Last time I saw a rabbit he told me to "Do a barrel roll". I didn't know what it meant, so I told him to shut up. He didn't listen and proceeded to ask me to get the enemy off his tail. His tail seemed fine, so I took him to the vet because he was clearly hallucinating.

Do we already have a thread for movie cliques that need to die?
Where were you in '77?
We do have at least a couple of "You're a movie character if.." but no, I don't think we have one specifically for that.

We have a thread or two for movie clichés if that's what you meant.

Doh! I meant cliches...

Here are the three most recent ones (recent meaning they've been posted in recently, not that they were created at all recently):

Thanks!

My favorite Sierra adventure game is Heart of China.
“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”
Also, I really need to rewatch Disney's Peter Pan... or at least read the original book, or even the play (which, I must confess, I have not yet done).
“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”
Somehow I think Lucifer Davidson would be a great name for a band.
The ideal lead singer, of course, would be Zombie Freddie Mercury.
Also, suddenly I just remembered what awful theme music Star Trek Enterprise had. Even Voyager had a mesmerizing intro--thanks largely to Jerry Goldsmith's spellbinding music.
“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”
Mirror Universe Enterprise had a much better theme. ;)

That reminds me: the original outline for the TOS episode Mirror, Mirror took place in a parallel universe which was almost exactly the same as the normal one.
(In other words, it wasn't the Always Chaotic Evil Universe we saw on screen.)
The major differences were that McCoy (not Spock) had a beard; Kirk was married; and nobody had ever invented the phaser. Which led to Starfleet nearly being defeated by an alien race who never gave "our" Kirk any trouble.
Of course, when Kirk arrives in this parallel world, he promptly re-invents the phaser and saves the day.
In other words, it was very much a riff on L. Sprague de Camp's Lest Darkness Fall.

It's like we don't have a Star Trek thread.

Sounds kinda lame. I do like the idea of Alternate Kirk having a wife, though (as long as it was Janice Rand, of course).
No, it was some random nurse who had never appeared on screen before or since (or at all, for that matter).
But Frink is right. Shall we take this Outside?
As Boston Low says: "A place for everything, and everything in its place."
And one good astronaut deserves another, I'd say.

The urge to shave my head has re-emerged. Oh, if only it were July ...
I've done it and I'm fine. I'm only cold during the night.
It's not night.
I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.
Nah, I look good if I say so myself.

What else can you say and still look good doing it?
Many, many things. Do you need proof for this?
Yeah, I've been skeptical right from the start.
