Sleep with Me - Subversion in Cinema: A Discussion on Top Gun
Sid: [[Top Gun]
You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of the greatest fucking scripts ever written in the history of Hollywood is? ].
Duane:
Oh, come on.
Sid:
Top Gun is fucking great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a story about a bunch of fighter pilots.
Duane:
It's about a bunch of guys waving their dicks around.
Sid: [[w:Pete Mitchell (Top Gun)|Maverick]
It is a story about a man's struggle with his own homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man. You've got ], all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the fucking line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew. They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.
Duane: [[w:Kelly McGillis|Kelly McGillis]
What about ]?
Sid:
Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no, no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole movie... He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's takin a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the fuck, what the fuck is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him back from the gay way, so I'll do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it. Okay, now let me just ask you - I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and everything. Now, she just got divorced, right? All right, but the REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this gay fighting fucking force, all right? And they're beating the Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they fucking land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last fucking line that they have together? They're all hugging and kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! Fuckin A, man!

Pick-up guy:
This reminds me of a joke. This guy, he comes into a bar, walks up to the Bartender and says, "Bartender, I got me a bet for you. I'm gonna bet you 300 dollars that I can piss into that glass over there and not spill a single solitary drop." The bartender says ... now one more time this glass is like a good ten feet away ... he says, "Now wait a minute. Let me get this straight. You're trying to tell me you're gonna bet me 300 dollars that YOU can piss standing over here waaay over there, into that glass, and not spill a single drop?" The guy looks up smiling and says, "That's right." The bartender says, "Young man you gotta bet!" The guy says, "Okay, here we go, here we go." He pulls out his thang. He's looking at the glass, man he's thinking about the glass, he's thinking about the glass, he thinks glass, he's thinking of the glass, think glass, thinking about his dick. Dick, glass. Dick, glass. Dick, glass. Be the glass. Dick, glass. Dick, glass. Dick, glass. And then SWOOOSH. He let's it rip! And he's ... he's pissin all over the place, man! He's pissin on the bar ... he's pissin on the stools, on the floor, on the phone ... on the bartender ... He's pissing everywhere EXCEPT the fucking glass! Right. Okay, so, bartender, he's laughing his fucking ass off, he's 300 dollars richer. He's like, "Ha Ha Ha Ha." Piss drippin off his face. "Ha Ha Ha Ha" He says, "You FUCKIN idiot, man. You pissed in everything EXCEPT the glass!! You owe me 300 dollars puta." And he goes, "Excuse me, just one, one second." Goes in the back of the bar, and in the back there's a couple of guys playing pool. He walks over to them ... comes back to the bar and goes, "Here you go Mr. Bartender, three." And the bartender's like, "WHAT the fuck are you so happy about, you just lost 300 dollars you idiot?!" The guy says, "Well, you see those guys over there. I just bet them 500 dollars APIECE, that I could piss on your bar, piss on your floor, piss on your phone, and piss on YOU, and not only would you be not mad about it ... you'd be happy.
Short Bartender:
Bad beer, bad service. Don't people know not to come in here?
Bucho: [customers enter a bar littered with corpses]
Can't you people see that we are fucking closed?

Reservoir Dogs - Choosing Names and Roles in a Heist
Joe: [pointing to each respective member]
So, you guys like to tell jokes, huh? Gigglin and laughin like a bunch of young broads sittin in a schoolyard. Well, let me tell a joke. Five guys, sittin in a bullpen, in San Quentin. All wondering how the fuck they got there. What should we have done, what didn't we do, who's fault is it, is it my fault, your fault, his fault, all that bullshit. Then one of them says, hey. Wait a minute. When we were planning this caper, all we did was sit around tellin fuckin jokes! Get the message? Boys, I don't mean to holler at ya. When this caper's over - and I'm sure it'll be a successful one - we'll get down to the Hawaiian Islands, hell, I'll roll and laugh with all of ya. You'll find me a different character down there. Right now, it's a matter of business. With the exception of Eddie and myself, whom you already know, we're going to be using aliases on this job. Under no circumstances do I want any one of you to relate to each other by your Christian names, and I don't want any talk about yourself personally. That includes where you been, your wife's name, where you might've done time, or maybe a bank you robbed in St. Petersburg. All I want you guys to talk about, if you have to, is what you're going to do. That should do it. Here are your names... Mr. Brown, Mr. White, Mr. Blonde, Mr. Blue, Mr. Orange, and Mr. Pink.
