Best Line Ever!!


"Don't you suck your teeth at me young man, I'm not one of yo' bitches from the Baltimore Low Rises, ya feel me, I'M YA *beep* MOTHER!!"

Kristin Scott Thomas delivers true comedy gold in that line, and she is one of the last actors in the world you would expect to hear that from. Tis so dunny lol.

Yeah that line was funny, but i liked Ewans line "Stupid Idiotic Man" :D

When talking about how they don't know anyone that goes to church and then Ewan says they go to Target (yes, in Europe it's a different store). I found it exceptionally funny because of the commercialism of the statement.

But yeah, the mom was hilarious throughout.

In the British version they said Tesco. Doesn't exactly apply to all Europeans, though (or better-off British who would probably choose something else).

But I like the whole initial pitch especially at the end when Fred is talking over Harriet. Referring to the salmon as they would migrate toward the Indian Ocean singing "Step we gaily onward go; heel to heel and toe for toe". Followed by the actual song as Fred is dancing home before he catches himself.

I chuckled at his idea of sinister satellite's getting the measurements for his suit.

"I'm filled with Scotch, bitterness, and impure thoughts!"

I just like it where Ewan goes 'up your arse with a meter ruler'. Thank you Betty!!! Not sure I would watch this again but I did enjoy it and I'm glad I saw it.

T: What's your position?
P: upright, head turned slightly to the left.
T: Why do I bother??!!

Robert: "Forgive me for not ending up dead in a ditch."
Fred: "I don't think I can accept your apology."

reply

That was my favorite line too.

Dr. Alfred Jones: I love her.
Capt. Robert Mayers: Does she love you?
Dr. Alfred Jones: I don't know now. Yesterday, you weren't alive.
Capt. Robert Mayers: Well, I apologize for not being dead in a ditch.
Dr. Alfred Jones: I don't think I can accept your apology.

I liked Patricia's dialog with her car:


Car: "State command."
Patricia: "Shut up."
Car: "State command."
Patricia: "Shut up!"
Car: "State command."
Patricia: "Shut up!!!"

I think they have a love-hate relationship.

That was a The Wire reference??!
Bloody hell I seemed to have missed the actual details of the line but thought the delivery was brilliant!!

Actually KST is one of the actors I would expect to be given and to deliver such a line. She's a comic genius with her acerbic enunciation and one of my favourite actors to boot. Loved her in this.
I give my respect to those who have earned it; to everyone else, I'm civil.
