It could grip it by the husk.

 

[Grady]

I waive this steel book in your general direction.

 

[Tino]

I think you’re all being repressed.

Only by a European swallow. African swallows are non-migratory.

You have to know these things when you are King.

Well I didn’t vote for you!

I didn't think we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.

You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship.

 

[Tino]

We can do this forever.

 

[Allansfirebird]

We can do this forever.

 

[dpippel]

We can do this forever.

 

[Tino]

Well, I guess I could stay a bit longer….

Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate?

Lest we forget, here is a village-sourced list of things that float in water:

• Bread
• Apples
• Very small rocks
• Cider
• Great gravy

• Lead

The 2K Blu-ray was not the Director's Cut and this one isn't saying it either, so don't expect the Director's Cut if it doesn't say. What, the curtains? No, I never upgraded from my Director's Cut DVD because of this. And I do have the Laserdisc of it too...

That's crazy.

I had to go to YouTube and look this up after I read your reply.

I never knew this footage existed in the film.

Grover Crisp is pretty damn good at researching and compiling this kind of stuff. This probably won't make the 4k cut, but the question is, why not?! Sony could have hit it out of the park by putting together the ultimate cut of this film, that is unless, it was deliberately cut as it was not meant to be included.
