Line 2: {{quote\|''"All cult really means is that something is popular that others didn't expect to be popular. Some people get it. Others are assholes."''\|'''[[John Waters]]'''}} {{quote\|''"The purpose of a cult is exclusion. If you're not in the cult, you are by definition lacking some essential quality shared by its members. Those inside the cult can feel privileged, even gifted, by their ability to Get It."''\|'''[[Roger Ebert]]''' in his [http://www.rogerebert.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID{{=}}/20120229/REVIEWS/120229974/1023 review] of ''[[Tim and Eric\|Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie]]''}} {{quote\|''"But the key thing with [[~~Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (Film)\|~~Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]] is that it is, like [[Howard the Duck (~~Film~~film)\|Howard the Duck]], one of those genuine examples of a [[Cult Classic\|cult movie]] by accident. People who make cult movies on purpose don't make cult movies, they make bad movies. [[~~Piranha 3D (Film)\|~~Piranha 3D]], all the [[Troma]] movies -- those are movies that want to be cult movies, but they aren't. Genuine cult movies are movies which try to be popular mainstream hits but somehow are so squiff, so off-balance, so offbeat, so strange, so quirky, so against the mainstream that they don't find that audience -- and yet [[Vindicated Byby History\|later on, people embrace them.]]"''\|'''[[Mark Kermode]]''' in his [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}eDwAOs_5Yrk review] of ''[[~~Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (Film)\|~~Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]''}} {{quote\|''"And as you know, back in 1970... I starred on a series called, '''Wha' Happened?'''. And every time something would go wrong, I'd look at the camera and say: 'Hey, wha' happened?'. We had a lot of fun with that and a lot of other catch phrases: 'I got a real red wagon!', and uh, 'I can't do my work!', And I believe I was the first one to use the phrase, 'I don't think so!'. But it only lasted a year. And that's good because that's how you establish a cult."''\|'''Mike LaFontaine''', ''[[A Mighty Wind]]''}} {{Quote\|This insufferable film has been edited on DVD in America, and it's considered a cult film, but c'mon, at this point that's not surprising. '''Everything born in the 80 is a cult classic. Now you know, if you farted in the 80, now that fart is a cult classic.'''<ref>Original:"La insufrible película ha sido editada en DVD en Estados Unidos y está considerada de culto; pero vamos, a estas alturas nadie debería sorprenderse. Todo lo nacido en los 80 es de culto. Ya sabéis, si te tiraste un pedo en los 80, ahora ese pedo es de culto."</ref> ~~{{reflist}}~~ \|'''Carlos Palencia "Oso"''', in [http://cinecutre.com/movie-review/black-devil-doll-from-hell-1984 his review] for ''Black Devil Doll From Hell''}} ~~[[Category:Cult Classic]]~~ ~~[[Category:Quotes]]~~ {{tropesubpagefooter}}