Mr. Pink:
Why am I Mr. Pink?
Joe:
Because, you're a faggot, alright?!
Mr. Pink:
Why can't we pick our own colors?
Joe:
No way, no way. Tried it once, doesn't work. You got four guys all fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black, but they don't know each other, so nobody wants to back down. No way. I pick. You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow.
Mr. Brown:
Yeah, but Mr. Brown? That's a little too close to Mr. Shit.
Mr. Pink:
Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy. How bout if I'm Mr. Purple? That sounds good to me. I'll be Mr. Purple.
Joe:
You're not Mr. Purple. Some guy on some other job is Mr. Purple. You're Mr. PINK.
Mr. White:
Who cares what your name is?
Mr. Pink:
Yeah, that's easy for your to say, you're Mr. White. You have a cool-sounding name. Alright look, if it's no big deal to be Mr. Pink, you wanna trade?
Joe:
Hey! NOBODY'S trading with ANYBODY. This ain't a goddamn fucking city council meeting, you know. Now listen up, Mr. Pink. There's two ways you can go on this job: my way or the highway. Now what's it gonna be, Mr. Pink?
Mr. Pink:
Jesus Christ, Joe, fucking forget about it. It's beneath me. I'm Mr. Pink. Let's move on.
Joe:
I'll move on when I feel like it... All you guys got the goddamn message?... I'm so Goddamn mad, hollering at you guys, I can hardly talk. Pssh. Let's go to work.

Reservoir Dogs - Debate on Tipping Among Characters
Nice Guy Eddie:
C'mon, throw in a buck!
Mr. Pink:
Uh-uh, I don't tip.
Nice Guy Eddie:
You don't tip?
Mr. Pink:
I don't believe in it.
Nice Guy Eddie:
You don't believe in tipping?
Mr. Blue:
You know what these chicks make? They make shit.
Mr. Pink:
Don't give me that. She don't make enough money, she can quit.
Nice Guy Eddie:
I don't even know a fucking Jew who'd have the balls to say that. Let me just get this straight: you don't ever tip, huh?
Mr. Pink:
I don't tip because society says I have to. Alright, I mean I'll tip if somebody really deserves a tip. If they really put forth the effort, I'll give them something extra. But I mean, this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. I mean, as far as I'm concerned, they're just doing their job.
Mr. Blue:
Hey, this girl was nice.
Mr. Pink:
She was OK. But she wasn't anything special.
Mr. Blue:
What's special? Take you in the back and suck your dick?
Nice Guy Eddie:
I'd go over twelve percent for that.
Mr. Pink:
Look, I ordered coffee, alright? And we been here a long fucking time, and she's only filled my cup three times. I mean, when I order coffee, I want it filled six times.
Mr. Blonde:
Six times? Well, what if she's too fucking busy?
Mr. Pink:
The words "too fucking busy" shouldn't be in a waitress vocabulary.
Nice Guy Eddie:
Excuse me Mr. Pink, but the last fucking thing you need's another cup of coffee.
Mr. Pink:
Jesus Christ. I mean, these ladies aren't starving to death. They make minimum wage. You know, I used to work minimum wage, and when I did, I wasn't lucky enough to have a job that society deemed tipworthy.
Mr. Blue:
You don't care if they're counting on your tips to live?
Mr. Pink: [rubbing his middle finger and thumb together]
You know what this is? It's the world's smallest violin playing just for the waitresses.
Mr. White:
You don't have any idea what you're talking about. These people bust their ass. This is a hard job.
