It's true. We live in an entertainment culture. We refer to movies to shorthand almost any message in real life, like “I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse” when we are talking business or if we are planning a return visit maybe we affect an Austrian accent and state that “I’ll be back” and don’t even get me started on romantic lines. That said, I was asked by someone if I had any sure fire lines that I would recommend since Valentine’s day was approaching. As rom-coms are not my usual fodder, all I could offer was 5 movie lines that you should never open with on a first date…
1. It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.
2. In space no one can here you scream… it’s the same in my basement. (Okay I added the last part.)
3. I see dead people
4. The power of Christ compels you.
5. You’re not going to eat those people are you?
Anyway, good luck with that and Happy Valentine’s Day!
