What is your favorite line from a movie?

Damn the man.

You know, I think I understand what you're like now. You're very beautiful and you think men are only interested in you because you're beautiful, but you want them to be interested in you because you're you. The problem is, aside from all that beauty, you're not very interesting. You're rude, you're hostile, you're sullen, you're withdrawn. I know you want someone to look past all that at the real person underneath but the only reason anyone would bother to look past all that is because you're beautiful. Ironic, isn't it? In an odd way you're your own problem.

Nicholson to Pfeiffer in Wolf.

There's so many movie lines that I really like. Here's a few.

"Beautiful morning, Sgt. Major."
"What are you? The fudging weatherman now?"
from We Were Soldiers

"A lock of hair...from her chest."
from Grease

"Anybody that tells you money is the root of all evil...doesn't have any."
from Boiler Room

"Do you know what Top Secret is?"
"Yes, sir. It's the kind of mission where you get medals...and they send them to your relatives."
from Pearl Harbor

Here's a monologue from Erin Brockovich that I like.

Erin: Hey! Hey! Hey!
George: Hello.
Erin: What are you doing making all that damn noise?
George: Well, I don't know. We were just introducing ourselves to the neighborhood, I guess.
Erin: Well, I'm the neighbors. There, we're introduced, so shut the fudge up.
George: Hey. Hey. Hold on there. Let's start over, okay? My name's George. What's yours?
Erin: Just think of me as the person next door who likes it quiet.
George: Come on. Don't be like that. Hell, we live next door to each other. I feel bad. I feel terrible. I'm sorry. Will you accept my apology? I mean, hell, we're living right next door to each other. If you ever need a cup of sugar...
Erin: I don't need sugar.
George: You don't need any sugar. Well, why don't I take you out to dinner to apologize for my rudeness? Huh? You give me your number. I mean, I already got your address so you can't get away. Huh? I'll call you up proper and I'll ask you out and everything.
Erin: You want my number?
George: I do. I do want your number.
Erin: Which number do you want, George?
George: George. I like the way you say that. Uh, well, how many numbers you got?
Erin: Oh, I've got numbers coming out my my ears. For instance, ten.
George: Ten?
Erin: Yeah. That's how many months old my baby girl is.
George: You've got a little girl?
Erin: Yeah. Sexy, huh? How about this for a number: six. That's how old my other daughter is. Eight is the age of my son. Two is how many times I've been married and divorced. Sixteen is the number of dollars I have in my bank account. 850-3943. That's my phone number. And, with all the numbers I have you, I'm guessing zero is the number of times you're going to call me.
George: Hey, how the hell do you remember your bank balance off the top of your head like that? That impresses me. And you're dead wrong about that zero thing, baby.

there are so many!!

"go that way, real fast! if something gets in your way, TURN!"----from Better Off Dead

From The Devil's Advocate:

"What about love?"
"Overrated. Biochemically no different from eating large quantities of chocolate."

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 Tannhauser gate
All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain
Time to die...

"It's not the years, honey, it's the mileage" - or something like that, spoken by Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

"It's got raisins....you like raisins" - Better Off Dead

I can't think of one, although I know there are some movie lines I really like.

"Go ahead. Make my day!" - Clint Eastwood from "Dirty Harry".

"Oh Lex, thank goodness you're here. The busty virgin nympho cheerleaders need satisfying."

"Because I'm not one of your fans!" Christina to Joan Crawford (Mommy Dearest)

I have a few. There was a line in the commercial for the first tomb raider movie that I loved, but it wasn't in the movie. Angelina Jolie and some guy were talking about working together. She said "You might try to kill me," and then he said "I won't kill you," and then she said "I said you'd try". I liked that.
I also like several lines from Legally Blonde. I love her entire graduation speech.

Lucius Malfoy: Mr Potter will always be around to save the day.
Harry Potter: Don't worry, I will be.

And then there is so many Monty Python and the Holy Grail quotes I like that I might as well link to the whole script: http://brooming.20m.com/monty.htm

holy cow is that funny!! i just thought of that line this morning, was giving raisins to my 2 yr old, and he decided that he didn't want them...

