If you had given away the connection, I would likely have guessed it.
Lethal Weapon, Gary Busey!OK, the movie was D.C. Cab with Gary B. as the connection.
Not a great movie, but it has some funny spots and many faces that people who lived through the 70s/80s would recognize including: Busey, Mr. T, Max Gail ('Wojo' from Barney Miller), Adam Baldwin (Jayne from Firefly/Serenity, Animal Mother from Full Metal Jacket and tons of other), Marsha Warfield (Night Court), Paul Rodriguez and Bill Maher.
Moving on...still connected by Busey...
1: Hey, look friend, let's just cut the ****. Now we both know why I was transferred. Everybody thinks I'm suicidal, in which case, I'm ****** and nobody wants to work with me; or they think I'm faking to draw a psycho pension, in which case, I'm ****** and nobody wants to work with me. Basically, I'm ******.
2: Guess what?
1: What?
2: I don't want to work with you!
Oh boy!Lethal Weapon it is! You're up @FoxInfinitySunset !
Oh boy!
K, I'll keep the connection secret but it's probably pretty obvious given who is in LW.
#1: Well, they're Indians. They probably just stole the ponies!
#2: Not everybody's like you, Mrs. [#1].
#1: What is it with you and Indians anyway?
#2: Oh, nothing. I try and shoot one a day, if possible, before noon. How 'bout you, Coop? I figure it's their fault for being on our land before we got here.
Winner!I'm guessing Maverick, with Gibson being the connection.
It rings a bell but I can't quite reach it. Another from the same flick?No guesses yet? Want me to post up another one that may be easier?
I see you are right. I forgot all about that movie until now. I recall it was hilarious.It's been a while, and I dont remember either line, but based on the theme, and James Garner as a connection, I'm going to guess that's My Fellow Americans.
I thought this one might have been in your wheelhouse, Ted.I knew I'd seen this, had to break down and look it up. kicking myself for not knowing this.
that line alone brings tears to my eyes. what a great movie. I was never moved to see the sequel, however.This is about as close to a giveaway as I can get, I think...
"Captain, it is I, Ensign Pulver, and I just threw your stinkin' palm tree overboard! Now what's all this crud about no movie tonight?"
