2. I could have picked them
and though they made the brilliant comedy The Hudsucker Proxy, I had to go for something more along the lines of Ruthless People :D

5. I was wondering who would pick him!
So you're saying your life is plotless with lots of violence and explosions? :P

13. Fair enough.
Just be prepared for lots and lots of body-function and body-dysfunction 'humor'

26. Sonuvabitch! You beat me to it!
For a time we tried to contact them by radio but no response. Then they attacked a town, a small town I'll admit, but never the less a town of people, people who died.


The story of Dr. Strange's life is the most fantastic story I've ever heard.
And every word of it's true, too.
That's the fantastic part of it.

35. I resemble that insultive remark.
I love Ed's movies. The "special" effects, the dialog, the philosophical ramifications...

Thats the end of that one. Atmospheric conditions in outer space often interfere with transmitting.

Perhaps, on your way home, someone will pass you in the dark, and you will never know it... for they will be from outer space.

From all I've seen tonight, guns won't do any good. Clay's dead, and we buried him. How are we gonna kill someone who's already dead? *Dead*! And yet there he stands!

Only the infinity of the depths of a man's mind can really tell the story.

The world is a strange place to live in. All those cars. All going someplace. All carrying humans, which are carrying out their lives.

Your puritan upbringing holds you back from my monsters, but it certainly doesn't hurt your art of kissing.
That's life. My kisses are alive.
