Need help finding where something is from
« on: June 09, 2013, 12:48:02 am »

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away, there was something. I can't remember what, but it was there. It had this man with this sexy voice, and he said, "Mmmmmagnificent <some sentence I don't remember>"

This has been bothering Hugo_the_Dwarf and I for quite some time now, as we reference it all the time, but we can't find out where it's from. Anyone have any ideas?

"Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your BOOK!" from Patton?

Referenced quite a lot on Mystery Science Theater 3000, often as short as "magnificent bastard"....

OOO: This wasn't it, but I remember this too! xD

It was more of a deep voice, starts off with a drawn out "Mmmmmagnnnificent"

I'm pretty sure it's also from somewhere else.. a movie?

Magnusson says it at some point in HL2 Episode 2, near the end. I forget the specific line, but I thought of this thread and GMod Idiot Box when he said it.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.
