OT, Sept. 2: say what?

PrintThis OT features the Top 100 movie quotes according to the American Film Institute... "A statement, phrase or brief exchange of dialogue spoken in an American film; movie quotes that viewers use in their own lives and situations; circulating through popular culture, they become part of the national lexicon; movie quotes that viewers use to evoke the memory of a treasured film, thus ensuring and enlivening its historical legacy"
the question of the day ... what ones should be there, but are not.
Here are the top 10:
1 Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.
2 I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse.
3 You don't understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could've been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am.
4 Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.
5 Here's looking at you, kid.
6 Go ahead, make my day.
7 All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my closeup.
8 May the Force be with you.
9 Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy night.
10 You talking to me?
you might find your quote on the original list of 400 -- or not .... there is hardly anything from the always quotable Coen brothers.

Not a quote but my favorite all time movie moment is the scene in Superbad where they show the drawing of the dick standing up to the tank ala Tienanmen Square
I don’t I have ever or will ever again laugh as hard as the first time that I saw that.
Great comedies like that, it's something different for everyone else, what their favorite moment is.
And it seems like its always something subtle.
My favorite line from Superbad is when Joe Latruglio is inviting the guys to the party to make up for hitting Seth with his car and says “It’s got booze, babes, could there might be a slip-n-slide? I dunno, do you? I dunno, do you?” or something to that effect. I say “I dunno, do you?” all the time.

I was just getting ready to post this in the other OT
Last night, Treyarch showed off the Multiplayer mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops.
It sounds amazing. There is a “betting” playlist, where you can wager in-game points and then play in custom gametypes that sound like a blast.
Treyarch does such a better job with Multiplayer.

Best movie-stealing performances of all-time? Where an actor perhaps only had 5-10 minutes of screen time but stole the show or had a moment written for them that was the best part of the movie?
Ned Beatty for Network

Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross should be the gold standard in this category.

If you haven't seen Network, I can't speak highly enough of it and Ned Beatty's scene. He had about 5 minutes of air time and got an Academy award nomination.

Great movie
Hasn’t aged well though. If you have friends who can’t contextualize, they may have a hard time with it.
Really? I thought it aged really well when I saw it a few years ago.
Reality TV… terrorism… News pundits…
I think the fact that "bleak and cynical" turned out to be 80 percent accurate is still interesting.
It’s not like it’s some bad effects sci-fi movie or slow old black and white. (This is why I can’t get into Ozu.)

it was… kinda meh. Like a lot of biopics they take a person, a complicated person in this case, and try to boil all that complexity down to some hobgoblin that chases them over their whole career. Usually it’s daddy issues or drugs. This time it’s an overbearing mother. Lame.

Yep.
But you wouldn’t use a colon in the military when writing the time.

2000 hours.
"I’m taking two beers and popping the slide"
Correct.
When I was in the military I witnessed it being written and said with or without the “hours” at the end (i.e. “The attack begins at 2000”).
Also, FYI it would be pronounced “twenty hundred” (no offense if you already knew that).

Although “twenty hundred” sounds really weird, where for some reason “twenty-one hundred” does not.

On a very basic level, the Julian date is the number of days it has been since the beginning of the year.
So today is 245. As you get into the full process trying to include years and everything, it gets much more complicated.

"Dodge Charger owner upset vehicle crushed by suicidal fall"
Her car was crushed — and so is she.
A New Jersey woman is devastated that her precious sports car — just repaired and fully gassed up — was wrecked by a suicidal man’s 40-story attempted death leap on the Upper West Side.
“I miss it. It’s my baby,” moaned Maria McCormack, who regrets lending her husband the 2008 Dodge Charger Tuesday for work. "I want to meet [Tom Magill] and say, ‘Why? Why my car out of all the cars in the city?’ "

That whole manhunt thing they had going in Everett that closed I-5.

Then I read a comment on the news site..
I know that if the man they were chacing broke the law, he should pay for it !! But, I think to block the whold I-5 is stupit !! They have anuff law inforcement
Seriously.. this isn’t even chatspeak. Even grade school kids know how to spell better than this. Right?
No kidding. Most of the comments everywhere are just moronic.
"I’m taking two beers and popping the slide"
Yesterday they were saying the owner of the car was almost thankful.
He was claiming the rosary beads he kept in the car saved the man’s life. I guess the husband feels differently than the wife!

The quotes in that are fucking amazing.
Meanwhile, a Dodge spokesman credited the car’s “high-strength steel structure” for helping absorb the blow.
“We are glad that Mr. Magill survived the 40-story free-fall and that our Dodge Charger was able to cushion his landing,” said company spokesman Jiyan Cadiz. “We hope that Mr. Magill gets well.”

So we’d toss coins around the lunch room and watch him snap-look in the direction of the “ping” and go mosey over and watch to make sure nobody was chasing it before picking it up.

One of the most entertaining automotive experiences of my life came when I skid-padded a rental Mitsubishi Mirage.
Ooh, yeah, and e-brake drifts. A friend of mine almost flipped his rental Kia on its side when the car bit more than he expected in an e-brake turn.
I rented a cheap Ford Probe (? I think?) years ago, and apparently it either didn't have or lost the oil cap. I was driving it from Yakima to Pendleton, and the entire hood was engulfed in flames.
I wanted the whole thing to explode, but some idiot good Samaritan called 911, and they came and put it out.
I wanted to do that whole run away and jump slow-motion thing with the explosion.
I was pretty dumb back then.
…And yet I still think it would have been cool.
I sometimes find myself engaged in combat with hobos.
Unfortunately, real cars seldom explode.

