Best Line From A Movie?

[Fred C. Dobbs]

From the Shining, husband Jack Torrance to his wife Wendy Torrance.

"Are you out of your ######ing mind"

[kayo]

There are of course, thousands of memorable movie quotes, and I'm a huge movie trivia fan, so my propositions may seem a bit under my normal high quality of bland humour, but here goes...

first off the serious, A bit of Blade Runner:

Only Harrison Ford could pull this line off:

Deckard (HF): I have had people walk out on me before, but not when I was being so charming

introspective quote of forever, by Rutger Hauer as his character dies:

Batty (RH): 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.

For humourous Quotes, jesus, this forum and all of our combined computers wouldn't hold the number of funny ROTFLMAO quotes, so i select two from a movie I don't think anybody will mention, may surprise some:

First quote, I think everyone can relate to, the second is

Hugh Grant (sam) and his onscreen wife (Rebecca) sitting in a posh restaurant when the inevitable happens after the Titular Nine Months have passed:

Dr. Kosevich: If it's not one thing, it's your mother.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rebecca Taylor: Sam! My water broke!

Samuel Faulkner: Well, we'll get you another one!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And finally... My favorite stoner movie for laughs is Friday, or any Cheech & Chong

Next!

maybe shallow Hal ?

when the guy was dining with his attractive female neighbour and he asked her why it had not happened before.

she replies " i always thought you were a dickwad "

apparently her opinion had changed after seeing his plumper walking away from his room .

Everyway which way but loose!

Try this one for size.

"You broke into my house, stole my property, murdered by servants and my pets, and THAT is whatieves me the most! You killed my snake..."

A bit trickier methinks!

In Easy Rider Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper enter a greasy spoon in deepest darkest redneck america...the locals present immediately start to whisper. Then, one old guy looks over and looks back to whatever he was doing and mutters 'looks like a couple of refugees from a gorilla love in...'

a classic line and one that I used to use as a greeting when encountering hirsute associates in California in the 70s...

tutsi, that is the best movie of all time and a great scene in the diner

"Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine." Rick (Humphrey Bogart) in Casablanca

"You know you don't have to act with me, Steve. You don't have to say anything, and you don't have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and... blow. " Marie 'Slim' Browning (Lauren Bacall) in To Have and Have Not.

'you do that again an' I'll let it outta ya in little round holes'...Fred C Dobbs when he finds that the intruder Cody has helped himself to their water to make coffee...

with this line and the 'stinkin' badges' line by the great Alfonso Bedoya, Treasure of the Sierra Madre has got to be one of the greatest quotable films of all time...no wonder it got the Oscar for best screenplay...as well as Best Supporting Actor (Walter Huston) and Best Director (his son John Huston)...no cigar for Bogie though...a shame as it was his finest performance...miles better than Charlie Olnutt in The African Queen that did get him the Oscar...another memorable John Huston film...

quiz: what character did John Huston play in the great Roman Polanski movie 'Chinatown'?

Good job bringing that movie up. That's an Oliver Stone screenplay and one of the best ever. Like the restaurant scene:

"this what it's all about man? eating and fcking and sucking? then what? you're 50, you got a bag for a belly. you got tits, they got hair on 'em"

So many years back that many of you on this forum were just a glimmer in your daddy's eye:

There was a movie called Casino Royale with David Niven, Peter Sellers, and Woody Allen in a spoof of Bond movies. In one scene one of the female characters is following another woman who is involved with the evil SMERSH. She follows the woman into a ladies room, and sees the woman she is following use a rotating John to go behind the wall into the secret hideout of SMERSH. The actress discovers there is a hidden switch that makes the toilet rotate. She gets on the toilet, activates the switch and says, "Oh well, just like mother said; all my life I've just been going the rounds with another John."

At the beginning of the movie David Niven, playing a retired Bond agrees to come back as 007 at the request of Q. During the first few minutes of the movie Niven has been stuttering. When he gets to his new office he meets the daughter of Miss Moneypenny. He tells the daughter, "Oh, I was had a bit of a thing with your mother" "I know", says the daughter, "Mother always said we had the same interest in men."

Niven then says to Moneypenny, "Oh by the way, have you heard me stuttering since I came here?"

"Why no sir," she says.

"Well if do hear me stuttering", says Niven,"be sure to stop me. I'll be too busy with this new job, and I won't have the time for that sort of thing now."

Love that movie. Saw it about 1965 or 1966.

From the movie “Pi” – low budget B-movie

“Everything in life has a pattern…. a pattern can be translated to numbers….and the numbers can be translated to a graph”

Since my training’s in forecasting, map making, and graph reading - Watching this movie was a life changing experience for me, and this’s how I broke the wallstreet secret in trading 6 yrs ago.

I like the two lines in "BARFLY" with Mickey Rourke....

