patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Let's hear what lines/quotes we all like "Houston, we have a problem," from Apollo 13, 1995. -- I love this and been saying it. Got to be classified as a classic when it becomes a cliche, as this certainly has! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine." The great "Bogey"......... "Casablanca" How many immortal lines can come from one movie? "We'll always have Paris." "Here's lookin' at you, kid." "I stick my neck out for nobody" "There are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade." "If you don't get on that plane now, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. But soon. And for the rest of your life." and the closer. "Louis, I think this is the begining of a beautiful friendship." and on and on they go!

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 "Hello my names Pussy, Pussy Galore"One of the Bond movies. I dam_n near fell out of my seat when I first heard that line in the theater! "Well do ya feel lucky, do ya?"A Clint movie. Ahh, Monty, that was not "a line", it was a classic soliloquy. Correctly, it was: "I know what you're thinkin'. "Did he fire six shots, or only five?" Well, to tell ya the truth, in all this excitement, I kind of lost track myself. But bein' as this is a .44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you gotta ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?" Now, can you not see that entire scene as you read that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Rod Steiger's line from "In the Heat of the Night" - "I got the motive which is money and the body which is dead". Again, it's all in the delivery. Rod Steiger delivered that line with such power that it has to be a classic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I made him an offer he couldn't refuse Another that became a cliche line that we hear (and probably use) constantly!

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Go on punk.....make my day Sudden Impact OOPS! Another misquote. It was: "Go ahead. Make my day." And it's another that had become an oft repeated cliche, and, thus, a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Another line from Mae West, it might be in 'My Little Chickadee'. A woman sees Mae wearing a number of diamonds and exclaims, 'Goodness, look at those diamonds!' Mae West: 'Honey, goodness had nothing to do with it'. For it's time, one of the most risque lines every spoken in a movie. Same was true for her "Is that a gun in your pocket ..." line. Mae West was amazingly sexy and funny; and WAY ahead of her time!

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 "Frankly Scarlett, I don't give a dam_n." -- Gone With The Wind. Ahh, there we have what is probably the most frequently misquoted line from a movie in history. Although "Play it again, Sam" is right there with it. (Bogie never said that.) The line, as quoted correctly earlier in this thread, was: " Frankly, my dear, I don't give a dam_n." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTHUR I don't personally find the line particularly memorable. But the performance by Sir John Gielgud is among my all time favorite supporting actor roles. He was simply fantastic in that movie!

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 These are all SOOOOOO OLD, but classics in everyday use still.When I'm good, I'm very, very good, but when I'm bad, I'm better. I'm No Angel, spoken by Mae West It's not the men in my life that counts - it's the life in my men. I'm No Angel, spoken by Mae West It's better to be looked over than overlooked. Belle of the Nineties, spoken by Mae West Between two evils, I always try the one I never tried before. Klondike Annie, spoken by Mae West As I said earlier, one of the best combinations of sex and humor that has ever appeared on the screen! Mae West is a classic! Let's see, here's a subject for a whole new thread that I'll start later. (Please don't comment in this thread.) Which female movie stars have given us the best combination of sexiness and comedy over all the years of movies? Yeah. That will be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsfangr Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 " I'll be back " << The terminator>> Hated the "wooden" performance by Arnold, but the fact is that the line is one of the most used cliches of all time.

khunandy Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I reckon as an opening scene you would be hard pressed to beat George C Scott in "Patton". That is THE most powerful opening dialogue of any movie I have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironhut Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 "Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.

game4shame Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 from a horrendously cheesy porn film my mate had when we were teenagers - title 'perfect partners'. the scene is a guy getting a blow job from some tart. her 'husband' is watching with an apparent look of anger. the guy on the receiving end of the oral pleasure looks over to the husband with a smug grin and says: 'sir, you're wife sucks c*ck better than anyone I've met before'. classic.
