FULMER CUP: KENTUCKY FOOTBALL IS THE BOMB.
Sure, they're tired of being disrespected. They're also adept students of the Dan Kendra method of recreational chemistry.
If you'll remember, Dan Kendra, the Tebow of the '90s, burned himself fucking around in his home chemistry lab during his stay at Florida State. His knee blew up during spring practice, Chris Weinke took his walker into the starting spot for the 'Noles, and Kendra switched to fullback.
Kentucky safety Marcus McClinton craves bad mojo, evidently, though he displayed smarts and a lack of manners simultaneously by taking his explodophilia outside.
McClinton was charged with wanton endangerment for setting off homemade explosives. The explosives were made of dry ice that was inserted into bottles of water. McClinton suffered minor injuries to his hand when one bottle exploded in it. Police said McClinton admitted to placing the explosives.
Dry ice--the best stuff in the world in elementary school, though woe to the kid dumb enough to pick it up with his bare hand. (Don't sweat the pronoun. You know it was a he.) We toyed with it after seeing Val Kilmer bag free sodas out of a Coke machine by slipping quarter-shaped slices of it into the coin slot.
If that's the pattern here, look for orbital attack lasers to begin vaporizing SEC coaches one at a time as they lounge in their rattan lawn chairs. Urban: seek cover NOW.
One point for Kentucky despite the enviably phrased charge of "wanton endangerment." If orbital death rays follow, though, they'll walk away with this thing humming.

That’s all that matters, FC points.
As a young sprout I pilfered a hockey puck sized cake of sodium from the HS chemistry lab, took it to a local creek and tossed it in. That was nice.

“Real Genius” is one of the most underrated comedies evah evah. “I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said … ‘I drank what?’”

As a devoted fan of McClinton’s UK football-inspired rapping, I find this hard to swallow. Surely he was just getting ready to go to war with them boys.

I guarantee you he got the idea from Mythbusters.
by Todd on Mar 27, 2007 12:50 PM EDT reply actions
He should get a bonus point for doing this at a public school. I would have expected this from someone at Northwestern or Vandy, not Kentucky.
I rate Val Kilmer’s performances as follows:
1. Tombstone “I haff two guns…one fo’ each of yuh.”
2. Real Genius
3. Top Secret—“How did you get that name?” “I don’t know, my father said he thought of it while he was shaving”
4. The Saint
5. Top Gun

Whatever happened to everyone else from that movie? I vaguely remember seeing the nut-case recently in something. Did the female lead end up doing porn, or what?
I mean, if Val could go on to fame and fortune, why couldn’t she?

This movie also belongs on some kind of Top 5 list for “Most Quotable.” (I’d also put Cannonball Run on such a list, and institute the caveat that you gotta have a whole separate list for Will Farrell.)
Tebow always checks his optics.
by panhandler on Mar 27, 2007 1:22 PM EDT reply actions
1. Blues Brothers
2. Princess Bride
3. Cannonball Run

5. Breakfast Club

I knew all that hard work watching movies would be put to good use…
#13: I don’t know about anything recently, but Hollyfeld (sp?) was Delroy Lindo’s partner in crime in ‘Get Shorty’? He was killed in that movie by Dennis Farina (“Serrano’s got the disks!”, Midnight Run).
#7: That’s my favorite role of his; his Elvis was awesome.
#3: Now I know what to get you for your birthday.

Our own private reserve:
1. O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Optimal performance line: I’m gone KILLLLL YOUUUUUU!!!
2. Anchorman
Fond of “It smells like bigfoot’s dick.”
3. New hottnezz: Idiocracy
Used only in company who know what we’re quoting, but this exchange is the best:
Why are you trying to read? Are you a fag?
I’ll fag your face!
4. Hunt For Red October.
Some things in here don’t react well to bulletshhh, Ryan.
I would like to have seen…Montana…
5. Cabin Boy.
Just awesome non-sequiturs.
Now I know what you’re thinking. “What could be stranger than a big fatass floatin’ cupcake?” Heh. How about one that spits tobacco?

Ok, I realize I’m answering my own question, but the tie-in to this post is just too good.
The female lead (Jordan) was Michelle Meyrink. IMDB doesn’t even have her picture. But the next to last movie in her filmogoraphy (which ends in 1988) is…

#19. A well-timed “Nonsense, ah’m in mah’ prime” works well in many drinking scenarios, too.

It’s also good to see that what I would consider “goofing off at work” the authorities consider “wanton endangerment.” After reading the article, of course a kid from Ft. Campbell would have a fascination with exploding things.

Don’t forget “Blazing Saddles”-

Mitch showed up as an engineer in Mission Control in Apollo 13. It was a decent movie, but the Mitch sighting was by far the best part of it for me…

Beanik – I knew that, really!
Though I suggested it, I’ve now realized it’s impossible to make list of 5 Most Quotable Movies. 25, maybe, or 50.
The only way I can get down to a managable number is if I list entire bodies of work on each line, instead of just a single movie (i.e. Zucker-Abrams-Zucker 70s, John Hughes’ 80s, Will Ferrell 00s). Even doing that, I’m still at about 14.
And we haven’t even gotten into non-movie quotables. Does anyone else conflate 16 Candles and Gauntlet the video game? “Donger needs food… Badly.” Maybe that’s just me.
Props to you guys who come up with these things all the time; it’s harder than it looks.

Cabin Boy? Motherfucking Cabin Boy?

These pipes are CLEAN!!!!!
here’s the rest of the list though:
Caddyshack
Stripes
Anchorman
Lebowski
Hudsucker Proxy
Hoosiers (Got ‘em good, didn’t I coach?)
Rushmore
and for unintentional comedy, Death Wish 3 and Star Wars (But I was going to Tosche Station to pick up some Powere Converters.)
Jeeebus, what a whiny bitch Luke is….

Gauntlet: “Elf shot the food!”
Holliday: “Because if I thought we weren’t friends… I don’t think I could bear it.”
and
“This is a nocturne.”
“A whut?”
“A nocturne. You know, Frederick fucking Chopin.”
and on the Star Wars bit: I once spent a day sitting across from Uncle Owen at a comic convention (used to own a studio.) I think he was ready to kill us by the end of it, because we spent most of that day loudly repeating Luke’s whiniest lines:
“But I was going to Tosche Station to pick up some Power Converterrrrrrrs!”
“But why can’t we go see Master Yoda nowwwwww?!”
Met Jerry Bulloch (Boba Fett) and hung out with Caroline Blakiston (Mon Mothma) for most of the weekend. Good people.

No “Most Quotable” list is complete without Raising Arizona:

“We released ourselves on our own recognizance.”
“Well, sometimes I get the menstrual cramps real hard.”
“Why ain’t you breast feedin’- you appear to be capable.”
“Awful good cereal flakes, Mrs. McDunnough.”
“Dammit, H.I., the sun don’t rise and set on the corner grocery!”
“That’s your whole raison detre, ain’t it? Findin’ microbes and shit?”
“I want Nathan Jr. back- or whicheverthehell one of ’em they took!”
