"The New Year After The Apocalypse" or "Join Me In Reciting Movie Quotes!"

[Seil]

So I know it wasn't the apocalypse we were thinking of. (Or in my case hoping for.) But, there's a new year a-coming. The big 2013. I once heard a comedian complain because 2009 was the last year for those novelty eyeglasses.

Enough joking around. Now it's time for serious business. I was wondering what your favorite movie is. Think about it. No, not that one, the one with less boobs. There you go. That's it. Then again, you could probably use your booby movies for this exercise and it'd be just as entertaining.

I want you to think of your favorite movie. Think of your favorite line from said movie. Say it out loud. It could be "Welcome to Earth." It could be "You shall not pass!" or "THIS IS SPARTA!"

Whatever it is, I want you to list your movie, list your quote, and say it out loud. Everyone else, I want you to say it out loud too. Say it loud, say it proud. Whatever anyone posts, you should probably say it out loud. Even if you're at work, or in a coffee shop, or in another situation where it could totally be embarrassing. People will post their favorite movie lines, and everyone else will say them out loud. Why? Catharsis, humour, rule of awesome...

Here's mine:

But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

You stopped being you. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you're no good. And when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow. Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that! I'm always gonna love you no matter what. No matter what happens. You're my son and you're my blood. You're the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, ya ain't gonna have a life.

I really do like the Rocky movies

Jenny: I wish I could have been there with you.
Forrest: You were.

Lt. Archie Hicox: Well, if this is it, old boy, I hope you don't mind I go out speaking the king's?
Major Dieter Hellstrom: By all means, Captain.
Lt. Archie Hicox: There's a special rung in hell reserved for people who waste good scotch. And seeing as I might be rapping on the door momentarily...

Also, Mauve, please tell me you listen to the Beyond Belief segments of Thrilling Adventure Hour. If not, well, happy new years present.
