Greatest Lines From Movies
« on: May 29, 2012, 10:58:49 AM »
My spamming the "rate the last movie you just saw" thread with Indy quotes made me want to start this thread. Anyway, please only post A+ lines that you like to quote out of context. I will start.

"Maybe you should try READING books instead of BURNING them!" - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
"If you are here for the tapestries then I am Mickey Mouse!"
"NO TICKET"

Sheila: You found me beautiful once...
Ash: Honey, you got reeeal ugly!

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.
Veronica Corningstone: No, there's no way that's correct.
Ron Burgundy: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.
Veronica Corningstone: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego?
Ron Burgundy: No. No.
Veronica Corningstone: No, that's - that's what it means. Really.
Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree.

I love that scene -- especially when Lex looks at his watch and just shakes his head "no."

I'd prefer if you guys would name the movie when you give a quote. 

I tend to quote movies where I think appropriate. I've confused a huge number of Presbyterians when meeting them by adopting a Fozzy Bear voice and saying "You don't look like Presbyterians to me".

Another I actually pulled off was in a tennis match where I was losing (cause I am really not good at tennis) and I started laughing.
Opponent asked why I was laughing and I said "because I know something you don't." He asked "what?" I said "I am not left-handed!" and flipped the racket over to my right hand and served an ace!
(I am right-handed but I play tennis lefty for reasons to long and boring to explain)

Just about any quote from Aliens counts :)

Quote
Hudson: Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
Vasquez: No. Have you?


Quote
Hudson: We're on an express elevator to hell; going down!


Quote
Vasquez: Look, man. I only need to know one thing: where they are.
Drake: Go, Vasquez. Kick ass.
Vasquez: Anytime, anywhere, man!
Hudson: Right, right. Somebody said "alien" she thought they said "illegal alien" and signed up!
 Vasquez: Fuck you, man!
Hudson: Anytime, anywhere.


Quote
Hudson: I'm ready, man, check it out. I am the ultimate badass! State of the badass art! You do NOT wanna fuck with me. Check it out! Hey Ripley, don't worry. Me and my squad of ultimate badasses will protect you! Check it out! Independently targeting particle beam phalanx. Vwap! Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart missiles, phase-plasma pulse rifles, RPGs, we got sonic electronic ball breakers! We got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks...

Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Uh, Jack, Jack, listen... tell me, tell me, Jack. When did you first... become... well, develop this theory?
General Jack D. Ripper: Well, I, uh... I... I... first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love.
Yes, a uh, a profound sense of fatigue... a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I... I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence.
I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women uh... women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I, uh... I do not avoid women, Mandrake.
But I... I do deny them my essence.