Chris Chambers to Gordie LaChance in "Stand By Me": Kids lose everything if there isn't someone around to help them take care of it."

HEY! No Elvis quote?

I'm trying to think of one - I know I have them, but can't remember. I like in Natural Born Killers when Malory sings "born bad" - that's in my head a lot.

That's hard to narrow down to just one. Dennis Hopper has some great lines in "Blue Velvet":

"It's Daddy you crap-head. Where's
my bourbon?"

"Pretty pretty pretty pretty..."

There's some great lines in "Buffalo 66" too:

"You're pointing your knife at me! You're pointing your knife at me!"

There's just so many good ones--well, let's see--let me think...here's one:

From "Viva Las Vegas":

Ann-Margret: Could you check my car? It whistles.
Elvis: I don't blame it.

"Drive!" - Thelma and Louise

"Pride of the Yankees"-"Today, I feel like the luckiest man on the face of the Earth".
"Paper Moon"-I don't know what scruples are, but I can sure bet if you got them, they belong to somebody else.
"Gone With The Wind"-Frankly my dear, I don 't give a damn.

I haven't seen that movie in forever. I used to catch it every once in a while on AMC, but haven't in a while.

I can't believe I didn't think about that Gone With The Wind line. That was my favorite movie for the longest time! I used to tell my ex that all the time and it would drive him crazy!

"What's the big deal? It doesn't hurt anybody. Fudge fudgeity fudge fudge fudge." - Eric Cartman, South Park Bigger, Longer, & Uncut.

I have so many favorite lines that I don't think I have enough room here to list them all, but here is some of them:
"This is my BOOM STICK!"
"Shop smart, shop S-Mart"
"You got ugly real fast"
"Klaatu, barata, *cough* *cough* necktie"
"Groovy"
"Give me some sugar baby!"
"Hail to the king!"
"Name's Ash, Housewares"
"Your shoelaces are untied"
Can anyone guess which movie all these lines came from? I know BrianW could in a heartbeat.

"SUPPLIES!" - From Weird Al's movie UHF

"Let's do some crimes!" "Yeah, let's eat sushi and not pay" - Repoman

"There's no place like home" from The Wizard of Oz

"Is that a loofa or are you pleased to see me?" - American Pie 2

"Eureka jerk!" - Hudson Hawke

"Get away from her you dog!" - Aliens

"They'll think some African Americans did it" - A politically correct racist from Boiling Point

One of the Evil Dead's?

Army of Darkness to be precise.

The 3rd one-"Army of Darkness".

This is your life and it's ending one
minute at a time.

"I am going to give you butt-holes a chance'
"(ha ha)"
"on the count of three, nobody shoots untill the can hits the ground"
"thau thau, thau nawwwao"
"--------"
"draw."
"naww, tnaaw, maw naw naaouuaaahh"

"so, when do we begin"
"oh, were done"
"ah, the fastest gun in the west routine"

"so, did you miss that shot, or did you MISS it"
"not exactly a soup question is it"

"ok, so I guess we're done now"
"not so fast"
"??"
"and now....
"... in french please"

"what about him"
"oh, he lost his head"

"and now, I am going to disapear"

The "groovy" gave it away.

"Zu viele Noten! (=Too many notes!)" (from Shaffers's "Amadeus")

Actually it was the "Klaatu Barada Necktie" reference. AoD was shown on Sci-Fi channel last week and that's hwere I came in while channel flipping.

I actually thought that was from Ford Fairlane where the sorority chicks were doing their initiation.

DON'T F--K WITH ME FELLAS!!!!! (Joanie )

Margaret White: Take that dress off. I can see your dirty pillows. Carrie: They're called breasts, mama, and every woman has them.
*CARRIE*

"Give my regards to King Tut butt-hole!" - Stargate

"You're terminated fudgeer!" - Terminator

That makes me wanna eat a hot dog real bad! Legally Blond 2

That cracks me up every time I see the commercial! That woman is hilarious. Have you seen "Best in Show"?

Yes, that was a weird/funny movie too. I think she's the same woman that played the mother in Sweet Home Alabama. Am I right? I told my daughter and husband that but they said I'm wrong.

