    I seriously do not understand how Hoosiers is not tops (or at least in the top two or three) of everyone's list.

    Is everyone here from Dugger, Verdi or Terhune?

    Not having "He Got Game" on the list when some of this other crap is makes reading it a total waste of time.
     
  4. False.
    "Stealer of my friend!" "Fake Wayne." When he is mad in her office and twists the twisty lamp. Going "cuck" into the walkie-talkies. The whole conversation about whether Jack Black has ever fantasized about a man (does that include a tall man?).
    It's no classic, but it has its moments.

    Over. Kshh.
     
  6. Yeah, I was debating how to spell that.
    According to the commentary, it was actually Steve Zahn who came up with that, but they gave it to Jack Black because his character is the dumber one.
    I also like when they are kidnapping her and Black is looking in the fridge and goes, "I think I see something. Oh wait, it's nothing. You keep looking up there, buddy, and I'll keep my eyes peeled down here."

    I'm laughing at the mention of that scene. I thought it was a good movie. Certainly not great, but I laughed my ass off.

    Loved the line after Wayne and D.J. were thrown out of the party. I have no idea if this is the proper spelling:

    "Acumanahayaaa!"

    I'm just stunned Fenian a.) has seen Saving Silverman and b.) admitted to seeing Saving Silverman.

    If you're gonna include Teen Wolf, then Porky's II should be on the list.

    These lists just proves that basketball doesn't translate well to film.
