Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987) Written by John Hughes http://movieclips.com/f2us7-planes-trains-and-automobiles-movie-going-the-wrong-way/ Screaming Driver: Holy shit! That guy's on the wrong side. He's going to kill somebody! Screaming Driver's Wife: Oh, my God! Screaming Driver: Hey! Hey! Neal: Hey, what's going on? Del: Some joker wants to race. Screaming Driver: Turn around! Neal: Don't race. It's ridiculous. Del: All right, come on. Let's go. Let's go. Screaming Driver: Put your window down! Neal: He wants something. Del: He's probably drunk. Screaming Driver: You're going the wrong way! Neal: What? Screaming Driver/Wife: You're going the wrong way! Neal: He says we're going the wrong way. Del: Oh, he's drunk. How would he know where we're going? Neal: Yeah, how would he know? Thank you. Thanks a lot. Terrific. Del: Thank you. What a moron.

FYI, Teddy - I can't get movieclips.com to play without a Facebook login (which I don't have, nor do I want). I suppose this is one of the "improvements" that's been bundled in with their name change to 'Zefr' and new round of venture capital funding. What a shame.

PS I can get the embedded clip in the post above to work, but not your link, or anything direct on their site.

I know, it's been like this for a while. I addressed it in a thread earlier this year: http://gointothestory.blcklst.com/2012/05/talismans.html Here's what I wrote: I emailed Movieclips and received a reply almost immediately: We’re temporarily testing this functionality to better market the site. You can always create a fake facebook account. Additionally, just because you connect with facebook doesn’t mean you have to have everything you watch autoshare. If you want to turn sharing off, go to your top right of your facebook page where the arrow is, click on the arrow, then on account settings. On the left side is a tab called APPS, click on this. You will see Movieclips.com (and other apps). Click on Moviclips.com and it will open larger. Where you see the line that reads “POST ON YOUR BEHALF”, change that to read “ONLY ME”. Now all the facebook connect does is verify you are a real user. Additionally, you’re also welcome to view our content on youtube at http://youtube.com/movieclips I agree with you about the Facebook Login. Movieclips is the only reason I signed up with them. I don't like it either and I don't use Facebook for anything else. I guess we'll see what happens with the new Zefr thingamajing.

Thanks for the reply and all the info, Teddy. I had missed your original comment. My fingers are crossed that their temporary test comes to an early termination. Are you aware that Facebook tracks your browsing activity, on other sites, even when you logged out of Facebook? Or at least they used to (I've lost track of them). This article lists several steps you can take to protect your privacy (at the bottom): EFF on Facebook Cross-Site Tracking.

Yes. It is scary. It's also why I don't use my real name...

Roman Holiday (1953) Screenplay by Dalton Trumbo (originally uncredited) and Ian McLellan Hunter and John Dighton, story by Dalton Trumbo (originally uncredited) http://movieclips.com/TC6dp-roman-holiday-movie-the-mouth-of-truth/ They arrive in a small, dark building. They walk inside and up to a large stone carving of a face in the wall. JOE. The Mouth of Truth. [He stands on one side, Ann the other. Irving watches from behind, taking out another cigarette.] The legend is that if you're given to lying, you put you're hand in there [points to the mouth] it'll be bitten off. ANN. Ooh, what a horrid idea. JOE. Let's see you do it. She looks up worried, but seeing Joe looking at her feels a resolve and, tentatively, she puts her hand towards the mouth. Irving, "lighting" his cigarette, looks on. Ann moves her hand, closer and closer but, losing her nerve at the last minute with a giggle, she pulls it back. ANN. Let's see you do it. JOE [he looks worried for a moment, then finds his nerve] Sure. Joe takes a step forward, moving his hand onto the lip of the mouth. Ann, unblinking, leans forward from the tension. Joe slides his fingers into the mouth and then his hand up to the wrist. Suddenly he gives out a loud cry, pulling back, as if the mouth has hold of his hand and won't let go. Ann screams and rushes to his side, pulling at him from behind. Joe takes out his hand, apparently severed at the wrist and Ann screams in fright, putting her hands over her face. Smiling, he lets his hand spring open, out of his sleeve. ANN [laughing, as Joe takes her in his arms as she throws herself toward him, playfully beating her fists at him] You beast! it was perfectly alright! You've never hurt your hand! JOE [letting her go] I'm sorry, it was just a joke! Alright? ANN [laughing still] You've never hurt your hand. JOE [calming her] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Ok? ANN [regaining her composure] Yes. JOE. Alright, let's go. [They turn to leave and he cries out, jumping away from the Mouth] Look out! Ann screams, running out of the building. Joe follows her, laughing, followed by Irving.

You have to include the greatest comedy set piece of all time: the pie fight from The Great Race. It builds and builds and launches the film into the finale (and The Great Leslie remains almost untouched throughout). [gets hit in the face with a pie] Prince Hapnick: [tastes pie] umm... brandy! Throw more brandy, throw brandy! More brandy! Brandy! [gets hit again with a pie] Prince Hapnick: umm... rum! I never mix my pies! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0BOOgW7rHE

Father of the Bride (1991) - written by: Frances Goodrich & Albert Hackett and Nancy Myers & Charles Shyer I love this scene because a) Steve Martin and b) the wedding finally takes its toll on the poor bastard... George: I'll tell you what I'm doing. I want to buy eight hot dogs and eight hot dog buns to go with them. But no one sells eight hot dog buns. They only sell twelve hot dog buns. So I end up paying for four buns I don't need. So I am removing the superfluous buns. Yeah. And you want to know why? Because some big-shot over at the wiener company got together with some big-shot over at the bun company and decided to rip off the American public. Because they think the American public is a bunch of trusting nit-wits who will pay for everything they don't need rather than make a stink. Well they're not ripping of this nitwit anymore because I'm not paying for one more thing I don't need. George Banks is saying NO! Stock Boy: Who's George Banks? George: ME! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYIHLUxzRr8
