Strike of the Panther (1988)
Some of the funniest lines ever in a film. Full stop.
This film has some of the most priceless quotations I have ever heard. The other review gives a rounded appraisal of this film's charms, bar quoting some of the fine examples of the English language that this film boasts.
Par example:
(Start of film - that is *prologue* and shows scenes from "Day of the Panther" in attempt to pad out running time by showing best bits from the prequel)
(Good guy has bad guy lying there, begging for his life)
Bad Guy: I have money!
Good Guy: So have I.
(Another great one - Jason Blade, The film's protagonist and all round good egg, is on a bloodthirsty rampage around a brothel striking a blow for moral decency and bad fashion)
(Jason Blade kicks down a door. Inside the room is a naked woman and a guy in a chicken suit)
Jason Blade: You're ssssssick!
This film is incredible. There is this one scene where Jason Blade and his girlfriend Gemma (She should be called Jade - "Jade Blade") are dancing with each other. Jason is the world's worst dancer, and this display is just so cringeworthy that you actually can't watch.
Jason Blade - working class hero, secret policeman and kung-fu instructor.
Mates and Music (1984)
Gary Wilmot is GOD.
Where do I start - Gary Wilmot is the most remarkable all round entertainer that lives in Britain today. If it were not for him I would never have joined the circus. He is an inspiration to us all, even after his alleged speeding.
When I contracted meningoccal septicimia I met Gary Wilmot in a dream and he told me that I was going to be fine - he was wearing his Pirates of Penzance outfit.
Mike Reid is quite rubbish though - I mean the glasses, OK, but the mullet as well and the rugby shirts - culturally the guy is all over the place.
Anyone remember Gilbert the Alien - well apparently Gary Wilmot is planning a full length feature documentary on the rise and fall of Gilbert - I mean it has to mention the time that Gilbert "accidentally" placed his hands on Paula Abdul's breasts (true!) and the secret of all that snot that was perpetually dripping away.
Anyway back to Gary. He's the greatest - anyone got a copy of his film Lazarus - contact me if you do.
