I heard that Pickens' line "a guy could have a good time in Vegas with this stuff" was changed in post-production. He originally said "Dallas," but they decided to change it because of the recent Kennedy assassination.

As for dialogue, I've found that doing a Google search on a movie title and "Quotes" will get you most of the memorable dialogue.

Gotta say I love "Kelly's Heroes." It was one of our favorites when we were kids.

"Always with the negative waves, Moriarity. Have a little faith, baby..have a little faith."

I got the quotes from the "Internet Movie Data Base", type in the title of the movie, and go to the quote section.

This thread made me think. Does anyone know if the group that made the movie "Airplane" had anything to do with airplanes? It seems to me that there are alot of jokes in that movie that only people around aviation would pick up on. just a thought.

"Airplane" is a knock off of a movie called "Zero hour".

Hell is for Heros was also a good one, it showed the ugliness of war.

A rare helicopter war movie..."Battle Taxi" with H-19s in Korea.
"The Hunters"...lots of F-86s vs. F-84Fs.

Two great films...
"12 O'Clock High".
Best war film ever IMHO...not many planes though...
"Patton".

Nobody has brought up "Mission over Korea". A hoky movie about L-5's in Korea. Watch it if you can find it. Real "B" movie, but, great if you are a L-5 freak.

Was it me, or do I remember a fact like one of the Panthers used in the film is restored in a museum somewhere?
