“It’s not what you say, it’s the way you say it!”
If I had a quid for every time I’d heard that, I’d be a rich, rich man. Trouble is, it’s not exactly accurate is it? And that’s where Totes Quotes comes in. The finest film quotes transcend the performance from whence they came and have the ability to infiltrate popular culture and consciousness.
From the endlessly quotable to the words you wish you’d said yourself, each week will feature an iconic iteration. So in the words of Reservoir Dogs’ Joe Cabot…”Let’s go to work!”
With seasonal affective disorder kicking in, we take a break from being our usual, chipper selves…and as a result Totes Quotes has gone bad! Bile and vitriol are now the order of the day, as long as it’s not a work day…as this is likely to get NSFW AF!
Riding high on it’s BAFTA success, it would a shame not to celebrate Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri in all it’s potty-mouthed glory, especially when it asks the big questions:
“What’s the law on what ya can and can’t say on a billboard? I assume it’s ya can’t say nothing defamatory, and ya can’t say, ‘F**k’ ‘P**s’ or ‘C**t’.”
Neither big, nor clever! But still raises a titter.
