Favorite Movie Lines

[MA-Caver]

Many of us have favorite movies, many of those movies have favorite lines. On the Word Association thread the last few post brought up lines from the hilarious Monty Python and the Holy Grail film.
Thus I felt it prudent that the current postings be "bumped" to this thread where we can share our favorite lines with each other.

Any movie, any genre, and any line... expleitives should be
"****-ed" out or at minimum be done so we dont offend others who do not choose to use such language.

I would suggest quoting the line then the source character and film

"Honey I want you to meet Del Griffith he's got some amusing ancedotes for you...oh and here's a gun so you can blow your brains out afterwards... you'll thank me for it!" Neil Page (Steve Martin) Planes, Trains & Automobiles :rofl:

This could be fun.

 

[Rich Parsons]

Scene set up. Sharon Stome Rolling around on the ground trying to kill a woman on Mars. She is completely intent on her task.

Face turns to complete loving care
"Doug, Honey, you wouldn't hurt me? Would you, Dear?"


For some reason I just love this scene and this line. It kind of hits home


Movie for those who have not guessed. Total Recall

 

[Randy Strausbaugh]

Peter O'Toole in "My Favorite Year":

"I'm not an actor, I'm a movie star!"

 

[pknox]

There are sooo many...

Airplane:
-------------
"Can you fly this plane and land it?"
"Surely you can't be serious."
"I am serious, and don't call me Shirley."

"Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked, in the head, by an iron boot? Of course you don't--no one does--that never happens."

Ferris Bueller's Day Off:
------------------------------
"I do have a test today, that wasn't bullsh**. It's on European Socialism. I mean, really, what's the point? I'm not European. I don't plan on being European. So, who gives a crap if they're Socialists? They could be fascist anarchists, it still wouldn't change the fact that I don't own a car."

Good Morning Vietnam:
------------------------------
"Do you see anything on this uniform indicating an officer?! What does three up and three down mean to you?!"
"End of an inning?"

And finally, not a funny one, but instead one that always gets me going, from Braveheart:

"I am William Wallace. And, I see a whole army of my country men, here in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as freemen, and freemen you are. What will you do without freedom?! Will you fight?"
"No . . . we will run . . . and we will live."
"Aye. Fight and you may die. Run and you'll live, at least a while. And, dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance -- just one chance -- to come back here and tell our enemies, that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"

 

[satans.barber]

Here's some of my favourites, I really can't think of them all off hand! Cuss words starred as requested:

GoodFells

"OK, OK........................now go get yer f**ckin' shine box!"

Predator

"You're bleeding..."
"...I ain't got time to bleed!"

The Prodigal Son

"I can't teach you, yer kung fu is non existant!"

Pulp Fiction

"I just accidentally shot Marvin in the throat."
"Why the f**k did you do that?"
"I didn't mean to do it. I said it was an accident."
"I've seen a lot of crazy-*** **** in my time..."
"Chill out, man, it was an accident, okay? You hit a bump or somethin' and the gun went off."
"The car didn't hit no motherf**kin' bump!"

Fawlty Towers

"Is this a piece of your brain?"

Monty Python's The Meaning of Life

MR. HARRY BLACKITT: Look at them, bloody Catholics, filling the bloody world up with bloody people they can't afford to bloody feed.

MRS. BLACKITT: What are we dear?

MR. BLACKITT: Protestant, and fiercely proud of it.

MRS. BLACKITT: Hmm. Well, why do they have so many children?

MR. BLACKITT: Because... every time they have sexual intercourse, they have to have a baby.

MRS. BLACKITT: But it's the same with us, Harry.

MR. BLACKITT: What do you mean?

MRS. BLACKITT: Well, I mean, we've got two children, and we've had sexual intercourse twice.

MR. BLACKITT: That's not the point. We could have it any time we wanted.

MRS. BLACKITT: Really?

MR. BLACKITT: Oh, yes, and, what's more, because we don't believe in all that Papist claptrap, we can take precautions.

MRS. BLACKITT: What, you mean... lock the door?

MR. BLACKITT: No, no. I mean, because we are members of the Protestant Reformed Church, which successfully challenged the autocratic power of the Papacy in the mid- sixteenth century, we can wear little rubber devices to prevent issue.

MRS. BLACKITT: What d'you mean?