Mr. Pink:
So is working at McDonald's, but you don't feel the need to tip them, do ya? Well why not? They're serving you food. But no, society says don't tip these guys over here, but tip these guys over here. That's bullshit!
Mr. White:
Waitressing is the number one occupation for female non-college graduates in this country. It's the one job basically any woman can get and make a living on. The reason is because of their tips.
Mr. Pink:
Fuck all that.
Mr. Brown: [laughing]
Jesus Christ.
Mr. Pink:
I mean, I'm very sorry the government taxes their tips, that's fucked up. That ain't my fault. It would appear to me that waitresses are one of the many groups the government fucks in the ass on a regular basis. I mean, if you show me a piece of paper that says the government shouldn't do that, I'll sign it. Put it to a vote, I'll vote for it. But what I won't do is play ball. And this non-college bullshit you're givin me, I got two words for that: learn to fuckin type, cause if you're expecting me to help out with the rent, you're in for a big fuckin surprise.
Mr. Orange:
He's convinced me. Gimme my dollar back!
Nice Guy Eddie:
Hey! Leave the dollars there.

Reservoir Dogs - Debate Over Song Meaning Among Characters
Mr. Brown: [[w:Like a Virgin (song)|Like a Virgin]
Let me tell you what ] is about. It's all about a girl who digs a guy with a big dick. The entire song. It's a metaphor for big dicks.
Mr. Blonde:
No, no. It's about a girl who is very vulnerable. She's been fucked over a few times. Then she meets some guy who's really sensitive...
Mr. Brown:
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... Time out, Greenbay. Tell that fuckin bullshit to the tourists.
Joe Cabot: [looking at his address book]
Toby... Who the fuck is Toby?
Mr. Brown: [[w:True Blue (Madonna song)|True Blue]
Like a Virgin is not about some sensitive girl who meets a nice fella. That's what ] is about. Granted, no argument about that.
Mr. Orange:
Which one is True Blue?
Nice Guy Eddie: [[Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna]
You ain't heard True Blue? It was a big ass hit for ]. I don't even follow this Tops of the Pops shit, and even I've heard of True Blue.
Mr. Orange:
Look, asshole, I didn't say I ain't heard of it. All I asked was how does it go? Excuse me for not being the world's biggest Madonna fan.
Mr. Blonde:
Personally, I can do without her.
Mr. Blue: [[w:Borderline (song)|Borderline; [w:Papa Don't Preach|Papa Don't Preach]
I used to like her early stuff. ] - but once she got off with that ] phase, I tuned out.
Mr. Brown:
You guys are, like, making me lose my... train of thought here. I was saying something, what was it?
Joe Cabot:
Oh, Toby's that little Chinese girl. What was her last name?
Mr. White:
What's that?
Joe Cabot:
It's an old address book I found in a coat I haven't worn in a coon's age. What was that name?
Mr. Brown:
What the fuck was I talking about?
Mr. Pink:
You said True Blue was about a guy... er.... a sensitive girl who meets a nice guy, but Like a Virgin was a metaphor for big dicks.
Mr. Brown: [[w:Like A Virgin|Like a Virgin's]
O.K., let me tell you what ] about. It's all about this cooze who's a regular fuck machine, I'm talking morning, day, night, afternoon: dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick.
Mr. Blue:
How many dicks is that?
Mr. White:
A lot.
Mr. Brown: [[w:John Holmes|John Holmes; [w:Charles Bronson|Charles Bronson; [The Great Escape (film)|The Great Escape]
Then one day she meets this ] motherfucker and it's like, whoa baby, I mean this cat is like ] in ]; he's digging tunnels. Now, she's gettin the serious dick action and she's feeling something she ain't felt since forever. Pain. Pain.
Joe Cabot:
Chu? Toby Chu?
Mr. Brown: [[w:Bubble Yum|Bubble Yum]
It hurts. It hurts her. It shouldn't hurt her, you know her pussy should be ] by now, but when this cat fucks her it hurts. It hurts, just like it did the first time. You see the pain is reminding the fuck machine what it once was like to be a virgin. Hence, "Like a Virgin.
