Peter O'Toole was perfect casting. I just love how they got one of the greatest actors ever and he nailed it just like everything else he ever played.

As a kid in the UK on its release, I refused to watch and hated the idea of The Iron Giant, because the adverts made it clear that it was a shameless ripoff of The Iron Man, a book I loved.

When I was much older, I found out it was an adaption - not a ripoff - and The Iron Man had been renamed The Iron Giant for its US release (I guess to avoid confusion with the more famous Ironman?).

Why they didn't make it clearer in their UK marketing that it was an adaption of a well beloved children's book (or just renamed it back to The Iron Man for UK release), I'll never know.

PS. Have watched it now, enjoyed it a lot.

It helps that the The Iron Giant is an adaptation completely divorced from The Iron Man, because the author Ted Hughes was a total oval office.

Vinny's everything in Atlantis, particularly how he got into demolitions, ten - eleven seconds tops line. He's got the right mix of deadpan professionalism and loves-this-too-much-to-be-sane.

And Kronk is another one where every line is gold, but I think I would have to go: "you know, that doesn't make any sense."

Oh I see! This must be the Bad Opinion Zone!

Hughes was abusive to his wife Sylvia Plath, to which some attribute her depression and suicide shortly after separating with him.

I hate to say this, but the painted backgrounds in The Little Mermaid are absolutely awful.

The Little Mermaid is kind of ugly in general, IMO. I do enjoy it, but not for the way it looks.

On the other hand, I watched The Fox and the Hound tonight and dang that film has some beautiful backgrounds (and is just super good overall).

How did I forget Professor Rattigan? Vincent Price is an utter joy to listen to.

Hard to say which is the best one, his explaining the trap, bidding his minions to continue singing his praises, or how he repeats Fidget's statement to lighten the load before tossing the bat off.

Took me a while to think of any lines that actually really stuck with me, but I can think of a few now, wouldn't ya know.
  • "YOU! ARE! A! TOYYYYYYEEEEEEEE! YOU AREN'T THE REAL BUZZ LIGHTYEAR, YOU'RE AN- AGH, YOU'RE AN ACTION FIGURE! YOU ARE A CHILD'S PLAYTHING!"
    "...You are a sad, strange little man - and you have my pity. Farewell!"
  • "And He shall smite the wicked, and plunge them into the fiery pit!"
  • "Not so fast Jafar - aren't you forgetting something? You wanted to be a genie, you got it - and everything that goes with it! Phenomenal cosmic powers; eeeeetty beety living space!"
  • "And I say "Zangief, you are badguy - but this does not mean you are bad guy!""
And on a far-less-iconic note:
  • "Hm, and I will betcha you don't have a warrant to get in, hmm? [sarcastically] Darn it! It's a bummer~!"
I mean, a lot of those lines are clever on their own, but the delivery was just nailed for the lot of 'em.

Really, that entire scene.

The make-up scene as well. Apparently not all of the takes had Ginnifer Goodwin breaking into tears during it, but using a take in which she did is partly why that scene works as well as it does.

The "Them" line really surprised me the first time I watched the film. I figured it would be a cute, fuzzy animal movie in a simple parable but they really went for it.

That scene, and the OST's score from that scene, really elevated the movie into one of, if not my favorite recent Disney movies. It totally helps that Jason Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin are great in their roles.

I always enjoyed the "HOLY SMOKES HE'S A TOON" line from Who Framed Roger rabbit.
The line is pretty plain on its own but Valiants delivery of making it sound horrific was great.

(and the stop motion flattened Judge doom always did freak me out)

Bob Hoskins is just perfect in that movie. He really sells that the toons are both believable and unbelievably annoying at the same time. Its great.

Also, I'm partial to the line "Oh my GOD ITS DIP!!!"

Its such a strange movie.
