    I have to agree with Kam here. Michael Keaton was amazing, but Adam West rules the roost.

    Whaat? It was ham acting :eek: Michael Keaton, now THAT was a classy batman...
    Hugh Jackman could pull it off well I think.
    any truth to the rumor that the next batman is Christian Bale (Reign of Fire)?

    Of course it was ham acting! That's why he's great! Anyway, on topic, If Zurga doesn't go soon, someone may need to keep it going.

    Sorry to been keeping you waiting, I've passed out, am thinking of going to AA meetings. Thanks for witholding the IJ.

    Again a softball.

    Anyway Adam West was probably the best batman all things considered.

    :yot: What is softball? Is it like baseball?

    That one's no softball. I have no idea.

    Off topic: a softball the ball used in the game softball which is 90% the same as baseball but the ball is slightly bigger and is pitched in an underarm rather than sidearm action. Canada, USA, Japan, Australia and, bizarrely, New Zealand are some of the world's top softball teams.

    I am pretty sure that is from The Art of War. A perfect example of a poorly written action-espionage-thriller, made in Canada on a small budget (most of which probably went towards Wesley Snipes' salary) and subsidized by the Canadian taxpayers. ;)

    Yes it was from The Art of War despite of Canadian Taxpayers and ol' Adam West.

    JSBb take it away.

    An :yot: P.S. Is curling the national sport in Canada or is that hockey? And would you like it to be hockey?

    And for the record I never said it was perfect.

    Actually the official national sport of Canada is lacrosse although hockey is definitely our unofficial national sport.

    Oh, and I never said that I didn't like The Art of War - trust me poor writing and low budget are a feature of many of my favourite films.

    This is way too easy but I can't think of anything better right now.

    So I've noticed by the movies you post quotes from :p

    As for the answer: Heat.

    Such a practical guy that DeNiro ;)

    Yes it is from Heat. Kind of a dead give away when the title of the film is in the quote. Oh well, I have something a little more interesting for next time. ;)

    This is similar to what Aldazar did with his last turn.

    "It wasn't me! It was the one-armed man!"

    It's NOT from The Fugitive :p

    Aaargh. I'm sure I heard it as a spoof in a movie somewhere.

    Didn't Ace Venture utter it once in one of his movies?

    My guess would be Wrongfully Accused but I am sure any number of spoof films had one-armed man lines.

    Yeah, could have been a whole number of them. The Wrong man might be one of them?

    Oh, my bad :eek: I'd only heard it in Ace Ventura. I'll be sure to choose a more memorable quote next time. Your go Apeman

    <Edit>

    Okay, It's been days so I think I'll have to post just to keep the thread moving.. to redeem myself for that bad quote, I'm throwing a softy :p
