Fabrux: "Where is a men's room?" (although it's actually "Wo ist eine Herrentoilette?" - men's room is a feminine noun, btw, I dunno why that's amusing to me); "Don't shoot, don't shoot!"; and "Ticket, sir." (However, the word's just Ticket, not Ticketen...is it from something, a show or something?)

I just watched Au Revoir Les Enfants in French class the past week. Even though there were subtitles, I dont think I looked at them at all. I even understood the dirty jokes, and my my, those 10 and 12 year old french boys have dirty minds. It takes place in WWII France, but surprisingly, all the germans spoke franch to. Oh well, still a good movie.

It's a shame the final edit of "The Last Crusade" didn't include Indy's fight with the very large gentleman shown accompanying the German officer onto the zeppelin. The man was played by the same actor who played the German chopped up by the flying wing's propeller in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and the thug crushed to death in "The Temple of Doom".

The "Don't Shoot! Don't Shoot!" is from Die Hard 3 which was of course promptly followed by McClane putting three rounds into the guy.
the "Ticket, sir" I believe is from the 1963 movie "The Great Escape" where Allied POWs attempt to escape a German camp....some of whom go by train.

Zef got it, Wiz.
Ahh, Pat Roach. Such a shame he's not in the new one.

I saw that propeller-chopping scene at some theme-park stage show...sans the chopping cuz it was kid-friendly...it escapes my mind exactly where.

I never really liked Indiana Jones. They were great movies, sure, and I think WWII and sci-fi are great things....just not when mixed. One of the worst examples of this was Ent Stormfront pts 1&2.
