Do you feel lucky, punk? Well? Do ya?
This and a couple other big quotes might almost be too recognizable for their own good, they've been referenced and parodied by so many other movies out there that some people probably know the quote but not really know what movie they actually originated from.
Pop culture osmosis is a wonderful thing
Doesn’t help that the film is from ‘71, over 50 years ago, so the pool of people here who have actually seen it is gonna be pretty small.
And the words get twisted along the way. That exact quote doesn't actually appear in the movie it's supposedly famous for.
I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being that this is a .44 magnum handgun, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya ... Punk?
For anyone who hasn't seen it, or just hasn't heard the full version.
The most interesting thing to me is not that people quote "do you feel lucky... Punk?" Because if you see it not as a direct quote, but as more of a condensed version, that references the movie, and accurately captures the signature "...punk?"
I think it's more interesting that people have seemingly turned the quote around, because a lot of people then add the "well, do ya?" At the end. So it's either "do you feel lucky... Punk? Well, do ya?" Which just doesn't sound right to me. At least when it's "do ya feel lucky? Well do ya... Punk?" It captures the essence still lol.
