Best Of Theme Week - Part III

Jeremy’s Sametime Status Proudly Presents: Movie Quote Week! Name the movie (Difficult): "Handle him with kid gloves. Put him to work writing poetry. No, no, we don't want him. Just stall him along 'til the Extra's out. Then tell him his poetry smells and kick him down the stairs."



Oh, who doesn’t love movie quotes? Most of us have a couple of movies we can recite off the top of our head, and everybody can place certain quotes with the movie they refer to roughly instantly. For example:

“Don’t cross the streams.”
“Use the Force”
“Have fun storming the castle!”

Here at Jeremy’s Sametime Status, as is often the case, we took things a step or two further. This Theme Week from 2006 found quotes from movies that are a little more obscure, though no less important. We used a quote from “Plan 9 From Outer Space,” which is widely regarded as the worst movie ever made. We used one from “The Player,” which is my personal favourite film, and this one, from what is often described as the fastest film ever made. The rate of dialogue in this picture is startling and often incomprehensible as characters talk over each other as breakneck speed. All you have to do is name the film. You have until next monday. I highly recommend you also watch the picture if you get a chance. It’s really quite good.
