I think this might be my favorite series of movie cameos ever. My personal ranking is as follows...

#1 - "You know, if you stab a man in the dead of winter, steam will rise up from the wounds. Indians believed it was his soul escaping from his body."

#2 - Mikita's Manager, Glen: Anything wrong, Davy?
Davy: Yeah, I got paid today.
Mikita's Manager, Glen: Yeah, I know what that's like.
Davy: No. You don't understand. They laid me off. I got one of these.
Mikita's Manager, Glen: Yeah, I know how that feels.
Davy: Know what I'd like to do?
Mikita's Manager, Glen: Yeah I know what you'd like to do. You'd like to find the guy who did it, rip his still beating heart out of his chest and hold it in front of his face so he can see how black it is before he dies.
Davy: Actually, I was thinking of filing a grievance with the union.
Mikita's Manager, Glen: Well, the world's a twisted place.

#3 - "I'd never done a crazy thing in my life before that night. Why is it that if a man kills another man in battle it's called heroic, yet if he kills a man in the heat of passion it's called murder?"

#4 - "So Wayne, I hear you're putting on some kind of concert. That's good. People need to be entertained, they need the distraction. I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die? Why do they come to me to die?""

Hm, from the perspective of my brain about 12 hours ago, this seemed like a viable threshold for stimulating discussion. At least I tried.

It's a close call between #2 and #3, but I believe #3 is the winner because that's the one where he "steals" the movie from Wayne & Garth.

Ed O'neill has never his full due in life... did anybody watch his dragnet series?

kingfish superman ice cream (kingfish 2.0), Sunday, 18 September 2005 18:19 (twenty years ago)

I watched it! it was pretty good!

gear (gear), Sunday, 18 September 2005 18:24 (twenty years ago)

Yeah #3 is where Wayne has to interrupt him and reestablish control of the camera?

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Sunday, 18 September 2005 23:00 (twenty years ago)
