Number 4 All Time Quotable Movie Characters

Number 4 All Time Quotable Movie Characters

4. Ricky/Trent (Vince Vaughn's characters from Swingers and Made)

My mate Rob loves the Movie Swingers, he gets so excited that, when the opening sequence starts, he starts throwing air punches and laughs himself silly.

I like it alot too, I especially like the parts where Trent says "money"

Like "You are so fucking money and you don't even know it.."

That's so money.

Really though, Vince Vaughn is given free reign on the scripts of these two movies, mainly because John Favreou (spelt wrong no doubt) is one of his good friends. He pretty much just goes off on a tangent at every opportunity, which makes the dialogue written for Swingers and especially Made so unique.

In many cases, good lines are all in the timing and the delivery, most comedians would tell you that.. you can say something and if you say it in a certain way at a certain time it is hilarious, yet if you say the same thing at the wrong time it is downright stupid and probably insulting.

Here are a few examples of good and bad timing..

The Line

"That's dead funny"

Good Timing

Everyone is standing around in an Anatomy class at University studying a Cardava when someone trips over and falls into the Cardava making it fall to the floor with its hand on its crotch.

Funny Guy "That's dead funny."

Everybody laughs, except the guy who fell over, who looks slightly embarrassed.

Bad Timing

Everyone is standing around in an Anatomy class at University studying a Cardava when someone trips over and falls into the Cardava, making it fall to the floor with its hand on its crotch. The person who tripped, hits their head on the table and falls to the ground, dead.

Idiot Guy "That's dead funny."

Everybody looks horrified, except the guy who fell over, who just looks dead.

------

I love a good tangent.

Anyway, Vince Vaughn has some classic lines in these movies like

"He's the guy behind the guy, behind the guy."

"What about me coach, didn't I have heart??"

"I'm not gonna much good to you.. I'm gonna take a break.. be twenty, thirty minutes"

"I'm sorry man, its been a long day, we are tired, there's no problem.. Get out, Get the fuck out"

Most of those lines are probably wrong, but I don't have a very good memory so meh.

I WILL NOT BE SWAYED BY POPULAR OPINION!!
