Movie Madness Monday 111: Edmond Rostand edition

It's a new week, which puts us one Monday closer to summer break! Look how profound I have become! Whoo!

So for this week's MMM, I will leave the Planet of the Apes for just a moment and head to the Planet of Plays That High School Kids Don't Read Anymore, updated through one of my favorite "stand-up guys"-- a wild and crazy guy, even.

Please put your quotes in the comments section! Please tell me I am not the only person who loved this movie so much that I have watched it over and over!


"Personal: 'Well, here we are-- just the three of us!'"

"Polite: 'Would you mind not bobbing your head? The orchestra keeps changing tempo.'"

"Sympathetic: 'Awwww, what happened? Did your parents lose a bet with God?'"

"Naughty: 'Um, pardon me, sir, some of the ladies have asked if you wouldn't mind putting that thing away.'"


"I notice you don't have any tattoos. I think that's a wise choice. I don't think Jackie Onassis would've gone as far if she'd have had an anchor on her arm."

"You said you didn't want a coat!"
"I was being ironic!"
"Oh, ho, ho-- IRONY! Oh, no, no-- we don't get that here. See, people ski topless here while smoking dope, so irony's not really a high priority. We haven't had any irony here since about, oh, '83, when I was the only practitioner of it. And I stopped because I was tired of being stared at.

"I wanna look like--- Diana Ross!"
