im obsessed with this movie and reckon it has so awesome quotes!would love to know what some of you Shag freaks think is the best quote!
"you know in my opinion marriage is just a legal form of prostitution"
-Buzz
"yeah anyway i was just telling Buzz that i was really hoping id fall in love with a girl this summer so id have someone to write to"-chip
"oh chip!"-pudge
"but ive just realised i dont need to fall in love with anybody i can just write to you"-chip
oh hell, I could go on ALL day.
"get on your shagging shoes."
"this is the MOST fun!"
"kill me now."
"Others, may cheapen themselves, but you, melana, are a flower of the south."
"LuAnn, your eyes are....emerald green."
"Your folks obviously know Pudge. Why don't we just tell 'em the truth....
We wanted to go to the beach, and meet boys and go to wild parties."
"Ya'lls the horniest bunch of white folk I eva seen!" -buzzy the maid :)
"You rape-artist!"
"I only wanna talk to her."
I HAVE THE SOUNDTRACK. Not the original soundtrack you get in stores, cause it really sucks, but I have a cd with all the songs that are actually in the movie. LOVE IT.
1963 sunfun shag contest.
where did you get the soundtrack??id love to be able to get it!
shareI actually got it from Ebay. This sweet girl made it and copied it for me. She even did a color label for the cd. So, it's not an "official" one, but it's SOO much better than the "official" Shag sdtk.
I could burn it for you and mail it to you. :)
"i used to do drugs. i still do, but used to, too." -Mitch Hedberg
oh that would be awesome!i have left my addy in your private messages.Im not sure if you live in oz so if postage is a problem let me know k?thanx a bunch!
share[deleted]
i would also love to get the soundtrack. maby you could write all the songs here so i (and probably many others) could locate the songs on my own?
shareCould you list those songs? Because I thought about buying the "real" soundtrack, and none of the really good songs are on there. If you list the songs on yours, maybe I could go download them myself.
More specifically, does anyone know the name of the song that Pudge and Chip dance to during the shag contest? I LOVE that song!
Also, my fave quote:
Carson - "You want me to go all the way up there, to a Yankee school, just so I can come over and practice free love with you every weekend?"
Buzz - "Well, not every weekend."
The song that Pudge and Chip dance to in the Shag Contest is "Stagger Lee" by Lloyd Price
shareshadowcat410.....i have been trying to find a list of all the songs in the movie. could you or anyone help me out??
share"other than that have a good time"
shareMy favorite quote has to be...
"Bevo?"-Whenever Buzz would ask anyone if they wanted a beer. I bartended my way through college, and I used that line all the time, but no one ever knew what I was talking about!!!
And then there's...
"Ya'll!! Act like you've got some upbringin'!"-Luanne yells at the girls in the car on the way to the house. I now use that on my neices and nephew when they act like jackasses!!
Oh, and then there's...
"I've got news, you're gonna lose."- Melaina tells Suette and Nadine as she walks out of the restroom stall.
Thanks to jodieandglenn!! I could go on for hours!!!!!!!
One more-
"You don't know me, you don't love me, you sure as damn hell don't want to marry me so why don't you just leave me the hell alone?"-Carson to Buzz in the broom closet.
"I come to open the house up for the senator...on account of him and yo' mama, arrivin' on a noon plane."
*Actually, that was the first quote that came to mind. I could go on and on!*
Anybody wants me can come in and get me. This ain't a drive-in.
My favorite is (and I'm paraphrasing just a bit b/c I can't remember it exactly):
"Nobody wants to get married. I don't especially want to myself but that's no reason to call off a wedding!"-Harley
I thought that was HYSTERICAL! What a way to talk the woman you "love" into still marrying you!
Inman: I marry you. I marry you. I marry you.
"If Luanne asks where I went, tell her I'm on a manhunt."
Anybody wants me can come in and get me. This ain't a drive-in.
"...I'm NOT gonna let some Dixie-Ass come down here and CRAP all over my dream!"
ha ha
From Luanne, after the party:
"I think somebody's *been* here!"
"Modern ballet is tr-ashy lookin'!"
*Just about everything Luanne says cracks me up!*
Anybody wants me can come in and get me. This ain't a drive-in.
I LOVE the whole broom closet scene-
Carson: You don't know me, you don't love me, you sure as all damn don't wanna marry me, so why don't you just leave me the hell alone?!
Buzz: I don't think I can...
AHHHHHH the look in his eyes....
And of course...
Elvira:Y'all is the horniest bunch of white folk I evah seen!
How can you leave the past behind when it keeps finding ways to get to your heart?
