  Wildcatting would have been soooo much damn easier.
  
  Shit, I heard it was easier in the 90's even. Everyone thinks they have oil and gas now and wants way too much for a damn lease.

  Bastard from a basket.

  Stop crying, you sniveling ass! Stop your nonsense. You're just the afterbirth, Eli.

  I would love a .GIF of Plainview shaking his head after his first Eli in Church experience... LOL!!!

  Is he a virgin? haha I was just thinking of that and realized he worked so much that it is quiet possible he never fucked a chick

  I'm watching this movie now because of these quotes. It's alright so far, but I'm not completely into it either.

  I do. I'm on the Barnett Shale. Unfortunately, I'm in a subdivision, so while my lease per acre is quite high, my royalty will be quite low.

  You sure the developer doesn't own the mineral rights?

  Honestly, once you watch it more than once you realize how good it is. The first time doesn't really give it justice

  ^^^I was saying the same thing to a buddy the other day. I honestly didn't think it was anything special the first time I watched it, but it really caught my eye the second time.

  I always wonder what his butler was thinking at the end of that whole thing........................

  Positive. Already got paid my signing bonus. Now just waiting on the drilling. All rights were verified before I got the bonus.

  I drink your water, Eli. I drink it up. Everyday. I drink the blood of lamb from Bandy's tract.
• justincredible

  

  I've only seen it once so far and I thought it was outstanding. I'll get around to watching it again one of these days.
  
  But yes, Daniel Plainview is a BAMF.
• LJ

  

  Drainage! Drainage, Eli, you boy. Drained dry. I'm so sorry. Here, if you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake, and I have a straw. There it is, that's a straw, you see? You watching?. And my straw reaches acroooooooss the room, and starts to drink your milkshake... I... drink... your... milkshake!

  I agree with those who said they liked it more the more they watch it. Daniel Day Lewis is probably one of the greatest actors ever. Great movie!
