Thanks Rhun, I must have missed that in the flurry of activity in this thread. Maybe we'll be up to 2k by the time JA gets back

Quite possible. Though hopefully he gets back sooner than that!

Hey DeWar movie quote for you:

Upon being offered a reward for services rendered to the government:

I want peace on earth and good will toward men.

We are the United States Government. We don't do that sort of thing.

Movie: Armageddon at the scene where billy bob thornton and bruce willis are disscussing the terms of payment for destroying the killer asteroid that is on a collision course with earth. right?

I believe you are incorrect:

Don't click unless you want the answer

Bernard Abbott: Are we done here?
Bishop: Not yet. Whistler?
Whistler: I want peace on earth and good will toward man.
Bernard Abbott: Oh, this is ridiculous.
Bishop: He's serious.
Whistler: I want peace on earth and goodwill toward men.
Bernard Abbott: We're the United States Government! We don't do that sort of thing.
Bishop: You're just gonna have to try.
Bernard Abbott: All right, I'll see what I can do.
Whistler: Thank you very much. That's all I ask.

renau1g has the right movie, though I suppose there could be a similar scene in Armageddon.

If you haven't seen Sneakers I recommend it as a smart funny bit of fluff. I guess the tech is getting a little dated now, but it holds up pretty well.

I love Sneakers. It came out shortly after I had my first (long term) job working at the movie theater. I remember screening it after hours. Good times.

Great cast too. Comedy/Drama movies like this can easily stray too far into camp for my tastes. This one manages to have a little goofyness without crossing that line. I'm thinking of movies like Hudson Hawk that become bad cartoons.

Whattaya mean??? I love Hudson Hawk! Danny Aiello is GREAT!

 

[Scotley]

He is great, I even like Bruce Willis, but there are a few places where that movie just goes too far into cartoonishness for my tastes.

Would you like to wish on a star? Carry moonbeams home in a jar?... or would you rather be a Leif?
