Ah hah. Whenever I started thinking about it, I kept getting blocked by Sean Penn's line from The Game:

"They fuck you, and fuck you, and fuck you, and just when you think they're done, that's when the real FUCKING begins."

I sthat the film about a bored yuppie who gets signed up for a game where he's constantly threatened by death?

Indeed. It is not David Fincher's finest moment, nor his second finest. But Sean Penn's delivery of the line is excellent.

Quite.

That sentence sounds odd (perhaps deliberately), since he uses "whom" while at the same time violating the pedantic pseudo-rule against ending a sentence with a preposition.
