Favorite Movie Quotes

[Lord Voldemoo]

I'll go with the cliche fanboy picks.

"I find your lack of faith disturbing" (Vader, A New Hope)

"Apology accepted, Captain Needa" (Vader, ESB)

[Spifftacular SquirrelGirl]

From "Saved!"



Veronica: "Roland is so blessed to have such a thoughtful sister. You know, in countries like China, Hilary Faye would probably have been killed at birth."

Hilary Faye: "And then where would you be, Roland?"

Roland: "China."

[Seppuku]

Pretty much anything said in His Girl Friday. The classic lines come so hard and fast that I usually watch that movie with the subtitles on so I don't miss anything.

And now for the spamming:

Hildy Johnson: I wouldn't cover the burning of Rome for you if they were just lighting it up!
-----
Walter Burns: Look, Hildy, I only acted like any husband that didn't want to see his home broken up.
Hildy Johnson: What home?
Walter Burns: "What home"? Don't you remember the home I promised you?
------
Walter Burns: You've got the brain of a pancake. This isn't just a story you're covering - it's a revolution. This is the greatest yarn in journalism since Livingstone discovered Stanley.
Hildy Johnson: It's the other way around.
Walter Burns: Oh, well, don't get technical at a time like this.



EDIT: Writing this post reminds me of a line I quote all the time (and most of the time, people don't even realise I'm doing it):

Go, get the butter.

Heh, heh. If only they knew...

[Chilli]

You're afraid to dive into the plasma pool, aren't ya'? You're afraid to be destroyed and recreated,aren't ya? I'll bet you think you woke me up about the flesh, don't you? But you only know society's straight line about the flesh. You can't penetrate beyond society's sick, grave, fear of the flesh. Drink deep, or taste not, the plasma spring. Y'see what I'm sayin? And I'm not just talking about sex and penetration, I'm talking about penetration beyond the veil of the flesh. A deep penetrating dive into the plasma pool.

-Seth Brundle

I love that part. Goldblum was never better than his work in THE FLY.

What. The. Fuck?

That film is worth a watch just to make sense of that dialogue.

[Cha-Ka Khan]

I've always loved the scene in "It's a Wonderful Life" where Old Man Potter "offers" George a job. He starts out by congenially heaping praise on him, and then slowly morphs it into a complete dressing down of the man, simply by speaking the truth. A great monologue, and a great delivery by Lionel Barrymore:

POTTER (laughs): George, now that's just what I like so much about you.

(pleasantly and smoothly)

George, I'm an old man, and most people hate me. But I don't like them either, so that makes it all even. You know just as well as I do that I run practically everything in this town but the Bailey Building and Loan. You know, also, that for a number of years I've been trying to get control of it . . . or kill it. But I haven't been able to do it. You have been stopping me. In fact, you have beaten me, George, and as anyone in this county can tell you, that takes some doing. Take during the depression, for instance. You and I were the only ones that kept our heads. You saved the Building and Loan, and I saved all the rest.

GEORGE: Yes. Well, most people say you stole all the rest.

POTTER: The envious ones say that, George, the suckers. Now, I have stated my side very frankly. Now, let's look at your side. Young man, twenty-seven, twenty-eight . . . married, making, say . . . forty a week.

GEORGE (indignantly): Forty-five!

POTTER: Forty-five. Forty-five. Out of which, after supporting your mother, and paying your bills, you're able to keep, say, ten, if you skimp. A child or two comes along, and you won't even be able to save the ten. Now, if this young man of twenty-eight was a common, ordinary yokel, I'd say he was doing fine. But George Bailey is not a common, ordinary yokel. He's an intelligent, smart, ambitious young man — who hates his job –– who hates the Building and Loan almost as much as I do. A young man who's been dying to get out on his own ever since he was born. A young man . . . the smartest one of the crowd, mind you, a young man who has to sit by and watch his friends go places, because he's trapped. Yes, sir, trapped into frittering his life away playing nursemaid to a lot of garlic-eaters.

(pause)

Do I paint a correct picture. . . or do I exaggerate?

[Worst Part's Almost Over]

'Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!!'

If that's not a classic line, I don't know what is

I'd also like to offer this up as possibly the worst piece of movie dialogue I've ever endured in my 24 short years:

'I'm your man, your ram-o-dam, your can o' spam!' - Mario, Super Mario Brothers

[DaleTremont]

I often think Donnie Darko is hideously overrated, but that is a good line.

