There he sits, in his new alien form, crafting small trinkets for his wife, while he awaits the "prawns" return three years hence.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

He starts to choke, stands up, turns around and falls backward onto the lunch counter.  As the embryonic alien creature tears out of his chest, he cries,"Oh no, not again!"

Whammy Burger stopped serving breakfast 3 minutes ago.  

Things just get better from there.....
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

It's the secret command for a lot of things, but does not work when River is in asskicking mode....

He kills the British major responsible for his sons' deaths and so much of his heartache....
Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

Check, please!
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

The T. Rex eats the lawyer sitting on the toilet in the restroom.
and everyone in the theater cheered (Really, they did).
Cheers broke out in the theater when the blue ray from the alien spacecraft destroyed the White House, too . . . this was during the Clinton Administration.  =D  (BTW, the aliens were defeated by the one-two punch of an alien virus uploaded from an Apple laptop and a nuke delivered to the control room of the mother ship by an extra alien fighter ship we'd recovered & studied at Area 51.)
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Nathan Fillion's Private Ryan was not the Private Ryan they were looking for.
The "All my brothers are dead?" guy was Nathan Fillion?  LOL Now I need to rewatch that.
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

I like spoilers.  If a movie has a crappy ending I won't waste money on going to the theater to see it.

Speaking of crappy endings: Vader gets turned to the dark side, gets rocked by Obi-wan, Yoda fails to kill the emperor and Jar-Jar doesn't get killed. Oh, and Natalie Portman dies.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Now you tell me  =D.  I got all but the last two from the two good movies.  I went to the theater for the 1st prequel.  I rented the rest.  If another movie is done I'll wait for it to come on tv.   I would have gone to the theater for the last one if I Jar-Jar had been killed.

Jar jar should be killer, if you notice, he is personally responsible for creating the empire.  First, he calls for the vote of no confidence, then the vote for emergency powers...bastard is, other than the freakin emperor, the one most directly responsible.

Sean and Will have a big fistfight and become great buddies.  Mary Kate doesn't get spanked (in this movie).
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin
