I don't normally cry in real life. In fact, since becoming a teenager, I have cried a total of 3 times. This is why I love going to the movies for a good cry.

You've cried at films in theaters three times since you've become a teenager?

No - sorry, I am the king of clarity

That’s irony!

In real-life situations I don’t usually cry. I can recall only 3 times I’ve cried in real life since I turned 13. Now, give me a dying Ali McGraw and a suffering Ryan O’Neal, and the tears flow...

There's more than one movie version of Dune?

There should be.

1984

 

I really liked this movie, it's an amazing adaptation. I was very happy they produced a BluRay with the bleach bypass version of the film.

 

But the book just has so much more. I quip everything I need to know, I learned from Nineteen Eighty-Four

Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Bladerunner 2049) is signed to make a new adaptation of Dune. I'm cautiously excited.

Maybe someone should start a thread about movie-sourced quips. Probably very revealing.

 

Top of my list would be Steel Magnolias.

• I'm not crazy, I've just been in a very bad mood for forty years!
  
• He's a real gentleman! I'll bet he takes the dishes out of the sink afore he pees in it!
  
• If you don't have anything nice to say, come sit by me.
  
• All gay men have track lighting. And all gay men are named Mark, Rick, or Steve.
  
• ..... is a moron. I'm not even sure he has opposable thumbs.
  
• You are too twisted for color TV.
  
• ....is so confused, he don't know whether to scratch his watch or wind his butt!

Are you describing yourself or the movies?
