Chris Sabian sure says his name a lot

I mean c'mon... he never says he's Chris, Sabian, Lt. Sabian. He (and everyone else for that matter) always says, "Chris Sabian." I just find that kinda weird and funny.

Here's a fun game to play next time The Negotiator comes on. Get your favorite alcoholic beverage and every time either Kevin Spacey or any other character says "Chris Sabian" (not Chris, not Sabian, only both together) take a swig. But considering the number of times it happens in this movie, be ready for a helluva hangover the next day.

 If this movie accomplished nothing else, it drove home to the audience that his name was Chris Sabian. I couldn't recall the name of Samuel L. Jackson's character right now even if you put a gun to my head, but I'll remember the name Chris Sabian for the rest of my natural life, and perhaps even after.

"I'll remember the name Chris Sabian for the rest of my natural life, and perhaps even after."

LOL!

In the afterlife, too? You might be East Indian, and believe in reincarnation. In your next life, as possibly a parrot, you might still remember the name Chris Sabian, and you might say it a lot.

Oh my god, I'm watching this movie right now and ALL I can think about is how often they say his name. Like every 30 seconds once he gets introduced.

"Who's CHRIS SABIAN?

I'm CHRIS SABIAN.

SABIAN SABIAN SABIAN."

It's a catchy name I guess.

Only if the drink has a lot of sweetness to it. Sour drinks don't produce hangovers. LOL