MR. BLACKITT: I could, if I wanted, have sexual intercourse with you,...

MRS. BLACKITT: Oh, yes, Harry.

MR. BLACKITT: ...and, by wearing a rubber sheath over my old feller, I could insure... that, when I came off, you would not be impregnated.

MRS. BLACKITT: Ooh!

MR. BLACKITT: That's what being a Protestant's all about. That's why it's the church for me. That's why it's the church for anyone who respects the individual and the individual's right to decide for him or herself. When Martin Luther nailed his protest up to the church door in fifteen- seventeen, he may not have realised the full significance of what he was doing, but four hundred years later, thanks to him, my dear, I can wear whatever I want on my John Thomas,... [sniff] ...and, Protestantism doesn't stop at the simple condom! Oh, no! I can wear French Ticklers if I want.

MRS. BLACKITT: You what?

MR. BLACKITT: French Ticklers. Black Mambos. Crocodile Ribs. Sheaths that are designed not only to protect, but also to enhance the stimulation of sexual congress.

MRS. BLACKITT: Have you got one?

MR. BLACKITT: Have I got one? Uh, well, no, but I can go down the road any time I want and walk into Harry's and hold my head up high and say in a loud, steady voice, 'Harry, I want you to sell me a condom. In fact, today, I think I'll have a French Tickler, for I am a Protestant.'

MRS. BLACKITT: Well, why don't you?

MR. BLACKITT: But they-- Well, they cannot, 'cause their church never made the great leap out of the Middle Ages and the domination of alien episcopal supremacy.

NARRATOR #1: But, despite the attempts of Protestants to promote the idea of sex for pleasure, children continued to multiply everywhere.

 

[arnisador]

Some great sources for these include, in my opinion, the very quotable "The Princess Bride" and "The Outlaw Josey Wales".

Points off to anyone who can't place this:

"You have offended my family, and you have offended a Shaolin temple..."

From Monty Python:

"I came here for a good argument."
"No, you came here for an argument."

 

[TheRustyOne]

"He shall be mine, and I shall name him Squishy, and he shall be my Squishy." --Dorrie, "Finding Nemo"

i LOVE that movie! *giggles*

 

[Touch Of Death]

The Movie "After Hours".
The Line, "Lack of Discipline".

 

[pknox]

A few more...

Stripes
John Winger: Come on, it's Czechoslovakia. We zip in, we pick 'em up, we zip right out again. We're not going to Moscow. It's Czechoslovakia, it's like going into Wisconsin.
Russell Ziskey: Well, I got the sh** kicked out of me in Wisconsin once. Forget it.


Scrooged
Lady Censor: I will not allow this costume on the air.
Frank Cross: Why not?
Lady Censor: Well, specifically: you can see her nipples.
Frank Cross: I want to see her nipples!
Lady Censor: But, this is a Christmas show!
Frank Cross: Well, Charles Dickens would've wanted to see her nipples, then.


Jerry Maguire
Jerry Maguire: I will not rest until I have you holding a Coke, wearing your own shoe, playing a Sega game--featuring you--while singing your own song in a new commercial--starring you--broadcast during the Superbowl in a game that you are winning, and I will not sleep until that happens. I'll give you fifteen minutes to call me back.


Full Metal Jacket
Sgt. Hartman: God has a hard on for marines, because we kill everything we see. (That one's for you, letch )


Pulp Fiction
Vincent Vega: You know what the funniest thing about Europe is?
Jules Winnfield: What?
Vincent Vega: It's the little differences. I mean they got the same sh** over there that they got here, but it's just, just there it's a little different.
Jules Winnfield: Example.
Vincent Vega: Alright, well you can walk into a movie theater and buy a beer. And, I don't mean just like a paper cup, I'm talking about a glass of beer. And, in Paris, you can buy a beer in McDonald's. You know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?
Jules Winnfield: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with Cheese?
Vincent Vega: No, man, they got the metric system, they don't know what the fu** a Quarter Pounder is.
Jules Winnfield: What do they call it?
Vincent Vega: They call it a Royal with Cheese.
Jules Winnfield: Royal with Cheese.
Vincent Vega: That's right.
Jules Winnfield: What do they call a Big Mac?
Vincent Vega: Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac.
Jules Winnfield: Le Big Mac. What do they call a Whopper?
Vincent Vega: I don't know. I didn't go into Burger King.

