    Reposted from defamer where I'm not promoted:

    This is Egon Spengleri, my geoemyda spengleri leaf turtle. He is smaller than even a normal-sized twinkie, and is obviously named after one of Ramis's best roles in one of the funniest films of all time.

    I feel like 1/3 of my childhood died!

    I was named after Lacey Underall from Caddyshack. I've always been ok with that. Such a loss.

    Ghostbusters is almost definitely my favorite Ramis movie (even if he didn't direct it, he wrote and starred in it). I don't know how to put it exactly but it's hard to find a movie that nails both the humor and the sci-fi horror so perfectly, where both aspects exist in complement rather than undermining each other, in this scene especially:

    (Also it has that weird Aykroyd ghost blowjob scene, which probably holds my personal record for "longest amount of time between first watching and finally getting that this was a sex thing.")

      There's so much more than Ghostbusters that he did. I can't name them all but god damn it they were amazing.

      One of my favorite lines in any movie ever: "Because no human could stack books this way."

      I was going to say that scene where John Candy is introducing himself and telling this painfully lame story, and Ramis is in the background emphatically reacting to whatever Candy says. I wish I could find a clip.

      That's the "lean mean fighting machine" clip no?

    Knocked Up

    Ben: "I mean, I guess it worked. Like you told me not to smoke pot all those years, and then I found out you were smoking pot that whole time."
    Ben's Dad: "Not the whole time. Just in the evenings and all day every weekend."

      One of the pieces on Harold Ramis said he ad-libbed most of his role in Knocked Up, so it's as genuinely him as any movie he co-wrote where you're not even sure the moment you're sourcing came out of his pen.

      The discomfort that the kid on the receiving end of the pitchfork is feeling comes through so clearly. You can see in his eyes that he doesn't know where that thing is going and he's trying not to lose it. My favourite scene in the movie. Though the leering at the old ladies putting is up there, too.

    God, I had such a weird crush on him when I was a kid after watching Ghostbusters. He's responsible for my fascination with smart men with glasses.

    Stripes.

    "I've always been kind of a pacifist. When I was a kid, my father told me, 'Never hit anyone in anger, unless you're absolutely sure you can get away with it.' I don't know what kind of soldier I'm gonna make, but I want you guys to know that if we ever get into real heavy combat... I'll be right behind you guys. Every step of the way."
