Either intuition or a memory of a previous Matt Maroon article makes me pretty confident that it is the Big Lebowski.
I guess if you only own one movie, that's a pretty good one.
...I must be significantly older than Matt, I guess.
Pulp Fiction and Napoleon Dynamite are pretty high up my list for sure. Pulp Fiction might actually be number 2.
"Don't cross the streams"
"It would be bad"
"Yes, have some."
"I don't have any Tylenol, but I do have some acetylsalicylic acid."
"Listen... do you smell something?"
"Where do the stairs go?" "They go up"
The last one usually isn't quoted directly. Rather some variation, such as "I wonder what's behind that door." "A room."
It would be bad: You have to use it in the proper context as a gross understatement. As in every atom in your body exploding at the speed of light would be bad. True, the same line has been used as an understatement in other movies, but the Ghostbusters instance sticks out for some reason.
"'Cause it's different than us see? 'Cause it's from outer space. What are you asking me for? Ask him"
"I realize you gentlemen have been through a lot, but if you can find the time I'd rather not spend the rest of the winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!!"
It does occasionally occur to me that perhaps I'm having the wrong types of conversations.
from Donnie Darko (cult favorite - if you haven't seen it, rent it, watch it, and spend 2 hrs afterwards reading on the Net to figure out what you just saw)
For example, I just downloaded and watched "Jackie Brown" in a window while I was fiddling with Python stuff for work. My "Jackie Brown" urge is pretty much satisfied, to the point where it is unlikely that I will want to watch it again in the next year or so. For "Jackie Brown", it is simpler for me to just snag it off a tracker than to purchase a copy, since I have no interest in watching it all that often.
Interesting read. Definitely made me think about what films I have on disc, and which ones I download, and what delineates the two.
