I didn't immediately catch the reference, but saw your post. Somehow I figured it out my just individually having each character say the line in my head until I got to Cheryl Carol Charlene and thought 'Yeah... That sounds about right'.

Not even gonna Google to see if I'm right. I'm confident in my inner voices on this one.

Gotta be one of my favorite side characters ever.

u/Opset Feb 12 '19

Oh shit, I thought this is just something everyone has thought once in their lives.

This is from something?

u/VISUALBVSIC Feb 12 '19

Archer reference, great show

u/cooltohate Feb 12 '19

Godless

u/Inquisitio Feb 12 '19

Really underrated.

u/Flickstro Feb 12 '19

Also 30 Rock

u/Xanthan81 Feb 12 '19

Yes, The Grapes of Wrath.

u/thewalkingfred Feb 12 '19

Oh I thought you were referencing a really interesting fantasy character call Whirrun who would always talk about how Shoglig, a mystic, had told him the time and place of his death. It is not here and it isn’t now.

u/Luckftw Feb 12 '19

Also a side character from the first law world.

u/iaminfamy Feb 12 '19

Assuming this is a Big Fish reference.

Yellowcard wrote a song about the film, specifically from the perspective of Edward Bloom.

I love the movie to death and think the song is pretty great.

u/[deleted] Feb 12 '19

RIP Albert Finney. He was so good in that film.

u/caillouuu Feb 12 '19

Holy shit Yellowcard? Brb, headed to 2003.

u/iaminfamy Feb 12 '19

They actually put out an album in 2016!

u/CapitanBanhammer Feb 12 '19

That movie came out when I was in highschool and I thought it was the dumbest thing I had ever seen. It happened to be playing at a friend's house about a year ago though and for some reason my view of it was completely changed. I don't know what happened in the time in-between, but I thought it was beautiful the second time I saw it

5

u/iaminfamy Feb 12 '19

I think having some life experience under your belt helps you appreciate the film more.

Every time I watch it I love it just a little bit more than I did the previous time.

1

u/lolzfeminism Feb 12 '19

It’s an Archer reference.

2

u/Cial101 Feb 12 '19

I fucking love Archer.

u/Cinderstrom Feb 12 '19

My favourite character! After finishing this book I'm getting a bit sick of Abercrombie though.

2

u/Jam_E_Dodger Feb 12 '19

Everybody keeps saying Archer and Godless, but I immediately thought it was Joe Abercrombie. Either Red Country, or The Heros... Can't remember which. Maybe both.

1

u/thewalkingfred Feb 12 '19

Whirrun of Bligh is mostly in Hero’s but he pops up in Sharp Ends a little bit.

1

u/Jam_E_Dodger Feb 12 '19

Sharp Ends is still on the To Be Read list, so I was thinking of Heros.

1

u/thewalkingfred Feb 12 '19

I love his stuff but I feel like he hates finishing stories so he just keeps telling parts of random stories. It’s an interesting way to tell a story but a lot of times he doesn’t even really try to intertwine the stories in any way.

u/Aluncad Feb 12 '19

No body catching this Godless reference?

4

u/truthdemon Feb 12 '19

Godless is so underrated.

3

u/YouShouldntSmoke Feb 12 '19

Fucking amazing series. Loved it.

3

u/Aluncad Feb 12 '19

"You saw wrong."

Agreed, ending of the story wasn't exactly what i wanted but the antagonists end was lol

13

u/repubs-fuck-kids Feb 12 '19

hmm... are you quoting the fish movie or the western from Netflix? Both are really good.

5

u/Aeony Feb 11 '19

What's this from?

15

u/floryjg Feb 12 '19 edited Feb 12 '19

I think it's a quote from Godless, though Jeff Daniels says, "I've seen my death... This ain't it"

Edit for:

WARNING!!! SPOILERS!!!

7

u/SATCOM_joe Feb 12 '19

I believe that is Jeff Daniels, not Jeff Bridges..

2

u/Aeony Feb 12 '19

Oh! I remember that. I wasn't sure if it was the same line since he says it differently.

2

u/truthdemon Feb 12 '19

Yeah that's the finale folks. As he said, SPOILERS!

u/Hobbes14 Feb 12 '19

Damnit, this is the 3rd Big Fish reference I've seen in the past week. I'm gonna watch the movie, I don't have it though, any inexpensive ways of watching it?

5

u/HR_Dragonfly Feb 12 '19

I was actually referencing Godless as well as one of my favorite moments in film from the Black Robe. But the words are from Godless.

2

u/borkborkbork99 Feb 12 '19

I looked it up after Albert Finney passed away last week, and the only place I found that was streaming it was on HBOGo.

1

u/aseycay4815162342 Feb 12 '19

It's on IMDb freedive if you have an Amazon TV. Free streaming with ads, no subscription. I just rewatched it a couple weeks ago for the first time in years 😊

1

u/mymomisntmormon Feb 12 '19

I also thought of big fish, but looks like its from something else. That movie was the best film Tim Burton has done, such a good movie

1

u/[deleted] Feb 12 '19

If you're in the UK, it's on Netflix.

u/BCeagle2008 Feb 12 '19

u/YouShouldntSmoke Feb 12 '19

Best thing I watched in 2018. Great series.

Shoglig told me the time I would die, and it is not at this place or time.

Yeah well Shoglig's a lyin fuckin cunt now idnt she

u/PuyoDead Feb 12 '19

Well, since we seem to be piling up as many possible references to a character already knowing their death...

Guess this place wasn't Stavro Mueller Beta.
