"I came to America in 1914 - by way of Philadelphia. That's where I got off the boat. And then I came to Baltimore. It was the most beautiful place you ever seen in your life. There were lights everywhere! What lights they had! It was a celebration of lights! I thought they were for me, Sam, who was in America. Sam was in America! I didn't know what holiday it was, but there were lights. And I walked under them. The sky exploded, people cheered, there were fireworks! What a welcome it was, what a welcome!"

"Who said names were supposed to be easy to say? What are you, a candy bar?"

Description

OK, I finally saw this cult classic probably 10 years ago and it was by far one of the trippiest movies I've ever seen. And it stars Sean Connery running around in a loincloth, ponytail and cheesy 70's porn 'stache! It was so bugged out I can't even begin to recall the story line, so here it is from a reviewer on Amazon:
"A bewigged Sean Connery is Zed, a savage "exterminator" commanded by the mysterious god Zardoz to eliminate Brutals, survivors of an unspecified worldwide catastrophe. Zed stows away inside Zardoz's enormous idol (a flying stone head) and is taken to the pastoral land of the Eternals, a matriarchal, quasi-medieval society that has achieved psychic abilities as well as immortality. Zed finds as much hope as disgust with the Eternals; their advancements have also robbed them of physical passion, turning their existence into a living death. Zed becomes the Eternals' unlikely messiah, but in order to save them--and himself--he must confront the truth behind Zardoz and his own identity inside the Tabernacle, the Eternals' omnipresent master computer." -Paul Gaita

Idiocracy

Description

"Unaware of what year it was, Joe wandered the streets desperate for help. But the English language had deteriorated into a hybrid of hillbilly, valleygirl, inner-city slang and various grunts. Joe was able to understand them, but when he spoke in an ordinary voice he sounded pompous and faggy to them."

"The #1 movie in America was called "Ass." And that's what it was. For 90 minutes. It won four Oscars that year, including best screenplay."

"Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator: It's got what plants crave! It's got electrolytes! What are electrolytes?! I don't know! But Brawndo is full of them! That's why it's like a Monster Truck you can pour into your face!"

Fahrenheit 451

First to recommend

Description

"Well, it's a job just like any other. Good work with lots of variety. Monday, we burn Miller; Tuesday, Tolstoy; Wednesday, Walt Whitman; Friday, Faulkner; and Saturday and Sunday, Schopenhauer and Sartre. We burn them to ashes and then burn the ashes. That's our official motto."

1984

First to recommend

Description

"If you want a vision of the future, Winston, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever."

"In accordance to the principles of Doublethink, it does not matter if the war is not real, or when it is, that victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous. The essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labor. A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. In principle, the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects. And its object is not victory over Eurasia or Eastasia, but to keep the very structure of society intact. Julia? Are you awake? There is truth, and there is untruth. To be in a minority of one doesn't make you mad."

"The issue's not whether you're paranoid, Lenny, I mean look at this shit, the issue is whether you're paranoid enough."

"No plan is perfect, Lenny. Hey, cheer up. World's gonna end in ten minutes anyway."

Logan's Run

First to recommend

Description

Logan's Run takes place in the distant future, in a hedonistic society where people live until age 30 and then are "renewed" (read: terminated) in a ritual called Carousel, a one for one cycle of birth and death controlled by the state. The only other option after turning 30 is to run, and there are hunters called Sandmen who will try to stop runners as they attempt to flee to a mythical place called Sanctuary.

Logan 5 is a Sandman until his 30th birthday approaches and he decides to run.

"We waited for you, Neville, so you could see this: The end. The end of all you done. You see, none of it was real. It was illusion. Your art, your science, it was all a nightmare. And now it's done. Finished. My brethren, our task is nearly complete. He was the last of those who brought the punishment to us. We have cleansed and purged his world. Now we must build."