 

[Posiview]

Blade Runner:

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die.

I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments, he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life, anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die

Classic..

 

[Andi]

LOTR: Two Towers

Treebeard: Hroom. That doesn't make sense to me. But then you are very small.

Shawshank

Red: Rehabilitated? Now let me see. You know, I don't have any idea what that means.
Parole official: Well, it means that you're ready to rejoin society.
Red: I know what you think it means, sonny. To me it's just a made up word; a politician's word. So young fellas like yourself can wear a suit, and tie, and have a job. What do you really want to know? Am I sorry for what I did?
Parole official: Well, are you?
Red: There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then then, a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can't. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bulls*** word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a s***.

The obligatory Monty Python quote

Reg: Trouble at th' mill.
Lady M: Oh no! What sort of trouble?
Reg: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treddle.
Lady M: Pardon?
Reg: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treddle.
Lady M: I don't understand what you're saying.
Reg: One of the cross beams has gone out of skew on the treadle.
Lady M: Well, what on earth does that mean?
Reg: I don't know! - Mr. Wentworth just told me to come in here and say that there was trouble at the mill, that's all - I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition!
[The door flies open and in come three Cardinals in red robes.]
Cardinal Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise! ...Surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency! Our three weapons are fear, and surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our four...no... Amongst our weapons.... Hmf... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surpr.... I'll come in again.
[They leave]
Reg: I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition.
[They burst in again.]
Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! ...Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms - Oh damn!


Transformers the Movie!
Optimus Prime: Ready the shuttle for launch!

Wreck-Gar (Eric Idle): Yes friends, act now, destroy Unicron. Kill the Grand Poobah. Eliminate even the toughest stain!


Schindler's List

Oskar Schindler: Power is when we have every justification to kill, and we don't.
Amon Goeth: You think that's power?
Oskar Schindler: That's what the Emperor said. A man steals something, he's brought in before the Emperor, he throws himself down on the ground. He begs for his life, he knows he's going to die. And the Emperor... pardons him. This worthless man, he lets him go.
Amon Goeth: I think you are drunk.
Oskar Schindler: That's power, Amon. That is power.


Mallrats

Brodie: Cookie stand's not part of the food court.
T.S. Quint: Sure it is.
Brodie: The food court is downstairs the cookie stand is upstairs it's not like we're talking quantum physics here!
T.S. Quint: The cookie stand is an eatery, an eatery is part of the food court.
Brodie: Bulls***! Eateries that operate within the designated square downstairs qualify as food court, anything operating outside the said designated square is considered an autonomous unit for mid-mall snacking.



I'll try and resist the urge to post more for now...

Full Metal Jacket
Sgt. Hartman: God has a hard on for marines, because we kill everything we see. (That one's for you, letch )
[/B]

Heh, almost the entire first 20 minutes of Full Metal Jacket is quotable! Absolutely cracks me up every time that guy! Of course the second 'part' of the film highlights the very real horrors of Vietnam, so I think it's OK to laugh at the first bit.

Classic crude Hartman lines:

"You people climb obstacles like old people f**k!"


"Hell, I like you. You can come over to my house and f**k my sister!"


"Let me see your real war face!"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!"
"You didn't scare me! Work on it!"


"How tall are you, Private?"
"Sir, five foot nine, sir!"
"Five foot nine? I didn't know they stacked s**t that high! You trying to squeeze an inch in on me somewhere, huh?"


"Where in hell are you from anyway, Private?"
"Sir, Texas, sir!"
"Holy dogshit! Texas! Only steers and queers come from Texas, Private Cowboy! And you don't look much like a steer to me, so that kinda narrows it down! Do you suck dicks!"
"Sir, no, sir!"
"Are you a peter-puffer?"
"Sir, no, sir!"
"I'll bet you're the kind of guy that would f**k a person in the *** and not even have the goddam common courtesy to give him a reach-around! I'll be watching you!"

R. Lee Ermey is the man that plays the part of Sgt. Hartman. He does a great job as a DI 'cause he's had one in his face. A tour and a half in 'Nam and then a medical retirement, acting school on the GI Bill and then on to the movies. The weekend that I came home from boot camp (sept '88) Full Metal Jacket had just hit video..... do you know how many times I had to answer the question "Is boot camp really like that?" http://www.rleeermey.org/index.php If ya like the Gunny check him out here.

