Worst line in a Spielberg flick-
"You turkey!" - Richard Dreyfuss in Close Encounters of the Third Kind after being cut off by another automobile.

And there's my one and only Thanksgiving post.  Happy Turkey Day, Richard Dreyfuss.

"That doesn't look so scary....more like a six-foot turkey!" - The fat kid in Jurassic Park
Then Alan Grant proceeds to scar him for life by describing how a velociraptor would disembowel him. HAPPY THANKSGIVING, especially Canada.

i personally don't see a need for it anymore. from A.I. on, spielberg has gotten better and better with each movie he makes.

Actually, I think I might agree with you, here. I'm a longtime Spielberg-doubter, but I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Catch Me if You Can, The Terminal, Minority Reportand even much of Munich (I realize that list isn't in order). I personally agree with J. Hoberman about Schindler's being Spielberg's nadir for various important reasons. But Munich was quite something in lots of sections (though that parallel-action sex scene should be in the dictionary under "pretension," and that's coming from someone who will sit through any impromptu Antonioni marathon you'd ever care to put on). Brilliant costumes/locations/international-espionage glamor, and not a total political brain-sieve like I've so often found Spielberg's "seriousness" to be (do we have Tony Kushner to thank for that?).
