The second one is from the original Ghostbusters, when Venkman comes out of the Bah Mitzvah room after trapping Slimer. Not sure about the second one.


If I am not mistaken the first is also in Blade runner.

Hmm, never seem that. Only so much Harrison Ford one man can take.

Actually, I forgot some; "Before seeking victory, first make yourself invunerable to defeat."
"Perfection is acheived, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
"The deifference between Gods and Daemons depends largely upon where one is standing at the time."

Again, bonus points are on offer if you can tell me who said what.

Between the two of you you pulled it off!

You should really see Blade Runner. It's a bit dated visually, but it's still great.

A start? I think you mean Star. However the quote is from Blade Runner and it is light (or was it candle?), not star or start. If it is Start then I have no idea what it is from.

EDIT: I can't remember if it was candle or light. I think I may have to break out the DVD.

On a boat, Trying not to die.

I was breaking ice with a sledgehammer. My neighbors (Twin 7-year-olds) come over to ask me what I am doing. I heft my hammer, get down on one knee, and say in a quiet voice;

"Shh! I am smiting the Ice of Chaos with my thrice blessed Deamonhammer! I would leave, things are about to get ugly."

I stand up, bring the hammer behind my head and shout "FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!", swinging the hammer right into the ice.

I turn around, and the girls have run off screaming.