Thanks, Knox, for the quote.

pknox,

you wouldn't happen to know what the Latin was following that quote would you?

 

[pknox]

The latin, no - I don't remember that. If you can find it, I might have a shot at figuring out though (6 months of it in college, but I'm not promising anything - it was at 8 am on Fridays, so I got a lot of sleep in that class )

Oh, and letch - anytime. My cousin was a Marine (now with the Army (a medical detachment attached to the 101st - "stationed somewhere with a whole lot of sand" as he says in his letters)) and one thing I've learned is that it's best to keep you guys happy.

It was Scots, not Latin.

Boondock Saints

Paul Smecker: Brilliant! So now we got a Huge Guy theory and a Serial Crusher theory.

Paul Smecker: We'll start the ***-kissing with you.

Yakavetta: The 90's are killing me. I shouldn't have done that. You're not supposed to tell a guy you're gonna kill him no more. Taking all the fun out of the job.

Rocco: I killed your cat, you druggie *****.
Donna: What? Why?
Rocco: I thought it would bring closure to our relationship.

Conner MacManus: We haven't really figured out a system to decide who. (to kill)
Rocco: Me! I'm the guy! I know everyone! I know their habits, who they hang out with! I got phone numbers, addresses! I know who they're ****ing, I know where they live! We could kill EVERYONE.
Murphy MacManus: So what do you think?
Conner MacManus: I'm strangely comfortable with it.

Conner MacManus: the rule of thumb here is...
Rosengurtie: Rule of thumb? Do you know where that expression comes from? In the early 1900's it was legal to beat your wife so long as you used a stick no wider than your thumb.
Conner MacManus: Well, you can't do much damage with that...maybe it should have been a rule of wrist then.

Black Adder II

Edmund Blackadder: It is said that the civilized man seeks out good and intelligent company, so that by learned discourse, he may rise above the savage, and be closer to God. Personally, however, I like to start the day with a total dickhead to remind me that I'm best.

Edmund Blackadder: Baldrick, get the door.
[Crash within. Baldrick enters with -- what else? -- the door.]
Edmund Blackadder: Now, Baldrick, I advise you to make whatever explanation you are about to give exceptionally good.
Baldrick: You said get the door...
Edmund Blackadder: Not good enough, you're fired.
Baldrick: But I've been in your family since 1557 --
Edmund Blackadder: So has syphilis. Now get out!

Lord Melchett: Let's play a word game!
Edmund Blackadder: OK, make a sentence out of the following words: face, sodding, your, shut.

Army of Darkness

Sheila: But what of all those sweet words you spoke in private?
Ash: Oh that's just what we call pillow talk, baby, that's all.

Arthur: Are all men from the future loud-mouthed braggarts?
Ash: Nope. Just me baby... Just me.

Office Space

Bob Porter: Looks like you've been missing a lot of work lately.
Peter Gibbons: Well, I wouldn't exactly say I've been *missing* it, Bob!

FIGHT CLUB

The morning after a particularly brutal fight...
"If you could fight anyone living or dead who would you fight?"

"I'd fight Gandhi."

ANIMAL HOUSE

"Was it over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor?"

"Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life son."

"7 Years of college down the drain."

BLUTO :"My advice to you is to start drinking heavily."
Eric Stratton (Rush chairman):"I'd listen to him Flounder, he's in Pre-Med."

From Ferris Buellers' Day Off: "Cameron is so wound up that if you were to stick a lump of coal up his a** in three weeks you'd have a diamond!"

From Highlander: McLeod: I hate you! Ramerez: Good that's the perfect way to start.

From: A Fish Called Wanda; "Otto: Don't ever, ever call me stupid" Wanda: "Oh right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people! I've known sheep that can outwit you, ape!"
Otto: "Apes don't read philosophy"
Wanda: "Yes they do Otto, they just don't understand it!"

Also from the same film; Otto: "....what was that middle one?"

From: The Rock; (Connery) "You ready for this?" (Cage) "I'll do my best" (Connery) "Your best? Losers always whine about their best... winners go home and f*** the prom queen."
