"And I STEPPED on the ping-pong ball!"

[The Shadoe]

"It was just ghastly!" :cool:

[flippyshark]

I just love books. They're so decorative.

[tracilicious]

Is someone posting drunk? Where's Nirvanaman?

[wendybeth]

Probably on a taco run.

[Gemini Cricket]

"What's wrong with Muriel Puce?"

[katiesue]

"Exclusively what and restricted to whom?"

[Gemini Cricket]

"That's a 'B'. It's the first letter of a seven-letter word that means your father."

[katiesue]

"Golly long pants at last"

[Gemini Cricket]

"I'm your sponge!"

[katiesue]

You know, I was always fascinated by aviation. I never knew they did it all with rubber bands.

[Gemini Cricket]

"Are we all lit?"

[katiesue]

And what does Mr. Gooch do?

[Gemini Cricket]

"How vivid."

[katiesue]

"Please dear, your Auntie Mame is hung"

[Gemini Cricket]

"Help is on the way, darlings!"

[Prudence]

"Well, when you're from Pittsburgh you have to do something."

[katiesue]

"For nine years, Mame Dennis Burnside, I have done everything in my power to protect this boy from your idiotic, cockeyed nincompoopery."

[Gemini Cricket]

"No higher, Bo."

[Gn2Dlnd]

"BATS!"

[Kevy Baby]

"For nine years, Mame Dennis Burnside, I have done everything in my power to protect this boy from your idiotic, cockeyed nincompoopery."What does the Music Arranger (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0122940/) for Mickey Mouse Disco (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0164755/) have to do with this?!?

[Gemini Cricket]

"That moon is bright!"

[katiesue]

"I have an astronomical discovery for you. The man in the moon is a bitch."

[Gemini Cricket]

"There's a pretty picture, I must say."

[The Shadoe]

A divine man... such talented fingers. Oh, what he did to my bust!

[Gemini Cricket]

"What have you got back there? Reindeer?!"

[LSPoorEeyorick]

I'm going to take a slightly different tactic.

"I'll always be Alice Toklas,
If you'll be Gertrude Stein.
And though I'll admit I've dished you,
I've gossiped and gloated,
But I'm so devoted."

"And if I say that sex and guts made you into a star,
It's simply that who else but a bosom buddy
Will tell you how rotten you are."

[jdramj]

"that's just, top drawer"

[Gemini Cricket]

"I lived!"

[katiesue]

"Spitting distance? How vivid!"

[Gemini Cricket]

"...there's no such place as San Francisco..."

[Ponine]

All right... spill it. I dont get this thread, and I know I'm not alone.
What's the dealio?:eek:

[Capt Jack]

All right... spill it. I dont get this thread, and I know I'm not alone.
What's the dealio?:eek:


yeah! what she said!

:D

[mousepod]

Ok... let's take this thread in a different direction:

There is a name for you, ladies, but it isn't used in high society... outside of a kennel.

(I guess that's pretty much the same direction - just parallel - sorry)

[Gn2Dlnd]

Ok... let's take this thread in a different direction:



"ASSASSIN!"

[Gemini Cricket]

There is a name for you, ladies, but it isn't used in high society... outside of a kennel.
Good grief! I hate to tell you, dear, but your skin makes the Rocky Mountains look like chiffon velvet!

[katiesue]

"Why you sly little fox, you."

[tracilicious]

What's going on here?!

[mousepod]

You simply must see my hairdresser, I detest whoever does yours.

[jdramj]

Yes! Live! Life's a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death!

[katiesue]

"A woman's compromised the day she's born."

[The Shadoe]

Mahhhhhhhhh-DONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN-uhhhh like hair-do. (I love the way she practically sings this line)

[Gemini Cricket]

"He almost stood me up for his wife!"

[katiesue]

"You can't trust none of 'em no further than I can kick this lemon pie."

[mousepod]

Any ladle's sweet that dishes out some gravy.

[Gemini Cricket]

Thanks for the tip. But when anything I wear doesn't please Stephen, I take it off.

[katiesue]

She's got those eyes that run up and down a man like a searchlight.

[Gemini Cricket]

"Our new one piece lace foundation garment. Zips up the back and no bones."

[katiesue]

Oh, you remember the awful things they said about what's-her-name before she jumped out the window? There. You see? I can't even remember her name so who cares?

[Gemini Cricket]

"Lay off my reputation, girls, while I go unswallow."

[Gemini Cricket]

"I've had two years to grow claws, mother. Jungle Red!"

[SzczerbiakManiac]

"What could be more wholesome or natural!?!"

[katiesue]

Besides, there's nothing like a good dose of being left alone to make a man appreciate his wife.

[Gemini Cricket]

"Champagne?! Right you are."

[katiesue]

"Don't confide in your girlfriends. If you do, they'll see to it in the name of friendship that you lose your husband and your home."

[Gemini Cricket]

"I made him pay for what he wants, you made him pay for what he doesn't want."

[katiesue]

Oh, l'amour, l'amour, how it can let you down. Hmm. How it can pick you up again.

[Snowflake]

Ok... let's take this thread in a different direction:

Try our new lace foundation garment, zips up the back and no bones

[Snowflake]

LA PUBLICITE!

[Gemini Cricket]

You noble wives and mothers bore the brains out of me. And I bet you bore your husbands, too.

"Babble, babble, babble; that's all those creatures ever do... Ooo... Cheap Chinese embroidery. I bet Peggy gave her those."

[JWBear]

"My Johnny says that he'd like to do her nails right down to the wrist with a big buzz saw."

[JWBear]

All right... spill it. I dont get this thread, and I know I'm not alone.
What's the dealio?:eek:
#1 Auntie Mame (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051383/)
#2 The Women (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032143/)

Two of the campiest movies ever made.

[JWBear]

"It's marvelous to be able to spread out in bed, like a swastika."

[JWBear]

"I'm an old woman, my dear. I know my sex"

[SzczerbiakManiac]

Gonna throw another camp-fest into the mix here (please don't shoot me)
"I hate that word [comeback]! It's a return, a return to the millions of people who have never forgiven me for deserting the screen."

[Gemini Cricket]

The poor dope - he always wanted a pool. Well, in the end, he got himself a pool.

[katiesue]

We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

[Gemini Cricket]

There's nothing tragic about being fifty. Not unless you're trying to be twenty-five.

[katiesue]

No-one ever leaves a star. That's what makes one a star.

[SzczerbiakManiac]

"I'd like the coffin to be white, and I want it specially lined with satin. White... or pink. Maybe red! Bright flaming red! Let's make it gay!"

[katiesue]

There once was a time in this business when I had the eyes of the whole world! But that wasn't good enough for them, oh no! They had to have the ears of the whole world too. So they opened their big mouths and out came talk. Talk! TALK!

[SzczerbiakManiac]

"You are... writing words, words, more words! Well, you'll make a rope of words and strangle this business! But there'll be a microphone there to catch the last gurgles, and Technicolor to photograph the red, swollen tongues!"

[katiesue]

They took the idols and smashed them, the Fairbankses, the Gilberts, the Valentinos! And who've we got now? Some nobodies!

[Gemini Cricket]

Sometimes it's interesting to see just how bad bad writing can be. This promised to go the limit.

[Janie]

Lightning flashed and thunder boomed as if to protest another creation of badly written story about exploding heads in kitty porn.

The horror! The agony! The sadistic pleasure!

[Gemini Cricket]

I thought of another film we could quote the heck out of:

"You're maudlin and full of self-pity. You're magnificent!"

[katiesue]

"Fasten your seat belts. It's going to be a bumpy night."

Another movie to add to my must see list.

[JWBear]

I'll admit I may have seen better days, but I'm still not to be had for the price of a cocktail, like a salted peanut.

