Can't decide between Conan and T2 for the first spot. Total Recall #3, Predator #4, True Lies #5.
Total Recall is weird for me.  I really wanted to like it, and parts of it are cool, but parts are so over the top that I got a bit turned off.  Like I remember laughing hysterically at the ending when I first saw it because it's so freaking ridiculous... I was like 12 at the time and even then I knew it was way over the top.  Also, the scene with 'CONSIDER DIS UH DIVOHCE'.... it's ridiculously campy because of how nonchalantly Arnie kills a woman who at one point he thought was his wife (and maybe she really was?  :hmm: ) and fucking and everything.  He's just like *boom* 'CONSIDER DIS UH DIVOHCE' and smirks.  I mean, wtf, that's total psychopathy right there for you, not to mention a fucking tragedy because Sharon Stone at that point was so HOTT it was ridiculous. :(

After watching that clip, I haven't the foggiest idea how that line became iconic.  :hmm:

I just don't get the True Lies love. I remember finding it pretty meh.

You hate everything made in America.

It has it's off moments (any scene with Jamie Lee Curtis) but it's loaded with gold.  The Charleton Heston cameo was dynamite.  I can't think of a single better special effects scene in any movie ever made than the Marine Harriers blowing up the evol towelheads on the Key Highway.

Yeah, but that pretty much describes every Paul Verhoeven film.

Usage spiked a little in South/East Texas around week 5 of the 2008 NFL season as well.

Poor bastard was just trying to make a play.  Win a football game.  Be a hero.  Maybe start really making people think he should start over Schaub. 


Man he really fucked all that up, didn't he?

Wasn't that part of some game where the visiting team was way the fuck down and scored like 4 touchdowns in the last few minutes of the game?

Yeah, the Colts came back big, although I don't think it was 4 touchdowns big.

When the helicopter play happened, it was 27 - 17 coming just off of a Colts TD with like 4:00 left.  He tried to fly, gave up the fumble for a TD to make it 27-24, then fumbled again inside the 20.  They, of course, immediately scored off of that to make it 31 - 27, so he then threw a game ending INT.  It was an impressive meltdown.

Edit:  I also remember Tim saying something like "THE TEXANS ARE KICKING THE COLTS ASSES!!  :blink:" just before it all went down.  Like JUST before.  :lol:
