Woody Allen?

Home Alone's polka king, if you know him, is a giveaway. For me, Burton Mercer (Jake Blues' parole officer) and "Ox" (from Stripes) were giveaways. As was the member of Parliament.

Correct. How could you forget THAT fight? The 3 major networks' news teams got ready, then the PBS team arrived, and finally the Spanish news- with Ben Stiller as their anchor. There was a guy on fire, and someone had a trident thrown into their chest, and so on.

No. (If you're curious, 3 names off that list are giveaways for me.)

If it was the pale moonlight, I'd say this was "BATMAN" (the Keaton/Nicholson one.) Otherwise, I don't know.

I'm sorry. In my family, that's a giveaway. I'll try again, same show. "Now this is all the money Niska gave us in advance. You bring it back to him, tell him the job didn't work out.... We're not thieves — well, we are thieves. Point is we're not takin' what's his. Now we'll stay out of his way the best we can from here on in. You explain that that's best for everyone, okay?" "Can you stop her from bein' so cheerful?" "I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful." "If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater." "Two by two. Hands of blue. Two by two."

I don't think we can recognize this from one line. -
Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard. The girls comb their hair in rear-view mirrors and the boys try to look so hard. The amusement park rises bold and stark, kids are huddled on the beach in a mist. I wanna die with you, Wendy, on the streets tonight in an everlasting kiss."

Who's turn.....it's MINE? Sorry about that, hang on....

Depending on the medium, it can be hard to convey that some characters are tough guys, etc, with some media making that harder than others. Possibly the lowest point for such an attempt was when the tough guys were wearing PINK UNIFORMS. This was especially confusing, because we'd seen them a number of times before (in one medium), and their uniforms were a LOT more butch than that, then, suddenly, they were pink. This correlates with seeing them in a different medium- and in this case, correlation was related to causation. (When we saw them later, in yet ANOTHER medium, the pink uniforms were neither seen again nor mentioned, although there were other changes...) Which tough guys wore them, and what the heck happened? (WHY were they wearing pink uniforms?) If you figure out the orders of the media, you'll probably have the answer already. But how many bad guys CAN be seen in three different media? (Technically, I've seen them in at least a fourth, but that's not really relevant to the question.) Obviously, the setting is pretty famous and popular.

Can we have another quote?

That was Don Adams in "Get Smart."

This movie has the odd distinction of winning the MTV Movie Award for "Best Fight" despite not being an action movie. That's not especially odd, but this movie is a COMEDY. Included as weapons in that specific fight were a HAND GRENADE, brass knuckles, a whip, a machete, and a TRIDENT. It was a 5-team melee, not a simple fist-fight (obviously), and those paying attention saw the use of a net, and a man on fire. One guy entered the fight smoking a pipe, which was not used as a weapon- someone threw him a machete before he ambushed another fighter getting too distracted before he tried to murder another. (Pretty SHARP machete, too- it took the guy's arm off with one chop.) It looked like it was going to be team-on-team, until the third team arrived....then the fourth team arrived....and finally the fifth team arrived, making it "a bilingual brouhaha", as someone from the fourth team put it. BTW, the number of teams was a plot point, especially with the first 3 teams. Amazingly, despite all that, there were actual, agreed-upon rules. "No touching of the hair and face." "Obviously." There was at least one guy killed, but his hair and face were left alone. Amazingly (or not, given that this was a comedy), the fight was interrupted by the cops arriving, but NOBODY was arrested in the movie, or even charged (despite weapons dropped at the scene, presumably leaving fingerprints behind.) -This movie's title was partly inspired by adult films. -One of the main characters seemed to have no redeeming qualities. However, he can, at least, play the flute rather well. -A restaurant appeared in this movie. The restaurant's name was in Spanish. "Escupimos En Su Alimento." Or, in English, "We Spit in Your Food."

In case there's any question, that means you are correct and it is your turn.

The original definitely had the line, and originated it. I'm not sure if it appeared in any other movies.

I feel better- I kept thinking this was the same song, and I was sure you wouldn't post the same song like that. -
