Ladies and gentlemen, as collected by Pajiba, here are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pajiba.com\/guides\/the-100-greatest-movie-insults-of-all-time-the-video.php\">The 100 Greatest Movie Insults of All Time<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My general and unordered thoughts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I&#8217;m not really sure the <em>Gone With the Wind<\/em> line really counts as an insult, but it&#8217;s too much a classic to leave out.<\/li>\n<li>I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;d forgotten about the Monty Python line until they threw it in.<\/li>\n<li>Similarly, the <em>Princess Bride<\/em> and <em>Empire Strikes Back <\/em>lines simply had to be included. At least they got those out of the way early.<\/li>\n<li>Maybe it&#8217;s just because his best work was before my time, but I had no idea that Steve Martin had such a gift for put-down jokes.<\/li>\n<li>I don&#8217;t remember that &#8220;jerk-off&#8221; insult from <em>The Big Lebowski<\/em>. Clearly, I need to see that movie again.<\/li>\n<li>If <em>Dodgeball<\/em> has more great line deliveries like that from Rip Torn, then I <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">really<\/span> need to finish that damn movie.<\/li>\n<li>I love Cartman&#8217;s style in that South Park clip.<\/li>\n<li>As a forum moderator, I&#8217;m pleased and amazed that I don&#8217;t recall seeing that <em>Billy Madison<\/em> clip before. Given all the stupid shit that gets said online, the internet needs more of that particular insult.<\/li>\n<li>Not sure about that <em>Casablanca<\/em> line. I&#8217;m sure there must be a better insult <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">somewhere<\/span> in that movie.<\/li>\n<li>I can&#8217;t believe that in all the history of the Marx Brothers, that <em>Duck Soup<\/em> clip was the best they&#8217;ve got.<\/li>\n<li>Great to see <em>Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang<\/em> getting some recognition. There&#8217;s a movie that needs more love.<\/li>\n<li>Never got the point of that stupid line from <em>Napoleon Dynamite<\/em>. Hell, I never got the point of <em>Napoleon Dynamite.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Thank you, Marcia Gay Harden, for that wonderful bit of despicable comedy relief in that bleak, bleak movie <em>The Mist.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Ah-nuld, a sci-fi high concept and badass one-liners all collide to give us that little piece of awesome that was the <em>6th Day<\/em> clip.<\/li>\n<li>Can anyone do crazy like Gene Wilder can? I think not.<\/li>\n<li>Not that Chevy Chase isn&#8217;t already doing a great job on Community, but I&#8217;d love to see him do something like his <em>Christmas Vacation<\/em> clip on the show.<\/li>\n<li><em>In the Loop<\/em> got multiple mentions, I see. Nice.<\/li>\n<li>Another repeat performer is Gunnery Sergeant Hartman of <em>Full Metal Jacket<\/em>. Deservedly so, I think you&#8217;ll agree.<\/li>\n<li>John Wayne gets multiple shots, just because he&#8217;s one of the all-time great badasses.<\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;ve never seen <em>Glengarry Glen Ross<\/em>, but I&#8217;m humbled by how many times it got worthy entries here.<\/li>\n<li>Les Grossman only gets one? There had to be at least two or three worthy entries from him in <em>Tropic Thunder.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cinema history at its finest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":734,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p3uOb3-6n","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/734"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=395"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/395\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":441,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/395\/revisions\/441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moviecuriosities.fmuk.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
