Subdeacon Joe Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 "That leaves only three thousand nine hundred and forty."
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 14, 2015 Author Posted July 14, 2015 SIXTY WHAT? (chuckles) Didn't get the movie reference, eh?
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I'm not a big movie person.
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 Drawing a blank my ownself. I'll wait a bit for a few more to chime in before I give any hints.
Wrangler Rich SASS #42157 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I don't have a clue. Little help?
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Lt. Bromhead: Sixty! We dropped at least sixty, wouldn't you say?Adendorff: That leaves only three thousand nine hundred and forty. (Google is your friend!)
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 Lt. Bromhead: Sixty! We dropped at least sixty, wouldn't you say? Adendorff: That leaves only three thousand nine hundred and forty. (Google is your friend!) Give the man a Kewpie Doll! (another movie reference)
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 This could be "Heavenly"! Not the movie I had in mind for the Kewpie Doll reference. Think William Holden.
Sedalia Dave Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Not the movie I had in mind for the Kewpie Doll reference. Think William Holden. "Nobody beat me. We were playing pinochle. It's a rough game."
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 "Nobody beat me. We were playing pinochle. It's a rough game." "Where's the ham hock? There should be a ham hock."
Warden Callaway Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 That's too easy. "Why is it us? Why us?" "Because we're here, lad. Nobody else. Just us."
Utah Bob #35998 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 "I'll have my man clean your kit" "Don't bother" "Oh, no bother old boy. Wasn't offering to do it myself"
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 "Chin, chin! Do carry on with your mud pies."
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 "The army doesn't like more than one disaster in a day." "Looks bad in the newspapers and upsets civilians at their breakfast."
Bugs Bonney SASS # 10171 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Men of Harfleur stop your dreaming Can't you see their spear points gleaming And their warrior banners streaming to this battlefield.
Trigger Mike Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 dad gummit now i had to go watch it on youtube.
Bugs Bonney SASS # 10171 Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 First rank, FIRE! Second Rank, FIRE! Third Rank, FIRE! First Rank, Fire!, I said FIRE!, Dammit can't you hear me!
Subdeacon Joe Posted July 19, 2015 Author Posted July 19, 2015 "The army doesn't like more than one disaster in a day." "Looks bad in the newspapers and upsets civilians at their breakfast." Two of the best lines in the movie. Also. "You slovenly soldier, Hitch!"
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 There sure was a bunch of those guys with the pointy things.
Sedalia Dave Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 There sure was a bunch of those guys with the pointy things. Heard that were about three thousand nine hundred, and forty at last count.
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 My favorite character in this excellent, though not completely accurate, war movie was Colour Sergeant Bourne, and this is one of my favorite exchanges in the movie: Colour Sergeant Bourne: It's a miracle. Lieutenant Chard: If it's a miracle, Colour Sergeant, it's a short chamber Boxer Henry point 45 caliber miracle. Colour Sergeant Bourne: And a bayonet, sir, with some guts behind.
