But what is it that makes people randomly begin quoting from pop culture references once one is simply mentioned?
I like to sprinkle source code and internal technical documentation with gratuitous pop culture references (at least 20 years old) and American idioms. So when my company finally gets rid of all the US workers and everything is supported in China and India, they'll have something to "WTF?" about.

Rhys-Davies used to be a radical leftist, as a university student in the '60s.

Arthur Jensen: You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale, and I won't have it. You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples. There are no nations; there are no peoples. There are no Russians. There are no Arabs. There is no third world. There is no west. There is only one holistic system of systems; one vast interwoven, interacting, multivariate multinational dominion of dollars. Petrodollars, electrodollars, reichmarks, rubles, rin, pounds and shekels. It is the international system of currency that determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic, subatomic and galactic structure of things today. It is the international system of currency that determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things. You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and you will atone! Am I getting through to you, Mr. Beale? You get up on your little twenty-one inch screen and howl about America and Democracy. There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only IBM and ITT and AT &T and Dupont, Dow, Union Carbide and Exxon. Those are the nations of the world today. What do you think the Russians talk about in their councils of state? Karl Marx? They pull out their linear programming charts, statistical decision theories, and minimax solutions and compute the price-cost probabilities of their transactions and investments just like we do. We no longer live in a world of nations and ideologies, Mr. Beale. The world is a college of corporations inexorably determined by the immutable by-laws of business. The world is a business, Mr. Beale! It has been since man crawled out of the slime. And our children will live to see that perfect world in which there is no war or famine, oppression or brutality. One vast and ecumenical holding company for whom all men will work to serve a common profit and in which all men will own a share of stock, all necessities provided, all anxieties tranquilized, all boredom amused. And I have chosen you to preach this evangel.

Arthur Jensen: Because you're on television, dummy.

The local radio movie review show plays that sound clip all the time. Where does it come from?
Another clip he uses is, "Alright, ramblers, let's ramble." Don't get that one, either.

Uh . . . can't help you with that one. Too lazy to Google it.
If you mean, "All right Ramblers, let's get ramblin' . . ." then it's from Reservoir Dogs.

I thought it was from Dusk Til Dawn, when Clooney kidnaps the preacher and kiddos.
I could be wrong, it's been about 8 years since I've seen Reservoir Dogs. I definitely don't hear Clooney's voice when I read those words, though. It sounds more like that guy who played Joe in from Reservoir dogs.
Both being Tarantino films, it could very well be in both. It's been a lot longer since I've seen Dusk till dawn though and I just don't remember much of it.
Definitely in DtD. 30 minutes in, when Juliette Lewis comes out of the bathroom, when Clooney/Tarantino kidnap them at the hotel. Just confirmed via Netflix.
I saw DtD before I saw Reservoir Dogs, even though RD came out 4 years before DtD. So I associate it with DtD first somehow.
It would appear then that we are both right. Scroll to the end of this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-qV9wVGb38&feature=related

I'm talking about the fellow in red and white Brit army uniform, standing to Bean's right. The guy who tells him he must have a second.
Actually, Sharpe refused a second. =)
I thought Atterton being there was really interesting, since the duel is so similar to the one in Firefly.

Annoyed? Really?
She was not seeking death, nor was she afraid. Resigned to a certain fate, perhaps. (As she commented on, before) She realized, after Meriadoc stabbed him with a blade of the west, that she could perhaps kill him. It was a leap of faith, and a moment of certainty.

NERD FIGHT !!!!!
:P :P :P
"Don’t touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn’t understand things with alloys and compositions and things with… molecular structures."
And you are commenting on the movie. The book made it clear she was explicitly seeking death. Merry even comments on it while they are riding to Gondor. When at Gondor, the Nazgul landed and tried to threaten her for being to stupid as to attack him for no living man could kill him.It is tough to make that work when they use CGI to make these huge super strong bad guys with 500 lb maces or giant swords.
She laughs in his face, removes her helmet and delivers "But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund’s daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him." The Witch King of Angmar is the one who is afraid even if just for a moment as he now has doubt.
The movie version made her weak and afraid while fighting him. She should have been (effectively) a viking woman, a valkyrie of types. She gloried in battle. In the movie, she only taunted him when he was about to die. Yeah, still a good line, but the entire context and importance of the line is lost.
When she awakes inside of Gondor, she is depressed because she didn't die. (And because Aragorn chose Arwen and not her, which is why she wanted to die in the first place.)
"If it's all the same, I'd like to ride along, too."
"Yes, ma'am. Got a kid and a dog, why not a woman?"

