Best scene of the movie:
STOCK BOY:
Excuse me, sir, but what are you doing?
GEORGE:
I'll tell you what I'm doing. I want to buy eight hot dogs and eight
hot dog buns to go with them. But no one sells eight hot dog buns.
They only sell twelve hot dog buns. So I end up paying for four buns I
don't need. So I am removing the superfluous buns.
STOCK BOY:
I'm sorry, sir. But you're going to have to pay for all twelve buns.
They're not marked individually.
GEORGE:
Yeah. And you want to know why? Because some big-shot over at the
wiener company got together with some big-shot over at the bun company
and decided to rip off the American public. Because they think the
American public is a bunch of trusting nit-wits who will pay for
everything they don't need rather than make a stink!
MANAGER:
Get me security.
GEORGE:
Well, they're not ripping off this nit-wit anymore because I'm not
paying for one more thing I don't need! George Banks is saying no!
STOCK BOY:
Who's George Banks?

Also isn’t George Banks basically the CEO of a company that is basically a stand in for Brooks or ASICS?

I feel like they had to have him flip out. Because otherwise, the audience would side with him. $250 a head? 500+ guests? Of course he’s rolling his eyes and unbuttoning his collar.

this year will go by fast. enjoy every minute.
all those days years ago when the kids were little and a handful and I just wished the days would get easier and the kids would get a little more self-reliant.... What I wouldn't do to go back and relive some of those days. I didn't appreciate them enough.

Which dorm? Just moved my son into the dorms at lsu myself. Maybe they'll hook up and we can be in laws.

My daughter got married just over a month ago. I've literally never cried as hard as when I saw her for the first time in her wedding dress. Full on fountains. Man that was rough and great all at the same time.
Yep, when I danced with mine at her wedding I was a bawling like a baby. It's rough man

Yes. Started last spring when I began pointing out “in a year from now…” and on from there.

So true. Have to admit, I can’t look at pictures from then for too long if I’m in that mood without getting a little misty.

I’ve got three young daughters. Not at the moving out/marrying age yet, but I already know I can’t get through this movie without major tears.
We also saw fiddler on the roof in New York about a year after our youngest was born. A sadder display of a blubbering father has never been seen before or since.

George Newbern, the groom, is a LR native. Old family friend.

I’ve been married for almost 20 years and still give my father in law shite about the Chipper Chicken.

Highly recommend those that love this movie to watch the original from 1950. Spencer Tracy at his absolute best, and a young Elizaeth Taylor.
