I already posted this somewhere else on here, but it was so funny it deserves an encore!

Arthur: “Where’s Mrs. Bach? Is she…”
Fairchild: “Madam awoke early. She had some phone calls to make.”
Arthur: “Ah. Ah, well in that case, put on one of her nightgowns and come in here, would you?”
Fairchild: “Sir?”
Arthur: “Oh, come on, Fairchild. I know you want it. I’ve seen the way you look at me.”
(Fairchild heads toward closet.)
Arthur: “Hey! Fairchild, I’m kidding! I’m kidding. God, it’s the truth. Don’t they ever kid each other on your planet?”

"Is Susan Johnson here? I've come to marry the bitch."

Just reading this one isn't anywhere near as funny as actually watching the scene. I find it quite hilarious that he can be so drunk that not even losing his $750 million fortune can take the fun out of Arthur!

(Arthur has just gotten back from talking with Burt Johnson, where he was informed he had lost all of his $750 million unless he divorces Linda and marries Susan.)
Arthur: "Hello. Hi, honey. We're poor! We're white trash, Linda! Linda, we're bankrupt! Linda, there's a bleak fiscal outlook. Linda? Linda! Oh, Greta. Greta, have you seen my wife… destitute woman about this tall."



"Is Susan Johnson in? I've come to marry the bitch." ~Dudley Moore as Arthur Bach

Arthur: "Oh god, look at me Hobson."
Hobson: "No thank you."

The Hobson scenes are great and completely save the movie.

Arthur-"Why are you doing this"?
Burt Johnson-"Because you did't marry Susan"!
Arthur-"Lots of people didn't marry her, <Arthur looking at one of Burt's crew members> that guy didn't even take her out...Lets take him down an beat the sh*t outta him"!


Here's to those who wish me well...

I love the part where Arthur is saying the prayer before dinner and says he's thankful for getting the smallest piece of meatloaf-then he high fives Linda's Dad and then falls off the chair! I crack up every time!! SOO FUNNY!!

This is my favorite scene in an otherwise just-ok movie.

Hobson (to a drunken Arthur): If projectile vomiting ever became an Olympic event; you'd do your country proud.

Arthur(after the landlord of their new,run down apartment reveals that the special feature IOL he's been raving about is Instant On Lighting..meaning the lights turn on when you hit the switch) ): "IOL! (hits the light switch up and down a few times). He's not kidding...Look,there's virtually no delay!"

and (in deference to the same apartment: "Some paint, a few curtains..and this place could be a real s**thole."
