"This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels."
--Roger Ebert, who told me once that he thought we were doing good work by battling hoax belief. Though, alas, he was a JFK conspiracist.
Hah, that's funny, and for some reason (don't ask me why) it reminds me of a quote from a book I once read by English actor David Niven.
He and Errol Flynn were filming
"The Charge of the Light Brigade" a 1936 movie directed by Austro-Hungarian director Michael Curtiz; who was not exactly known for his command of the English language.
In one scene, the script called for a number of riderless horses to wander through the set. Curtiz yelled out to the wranglers
"Bring on ze empty horses". Niven and Flynn started to laugh, and Curtiz was not happy with their reaction. He responded angrily, yelling at Niven and Flynn...
"You people, you think I know f**k nothing; I tell you, you are wrong... I know f**k all"Needless to say, this just made the two actors laugh even more!!
