”You see this? This here little DNA bead comes from a little girl in Riverside, California. Didn’t like to wash her hands. Took me three whole weeks."

The line about hand washing has been living rent free in my head for over two decades. Any time I'm tempted to skip it, I still hear Laurence Fishburne delivering that line!

That moment when you realize that everyone's bodies are full of cells that are alive and he's killed multiple people. This guy basically committed genocide multiple times.

Also, this movie had just the perfect cast of supporting actors. Bill Murray, Laurence Fishburne, William Shatner, David Hype Pierce... what more could you want?

My favorite takeaway from the movie is that they actually implemented a Chicken Wing contest/festival in Buffalo based on this movie having it. To think that we didn’t have that event in Buffalo beforehand, outrageous.
