My New Favorite Movie Line

 

We have just recently watched The Pink Panther twice, and my new favorite movie one line part of a scene is most decidedly:

 

Inspector Clouseau is talking to the owner of all the casino’s and his cell phone rings the obnoxious little song that everyone has as their ringtone.  Come on.  You know the one.

 

Anyway, his cellphone rings, and he reaches to answer it (with a vase stuck on his hand), and as he does so, he says,

“It is my personalized cell-phone tone-ring.”

 

First, of course, is the fact that the ringtone is so not personalized.

 

Next, is the fact that he is calling his ringtone a ‘tone-ring’.  Anyone who might have a personalized ringtone would have seen the word ‘ringtone’ often enough to know that it’s a ringtone, not a tone-ring.
