Dirty Harry

[thenry]

Why is he called Dirty Harry ?

[sandyRoe]

He's a stranger to soap and water.

[MarkRae]

Because he's a bad cop.

[Sipowicz]

To quote from the film, "because he always gets the Sugar end of the stick"!

[Sipowicz]

"Sugar" rhymes with hit!

[Wharton]

Dirty Harry is called because it was filmed in the winter.

Following on from an earlier thread, this is a "standard" quiz chestnut.

Q - In which film did Harry Callaghan, played by Clint Eastwood say the line "Go ahead, make my day."?

Rookies ALWAYS answer Dirty Harry whereas, of course, the answer is Sudden Impact.

[Wharton]

Q What's the name of the ship in "Mutiny on the Bounty"? - No, the other one.

the Snickers?

I know what you're thinking. Did I fire 6 shots or only 5? To tell you the truth in all this excitement I kind a lost track lost track myself But being this is a magnum 45, the most powerful handgun in the world and could blow your head clean off - you got to ask yourself 1 question ! ?

[Wharton]

jno
LOL but no cigar

[Wharton]

thenry
magnum - LOL
still no cigar

[MarkRae]

Are you talking about HMS Pandora, or do you mean the name of the ship(s) used in the making of the various films...?

[Sipowicz]

.44 Magnum!

[jno]

funny thing is, as I recall he does use the Magnum, and it doesn't blow anyone's head clean off. It was very disappointing.

[thenry]

Remember the charoot in the good the bad and the ugly ?

[Sipowicz]

Another quote from the film, "Now you know why they call me Dirty Harry, every dirty job that comes along"

[Wharton]

Ironically, The Pandora proved hopeless in its quest.

[Wharton]

thenry
this is just for you
many are called but few are frozen

[thenry]

Irony and coincidence are occasinnally misinformed !
