I prefer: "Klaatu... verata... n... Necktie." - Ash, Army of Darkness Maybe it didn't save the day, but I guess it was close enough. I think Nancy Pelosi had a part in that movie... Didn't she play the She-Witch who flies around screaming "I'll swallow your soul!"?

Of course it would happen in the dark, which is where I saw all those old B-movies at the neighborhood theater on Saturday afternoons. One week it would be cowboys and Indians, the next Dick Tracy in his snapbrim hat and trenchcoat outwitting villains who, back then, still looked like villains and had names to match -- Pruneface and Mumbles and Flattop. What fun. But my favorite had to be those cardboard sci-fi epics, preferably with aliens uttering commands in unknown tongues ("Klaatu barada nikto!") just in time to save Earth.

Give 'em a happy ending every time. But then...
