After all, in 'The Island' (2005), set in the year 2019, the 'Information Directory' looks suspiciously like Bing.

Doesn't look like that's actually in the movie.

At least, with the Cloud, Mr Beeks does not need to go places any more to get those "stupid old crop reports" from the department of Agriculture ...

It reminds me of...

What's the problem with your contract?

I figured if I played well,
I'd renegotiate and get more money.

If you didn't play well,
could we renegotiate and pay you less?

-Sure. What do you got?
-Authorization for a body cavity search.

It's like in Wayne's World:

"... new game called Zantar. Zantar is a gelatinous cube that eats warriors in a village. If you eat a chieftain, you go up a level. Beauty is, you can't get to the next level, kids keep coughing up quarters." - Noah Vanderhoff (copied from here)

They fooled me this time... Damn.

I read the book when I was a kid. I thought the patient's name, Benes, was pronounced "Beans" instead of "Ben-ess". I still have the phrase "But we'll kill Beans!" floating around in my head. They said it every time they were going to do something remotely dramatic, so it and phrases like it got used a lot.

Your observation concerning the proper demenor for a six-year-old is, a valid one, but please be aware that the parent is quoting from the John Candy picture "Uncle Buck" in an act of ( probably ) intentional irony.

You said:

From Night of the Living Dead:

They're us.
We're them, and they're us.

It's amazing what 65,000 feet of atmosphere will do to your nice laser. Plus the joy of keeping it focused on one place to allow the heat to build up sufficiently.

Especially if the blasted thing's invisible!

... and the results are that Obama spins the most.

"I need some machine to tell me that?" War Games

"Habit and Routine make my life possible"

And everybody's talking about gun control,
got to get rid of the guns.

Fuck that. I like guns. You got a gun, you don't have to work out.

I ain't working out. I ain't jogging. You got pecs, I got Tecs.

Fuck that shit. You don't need no gun control.
You know what you need? We need some bullet control.

Man, we need to control the bullets, that's right.

I think all bullets should cost $5000. $5000 for a bullet. You know why?

'Cause if a bullet costs $5000, there'd be no more innocent bystanders. That'd be it.
Every time someone gets shot, people will be like, "Damn, he must have did something.
"Shit, they put $50000 worth of bullets in his ass."

People would think before they killed somebody, if a bullet cost $5000.

"Man, l would blow your fucking head off...if I could afford it.
"I'm gonna get me another job,
"I'm gonna start saving some money...
"and you're a dead man.
"You better hope I can't get no bullets on layaway."

So even if you get shot by a stray bullet...you won't have to go to no doctor to get it taken out.

Whoever shot you
would take their bullet back.
"I believe you got my property."

That's right, man.

Remember the film 'Deep Impact', where the asteroid hit the Atlantic Ocean? We saw various people and locations in the States get wiped out. Then Morgan Freeman's voiceover said "blah blah, the wave hit Europe and Africa too, blah blah".

Téa Leoni gets to break the story and has a whole beach to herself with her father (what, nobody in the area got stoned enough to suicidally try and King Canute the wave back?) and two continents get a sentence...?!?!?!?!??

Screw you, Morgan Freeman.

If you take this argument to the extreme and wikipedia becomes the sum of all knowledge then it will become unwieldy. If I hear someone say "George McGovern said something like that" and I don't know who they are referring to I would like a concise list of possibilities, not "George McGovern , purveyor of finest smoked haddock" and "George McGovern, Bogville's crossowrd champion 1997".

It could be like Zero, the computer in Rollerball:

He considers everything.
He's become so ambiguous now,

as if he knows nothing at all.

Well, gee, Dad goes off

to the factory every day
and, you know,

he built missiles." These
are weapons of mass destruction.

You forced me to do a Google. I was pretty sure my memory was correct. It's the type of thing I wouldn't forget since I live in Toronto:

This Internet's like a great big pussy just waiting to get fucked. I should've come here years ago.

Apologies to the worthy script. None are offered to Ed "cuz" he sounds more like a gangster than the leader of one of the world's largest companies. Shame!

I've read that script, it's available from Drew's Script-O-Rama. Gibson's Alien3 script was a true extention of Aliens and was superior in every way; a very enjoyable read. I remember reading on the 'web that it would have been way too expensive to make, so the producers literally threw the script out the window into a dumpster.

Sad.

The parent's not flamebait! Here's where that was misquoted from.

We didn't have enough money to put a man in a tracksuit up a ladder!

I would've been there - "Go, man!"
"I'm going, I'm going, 'ang on."

"Just hang on to the ladder!"

"Hello, Swindon, I am here."

"Swindon, can you hear me?"

"Swindon here. We're monitoring you on our instruments."

"We've got you on a tuba."

(Quiet laughter)

That should be a bigger laugh for that joke, I think.

Yeah, I can't quite understand it, I thought it was really funny.

Swindon - a knackered, kind of Fresno town...

They don't seem to be going for it.

They're obviously bastards.

"Anyway, Swindon, I'm nearly at the moon."

"Actually, that's an understatement."

"Have you got more ladder? We're not quite at the moon yet."

"But I can see right over the top of the houses. Fantastic!"

They write a song to the tune of Beethoven where each word is the answer in a multiple choice exam.

The song: Start at the line: Crippled elves do dance around
