From THE ALAMO (2004) - "If it was just me - plain and simple David from Tennessee - I just might drop over that wall one of these nights and take my chances.  But that Davy Crockett feller - they're always watching him.  And he's been on this wall every day  of  his life."

Funny and witty:

"Gentleman, you can't fight here - it's the war room!"
(Dr. Strangelove)


Funny:

Hamid: What's that?
Rambo: It's blue light.
Hamid: What does it do?
Rambo: It turns blue.

That one is even better in German. I'll file it under "profound" because a friend of my borther-in-law put that quote in his physics dissertation.

THE GODFATHER (1972)

Don Corleone (Marlon Brando): Tell me, do you spend time with your family?
Johnny Fontane (Al Martino): Sure I do.
Don Corleone: Good. Because a man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.


PAPILLON (1973)

Louis Dega (Dustin Hoffman): Blame is for God and small children.

"Broadsword calling Danny Boy"  WHERE EAGLES DARE (1968) 


Great film: I had the VHS for years and when I finally got the DVD, I realized I'd been watching half a movie for too long.  :smile:



I much prefer the book to the film. For frankly, I hate it, when they think they have to up the violence quota to make something better. The Sand Pebbles was the same way. A good film, which I liked, but more violent than the book. The only time I think death on film that was not in the book, made it better, was in the 1st season of Midsomer Murders, the 1st erpisode The Killings at Badger's Drift.

Norah: You know how some people like to eat at the same places?
Nick: Yeah.
Norah: Well Caroline likes to barf in the same places.

Agreed: the book had humor which was almost absent in the film: the same went for The Guns Of Navarone's book which had humor and all the main characters on the mission together, instead of one wanting to kill another "when the war's over".

Purely an accidently bit of insightfulness on his part. It's in the scene with Denny and Johnny on the rooftop where Denny says he loves Lisa.