One of 2:

1. 'Caw, caw, bang, fuc$, I'm dead!'
or
2. Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die. HELLO, MY NAME IS INIGO MONTOYA, YOU KILLED MY FATHER, PREPARE TO DIE. HELLO...

I think maybe your daughter and husband are right...Jennifer Coolidge is the woman in Legally Blonde, and Mary Kay Place is the woman in Sweet Home Alabama. Anyway, I thought Best in Show was one of the funniest I've seen in a while.

"THE SIGN, ON THE BACK OF THE CAR, SAID CRITTERS, OF HOLLYWOOD! YOU DUMB FUDGE!"

Silent Bob, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back

Wrong again. Oh well.

No biggie! They were both great.

"... take me to bed or lose me forever!"
~Top Gun, Meg Ryan

"Look at all the buttons just begging to be pressed, It really makes me wonder, Why doesn't anyone ever press mine? Why doesn't anybody reach inside and pull out the truth and tell me that I'm a fudging whore and that my parents wish I were dead" Lisa from Girl, Interrupted

UHF - "What better way to say I love you than with a spatula"

"I'm pleasant...dammit, I'm pleasant! I saw Drum Eatonton at the Piggly Wiggly the other day and I smiled at the sonofadog before I could help myself!"- Shirley Maclaine (aka "Ouisa") in Steel Magnolias

"Next Christmas I'm going to get you a big wooden cross. That way, whenever you're feeling underappreciated for all the sacrifices you've made, you can climb up on it and nail yourself to it."- Kevin Spacey to his mother in "The Ref"

Bill Murry's Dali Lama speech from CaddyShack

Very good movie

"Have fun in Florida"

Hey boy, where's Sheriff Branford?

I think #2 is from The Princess Bride.

Off the top of my head I have two. Name the sources...one should be quite easy.

1- Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

here's the long one
2- Now you will receive us. We do not ask for your poor or your hungry. We do not want your tired and sick. It is your corrupt we claim. It is your evil that will be sought by us. With every breath we shall hunt them down. Each day we will spill their blood ‘til it rains down from the skies. Do not kill, do not rape, to not steal. These are principles, which every man of every faith can embrace. These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost. There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption, into our domain. But if you do you, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three, and on that day, you will reap it. And we will send you to whatever god you wish. And shepherds we shall be, for thee my Lord for thee, power hath descended forth from thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command. We shall flow a river forth to thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

I forgot another one

"Thats what i said booty traps!"

I dont really pay attention to movie lines

"Help Help! I'm being repressed!"

Now name that movie :)

Ok, I love you. I love that movie. My friends all decided that I'm gonna be Weeza when I get old. Cranky old southern lady who wears funny hats and overalls and says things like "Go to HELL!"

Goonies. "Pinchers of Peril! I was saved by my Pinchers of Peril!"

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. A Class-ic.

"If the milk turns sour, I ain't the pussy to drink it - know what I mean?"
Lock, Stock....

Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson), in "As Good As It Gets", responding to something his new, gay roommate, Simon (Greg Kinnear) had braved to say to him:

Melvin (re: Simon's failed attempt to have Melvin feel better): "And you people are supposed to be sensitive and sharp?"
Simon (finally getting aggressive with Melvin): "Then you tell me why! You're the one who's 'dying here'!"
Melvin (nervous, wringing hands): "I don't know, I mean...I'm drowning here--and you're describing the water!"

"FLY FATTASS FLY!"

I have a few.. rather than waste space, I'll just say pretty much everything that's said in Fight Club.

Also...

"I shot Marvin in the face!"

"Mmm..Mmm...Somebody threw away a perfectly good white boy." - Better Off Dead
"I love all of God's creature's - I just like some of em' better stuffed! (and he's one of them)"
- Hope Floats
"You just got's to coordinate..." -Boomerang
"I'm gonna look So Nice!" Bobcat Goldthwait in One Crazy Summer (putting on the Godzilla costume)
"Hey kids! - Big Ben, Parlaiment.......................Big Ben, Parlaiment,.." National Lampoon's European Vacation
and more recently in Malibu's most Wanted: when they were giving him "the test" in the movie theatre...........he totally fails the test when he stands up and screams "Run, dog, run!!!" at the screen! Too funny!!

