All excellent. But, for my money, this is hard to beat (viewer discretion advised for pacifists, unpatriotic Americans, and those with sensitive ears):
Unlike my ancient predecessor, this Tullius hasn't had his hands chopped off. With hands attached I offer my thoughts on philosophy, religion, politics, and whatever else I find worth mentioning. I'm conservative religiously and politically (with libertarian leanings). I value reason and freedom but also traditions and "Oldthink." I relish being on the wrong side of history when history is wrong--part of a philosopher's job is to be unpopular. (Views given here may not represent my employers')

Undoubtedly the greatest!
ReplyDelete[Funniest? That has to be CHASING AMY - though admittedly, it is the second-to-opening-scene in that movie that takes the cake.]
Good show, Borland, good show.
I love George C. Scott, and this movie is one of my favorite war movies!
