Could somebody find and insert the memorable quote that goes along these lines - A - It says we'll be performing with someone infamous B - What does infamous mean? A - It means that they are so famous they are in-famous

Dusty: “What does that mean? Infamous?”
Ned: “Ah, Dusty! Infamous is when you're more than famous! This guy El Guapo is not just famous, he's IN-famous!”

"Eet's a sweater! Eeet's a sweater!"

"We... Pruned... the hedges... Of many small villages!"

[edit] El Guapo and Jefe

Have they really "become a popular meme outside of the film"? I have seen no evidence of this. The whole plethora of pinatas thing is pretty well known, but I have never, ever heard any references to that slighty creepy flower scene. Does this entry really need to contain whole transcripts of those two scenes? Rick Rossovich 20:28, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I would have to agree on the transcript issue. Maybe put it in wikiquote, but it's inappropriate here. Rewt241

[edit] Incongruity

The townspeople of Santo Poco could not have seen many Tom Mix movies in 1916. That actor didn't make many movies before the 1920s. Also, Akira Kurosawa's movies were known only in Japan until the early 1960s. The article is very inaccurate to claim that the people of Santo Poco were influenced by such movies.72.73.198.19 19:29, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Lestrade

[edit] Phraseology

When addressing the "Hombres" (or bad guys), Steve Martin's character uses the phrase..."the son of a motherless goat".

What exactly does this mean or describe? (Drew Duff, May 16/007 "The Year of Bond")

He's butchering/combining two different insults: firstly saying that you're the son of a goat, secondly saying that the goat is itself a bastard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 07:47, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Three Amigos and the SPP

Should note that when the Presidents of the United States and Mexico and Prime Minister of Canada meet that they are often referred to as "The Three Amigos." At least that is what we call them in Canada. Think it started off as a slur based on the movie. 02:19, 26 April 2008 (UTC)~
