Daily Dialogue — February 16, 2014

“Yes it’s true. This man has no dick.”

— Ghost Busters (1984), written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is sarcasm, recommended by blueneumann. Today’s suggestion by @mbconnband.

Trivia: In the DVD commentary, Ivan Reitman says he received a call from William Atherton complaining that the movie ruined his life. The character of Walter Peck was so hated that people would talk Atherton as if they were giving the character Peck a piece of their mind. Apparently more than once, physical fights had been started with Atherton in bars.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Which actors delivers sarcasm the very best? Bill Murray has to be up there because of his absolute deadpan manner.
