It was on again tonight on AMC, RL. How many times do they have to show it before you break down and watch it?

As the Duke would say, Move Out

Every time I hear/see that phrase, I have flashbacks to Mr. Roberts. I used to like that movie until I did a cruise on USS Debuque in September of 89, that movie was on 5 times a day for 2 weeks. Took some of the "magic" out of the movie for me, although I am still oft to quote "It is I Ensign Pulver!" after knocking on the door of someone who is in on the joke.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa WHOA! are you saying that not only (had) you not seen "The Green Berets", but also haven't seen "Mr. Roberts"?

Is that what I'm hearing?

If that is the case, you'd better get to renting it. Henry Fonda and Jack Lemon at their best!
