Quote
[edit]Could somebody find and insert the memorable quote that goes along these lines - A - It says we'll be performing with someone infamous B - What does infamous mean? A - It means that they are so famous they are in-famous
Dusty: “What does that mean? Infamous?”
Ned: “Ah, Dusty! Infamous is when you're more than famous! This guy El Guapo is not just famous, he's IN-famous!”
"Eet's a sweater! Eeet's a sweater!"
"We... Pruned... the hedges... Of many small villages!"
El Guapo and Jefe
[edit]Have they really "become a popular meme outside of the film"? I have seen no evidence of this. The whole plethora of pinatas thing is pretty well known, but I have never, ever heard any references to that slighty creepy flower scene. Does this entry really need to contain whole transcripts of those two scenes? Rick Rossovich 20:28, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
I would have to agree on the transcript issue. Maybe put it in wikiquote, but it's inappropriate here. Rewt241
Incongruity
[edit]The townspeople of Santo Poco could not have seen many Tom Mix movies in 1916. That actor didn't make many movies before the 1920s. Also, Akira Kurosawa's movies were known only in Japan until the early 1960s. The article is very inaccurate to claim that the people of Santo Poco were influenced by such movies.72.73.198.19 19:29, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Lestrade
Phraseology
[edit]When addressing the "Hombres" (or bad guys), Steve Martin's character uses the phrase..."the son of a motherless goat".
What exactly does this mean or describe? (Drew Duff, May 16/007 "The Year of Bond")
- He's butchering/combining two different insults: firstly saying that you're the son of a goat, secondly saying that the goat is itself a bastard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 07:47, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Three Amigos and the SPP
[edit]Should note that when the Presidents of the United States and Mexico and Prime Minister of Canada meet that they are often referred to as "The Three Amigos." At least that is what we call them in Canada. Think it started off as a slur based on the movie. 02:19, 26 April 2008 (UTC)~
Derivative references WWE
[edit]In 2006, during a show ind Tijuana, WWE wrestlers Triple H, rey Mysterio and Shawn Michaels appeared wearing sombreros and doing the hup-thrust from the movie, specifically stating the movie as an inspiration here :http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/archive/threeamigos. Should it be added to the Derivative references section? IchiGhost (talk) 14:35, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Requested move
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the proposal was: Moved. Station1 (talk) 01:57, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
¡Three Amigos! → Three Amigos — The upside-down exclamation mark is not part of the film's common name. Reliable sources show that it can be either "Three Amigos" or "Three Amigos!", and I recommend "Three Amigos" as a simpler form. (We can still write "marketed as ¡Three Amigos!" in the lead sentence.) —Erik (talk) 04:30, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

The Plane?
[edit]What was the plane? I know a Tuppman 301 or whatever does not exist, but it looks like a De Havilland or Fokker to me. Perhaps a kit plane with a Lycoming O-300 engine? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.115.201.163 (talk) 01:55, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- I think it's a mail plane. 117.20.69.38 (talk) 21:11, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
Article title
[edit]I have input the film's official title into the infobox and the introductory paragraphs. Per the movie's official billing block, the movie is titled ¡Three Amigos!. Shouldn't the article be moved to include this? A redirect to any searches for the movie without the Hispanic exclamation mark, would help for reader searches. --DisneyMetalhead (talk) 17:51, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
