LMAO, me and my dad are sittind down watching this movie right now. This is such a classic :)

I wish I could just go off like him one of these days :p

Pardon me, but that's bullsh!t. You see, I don't think anything's wrong with the street! I think you're just trying to justify your inflated budgets! I know how it works! If you don't spend the projected amount this year, you don't get the same amount next year! Now, I want you to admit, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STREET!

Bad news. Your little car's gonna drown. And you're gonna die, wearing that stupid hat. How does it feel?

:laugh:

One of my favorite movies of all time. An ordinary, working-class man finally snaps and decides not to put up w/all the daily BS anymore...especially with the woman that took his child away.

It's good in much the same way that GnR's "One in a Million" song is good. Tightass people don't it and get their panties all in a bunch about it. Not a perfect movie though, but Douglas and Duvall carry it very well.

That woman was his ex-wife.

it's disturbing that you have respect for people, fictional or otherwise, that threaten and/or harm women.

OK, you've spoken your opinion. :cookie: We all have our opinions and feelings about real world events or fictional events. It is what we actually do in real-life that matters. Period.

One of my all-time favorite movies. Hit on so many valid points. Lots of classic lines as well.

You think I'm a thief? You see, I'm not the thief. I'm not the one charging 85 cents for a STINKING SODA. You're the thief. I'm just standing up for my rights as a consumer.

That was the best part...the typical 10 year old in LA knows how to use a rocket launcher :D

I've been through the old "It's 10:32, no more breakfast" thing too. Heheheh....

That nazi in the store was screwed up though. Also, Robert Duvall's wife in that movie was annoying as hell!
