You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95.

Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish?

Some people hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to get colonized by. We're ruled by effete assholes. It's a shite state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and all the fresh air in the world won't make any fucking difference!

Sheriff McClelland: Well, there's no problem. If you have a gun, shoot 'em in the head. That's a sure way to kill 'em. If you don't, get yourself a club or a torch. Beat 'em or burn 'em. They go up pretty easy.

The only one I have seen is O Brother, which I really enjoyed; much to my surprise because I don' normally like the Coen brothers' stuff.
I haven't watched "Heathers" for far too long...
All great selections Starr. I have watched many of these a few dozen times. Cheers!!
Great list!
Superb TT this week! I enjoyed the quotes for the movies that I haven't even seen yet. Whenever I think of "Trainspotting", I think of the "laundry/breakfast" scene.
There were so many great lines in "Heathers" that it must have been hard to pick just one. One of my favorites is...
Heather #1: Did you have a brain tumor for breakfast?
I've only seen a couple of those!
I was struggling early (0 for the first 7), but then I have seen "Raising Arizona," "Wild at Heart" and "Heathers," so I don't feel so bad.
As far as "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," they had that at a venue where I worked years ago. I had never seen the movie - or the nonsense that people do when they go out in public to see it. I still have never seen the movie.
That's bad, huh?
Thanks guys, glad you are all liking them. I actually own a good portion of these and plan to get the ones I don't own. It is a mystery on why I don't own The Dude. It is hands down one of my top 5 movies.
LOL RWA, I was one of those who perpetrated the nonsence. It was awesome!
You should check out Army of Darkness though...hands down one of the funniest cheesiest rips on horror movies out there. I LUVS that movie. Own it too!
Well, if you were one of the perpetrators, then shame on you!!!!
Just kidding.
Ahhh... so many of my favorites! I haven't dona thursday thirteen in ages. Holy cow.
LO I've seenmost of those.
Great TT
Aline
Excellent quotage!
I bet you and Trevor would have fun in strip clubs... wish he could rescue you from the day job and whisk you off for an afternoon of fun. Don't think he wouldn't!
LOVE the quotes. Those rock.
I haven't seen a lot of those, but these are great quotes!
Thanks for visiting my magic quotes TT last week. Sorry I’m late with my return visit; I got the flu.:-(
Oh man...we have the same taste in movies.
I don't know what that means other than you're a classy broad like me.
:-D