[JWBear]

Why do they always look like nappy rabbits?

[Gemini Cricket]

"Bill's thirty-two. He looks thirty-two. He looked it five years ago, he'll look it twenty years from now. I hate men."

[Gemini Cricket]

"While you wait you can read my column. It'll make minutes fly like hours."

[katiesue]

I'm a junkyard

[JWBear]

Ok... Let's switch movies again. Something a little more obscure this time. The movie my signature line comes from:

[katiesue]

Oh boy! I'm so smart it's a disease!

[CoasterMatt]

I'll never forget it. Never as long as I live. She said: 'Mommy,' and that was all. Oh I loved her so much. Oh please God, don't ever let anything happen to Veda.

[Snowflake]

Alligators have the right idea, they eat their young.

[Gemini Cricket]

When men get around me, they get allergic to wedding rings.

[Gemini Cricket]

Here's another film:


"Because I'm NOT one of your faaaaaaans!!!"

[Snowflake]

Here's another film:


"Because I'm NOT one of your faaaaaaans!!!"

ChRISTIIIINNNNAAAA, BRING ME THE AXE!!!!

[Snowflake]

Here's another film:
"Because I'm NOT one of your faaaaaaans!!!"

Okay, this is one of my favorite movie moments and I told this story to NA (I believe) when I was visiting. Read only if you know the film in question based on the quote above, otherwise, it's spoiler time:

I was at the Castro Theatre in SF, seeing a double bill, Mommie Dearest and Mildred Pierce, how great is that? Okay, so we're watching MD and in one of the scenes when Faye is doing pyscho Joan and slapping Chrstina around, there is this voice from behind us (envision a Macaulay Culkin face and gesture here) "Oh My GoD! Look at THAT couch!!" The entire theatre broke up and stopped the movie, laughing uproariously. I've never forgotten it, too bad I can't do the voice and add it here, it was priceless.

[Gemini Cricket]

"Don't fu ck with me fellas!"

[Snowflake]

AH, but nobody ever said life was fair, Tina. I'm bigger and I'm faster. I will always beat you.

[Snowflake]

Oh, one more

I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the dirt.

[Gemini Cricket]

"Oh yes, it was thrilling. I'm so grateful to you all... my wonderful fans, who made me a star. Oh yes. It was thrilling. I'm so grateful to you all. My WONderful fans, who made ME a star... MOMMIE?!"

[Gemini Cricket]

One of my bestest friends just acted in the stage version of 'The Women' and sent me the script for it. It's even funnier than the movie (believe it or not).

Also, sadly there's going to be a remake (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0430770/) of 'The Women' coming soon to a theatre near you. Ugh. Uma Thurman, Annette Benning, Ashley Judd, Meg Ryan, and Sandra Bullock... I think I'm going to throw up and mail it to them.
:D

This has been in the works, so to speak, for so long, I'll worry about it when I see it actually make some headway.

:D

Wait! Let me come to Boston and we can throw up together and mail it to them!

That does make sense the original play is funnier, they did not have the Breen Office to contend with. If only this had been a pre-code! That said, it is worth every second for the delicious and wonderful Mary Boland as the Countess. :snap:

Snowflake

[Gemini Cricket]

The play talks about naughty things they couldn't discuss in the movie. So very awesome. One of the huge things about the play is that married Stephen Haines saw Crystal Allen after several other mistresses. (!!!) So the ending that he's going back to Mary isn't all that final, it's as if he may cheat on her again... D'oh!

Love Mary Boland!

:)

[JWBear]

Too late. It's been done already. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0049578/) (As a musical, no less!)

[JWBear]

I just can't let this thread die.... So:

"Yah, my ma's clothes all melted onto mine forming, like, this big polyester meteor in our closet, y'know? But, in some kinda weird miracle, our neighbor boy, Kenny Johanson, found my tap costume on the roof o' their trailer while he was settin' coon traps for his dad. Here's the weird part: it was still on the hanger. "
