    I have a copy of this movie on my dvd shelf. Not obscure at all.

    First quote- Paul Newman. Second - John C. McGinley. Here's another.

    "I have rats in my skull!" (Dwight Schultz)



    But if you truly believe the above movie is obscure, in the name of fairness I offer this other one as a replacement ...

    "Turkey's got 249 pages of diseases"

    I wouldn't say the film is obscure, but I wouldn't say the film was that good either.

    Ah, Fat Man and Little Boy. I'd say it was semi-obscure. Saw it once and felt robbed a bit. It was better than that Manhatten show they're running now though. I keep getting side-tracked on WW2 movies being action packed shoot'em ups and not background story type of storylines.

    Nobody said it had to be a great movie. Besides, isn't it in the eye of the beholder?

    Well, this next one is both great and a Shoot'em up, and hasn't shown up in several months. :eatpopcorn:

    "Turkey has 249 pages of diseases"

    That one is a giveaway, yes?

    My turn pal. Check the rules, you don't get to go twice. What do you think this is, a cheap whore house or something?

    Here's my quote.

    "pistol, turd head"

    Here's another one for those who feel so inclined to play along.

    "they do have restrooms at Ft. Dix. I used them a lot".

    No. Here's another one.

    "No, son. You've got a problem because you don't know Army terminology. The place where a U.S. soldier goes to defecate, relieve himself, open his bowel, shit, fart, dump, crap, and unload, is called the latrine. The la-trine, from the French".

    A more recent film (1970 on) considering the use of the words "shit" and "fart" ?

    oops, no "streamers" was set at the time of Vietnam...

    That's it. One of my favorites. A great source of one liners too. Your turn.

    For some reason I reread those lines and could only hear Christopher Walken's voice...

    "Turkey's got 249 pages of diseases"

    "You American haters bore me to tears, Ms. Barham. I've dealt with Europeans all my life. I know all about us parvenus from the States who come over here and race around your old Cathedral towns with our cameras and Coca-cola bottles... Brawl in your pubs, paw at your women, and act like we own the world. We over-tip, we talk too loud, we think we can buy anything with a Hershey bar. I've had Germans and Italians tell me how politically ingenuous we are, and perhaps so. But we haven't managed a Hitler or a Mussolini yet. I've had Frenchmen call me a savage because I only took half an hour for lunch. Hell, Ms. Barham, the only reason the French take two hours for lunch is because the service in their restaurants is lousy. The most tedious lot are you British. We crass Americans didn't introduce war into your little island. This war, Ms. Barham to which we Americans are so insensitive, is the result of 2,000 years of European greed, barbarism, superstition, and stupidity. Don't blame it on our Coca-cola bottles, Europe was a going brothel long before we came to town."
