"Happy Gilmore"

Landmines? Random bear attacks? Mandatory beer breaks? No, only Happy Gilmore can make golf entertaining. Laudable as one of the only things Adam Sandler as done that's any good, it's got some brilliant lines in it, and some top raging and wanton destruction, including a full justified attack on a clown.

Again, excuse the atrocious hosting, the article is there somewhere

Why not? Punch-Drunk Love is a superb film, best thing Sandler has ever done.

Happy Gilmore is a quality film.

Can't get on the site though....

Gilmore is an excellent film.

The best dialogue is between grandma and Ben Stillers character.

"Young man, I wonder if I could trouble you for a warm glass of milk, it helps me to sleep."

"You can trouble me for a warm glass of SHUT THE HELL UP. Now, you will go to sleep, or I will put you to sleep - you're in my world now, grandma."

"Oh dear."

Haha yeah, he comes from nowhere, has nothing to do with anything, and is damn funny to boot.

"You just pulled landscaping duty"

I think Shooter is one of the greatest characters of all time. I love it when he makes a put and does his little shooting thing, blows his 'guns' out, and points at himself with both thumbs, "Shooter, yeah!"

Recently someone I knew was in an accident - they can't walk now, and it's all very tragic. However, they might lose their arm, and when they spoke about a prosthetic one, I saw Carl Weathers wooden hand. I'm a sick, sick man.

I came close to doing the article about Shooter and not Happy, and putting it in the ass hole section.

Shooter: "Watch out pal, I eat pieces of s--t like you for breakfast!"
Happy: {laughing} "You eat pieces of s--t for breakfast?"
Shooter: "No... I..."

There's loads of great little lines in it, and little pointless jokes, like the old Japanese lady in his apartment in the morning ("You no want breakfast?").

And Jaws, "I believe that jacket belongs to Mr Gilmore..."

"You can count on *me* waiting for *you* in the parking lot!"

Happy Gilmore, Big Daddy and Anger Management are all funny films.

Gilmore's the best by far though.

"I was the club pro here, but then they stopped me playing on the tour"

"Oh, I'm sorry, because you're black .... ?"

"Hell, no! A damn Alligator bit my hand off!"

One of the best one liners of all time.

And where he's fighting it in the pond I laughed my ass off.

"You took chubs's hand! Give it back here you dirty bas****!!"
