While listening to Phoenix's "Griftomania"

I would've thought your favorite shot would have involved more farting.

Yep. This and House of Games made two fantastic "con" movies in three years. Hardly any since.

Paramedictd: (v.) When one has been charged with malpractice by a soldier that jumps out of airplanes.

Hey this ain't The Andy Griftin' Show we're talking about here Opie.

The ending of Fitzcarraldo goes for the jungular.

Better Off Dead doesn't just have one amazing actor in his youth. It has two. How could a movie that features both John Cusack and Curtis Armstrong (plus psychotic paperboys and Japanese guys doing Howard Cosell impressions) not be a classic??

I actually prefer 1990's other Thompson apdatation After Dark My Sweet. It has been criminally ignored from the beginning. Fantastic movie. Rachel Ward and Bruce Dern are excellent and Jason Patric (??!!) was flat-out amazing.

I think Sixteen Candles was his best performance.

This. He also can't take, what was it, a baseball bat?

Oh, and Gunny also gave us the opposite of a fuck quote:

For Kubrick I always go with Gunny Hartman:

You're just mad because you have a clitoris for a nose.

And don't forget:

"I'm here to laugh, love, fuck and drink liquor
And help the damn revolution come quicker."

"Why do I keep fucking up?"

How about The Feederz classic:

"…you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes "click".

Hey, careful, man! There's a beverage here!

I can get you a toe by three o'clock this afternoon…
