Favorite AHDN moment: Opening credits, George face plants onto the sidewalk at full speed.

Second favorite: George's scene with the idiot TV producer/fashion guy. "You can be replaced!" "I don't care!"

Third favorite: John "snorting" Coke on the train.
Listen to that sustain!

Best Thing Overall about AHDN: It's so very very English.

I think my favorite is when Paul's grandfather is out gambling (at the same club as James Bond from the beginning of Dr. No, no less) and he sees the woman, or parts of her anyway, and says "I bet you're a great swimmer." The entire film is just amazing. One of my top 10 and that's saying a great deal.

I think my favorite is John cutting the tailor's measuring tape: "I now declare this bridge...open."

My favorite scene is when the cops chase them all into the precinct station, they all stop in front of the desk to catch their breath, The Sgt. asks John "Are you all right now", John turns, looks at Paul and George, they nod "yes" and then they take off again.

Reporter: "How did you find America?"
John: "Turn left at Greenland."

George: "He's very fussy about his drums. They loom large in his legend."

John: "Give us a Kiss."

..... actually every freekin line and every freekin moment in that movie is my favorite.

"Why me?" .... "Why not you?"

"You're a window-rattler son" John to Ringo

"I'll bet you're sorry you won!" Ringo to "Lassie"

Another vote for the whole movie...I never get tired of watching it.
