No question. With Eastwood, there’s really no such thing as a cliche. You just do what you’re told. Here are a couple other phrases that I think Eastwood could deliver in certain situations without losing credibility:

1) “Take a picture, it will last longer.”
2) “You can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube.”
3) “I know you are, but what am I?”

Clint Eastwood: Making Everyone His Bitch Since 1964!®

It’s a great trailer, but I have to say that I did a spit-take at “you kids get off my lawn”. I mean, he ACTUALLY says “you kids get off my lawn,” but somehow when Eastwood says it there’s no doubt as to whether or not he’s trying to be meta-ironic for a new generation.

No, you’d better just get the eff off his lawn.
