"De-crucify the angel!"

"What?"

"De-crucify him or I'll melt your face!"

Ok, the posters older than me and Raf should be able to figure this one out now.

Or any trivia buffs who know where a certain 80s band got their name.

"Barbarella"?

That's it.

You either got it by recognizing Durand Durand and an angel, or eliminated possibilities

by saying "science fiction movie, older than the Star Wars Trilogy or thereabouts,

with an angel, a female protagonist, and not a lot of concern for her wearing her uniform.

I was cruising Wikiquote for ideas and saw that name, and I was pretty sure we'd never done this movie.

For those curious about the movie, just find a summary of the story. It's really not worth sitting down

to watch it if it's in front of you. (I wouldn't, anyway.)

It was the crucified angel that triggered the memory, and then the Duran Duran reference. You're right, though. Other than a young, occasionally naked Jane Fonda, there's not a lot to recommend the film.

"Exactly."

"How do you know you're God?"

"Simple. When I pray to Him, I find I am talking to myself."

"I was only trying to do what's expected me. I recall as a sign of normalcy in our circle to slaughter anything that moves."

"I can't marry a second time."

"You're already married?"

"August 28, in the year of Me, 1964."

Nope.

"His lordship is a paranoid schizophrenic."

"Paranoid schizophrenic? But he's a Gurney!"

"Then he's a paranoid schizophrenic Gurney who believes he's God."

"But we've always been Church of England!"

"What about Jack?"

"Remember he's suffering from delusions of grandeur. In reality he's an earl, an English aristocrat, a member of the ruling class. Naturally, he's come to believe there's only one person grander than that: the Lord God Almighty Himself."

"Are you English?"

"No."

"[slowly] Ah."

"How do you know you're God?"

"Simple. When I pray to Him, I find I am talking to myself."

Free post huh? OK.

Realize detective, the only reason that I'm here right now is that I wanted to be.

No, no, we would have got you eventually.

Oh really? So, what were you doing? Biding your time? Toying with me? Allowing five innocent people to die until you felt like springing your trap? Tell me, what was the indisputable evidence you were going to use on me right before I walked up to you and put my hands in the air?

You're no messiah. You're a movie of the week. You're a fricking t-shirt, at best.
