: My old cow-orkers have challenged me to come up with the Top 10 movie quotes (to compare against AFI's Top 100 movie quotes). My first reaction, in no order (I'll look up exact wordings later):

"Rosebud"

"Of all the gin joints in all the world..."

"This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship"

"Scarlet, I don't give a damn"

"No matter where you go, there you are"

"I've got a bad feeling about this"

"E.T. Phone Home"

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning"

Hmmm...running out of steam. Not running out of quotes, just running out of quotes that people other than myself use regularly.

---

"Scarlet, I don't give a damn"

Not to be rude/nitpicky, but it's "Frankly." I'll be in bed if you need me for headsmackins.

ETA something more important and on-topic: "My god--it's full of stars!"

---

Hmmm...running out of steam. Not running out of quotes, just running out of quotes that people other than myself use regularly.

How about:

"Take your filthy paws off me you damned, dirty ape!"

---

Not to be rude/nitpicky, but it's "Frankly."

Yeah, like I said, I'll look up the exact wordings later.

quotes that people other than myself use regularly

"You're gonna need a bigger boat."

and

"This was no boating accident."

"The stuff that dreams are made of."

"Houston, we have a problem." (Although I always hear it in the original as "we've had a problem," and the quote was widespread long before it was used in a movie.)

"I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."

"Make my day."

"I'll be back."

"I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."

"We're off to see the wizard!"

"Follow the Yellow Brick Road."

"Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!" Not so much the animals, but when a set of three keeps coming up, someone often chimes in with a concluding "Oh, my."

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."

"Really most sincerely dead."

"A Horse of a Different Color."

"If [he] only had a brain."

---

Ooo! Good ones!

I'm trying to decide if "Play it again, Sam" should be in the list, since it's not the actual quote.

I've added:

""Wax on, wax off.""

"Show me the money"

"Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!"

And per my DH's advice, am striking "I've got a bad feeling about this" and replacing it with "May the Force be with you."

I think Casablanca may be the most-quoted movie ever, as I'm wondering if "Round up the usual suspects" makes the list. We use "Show her in" a lot, but that's a job thing; consular officers and local staff tend to refer to attractive female visa applicants as "show-her-ins."

---

"Nobody's perfect."

"If you build it, they will come."

"We're not worthy!"

"They're digging in the wrong place!"

Okay that last one could just be me.