[Worst Part's Almost Over]

I often think Donnie Darko is hideously overrated, but that is a good line.

I think the only people who overate Donnie Darko are those who can't see it for what it is - an emotional science fiction film. I love it, but in the end most people try to make it out to be something more than an emotional science fiction film.

Shadow of a Doubt, Joseph Cotten's Uncle Charlie two killer monologues...

The cities are full of women, middle-aged widows, husbands, dead, husbands who've spent their lives making fortunes, working and working. And then they die and leave their money to their wives, their silly wives. And what do the wives do, these useless women? You see them in the hotels, the best hotels, every day by the thousands, drinking the money, eating the money, losing the money at bridge, playing all day and all night, smelling of money, proud of their jewelry but of nothing else, horrible, faded, studly, greedy women... Are they human or are they studly, wheezing animals, hmm? And what happens to animals when they get too studly and too old?

You think you know something, don't you? You think you're the clever little girl who knows something. There's so much you don't know, so much. What do you know, really? You're just an ordinary little girl, living in an ordinary little town. You wake up every morning of your life and you know perfectly well that there's nothing in the world to trouble you. You go through your ordinary little day, and at night you sleep your untroubled ordinary little sleep, filled with peaceful stupid dreams. And I brought you nightmares. Or did I? Or was it a silly, inexpert little lie? You live in a dream. You're a sleepwalker, blind. How do you know what the world is like? Do you know the world is a foul sty? Do you know, if you rip off the fronts of houses, you'd find swine? The world's a hell. What does it matter what happens in it? Wake up, Charlie. Use your wits. Learn something.

utterly delectable sexism...

Guess the movie:

"They used to say that a child conceived in love has a greater chance of happiness. They don't say that anymore."

[Keepcoolbutcare]

Rosemary's Baby?

[Ribbons]

Heh, I like the way you think. That's an interesting guess, but the spawn in question isn't quite so diabolical in this case, just slightly emo.

[Keepcoolbutcare]

The Omen?

i'm just joshing, I have no idea...

[buster00]

It sounds familiar, but I can't place it.

It kinda sounds like something J.D. would say at the beginning of a "Scrubs" episode.

[Maui]

Juno: No, for real. I think you are the coolest person I've ever met. And you don't even have to try.

Bleeker: I try really hard, actually....

There was just something about that scene that really cracked me up. This dorky kid in a track uniform saying he tries really hard to be cool.

[Ribbons]

Guess the movie:

"They used to say that a child conceived in love has a greater chance of happiness. They don't say that anymore."

Here we go. I'm surprised I was able to find the actual scene. Thanks, Internet!

[Nachokoolaid]

I love Gattaca. I'm glad you figured it out, because it was driving me nuts.

Just watched Karate Kid. So gloriously cheeseball.

There's actually a band called Sweep the Leg Johnny too, which I thought was kind of awesome.

Sweep the Leg-the song is better. All those actors from the original movie are in it (except Morita and Shue)

[Ribbons]

I cannot, sir; I suspect I'll be losing a few points from my geek card, but that doesn't sound familiar to me at all

OH! to bad... Anyone eles.. CAN YOU NAME THAT QUOTE!

[Ribbons]

I had two quotes I wanted to drop the other day, but I can't remember one of them now.

One of them was from Voldemort in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: "Get back here, Potter! I want you to look at me when I kill you! I want to see the life leave your eyes!"

[bastard_robo]

"I release you from my service. Go die in a way you deemed fit"

[Nachokoolaid]

Did they make a TMNT I was not aware of? All three have been guessed in this thread. Maybe it was that crappy TMNT live action TV show with the chick turtle. Man, that sucked.

[Fried Gold]

Rogue was correct with Turtles 2.

It likely didn't help that the quote is wrong.

[bastard_robo]

It was the First TMNT, I asked which one, as the NEW movie is also called TMNT.

It wasnt 2, as the sceen was the turtles were haning out in Aprils Apartment, Raph gets pissed at Mikey and heads upstairs, only to be attacked by the foot.

[Fried Gold]

"Hey Mikey? Do you think you could crunch a little louder? I can still hear in this ear."