"I don't hate people, I just feel better when they are not around" and

when asked "what do you do?" he says "I DRINK"

Of course, I think only fellow alkies can appreciate great movies such as Barfly

[tutsiwarrior]

back in the 30s there were a number of Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn movies, real classics that I'm sure that many of you of a certain age must have seen at one time or another. In one, the negro slave, Jim overhears Tom and Huck's plan to run away and them bein' wild young'uns decides that he must go with them as a protector.

well...Jim has to convince them that he must come along. Jim has a 'hairball' that he carries around in his pocket... and while in serious discussion with Tom and Huck arranges behind his back to have three hairs protuding therefrom...Jim convinces them of the hairball's mysterious powers and says 'de hairball he say tree must go' and displays the three hairs stickin' up from de hairball...mighty powerful language for a kids film...

some years later my 16 y.o. sister and her mate (who was later to become my partner for 8 years) were preparing to run away and do an 'on the road' number. Me, having the same fears as Jim for Tom and Huck I said 'de hairball he say...etc'. The friend, confused said 'what?'...sister said 'brother tutsi is coming along'.

I accompanied them as far as SF and they ended up in Eugene...1971...

Not a particularly good film - Predator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) but a memorable line between two of the commandos in the jungle, one says to the other, " You're bleeding", the other says (without even looking at his injury) "Aint got time to Bleed!!!"

Testosterone overload funny with it

[brahmburgers]

From 'An Officer and a Gentleman'

The brand new boot camp recruit greets his sargeant on this first morning,

"Great morning we're having, sir."

Sargant replies, "Who do I look like, The f**king weatherman?!"

- - - - - - - -

In Steve Martin's 'All of Me" when Steve's female personna offers his hand to the blind black musincian in greeting, the black guy says, "awfully hairy fingers for a chick."

- - - - - -

In 'A Fish Called Wanda" when Kevin Kline character catches and bashes John Cleese's character robbing his own house, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." then after a long pause, "what the h*ll are you doing robbing your own house?!"

To many great quotes from my all time favorite 'The devil's advocate', but here are some of the best:

John Milton: Let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, f#ckin' ass off! He's a tight-ass! He's a SADIST! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? NEVER!

John Milton: There's this beautiful girl just f#ck#d me forty ways from Sunday... we're done, she's walking to the bathroom, she's trying to walk, she turns... she looks... it's me. Not the Trojan army just f#ck#d her. Little ol' me. She gets this look on her face like: "How the hel_l did that happen?"

Kevin Lomax: What are you?

John Milton: Oh, I have so many names...

Kevin Lomax: Satan.

John Milton: Call me Dad.

Kevin Lomax: In the Bible you loose. We're destined to lose dad.

John Milton: Well consider the source son.

Kevin Lomax: God damnit, what did you do to my wife?

John Milton: Well, on a scale of one to ten... ten being the most depraved act of sexual theatre know to man... one being your average Friday night run-through at the Lomaxes' household... I'd say, not to be immodest, Mary Ann and I got it on at about... eleven.

Mary Ann Lomax: Say I can handle it.

Kevin Lomax: You can handle it.

Mary Ann Lomax: Say something nice.

Kevin Lomax: Something nice.

John Milton: Guilt is like a bag of f#ck#n' bricks. All ya gotta do is set it down.

Kevin Lomax: What about love?

John Milton: Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate.

John Milton: You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire; you build egos the size of cathedrals; fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse; grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold-plated fantasies, until every human becomes an aspiring emperor, becomes his own God... and where can you go from there?

John Milton: A woman's shoulders are the front lines of her mystique, and her neck, if she's alive, has all the mystery of a border town. A no-man's land in that battle between the mind and the body.

And so on, just watch the movie if you never did.

It's me,

Kevin

Edward Norton: "What kind of dining set defines me as a person?"

Some classics on here! had a laugh at some quotes.

ALEXANDER (colin farrell)

"Old man...we're in new worlds"

"By Zeus and all the gods...what makes you so much better than them? Better than you really are.In you and those like you IS THIS!!!

"What disturbs me most is not your lack of respect for my judgement. Its your contempt for a world far older than ours"

Damon wayans - some cheesy army film anyone know the name?

"i'll shove my foot so far up your ass that the sweat on my knee will quench your thirst"

PREDATOR is full of genius lines from all of the cast too many to mention but my faves are "YOU ONE UGLY MOTHERFUGGA" and "RUN GO GET TO THE CHOPPER!" as only Arnie could deliver them.

[helicoptor]

Another bland Arnie Film 'Total Recall'

He walks into the bar, the Mutant with the mutant face chirps up, 'You got some balls showing your face in here..'

Arnie: ' Look who's talking'

North by Northwest

Eve Kendall: What happened with your first two marriages?

Roger Thornhill: My wives divorced me.

Eve Kendall: Why?

Roger Thornhill: They said I led a dull life.

Roger Thornhill: Now you listen to me, I'm an advertising man, not a red herring. I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself "slightly" killed.

That's what happened because I went to Thailand

[farangsay]

From some movie that was playing in the bar the other night.

"So , Calvin , have you spent your whole life in New Mexico ?"

Calvin : "Not yet."

"............Houston we have a problem!"