"Say it once, say it twice. Take a chance and roll the dice. Ride with the moon in the dead of night."

2nd Reporter: And you feel this might be an American trait?
Theodore Roosevelt: Certainly. The world will never love us. They respect us - they might even grow to fear us. But they will never love us, for we have too much audacity! And, we're a bit blind and reckless at times too.

My engine's on fire! Can you believe that? And I was in such a good mood!
"Always"
Is that where that line is from? :facepalm:
I hated that movie. =( The only good part was the opening scene with the PBY and the two guys fishing in the boat.
I was one of the three guys who really liked that movie.
"Always"
Never heard of it. I guess it couldn't be much good, since Dreyfuss is in it.
I liked it.
Is Richard Dreyfuss still alive?
Does anyone know which famous actor made their final film appearance in that movie?
House Jameson? [tinfoil]
Is Richard Dreyfuss still alive?
Nope. Slightly younger and much sexier.
:O You actually KNOW who House Jameson was? :laugh:

Audrey Hepburn
Thanks! I forgot about her playing the angel to Richard Dreyfus in the movie.
I liked it.Four, then. Me too. Goodman made the show.
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the LORD when I lay My vengeance upon thee."

(Incidentally, Cumberbatch's voice was a very good choice for that part.)
True...he was a great villain....but he was no Khan. Montalban was the kind of villain you liked & hated simultaneously. Cumberbatch was pure psycho....

He did a perfectly acceptable Khan Noonien Singh. So did Montalban, who created the original in 1967. I think Montalban is a tad long in the tooth to reprise the role in this last film ... in fact he may have died before it was made IIRC.
"Cumberbatch was pure psycho...."
The original Khan was hardly a choirboy ...... [popcorn]
But Montalban's Khan was the kind of charasmatic villain that men admired and women swooned over....until he tried to kill you, of course.
Cumberbatch's Khan was just scary psycho. He's the kind that you'd just shoot first....with photon torpedoes....from a long way away...

I don't really think psycho, he didn't seem crazy to me. He was like an evil genius mastermind, and calm and patient until it was time to crush your skull with his bare hands then he would bring down the furry of a thousand suns to crush you.
I wore this frock coat in Washington, before the war. We wore them because we belonged to the Five Civilized Tribes. We dressed ourself up like Abraham Lincoln. You know, we got to see the Secretary of the Interior. He said, Boy! You boys sure look civilized! He congratulated us, and he gave us medals for looking so civilized. We told him about how our land had been stolen. Our people were dying. When we finished, he shook our hands and said, Endeavor to persevere. They stood us in a lineJohn Jumper, Junior McIntosh, Buffalo Hump, Jim Pockmark, and me. Im Lone Watie.
They took our pictures, and the newspapers said, Indians Vow to Endeavor to Persevere. We thought about it for a long time. Endeavor to persevere. And when we had thought about it long enough, we declared war on the Union.

Loved that show.:laugh: nice.
A friend of mine was at that point dating the woman he would eventually marry. On weekends they'd often go for a drive in the countryside. Now, he loved SLEDGE HAMMER but she couldn't stand the show. About the time she thought he'd gotten lost in the back-country she'd ask him if he knew where they were, and he replied with Sledge's famous line; "trust me, I know what I'm doing."
But they actually did get married. She must have been the forgiving type. :angel:

I wonder what was going through Custer's mind when he realized that he'd led his men into a slaughter?
Sir, Custer was a pussy. You ain't.
Do you think Custer realized he'd run out of "luck?" It's possible he was shot priot to such a realization being possible....
Plus, "losing" was not in his vocabulary.

Silent Night with Linda Hamilton is our family tradition Christmas movie. It tells the story of three American soldiers from the 121st Infantry, 8th Infantry Division that struck a private truce for Christmas with four German soldiers and a German Family (mother and son) in their cabin in the woods during the 1944 Battle of the Hurtgen Forest/Battle of the Bulge. Since I served in 8ID, seeing the shoulder patch of my division (which was de-activated in 1992), brings tears to my eyes.
Shoot. I had not heard of the movie before and thought I might get lucky streaming it. Not available on Netflix, even on DVD, nor Amazon or Hulu for streaming. Maybe I'll just order the DVD from Amazon and watch it late, or else make a calendar note to get it for next year.

Yeah. You're right, CJ. That's a lot of homophobia coming out of a very angry man. You need to go get that looked at by a trained professional. But, since you have escalated this whole scenario by bringing what I can only assume is an unlicensed firearm into this public place, endangering the lives of all these innocent people, I can no longer, in good conscience, walk away and jerk anyone off in the parking lot.
