Best line in the movie however is when Arnie gives it ".. just drive around the neighbourhood and point your finger at the house and say the bad guys are in there!"

yeah i would think it would make a better little game to list out all the non-555 numbers used in movies... like Magnolia, Bruce Almighty, etc.

I just want to say that Last Action Hero is one of the best genre parodies ever made, if not THE best. Getting Arnold to star in that movie was a major coup for comedy. It lent the whole thing kind of a straight-faced quality that just made it that much better.

Speaking of the governor of my great state, the one 555 number I'll never forget is in The Terminator, because the second half of it (9175) is the same as my dad's phone number, and I was at my dad's house the first time I saw it. It boggled my young mind, at the time.
