TOM CRUISE WEEK: THE COLOR OF MONEY

9/18/2015

Comments

 
I saved the best for last, here they are, my favorite quotes from The Color Of Money!
_______________________________
Eddie Felson: You got to be a student...of human moves. See, all the greats that I know of...were students of human moves.

_______________________________
Eddie Felson: You're some piece of work. You're also a natural character.
Vincent Lauria: I've been telling her that. I got natural character.
Eddie Felson: That's not what I said, kid. I said you are a natural character. You're an incredible flake. But that's a gift. Guys spend half their lives inventing that.
_______________________________
Carmen: Vincent, you win one more game... you're gonna be humping your fist for a long time.
_______________________________
Eddie Felson: The balls roll funny for everybody, kiddo.
_______________________________
Eddie Felson: Vincent, get in the car, this is embarrassing. You're acting like some girl who got felt up at the drive-in.
_______________________________
Eddie Felson: Human moves, kid. You study the watch... while I study you.
_______________________________
Vincent Lauria: Hey Eddie, what are you going to do when I kick your ass?
Eddie Felson: Pick myself up and let you kick me again.
Vincent Lauria: Oh yeah?
Eddie Felson: Yeah.
[pause]
Eddie Felson: Just don't put the money in the bank, kid. Because if I don't whip you now, I'm gonna whip you next month in Dallas.

Another great movie... My favorite quotes:
________________________________________
Ray: D'you know that the human head weighs 8 pounds?
Jerry: Did you know that Troy Aikman, in only six years, has passed for 16,303 yards?
Ray: D'you know that bees and dogs can smell fear?
Jerry: Did you know that the career record for hits is 4,256 by Pete Rose who is NOT in the Hall of Fame?
Ray: D'you know that my next door neighbor has three rabbits?
Jerry: I... I can't compete with that!
________________________________________
Ray: Let's go to the zoo Jerry
Jerry: The fuckin zoo is closed, Ray.
Ray: You said "fuck."
Jerry: Uh... yeah... I...
Ray: Don't worry. I won't tell.

________________________________________

Rod Tidwell: It's something very personal, a very important thing. Hell! It's a family motto. Are you ready Jerry? I wanna make sure you're ready, brother. Here it is: Show me the money. Show! Me! The! Money! Jerry, it is such a pleasure to say that! Say it with me one time, Jerry.

________________________________________

Jerry Maguire: But if anybody else wants to come with me, this moment will be the ground floor of something real and fun and inspiring and true in this godforsaken business and we will do it together! Who's coming with me besides... "Flipper" here?
________________________________________

Rod Tidwell: Anyone else would have left you by now, but I'm sticking with you. And if I have to ride your ass like Zorro, you're gonna show me the money.

________________________________________
Jerry Maguire: How's your head?
Rod Tidwell: Bubblicious.

________________________________________
Jerry Maguire: What do you want from me? My soul?
Dorothy: Why not? I deserve that much.

Who doesn't love this movie? Here are some of my favorite quotes:
____________________________________________
Harry Hogge: All right. While we're still under a caution, I want you to go back out on that track and hit the pace car.
Cole Trickle: Hit the pace car?
Harry Hogge: Hit the pace car.
Cole Trickle: What for?
Harry Hogge: Because you've hit every other goddamned thing out there, I want you to be perfect.
____________________________________________
Harry Hogge: Cole, you're wandering all over the track!
Cole Trickle: Yeah, well this son of a bitch just slammed into me.
Harry Hogge: No, no, he didn't slam you, he didn't bump you, he didn't nudge you... he *rubbed* you. And rubbin, son, is racin'.
____________________________________________
Cole Trickle: Just a little rubbing Harry and rubbings racing.
____________________________________________
Harry Hogge: What do you know about stock car racing?
Cole Trickle: Well... watched it on television, of course.

TOM CRUISE WEEK: TOP GUN

9/15/2015

So the movie Top Gun came out when I was 4 and to this day it is still one of my favorite movies, probably in large credit to the fact that the same year the movie came out, my brother went into the navy. So a few of my favorite quotes:
___________________________________________
Maverick: Tower, this is Ghost rider requesting a flyby.
Air Boss Johnson: That’s a negative Ghost rider, the pattern is full.
___________________________________________
Carole: Hey Goose you big stud!
Goose: That’s me, honey.
Carole: Take me to bed or lose me forever.
Goose: Show me the way home, honey.
___________________________________________
Charlie: Well, if you were directly above him, how could you see him?
Maverick: Because I was inverted.
Iceman: [coughs whilst saying] Bullshit.
Goose: No, he was man. It was a really great move. He was inverted.
Charlie: You were in a 4g inverted dive with a MiG28?
Maverick: Yes, ma'am.
Charlie: At what range?
Maverick: Um, about two meters.
Goose: It was actually about one and a half I think. It was one and a half. I've got a great Polaroid of it, and he's right there, must be one and a half.
Maverick: Was a nice picture.
Goose: Thanks.
Charlie: Eh, lieutenant, what were you doing there?
Goose: Communicating.
Maverick: Communicating. Keeping up foreign relations. You know, giving him the bird!
Goose: [Charlie looks puzzled, so Goose clarifies] You know, the finger
Charlie: Yes, I know the finger, Goose.
Goose: I-I'm sorry, I hate it when it does that, I'm sorry. Excuse me.
___________________________________________
Maverick: [spots Charlie for the first time] She's lost that loving feeling.
Goose: She's lo... No she hasn't.
Maverick: Yes, she has.
Goose: She's not lost that lo...
Maverick: Goose, she's lost it, man.
Goose: Come on!
Goose: [to himself] Aw sh... I hate it when she does that.
___________________________________________
Jester: That was some of the best flying I've seen to date - right up to the part where you got killed.
