Browsing the channels this eve and noted that Indiana Jones - Raiders of the Lost Ark is on and made me think of one of my favourite quotes. It’s actually from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and it’s when he looks at Willie through the hole in the enclosing cave with such a look of fear / urgency / what-the-hell-are-you-doing-woman and says “we…are going…to die!”

tickles me every time!

I know a pissed horse when I see one…..from Phoenix Nights.
I know it’s a comedy series, not a film, but I think it’s just a classic funny line.

”ruphrect will love Oklahoma, he loves to run and run”

“Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”

The Princess Bride - Mandy Patinkin plays an amazing part.

No no, I'm from Iowa. I only work in outer space

merryhouse · 08/09/2024 10:28

There’s a great meme about networking for this - introduce yourself, share a fact you have in common, and set expectations 😅

"That rug really tied the room together, did it not?"
The Big Lebowski.

"Obviously you're not a golfer."
The Big Lebowski

"Do you have to use so many cuss words?"
"What the fuck you talking about?"
The Big Lebowski

"You're not wrong Walter. You're just an asshole."
The Big Lebowski

(I swear it's the most quotable film ever)

Oh! Now I know why, when we were in IKEA shopping for uni supplies for DS, he insisted on buying a rug saying it would really tie the room together!

'With all the unrest in the world, I don't think anyone should have a yacht that sleeps more than twelve'

“I wrote it down in my diary so I wouldn’t HAVE to remember!”
Sean Connery in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

(When somebody expects me to remember some obscure fact)

Or
”A llama?.. He’s supposed to be dead!”
When something doesn’t quite go according to plan.
The Emperor’s New Groove is very quotable.
