great summary of CUK

"Define Irony: Bunch of idiots dancing on a plane to a song made famous by a band that died in a plane crash."

They somehow managed to get every creep and freak in the universe onto this one plane. And then somehow managed to let them take it over. And then somehow managed to stick us right smack in the middle.

so many great quotes


'put the bunny back in the box'!!


Con Air - Movie Quotes - Rotten Tomatoes


'On any other day, that might seem strange.'

What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn't you consider that to be insane?

Is that the adaptation of the Neil Gaiman book? I think I've seen it, can't remember

Yep. Featured Robert De Niro in full drag.

^^Indeed, but I also liked the Patton version.

The version starring Jack Palance & set in Arizona or New Mexico is distinctly different and not in a good way.

I've yet to find out what his version of Treasure Island is like, apparently made on the Isle of Man.

I rather enjoyed the George C. Scott version of "Scrooge".

The Alistair Sims 1951 version is still the daddy. Being in black & white adds to the atmosphere.

Blackadder's Christmas Carol is my favourite colour version.

R.E.D. and R.E.D. 2 if only to see Helen Mirren wielding a gun

The first one was good. The second was a bit meh.

I was very disappointed when I rewatched "Dark Star".

Maybe because when you first see it you are wondering what the heck is going on.

Edit: FFS why did auto****itup change mirren to mitten????????

Because I'd like her as a cock glove.

[DoctorStrangelove]

Solaris <for insomniacs>
dark star
silent running

I was very disappointed when I rewatched "Dark Star".

Like "Weird Science" maybe some of these epics are best kept as good memories.

R.E.D. and R.E.D. 2 if only to see Helen Mitten wielding a gun

In particular the 50 cal Browning.

I rather enjoyed the George C. Scott version of "Scrooge".