My friend and I watched this movie years ago (get together and watch it every once in awhile, still) and quote lines from it all the time. The other day, my daughter comes home and says, "Mom, I'm going to the homecoming dance with a boy named Harley." Out of my mouth pops, "I can't marry you Harley...I'm in love with Buzz." She was so ticked! I was so tickled! Now, every time he calls, I say that quote REALLLLLLL soft-like!
share"This is the most fun!" Of course.
"Bufford what is this contraption?"
"This boy...is Crazy!"
"Bye bye birdie!"
"Rocky watch me pull a rabbit out of hat." dude he so doesn't sound like Bullwinkle, which of course makes is funnier
"I'd have and affair with him outside of a marriage." "Melana that's sacreligious!"
"What a sweet potato."
"Beevo?" That's a classic
"And if not theirs always divorce." "Melana!"
Ah, I love this movie.
When Pudge said "Mary Pat Montgomery's the one who told me about boners" I could not stop laughing.
share"Don't ya'll think she looks EXACTLY like Mary Pat Montgomery?"
"ewwwwwwwwwww"
"Mary Pat's the one that told me about boners!"
"Ga-rooooooss!"
"It ain't a bone at all - it's a muscle. This cousin of hers dated a Clemson Tiger that sprained his in a game, and she had to massage it every time because he was in so much pain."
"....... mary pat told you that? and she always acts so innocent!"
I've had that quote memorized since before I knew what a boner was.
When Harley asked Elvira if she was fuzzy and she told him to shut his filthy mouth. I busted out laughing because he didn't mean it the way she took it.
When Pudge told Chip the Bullwinkle bit. The first time I saw that, I cried because I was so happy that they finally got together! Those 2 were so sweet together.
I loved it whenever somebody said "I'm having the most fun" or "Beevo" or when the girls would say "Melana"
I loved this movie.
"other than that, y'all have fun"
I use that one on my kids.....talk about daggers out of the eyes!
"She thought she was the bee's knees until she fell flat on her butt"
While writing "shag til you die" on the wall with lipstick.
"Have you ever been Frenched in the ear?"
"Yes"
"Have you ever Frenched a girl in the ear?"
"Yes"
That sticks out because my dad cracked up laughing at that one.
HARLEY= ARE YOU FUZZY?
MAID= YOU SHUT YOUR DIRTY MOUTH!!!
luanne= damn! damn damn! damn! damn! every damned thing has to happen when your in a damned hurry!
buzz ravanell= I'm Buzz Ravenal. Let's dance.
carson= im sorry. im engaged.
buzz= well, im sorry your engaged too!
maid= YALL IS THE HORNIEST BUNCH OF WHITE FOLK IVE EVER SEEN.
luanne= I THINK SOMEBODYS BEEN HERE!!!
LUANNE= I CANT FEEL MY TEETH!
KIDS AT PARTY= PURPLE JESUS! PURPLE JESUS! PURPLE JESUS!!!!!
"I only had half a beer, a beer and a half"-carson
"Yo, I've seen better parties in a telephone booth."-Jimmy Valentine
"I choose C, get knee walking drunk and let him go to third base."-Melana
After Luanne gives her list of rules for what not to do in her parents house..."Why, make yourselves at home!"
share"Yalls the horniest bunch of white folks I've ever seen!"
shareHOLY PAJAMAS! -Chip
share
If I'm not engaged by the time I'm 20 I'm going to kill myself- luanne
If you have to sit down, just sit on the floor- luanne
I haven't seen this movie in years, but I could think of so many more quotes!! This one's one of the few that came to mind:
Melaina: "Whuuuuut...a friend we have in Jeeeezuuuussss..."
LuAnne: "Melaina!!...Melaina?"
Melaina: "...Daddy?"
"Wakie, wakie. Eggs and bacie."
- Kill Bill, Vol. II
Carson: "I think eyeliner looks trashy!"
Malaina: "I wear eyeliner..."
Carson (slightly abashed): "Well I like the way it looks on SOME people..."
Carson: "Why don't we just go up there and say...That this was our last weekend together! And we didn't feel like going to Fort Sumter and touring goddamn colonial homes! We wanted to go to the beach, and meet boys, and go to wild parties and dance! Why don't we just tell the truth?"
Luanne: "I'll tell my parents the truth, when you tell Harley the truth."
A beat...
Carson: "I can't marry you Harley, I'm in love with Buzz."
Luanne: "They, they went all the way!"
(Buzz looks at Harley and shrugs nonapologetically. Harley swings at Buzz and misses, hitting a mirror)
Harley: "SON OF A BITCH!!!"
