I came in from playing in the snow and saw that Boxer was enjoying a day at the movies. So here's my contribution.

Okay, this is one I have never seen! But what a way to go!!??!!

Karl said...

Pam: It's a classic. Yeah, it brings a whole new meaning to the term "going out with a bang"

Kubrick was never as loose, as assured, or as downright great, as he was with this movie. By the time I got to Eyes Wide Shut, though, I wanted to blow HIM up.

Hey! You played and you played WELL. Great scene. My brother used this clip for one of Movie Nights. GREAT pick. Thanks for participating.

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room.

I love Slim Pickens and he gets 2 nods in Movie Clip Wednesday (Blazing Saddles being the other). Peter Sellers and George C. Scott were really good in this too.

I couldn't get anything to show..

Karl said...

Moi: I can't really say I'm a fan of his other films, Space Odyssey was OK.

Boxer: Thanks for thinking it up.

Buzz Kill: You have a real talent for remembering lines for movies, I had forgotten that line until you brought up.

Jaque Sue: I'm not sure what's wrong, it works for me. If you go to Utube, search for: Doctor Strangelove, dropping the bomb. It's pretty fun to watch, I love the way he holds onto his hat at over 500 knots.

boneman said...

wait...I didn't know we were supposed to be doing these!
She just started it last Wednesday...
Dang! LATE AGAIN!
(somebody put that on my stone, eh?)

Karl said...

K9: Hell of a buzzer at the end of the ride.

Kym: While that might work with a horse, once he left the bomb bay, stopping was out question;)

Troll: Play on the names really was a hoot.

Boneman: Well...if one could manage to be late for one's own funeral, it would be a good thing right?

Kymical Reactions said...

just stoping by to say:

We've got trouble! Right here in River City. With a capital T that rhymes with P that stands for pool!!!!

rage said...

I haven't seen this personally, but the Simpsons does a mock of that clip when the guy is riding the torpedo.

Karl said...

Kym: trouble, trouble, trouble;)

Kitty: Hope you get a chance to see the movie, it's a Hoot.
