    Why did JSBB think Aldazar had seen it? Is he some sort of Mark Hamill groupie or something?

    I've looked up Slipstream and it does look like it would be the answer as it also has Robbie Coltrane, although I'm still amazed that more than one person has seen it.

    I saw slipstream, but found it sadly disappointing. Nice to see Hamill taking a different sort of role though.

    It is from Slipstream, as to why I thought the Aldazar might have seen it

    That's what puzzled me, I've seen it, but not for a long time. It just rings bells for me from God-alone-knows-where I guess. Maybe it is from Slipstream that I remember it, but it seems I've heard it more recently. Maybe I saw Slipstream again recently without noticing it.

    Anyway, enough :yot:

    I can confirm that the movie Dark Haired Beauty is looking for is called "Sleepers," and that she's correct.

    Assuming I am correct...

    "Good teacher, he seems to really care...about what I don't know!"

    Should be an easy one for all ages of SP to know.

    You reckon? I still can't get it - and I've seen loads of movies. Maybe I just don't have a good memory for movie quotes.

    another clue a commercial from the film

    "Are you fat? When you go jogging, do you leave potholes? When you make love, do you have to give directions? At the zoo, do the elephants throw you peanuts? Do you look at a menu and say 'OK!'?"

    also the crazed teacher in the movie was played by a famous standup comic who wore a beret and a trenchcoat and screamed a lot. Sadly he died in a tragic car accident after this film.

    Sounds like Back to School from your description, although I don't remember the quotes.

    Back to school with Rodney Dangerfield is right :thumb:

    Sam Kennison played the yelling history teacher everyone was afraid of.

    Might be one of the Pink Panther movies. I am lost on this one.

    No, I'm sure I know this one. It's something book related. Is it Finding Forrester?

    I think that Dark Haired Beauty is on the right track. I am pretty sure that it is NOT from one of the Pink Panther movies but I think that it was Peter Sellers who said it.

    Bingo, we have a winner! Being There it is, and one of my favorite oddball movies. I couldn't post the "I like to watch" quote, as that would be a dead giveaway.
