"I need to get more diamonds, from my hideout." 3

I've never actually heard this line uttered but it's pretty fantastic sitting there on the page. The comma makes it work.

That and the unnecessariness of the second clause. Of course he keeps his diamonds in his hideout.

"Allow me to break the ice. My name is Freeze. Learn it well. For it's the chilling sound of your doom."

this one amuses me because it's so belabored yet it scares absolutely no one

latebloomer, Monday, 31 March 2008 23:10 (sixteen years ago) link

and arnold's delivery of it just makes it even more unwieldy and ridiculous sounding

latebloomer, Monday, 31 March 2008 23:11 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm going to watch the Rifftrax version of this tonight

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 31 March 2008 23:12 (sixteen years ago) link

amazing in a "completely incomprehensible and nonsensical from one shot to the next/I can't believe this got released by a major studio" kinda way

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 22 May 2008 18:11 (sixteen years ago) link

The Rifftrax is also definitely worth it.

the timeline goes like this iirc

--McBain says "Ice to see you" as general Arnold parody in 1994
--Batman and Robin comes out in 1997, and I end up saying "Ice to see you" to my friend like 100 times before movie comes out, pretty much every time the preview airs, annoying the piss out of him.
--I watch movie (sucks) and that line doesn't actually appear in it.

y'all wasted yr votes

Also, watching this clip reveals plenty of other candidates. And it looks like it's not "Everybody chill!" but "All right, everyone! Chill! Chill! Chill!"

Still think "hideout," though having no ice references, was robbed.

Doctor Casino, Friday, 5 June 2009 05:14 (fifteen years ago) link

This is my favorite Batman movie!

John Simon's review (from what I remember) contained one of his all-time funniest descriptions: "...like watching a Halloween-themed gay pride festival."

And this insight:

"The way beautiful women are almost systematically demeaned and made ridiculous in this film (more so than usual) betrays, it would seem, an anti-hetero stance."

The latter quote is also ironic because I think the screenwriter lives in Provincetown, MA.

"I need to get more diamonds, from my hideout."

vs.

[Hudson Hawk has just decapitated a villain]
"Looks like you won't be attending that hat convention, in July."

the comma makes them both.

I just came to say that as one of three proud voters.

Haha from the screencap I thought this was going to be a clip from some indie skit making fun of the movie, not clips from the movie itself.

Yeah I was loving that review.

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 24 July 2011 19:30 (thirteen years ago) link

oh this is totally worth seeing. thankfully i was old enough when it came out to appreciate the 0_o factor rather than be indignant at the Seriousness of Batman being tarnished or some bullshit, like i prolly woulda been a few years earlier.

now i have to go get some more diamonds, from my hideout.

"kick some ice" should prolly have won this poll, imo

Love the delivery on that one, he really savors it.

Doctor Casino, Monday, 25 July 2011 15:27 (thirteen years ago) link

Was "Have an ice day!" too prosaic for Goldsman?

Race Against Rockism (Myonga Vön Bontee), Monday, 25 July 2011 19:27 (thirteen years ago) link

Lots of missed opportunities really - - "Buy one, get one FREEZE!" "Watch out, Batman! You'll catch your death of COLD!" "Goodness glaciers!" "There's SNOW way!" "Take a COLD shower!" etc etc.

Also could have done self-referential stuff doing cold variants of classic Arnold lines - - "Get to the chiller!" Sigh.
