How would Stephen Fry have said it?

DanGerMus · 24-01-2009 1:25am #1

Was watching Jonathan Ross earlier guests included Stephen Fry Tom Cruise and Lee Evans.

Anyway during the interview with Fry they got on to how he would have delivered the lines of cruise in Jerry McGuire

First was something like "Excuse me but would you kindly exhibit the money?"
second was "You had me at 'Good Morning Madam'"

i lold. So what lines would you like to have seen/heard Stephen Fry delliver in his own Special well spoken way.

Lock them and Load them Gentlemen! Oh and of course the ladies may join in aswell.

Random much?

Biggins · 24-01-2009 1:27am

Eh?

O right... He should have delivered the line "How soon are you quitting?"

Sorry - did not turn on - Cruise and Woss - two twats too many for me!

Similar thing happened to Roger Moore on Graham Norton a few year back, Graham had a photo of him suggestively shaking a bottle of champagne in the back of a limo with the spray quick-shutter frozen.

Moore interrupts, completely deadpan, in his best Fry-ish droll, 'it went off in my hand'

Stephen Fry in Scarface would have delivered the line thus........

"Give greetings to my diminutive acquaintance."

one is humorous in what way? One is humorous akin to a circus entertainer? One amuses you? One causes you to chuckle? One is present for the purpose of amusing you? What is one referring to with regard to humorous? How is one humorous?

One's materfamilias always informed one that existence bears similarity to a receptacle of confection - There is always an element of uncertainty about the manner of item one is going to receive.

A little bit of artistic licence is fine, but really he should just be reading the lines as in the script.

True. Maybe it would be more apt to ask what if Stephen Fry had written the script. Also some people seem to be leaning towards Shakspeare. To be honest though i like the thread and it's going roughly in the direction i had hoped with a little miandering in betwixed.
So in conclusion i'll allow it, it is my thread after all

.

Thanks for the input though my Young Indonesian Coffee Friend it is most greatly appreciated as usual.

How would Stephen Fry have said it?