New Elias rankings
Felix is tops among AL starting pitchers. So, he basically the Cy Young, if you trade one imperfect ranking system with another.
The Mariners have no pending free agents ranked as A or B. So there’s a decision the team won’t need to worry about this off-season.
From my understanding, Elias takes 2 years worth of data. So logically, Felix has been the best pitcher in the AL over last season and this season combined.
But this season alone, I guess technically you could pick someone else. BUT I WOULDNT!

When Walter Johnson got a win, it meant something more back then than it does today. He’s like the goalie. A great hockey goalie can’t control how many goals his team scores but we still like to credit him for being a “winning goalie”
But that was back when Walter Johnson or any pitcher would start 40-50 times and go 9 innings or more. He should be credited with some sort of win maybe, especially a lot of low-scoring games where every run mattered. Today, they don’t mean anything. But that’s decades of tradition that people don’t want to let go.

Frank Dupree, played 1 game with the White Sox in 1901. Dupree’s career ERA is “inf”
He pitched, he gave up 3 walks, 0 hits, 3 ER. And that was his career. He can always say nobody ever got a hit off of him in the majors.
So we've found a pitching equivalent to Ron Wright?

Why Apple fanboys are annoying, vol. 985746
iTunes 10 was released the other day (yes, I use iTunes. I’m an undemanding consumer. Don’t like iTunes? Don’t really care, that’s not the point here), and what’s the thing in the new iTunes that has most people up in arms and ready to set buildings on fire? Performance degradation? Totally redone, confusing interface? Nope. Apple has taken the three color coded buttons at the top left corner of iTunes (minimize, magnify, close) and oriented them vertically instead of horizontally. No other change to the buttons or their functionality, it’s just that now it looks like a stop light instead of a row of buttons.
That’s it. That’s what people are having problems with. Really? Your little brain can’t still figure out that red = close, yellow = minimize, green = magnify, even if they’re in slightly different places?
After reading this, I'm now annoyed with both Apple and Apple fanboys.
Both the change and the overreaction to the change seem unnecessary and dumb.
But see, that's the thing
The change may have been unnecessary, but it’s not like they took the buttons and hid them in a menu, or changed their function – literally all they did was rotate the orientation of the buttons 90 degrees. Why people get all up in arms about this stuff I will never understand.

If anything the changing of the button layout on iTunes is a sign that they are going to make all button layouts vertical in 10.7
Also I can not believe I’m saying this but iTunes 10 is finally fast enough for me to consider using it on an everyday basis.
It definitely performs a lot better than 8 or 9

While that's completely understandable (wanting the power back),
if you don’t even like her, I’d say cancel the breakfast and just let it go. In some ways that would accomplish both things.

Think of it this way - if you dislike her, why would you want to continue to associate with her?
Compare the best possible outcome of meeting back up with her to the worst possible outcome and then think – is this really worth it? If winning back the power is the goal, how realistic do you think that is, and how much will that benefit you, versus the possible downsides?
It's probably a shortsighted goal of mine and I should probably consider all of the outcomes.

I think I've figured out what's wrong with the Mariners offense, and it involves moving Ichiro and Chone Figgins in the lineup.
We all know that Chone Figgins is at his best when he’s leading off. It’s an established fact. So, to take proper advantage of this major free-agent acquisition, we should move him up to first in the order.
So, what about Ichiro? People also forget how important the ninth spot in the order is, in terms of setting the table for your top-of-the-lineup bats – with his ability to get hits, Ichiro could really thrive in that role. So why not move Ichiro to ninth? It’s a think-outside-the-box type of move that could really pay off.
That way when we wrap around our lineup we get this order, which I think could really be dynamite:
9. Ichiro
1. Chone Figgins
Of course, people around here are such knee-jerk Ichiro defenders and so dogmatic about moving him around in the lineup that they’ll probably hate this move. Whatever.
by Chris Hafner on Sep 3, 2010 12:58 PM PDT up reply actions
I like the idea of Ichiro hitting before Figgins like you suggest.
Let’s get really crazy though and hit Branyan first, Ichiro second and Figgins third.
I don't think you've really thought that through.
The whole point here is to get Figgins on-track by batting him lead-off. There’s no possible chance he’ll get going if he’s in another lineup spot.
Chone is built like a 12 year old so maybe he is easily distracted.
I say tell him he is batting leadoff, but when Ichiro goes to lead off show him something shiny to distract him. Then after Ichiro hits his single tell him it is time to lead off. If he asks why Ichiro is on first tell him the league felt bad about how shitty our offense was and the let us put Ichiro on first to start the game.
by Sec 108 on Sep 3, 2010 1:13 PM PDT up reply actions 5 recs
You're looking at it all wrong.
Ichiro should bat third because he can hit HRS whenever he wants I’ve seen him doing it in batting practice you should mauybe watch sometime and get your nose out of the spreadhseets there dorks.
If he bats third than he’ll get better pitches since Lopez can protect him.
Have Figgins lead off, and bat Josh Wilson second.
Let’s get Tui some more playing time too. He can fill in at Third. Have Figgins go back to a supersub. Bat Tui fifth becase the guy can really hit.
Gutierrez needs to work on his hitting more, so drop him to ninth until he figures it out. Figgins can play center for him when he needs a day off to clear his head.
