Thanks - yes, I know some movies fairly well. And this one IMO rates 10/10 on the quotability scale
Hey, here's more (admittedly not from memory):
Mrs. Blackitt:
Why do they have so many children...?
Mr. Blackitt:
Because every time they have sexual intercourse they have to have a baby.
Mrs. Blackitt:
But it's the same with us, Harry.
Mr. Blackitt:
What d'you mean...?
Mrs. Blackitt:
Well I mean we've got two children and we've had sexual intercourse twice.
Always cracks me up

maybe i know the greek title sooo could you tell me the script ???
There really isn't a script, so to speak. It's more a series of skits, in the guise of exploring birth, life and death, sort of. I believe they used most of the film's budget for the movie in the lavish "Every Sperm is Sacred" musical number, a great send up of "consider yourself at home" number from the musical Oliver.
Everybody!!!
"There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhist.
There are Hindus, and Mormons and then,
There are those that follow Mohammed,
But. I've never been one of them.
I'm a Roman Catholic,
and have been since before I were born,
And thing they say about Catholics, is
They'll take you as soon as your warm...
You don't have to be a six footer,
You don't have to have a great brain,
You don't have to have any clothes on,
Your a catholic the moment Dad came!
Because...
Every Sperm is sacred, every Sperm is great,
If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irrate."
Sorry, I have that song on CD.
Some people are like a slinky. They might not be good for anything, but its fun to watch them tumble down stairs. &&

Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.

LOL! So true... As Giger said once, a single child is a charming creature, but a bunch of kids...that can be creepy (e.g., Sanitarium, chapter 2 )
Also c.f. Village of the Damned, Children of the Corn, the twins in The Shining (eek!!). Kids are horrid!
(also, any film starring Maculay Culkin. )

And do read "WD" if you get the chance, it's wonderful.

And because my above quote might be slightly difficult, here's a really easy one:
"And this is the machine that goes 'ping'!"
Of course, don't forget the 'adventure' game of this film! Not exactly the best gaming experience you'll have, but if you are a fan of python, which I am, it's just great fun interacting with the classic dialogue.
Same goes for the Holy Grail game which I finished recently - the beginning had me on the floor.....
****Spoiler!*****
Obviously you have to search for the Holy Grail in the game and after the initial credit sequence there's an image of the Holy Grail to click to start the game. When you do so a voice proclaims...
"Well Done! you have found the Holy Grail! Thanks for playing!"
and it dumps you back to desktop!
***************
To conclude:
"Maitre d': Good evening sir and how are we today?
Mr. Creosote: Better.
Maitre d': Better?
Mr. Creosote: Better get a bucket. I'm gonna throw up."
and perhaps slightly more topical considering current world affairs......
"So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
Because there's bugger all down here on Earth."
I'm off to find the fish.

How very appropriate
So, is anyone gonna say the name of the movie?
And what about my other quote? Is it really so hard? I'll give you guys two hints (yes! two!) then: It's a French movie and there's an adventure game (not terribly good one I think) based on the movie.

You mean the hints were enough? The answer is correct of course. By Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro.

I like "Just one Monsieur! It's wafer thin!" - and what happens then

Heh, you need to select your friends more carefully
Sure, it's disgusting and sick, but that's the point! It's perfect! Live Organ Transplants is pretty good too...

Great quote! We use it constantly in everyday life I rather like your implicite suggestion of calling it ' the other movie'. Sounds a bit like ' The scottish play'....
Oooo, Godfather must be so frustrated!

The whole film is just sheer fun! It's so over the top that it isn't nauseating anymore ...

You still don't know which movie it is or have you found it out yet?
Guys, it's really awful! Since this thread I am constantly singing:

We're fairly incorruptible,
Sailing on the wide accountancy"

It's still the same movie, Godfather!! And most certainly not Popeye.... I thought by now you would have understood that this film means serious fun business!

Right (although the full title would have been even better). And now a related trivia question: Who was originally supposed to play the role of major T.J. "King" Kong?

Originally Peter Sellars was to play Major T.J "King" Kong, which meant him playing a total of four roles in the film. However Sellars breaking his leg meant that Stanley Kubrick had to find another actor for the role, the excellent Slim Pickens. It's really kind of hard now to image Sellars in the role. It is also the only Stanley Kubrick film that I like, and one of my favorite films of all time.
