I was thinking of movies that I quote all the time. My family is a quoting family - we watch a movie and something random will stick in our minds and we quote it all the time. Other people have NO idea what we are talking about it. So, I thought I would note some of my favourites. (I used one yesterday and the whole office thought I was nuts)
Robin Hood the Cartoon:
"Coming. Coming" (said in a sing-songy voice)
"Come again... on my birthday!"
"Ah me, young love."
Ace Ventura Pet Detective (hate the movie... love the line)
"Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor not a poolman"
"Why do you care about the dolphin? Do you know him? Does he call you at home? Do you have a dorsel fin?"
Hello Dolly
"Immediately. Immediately." (said in a very resonant tone)
"Stuffed whale... wow"
Little Women (the one with Wynona Ryder)
"I'm exhaustified of being a boy."
"How could you? Your one beauty!"
There are others... even more random comments that I say. People think I'm nuts. Its not untrue.
That's funny, I quote all the same things! Okay, not the Ace Ventura ones. Remember when we substitute different things in the "Ah me, young love"? Like, "Ah me, young Davy."
ReplyDeleteI think you would have stumped me on everyone of those.
ReplyDeleteRobin Hood the cartoon- was that the one where they were all animals? Robin Hood was a fox, Prince John was a snake, Robin Hood's sidekick was a bear...
ReplyDeleteCuz I loved that show. I'd watch it every day while making breakfast. It ruled.
QoWP: Totally! I still say that one all the time to Maddy. Also, I say it after I have dealt with a particularily gruesome domestic call, but that's just my sense of humour.
ReplyDeleteRoger: It would appear you were not raised a girl. Or in a house of girls. I think we watched all those movies about a hundred times. Our poor brother.
Jen: That's the one. It was a family favourite. We actually fought over who the copy of the tape belonged to!
We had it taped off of TV and then I bought it on VHS but then I loaned it to a girl I babysat for and never got it back so I bought myself a new copy and then Grae bought me one for my birthday that same year.
ReplyDeleteIt's my favourite Disney movie of all time.
Whenever I'm tired, I end up saying "I'm exhaustified of being the boy." I start off just saying "I'm exhaustified," but I can't just stop there.
ReplyDeleteApparently, I got both short ends on this deal. Four sisters and NO Robin Hood cartoon movie quotes.
ReplyDeleteHow does anyone survive 4 sisters????
ReplyDeleteUp until about 12, I'm not sure. It was then I was able to defend myself from their attacks. They were more into beating me up than dressing me up. But you break a collar bone and people start respecting you around the house.
ReplyDeleteSo, did they break your collar bone or you one of theirs? Were you the youngest? Poor Roger. I know how we tortured our brother.
ReplyDeleteI broke RS3's collar bone. I just pushed her off the couch. She started it. It wasn't bad though. I mean, it may have been, but there's no way for me to know.
ReplyDeleteOh trust me. It was bad.
ReplyDeleteMy brother broke my collar bone when I was 6. I still haven't forgiven him.
