ROB
-- Barry, if I were to say to you I
haven't seen Evil Dead II yet, what
would that mean?
ROB
Just... come on, what would it mean
to you? That sentence? "I haven't
seen Evil Dead II yet?"
BARRY
To me, it would mean that you're a
liar. You saw it twice. Once with
Laura -- oops -- once with me and
Dick. We had that conversation about
the possibilities of the guy making
ammo off-screen in the Fourteenth
Century.
ROB
Yeah, yeah, I know. But say I hadn't
seen it and I said to you, "I haven't
seen Evil Dead II yet," what would
you think?
BARRY
I'd think you were a cinematic idiot.
And I'd feel sorry for you.
ROB
No, but would you think, from that
one sentence. That I was going to
see it?
BARRY
I'm sorry, Rob, but I'm struggling
here. I don't understand any part
of this conversation. You're asking
me what I would think if you told me
that you hadn't seen a film that
you've seen. What am I supposed to
say?
ROB
Just listen to me. If I said to you --
BARRY
"-- I haven't seen Evil Dead II yet,"
yeah, yeah, I hear you --
ROB
Would you... would you get the
impression that I wanted to see it?
BARRY
Well... you couldn't have been
desperate to see it, otherwise you'd
have already gone...
BARRY
...But the word "yet..." Yeah, you
know what, I'd get the impression
that you wanted to see it. Otherwise
you'd say you didn't really want to.
ROB
But in your opinion, would I
definitely go?
BARRY
How the fuck am I supposed to know
that? You might get sick of people
telling you you've really gotta go
see the movie.
ROB
Why would they care?
BARRY
Because it's a brilliant film. It's
funny, violent, and the soundtrack
kicks fucking ass.
