The "Pants" thread

Since the old "substitute pants" list got reposted in the Star Wars forum, I thought I'd be silly and introduce a thread for substituting "pants" into lines from any well-known movies.

Example:

Patton -- "When you put your hand into a bunch of goo that a moment ago was your best friend's pants, you'll know what to do."

Predator - "What's the matter, Billy? You ain't afraid o' no pants." "There's somethin' out there, but it ain't no pants."

LOTR:TTT, Gollum - Master hurts pants, Master betrays pants. Pants should strangle him in his sleep. No, no, too risky...unless...we let pants do it... yes... Yes, pants could do it for us, right precious?

LOTR:TTT, Sam - I know. It's all pants. By rights we shouldn't even be pants. But we are It's like in the great pants, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were and sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the pants go back to the way they were when so much pants had happened? But in the pants, it's only a passing thing, this shadow, even darkness must pass. New pants will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the pants. Those were the pants that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Pants, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those pants had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't. Because they were holding on to pants.

Alas, poor Yorrick - I knew his pants

Macduff was from his mother's pants untimely rip'd!

And if Shakespeare himself never fixed on a spelling, why should we?

Because it is a proper noun. At least *that* much... get his name right!

as you have for Olivia. Must she not then be answer'd?"
