I think I was about 13, maybe 12. Laughed so hard I hurt. My kids and their friends love it too. I also have a copy if the script, they left some real funny stuff out of that movie include a whole section where they talk about ants.

Soldier 1: What kind of ant are you talking about? There are 5,000 different species.
Arthur: You speak with the tongue of snakes, I will no more of this,
Soldier 1: Not at all. It's just that ants are my special subject. Ants, bees, wasps, all the hymenoptera, and you often get people who just bandy the word "ant" around as if it meant something. It's like saying: "I am human". It's so unspecific.
Soldier 2: Is he talking about ants again?
Soldier 1: It just annoys me, the way people hear some sensational story about an ant moving 60 times its own weight, and...
Soldier 2: He's probably thinking of termites.
Soldier 1: There you go! You're just as bad! There's 2,000 species of termite.
Soldier 2: Alright! Alright! Let me finish!
Soldier 1: They're a totally different order. They're isopteran. They're not remotely comparable.
There is a lot more, but my wife needed the computer and it would take too long on the phone. IIRC the soldiers pop up periodically and they are always arguing about ants. Not sure why they didn't use it in the movie.Cluck U wrote:BlueHen86 wrote:Soldier: Its not a question of where he grips it, its a simple question of dynamics.. a 5 and 1/2 ounce bird could not hold a 1 pound coconut,
