    [​IMG] Indeed, it did feature a young Mr. Affleck, as a somewhat psychotic senior, who - according to legend - failed his exams just so he could spend another year hazing the freshmen.

    Now, the next quotation:

    The very first laser was made using a diamond!

    And bonus points for anyone who can tell me what's wrong with that... :grin:
    Right, I'm off for some :coffee: ... need caffeine to function... :sleep:

    [​IMG] Well done Takara!

    The problem with the quote is that the filmmakers took some artistic license with history - the first laser was made using a ruby. But as only geeks like me would give a damn, I doubt it caused them many sleepless nights.

    I know I've seen this, but where? I'm almost thinking... Reservoir Dogs?
    Though for some reason I keep hearing Al Pachino saying it. Maybe because of Enaganios's idea.

    Was it perhaps Suicide Kings? Can't remember the character, though...

    I actually wouldn't know if it's any good; I've never seen it. Had to get the answer from my mother. And since "I" got it right, I shall choose this as my quote:

    - Well, what do you say, Reverend? You think a prayer's in order?
    - I was just reciting the Shepard's Prayer. Alan Shepard's prayer. Please God, don't let us screw up. Amen.

    Might be easy, might not be, don't know how popular the movie was.
