Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Fairly soon I'm gonna watch this movie (Band of Outsiders), which I got free on VHS, which got me thinking; I can't remember the last time I watched a movie on VHS. I've recorded some stuff when there was something else on at the same time that I wanted to watch, but that was like TV episodes or something, and now that I've got this DVD recorder with HDD, I doubt I'll have much use for the VCR at all. So: If you've completely switched from VHS to DVD, what was the last movie you watched on VHS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Dead Man on Campus. I've never seen it on DVD, and me and my girlfriend were looking for a movie to watch a) wasn't a horror movie (so that eliminate 80% of my DVD collection), and b) we haven't already seen a million times (thus eliminating the rest). I browsed through some of the tapes, saw Dead Man on Campus, and popped it in. Neither of us had watched it in years, so we laughed our fucking asses off at it. ESPECIALLY Cliff. Awesome Cliff quotes: -"You guys ever get horny? Like, sometimes I just...I just gotta...HUMP THIS LAMP...or SCREW THIS COUCH, YEAH!" -"Oh, they HATE IT when you do this!" (pulls a pistol out from his glove compartment and fires it at the police cruiser chasing him) -"OH, GOD! Where do you GET THIS SHIT?!" (with an oxygen mask while being loaded into an ambulance following his fall from his porch) -"Hey, lesbos, how's it hanging?" -"Whenever I'm on fire, I remember to STOP, DROP, and ROLL! I don't just stand there screaming like some chick!" -"...so I guess a blowjob is out of the question?" (after lighting a gil's hair on fire) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 I haven't seen the MST3K movie recently, but I have it on VHS too because the DVD is overpriced, bare bones, and has no chapter stops. I had gotten the VHS for about 5 bucks from a rental store selling its VHS stock. As for actually saw--Last Action Hero. The trailer of Arnie in Hamlet is the absolute peak, but still had lots of great lines. Benedict: I wonder if you could help me? Mechanic: Sure, what do ya need?. Benedict: Well... [benedict shoots him. He listens for a while, then shouts] Benedict: I have just shot someone; I did it on purpose. [listens some more, still nothing] Benedict: I said, I have just killed a man and I wish to confess! [listens some more, someone tells him to shut up. He looks pleased] The mayor: Jack, as mayor of this great metropolis, you and I have had our little tiffs, but this is the Lieutenant Governor. Lt. Governor: Slater, here's what I... Jack Slater: [breaks the Lieutenant Governor's nose] When the Governor gets here, call me. Jack Slater (shoots several bullets at taxi...is puzzled when it doesn't explode): I think the taxis are bulletproof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 That movie is the perfect action flick, which is sorta ironic considering it's a parody of action flicks. Arnold starring in a parody of his own movies. Best one-liner's out of any non-Bruce Willis action yarn, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
