We first HEARD of Yoda on Hoth when Luke was freezing and Obi-Wan spoke to him. We first SAW Yoda on Dagobah. Hoth and Dagobah first appear in "Empire." In SW, we had Tattooine, the Death Star, a Star Destroyer, and Yavin 4. But this one IS "Dune."

I have 2 short quotes for the price of one.... "My name is a killing word." "The spice must flow."

"You're lucky he didn't kill you, too. Or rape you, then kill you. Or kill you, then rape you." "I warn you I get sick. Car sick, air sick. And I'm going to throw up all over *you*." "Go for it. Won't show on this shirt..." "Me and my big mouth. We should have taken the trip to Hawaii." "I had the shirt for it, but you f***ed it up." "Mr. Spock, you have the com." "Who is Mr. Spock?" "Hi, cutie pie. You know one of us is in deep trouble. You know who I am?" "I've seen you before. You're the @$$hole on TV." "That's funny. I was going to say the same thing about you." "You bastard! Drop dead!" "I don't do requests." "Don't touch that dial!" "The Justice Department's calling every ten minutes." "Just give them an evasive answer. Tell them to go f* themselves."

BZZT! George, that's not "Star Wars". (aka Episode 4-A New Hope.) That was Yoda's famous line, which makes this Episode 5-The Empire Strikes Back.....

That's not it. (And it's not close, either.)

"Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine."

If that's not from "Dead Poets Society", it should be.

*hums "Axel F" * This is from "Beverly Hills Cop", when Axel Foley was trying to check in to the Beverly Palm Hotel with no reservation.

He also told some corps to quit smoking so they could use the money for cigarettes to spend on their corps tuition...while continuing to chain-smoke.

Yes. You've pointed out quite a few similarities. However, the Amish are VERY different in certain things. A) They encourage their young to see the outside world and decide for themselves if they prefer the world of the Amish. (They look around, and some leave and some stay.) B) The Amish AVOID technology. twi is afraid of new technology, but uses outdated stuff they understand just fine. C) The Amish avoid violence or even the suggestion of violence. Harsh words are avoided. twi people bluster and threaten violence as if self-control was evil. D) The Amish work toward the GENERAL good. The whole community will work together to raise a barn on a farm. In twi, all resources are bent towards helping twi and never the average member on the field.

Indeed! "BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW THE TERRITORY!" A complaint about "Professor" Harold Hill among the travelong salesmen, "Shipoopi!" "A girl that's hard to get!" A musical number featuring BUDDY HACKETT singing and dancing. "HE DON'T KNOW ONE NOTE FROM ANOTHER! Another complaint about Hill at the beginning. "When a woman's got a husband, and you've got none, why should she take advice from you? Even if you can quote Balzac and Shakespeare and all them other high-falutin' Greeks." IIRC, the librarian's Mom was reminding the librarian that it is good to have standards. but standards don't keep you warm at night, and she might have set her sights too high so that NO man could match up to them. That was Shirley Jones, and her little brother was played by RON HOWARD. (IIRC, there was a moment once in Happy Days where Marion said once how the boy in the original musical looked like Richie. :) Hermionie Gingold also appears in it. The casting choices were pretty eccentric- except for Preston reprising his role from the musical.

Yes, indeed. I've seen people using this as an online signature, sometimes with images, and sometimes with animated GIFs.

At some point or another, you've probably seen this movie.

"Yes, but why is the rum gone?"

BTW, can we dispense with the "include the names of the characters" thing until at least the first 2 quotes drew blanks from the audience? I could have gotten that one from the characters OR the quotes, that time. ============================= "BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW THE TERRITORY!" "Shipoopi!" "A girl that's hard to get!"

"How did Cronauer's voice get on there?" This is "GOOD MORNING VIETNAM!!!"

"ARMY TRAINING SIR!" This is obviously THE scene from "Stripes."

lcm didn't do it on purpose- he just didn't care. He was taught by vpw (approximately) that whatever fool thought passed through the head of the man on the throne was anointed by Gawd Almighty no matter how silly or stupid that thought was. So, lcm just spewed them out without polishing or any kind of quality control. vpw knew he himself was a fraud- and calculated the best words to appeal to each audience. In public, that meant not cursing. (Once the cameras were off, he indulged himself-in every sense of the word.) So, in private, "closed" meetings, vpw could have a filthy mouth and/or be verbally abusive, but when the cameras and microphones were on, he was a sweet grandfatherly sort. So, lcm just spewed all sorts of curses no matter who was around because he didn't care, and if anyone DID care (not him), he considered the fault to be THEIRS, since he was immune to making mistakes. So if they were offended by something, it's not because he was offensive and violated good taste- it was because the other person was oversensitive, carnal, and needed to renew their mind. Once lcm ran off everyone who was unwilling to bow their knee to his image, the remaining "leaders" aped him in all sorts of ways, growing facial hair when he did, carrying a briefcase when he did, and indulging in immature screaming and filthy language whenever they wished rather than exercising self-control because that was lcm's style. They would have followed him off a cliff if he'd have jumped first.

One of the biggest Lies from Hell TWI and (some?) Offshoots Perpetrated
WordWolf replied to Tzaia's topic in About The Way
The account in Acts 9 is a "this is what happened" account. The account in Acts 22 is a "this is how Paul recounted it" account. They say MOSTLY the same thing. Is it possible Paul's recounting might have been off? Is it possible we can move on? I'm still wondering if we all were beginning with the same premise, but expressing it in radically different ways. -
lcm said often that if you didn't give AT LEAST 10%, God wouldn't even SPIT in your direction. (Never explained why this was a desired result.) In twi, we had freedom from the world outside twi, but eventually, one restraint after another descended FROM twi. We were required to give protection money to God- 10% or something bad would happen to us and family. We were required to give time- or be disobedient, and something bad would happen to us and family. (One person hesitated and a family member died at the time- it happens, people die and we can't stop that- and someone in leadership held that over their head and asked which family member they wanted to drop dead the next time they didn't jump when he said so.) Eventually, it looks like it's safer to be disobedient to God and just be a bad Christian. To be a twi Christian means that God, the devil AND twi are ready to inflict things on you. Of course, those of us who survived twi thrived once we recovered from the experience.
