"Eee! Now say 'Nuclear Wessels'." - "No."
Ah ha ha ha!!! LoveFilmed Star Trek IV & Watched it over 2 nights this weekend (don't get enough evening time to watch a full movie these days) - barely remembered it, and certainly had forgotten what complete and utter GENIUS it is!
Best Bits:
The whole schtick with Spock being all Guy From Shine on our asses from having been dead all that time.
President Beardfa'ce: It's raining in here! Bring me some flannels! And get someone to prop that window up!
3 Guys With Stick: Hi, we're 3 guys with a stick, do you want us to try to prop all the windows up?
President Beardfa'ce: No, just the 2nd one from the left. I'm sure the other windows are all unbreakable.
*Next window along smashes*
3 Guys With Stick: WE ARE SLAIN FROM NEXT-WINDOW-ALONG SMASHAGE! OH, THE IRONY!
Kirk: Spock, you'll freak the 20th Century folk out looking like that.
*Spock reaches towards his crotch beneath his Space Dressing Gown. There is a ripping sound.*
Me: Jesus, Spock, there's a time & a place...
Kirk: Bones, as a Doctor, I think you should help Scotty build a giant fishbowl.
Bones: Oh. Joy.
'Everyone remember where we parked'.
The Taxi driver being played inexplicably by Joey Pants.
'Double Dumbass on you!'
All the other crew milling around aimlessly and being handed out pocket money like a group of Brownies on Pack Holiday.
'Nuclear Wessels'. Anyone who's seen the Futurama Star Trek episode will know why this is instantly hilarious.
The whole Whale Swimming sequence is genius. Not least because Nimoy's Swimming Double is blatantly a man at least 30 years his junior. Still, it's nice to be able to believe that Spock's arse was still that taut in his later years. Put it down to all that healthy Vulcan living.
'Do you like Italian food?'
'NoYes.'
'No.'
'Yes. Yes!'
*pause*
'No.'
The Comedy Christmas music whenever Chekov was chased. Why so Christmassy? Was the little guy expecting Santa to come and save him?
'Of course he's a Russki, but he's a Retard or somethin'!' - Funniest line in the whole film.
'The brilliantly inept door guards in the Hospital - considering the cold war was still on and the navy had just caught a Russian aboard a Nuclear Wessel, they get the 80s equivalent of those two guards from Monty Python & The Holy Grail to stop anyone getting to him. We almost expected them to stand in the doorway shaking their fists as Chekov escaped.
The whole 'Hooray, we saved the Whale' Pool Party at the end. They'd just given up by that point, I reckon. I was expecting them all to start dancing the Watusi on the beach.
Hubs announcing as the 'So Long And Thanks For All The Fish' probe turned round & went home; "Then next week, the Dodo Probe turns up..."
Brilliant fun. GENIUS, I tells 'ee!