"Better Off Dead"! ! ! ! Great, funny flick. My favorite line from that one is "Sorry about blowin' your mom up and all, Ricky." Remember Rickie's sloven mother at the dinner table? " 'Love!' I'm talking about the international language of 'Love'!"...while she's sucking the food pieces off her fat fingers. (Not the 'universal language' but the 'international language' - ha!)
Did you ever see "The Sure Thing" (Rob Reiner directed) - also starring an incredibly young John Cusak? He played opposite a really young Daphne Ziggwenaggweneirzzerwig (or however you say her name - the woman on "Melrose Place").

ohmygod - yess!!! Yeah, I'm a big Cusack fan - saw The Sure Thing too - very good movie...Did you see One Crazy Summer? It has a really really young Demi Moore in it - it's my favorite Cusack flick....(I like the old ones) Have you seen Identity - the new serious flick yet? what do you think of him trying to not be funny anymore?......I mean....I think he can pull it off both ways - he's great as a serious actor but he is frieking terrific as a funnyman!!!!

I thought he was excellent in "Being John Malkovich"! Funny without trying - or even supposed to be!

Oh yeah - that was terrific - I actually thought about buying that one at one point....I need to rent that one and consider that again - haven't seen it in awhile - maybe they'll have it on the previously viewed shelves for me to pick up at a good price! Thanks for reminding me!

oh and thought of one more great movie with a couple good lines this morning that NOBODY has posted yet and I couldn't believe it!!! How about:
"Richard, get off the babysitter!" and "sometimes, you just gotta say ....what the fudge." from Risky Business!!!

I don't think I have one. I have favourite film moments: Daniel and Peachy singing towards the end of Man Who Would be King, everything coming together at the end of Signs.......

And all the more impressive because he wrote it himself.

The one about the loofah in the pocket reminded me of something that happened at my brother's school. One of the teachers (female) is a bit devoid of a sense of humour a lot of the time. She had a student in one of her lessons who came in with a bottle of Coke sticking out of a pocket (it's the sixth-form, so they're allowed to eat and drink in lessons). She said "Is that a bottle of Coke in your pocket.....?"

Is there any other possible response to that?

The lad promptly came back with "No miss, I'm just pleased to see you."

He's got in so much trouble over it . Personally, if I was the teacher, I would have pissed myself laughing!

I heard he just sort of ad-libbed it.... Of course, it's very nearly gibberish, but it sounded cool.

It's definitely the pivot for the whole film, which it wouldn't be if it was just the way it was in the script. I have to watch it again sometime!

How can she be so out of touch? Surely the principle knows it's just a line.

She's pretty much in charge of the sixth-form - the headteacher doesn't have much to do with upper school. I'm waiting to hear from my brother what actually happens to the poor guy. Even if she really didn't like it, you would have thought she'd have passed it off with a laugh. I'm sure most of the teachers would just have found it really funny.

Sounds like she's a bit sexually hung up.

There's a "Director's Cut" now too... I saw in the theatres when it came out (several years ago). I think they got rid of the voice-over and the ending implied she would not live. I think... to be honest, it's gotten a bit mixed up in my head now. I've read stuff about how some people think there are clues that Deckard was also a replicant...

That's the only one I've seen, not the original. I know the computer game better than the film - in that, it's strongly implied that the character you play (also a cop) is a replicant, but there's also evidence to suggest that you're just being set-up to look like a replicant so you'll help the other replicants out. It's a great game

Yes, I played that game too... years ago.. I think you could replay it to get different endings, but I only played it once.

I was part-way through my second playing of it when I had to come back to uni I was just about to properly side with the Reps!

"A little ultra violence"

Space Cowboys : Don Sutherland introducing himself to a lady "You can call me... anytime"

some time when agent smith says 'mr anderson' in the matrix... or probably, i can't think of one now, but any line that describes something about how i feel about life or another funny line?

"All my life I had to fight...." c/o The Color Purple

1. Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
