Memorable Lines By Supporting Players

Double Deal Decker · **on:** February 01, 2008, 05:21:36 PM

Perhaps the two best remembered lines uttered by supporting players in the shorts are:

"This game, I think she is crook!!" Bud Jamison in "Whoops! I'm An Indian." (1936)

and
"Come down outta there, Tar-zin!!!" Marcia Healy, ( Ted's sister ), in "The Sitter Downers."(1937)

Others, anyone ?

Three Stooges films have some incredibly funny lines that no fan can forget. Here are some more:

From Disorder in the Court:
Moe: "You're in a court, not in Clancy's pool room! (bonk) Sit down!"
Curly: "I'm a victim of soicumstance"
Larry: (slap) "Sit down!"
Moe (to Larry): "Who are you hittin'?"

From Horses' Collars
Curly: "Moe, Larry, the cheese"

From Rockin' Thru the Rockies
Curly: "A lizard, I mean a blizzard"

From Dizzy Detectives
Curly: "It's real. A real chimanypanzee!"
Larry: "That's no chimp, ya chump. That's a gorilla!"

From "Crash Goes The Hash"-

Bud Jamison: "Such levity, you remind me of the Three Stooges!"

Curly: "Hey, that's an insult!"

"Knives are quiet!" Phil Arnold, from Pardon My Backfire (Largely due to the action that follows).

"How ya fixed for blades? Ya better look!" The Parrot, from "The Hot Scots".

Here are some Supporting Player Lines I think are awesome

"You'll forget all about love when I marry you." Phil Van Zandt to Christine McIntyre in Squareheads of the Round Table

"This house has sure gone crazy!" Dudley Dickerson in A Plumbing We Will Go

"How dare you look like someone I hate! *SLAP!*" Connie Cezan to Larry in Tricky Dicks

and of course the legendary...

"Hold hands, you lovebirds!" Emil Sitka in Brideless Groom

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #5 on:** February 02, 2008, 05:37:13 AM

Great choices, Justin T !!! I must be an imbecile to have forgotten about both Dudley Dickerson's "This house has sho' gone crazy!!" and Emil Sitka's "Hold hands, you lovebirds !!!" But, that is the great thing about the shorts. There is such a wealth of material that one can't remember everything in one breath. Another favorite line of mine by a supporting player is,..."HEY !!! DROP THOSE DUCKS!!!" (Richard Fiske in "Boobs In Arms." (1940) ) Sadly, Fiske was KIA in WW2 in France in 1944.

Ok, all you "knuckleheads" out there, let's keep this thread going !!! Support the supporting players by remembering their lines !!

...."You know, I've a feeling I'm going to fall for you." (Vernon Dent to Larry {in drag as Moronica}), "Higher Than A Kite", 1943)

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #6 on:** February 06, 2008, 05:19:44 PM

"Yeah,....an THIS NITWIT swallowed the diamond !!!"

Christine McIntyre, ( referring to Shemp), to Kenneth MacDonald in "Crime on Their Hands."

Two of my faves from Pop Goes the Easel:

"I said come in!" -art teacher, as his door is being hit with balls of clay

"Is this the clay department?" WHAM! -poor old man at the door

....and some from Three Little Beers:

"Nothing like golf to keep a man physically fit." -Bud Jamison and the manager
"I just hired three new men, and everything is going to be OK" -manager

curlysdame · **Reply #8 on:** February 07, 2008, 07:50:24 PM

One of my favs is from Bud Jamison as 'Pierre' in "Whoops, I'm An Indian!" .... "And now for the grand surprise!"

Oh, JEEZ!

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #14 on:** February 10, 2008, 11:12:31 AM

Re my James C. Morton quote earlier about having someone under contract that looks like a gorilla, Jane Hamilton, ( as "Mirabell" ), replied,..."No, not even your relatives."

JazzBill · **Reply #15 on:** February 10, 2008, 04:38:48 PM

Connie Cezan in Corny Casanovas, " I knew you were coming so I baked a cake "

curlysdame · **Reply #16 on:** February 10, 2008, 05:15:05 PM

just remembered another one: June Gittelson as 'Minnie' in False Alarms. Referring to Moe driving the Captain's car, "Oh boy, and he's got a car! C'mon girls, let's go places and eat things!"

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #17 on:** February 12, 2008, 07:19:52 AM

...."No, no. Not the heart. It's the head."...

Vernon Dent, ( referring to Curly ), in "A Bird In The Head." (1945)

Gino Corrado in "An Ache In Every Stake" (1940)

...."Young man, what's wrong? You act as though the 'Sword of Damocles' was hanging over your head."

Symona Boniface in "Half-Wits Holiday" (1947)

Yeah....said with a Brooklyn honk!

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #21 on:** February 15, 2008, 07:59:34 AM

Yeah,...the "You stole our girls, you horse thieves!!", by Cy Shindell is a great line.

Fake Shemp · **Reply #22 on:** February 15, 2008, 10:41:30 AM

Also, a classic line from PAIN IN THE PULLMAN, said by Paul Pain (James Morton?), "JOHNSONNNNNNN!!!!" and then Johnson (Bud Jamison) bumps his head on the top bunk. ROFL!

Double Deal Decker · **Reply #23 on:** February 15, 2008, 03:18:02 PM

Yeah,..."His,..I'm Paul Pain, the 'hearthrob' of millions!" , led Larry to ask, "What's a 'hearthrob' "? Curly then replied,..."A pain in the neck !!"

Dog Hambone · **Reply #24 on:** February 17, 2008, 03:48:01 PM

One of my favorites is in "From Nurse to Worse" when Vernon Dent as Dr. D. Lirious tell the hospital staff to take Curly to the operating room and "prepare him for cerebrial decapitation".

Also, in Half-Wits Holiday, it either was Vernon Dent as Prof. Quackenbush or Ted Lorch as Prof. Sedletz (offhand I don't recall) that stated, "There is definite evidence of vacancy of the cranium."
