Best Line From A Movie?

[toptuan]

The greatest Post-Mortem One-Liner of all time is the following:

Schwarzenegger has just chased down and run Sully's car off the road. After ramming his own car head-on at 80 miles-per-hour into a telephone pole, Arnold checks to see if Rae Dawn is alive and then pulls Sully out of his car, demanding to know where his daughter is.

Sully tells him to f#ck off. Arnold says, "Listen, loyalty is very touching but it's not the most important thing in your life right now. Gravity is."

Great line, but, well, keep reading.

Arnold then carries Sully over to a cliff and dangles him over the edge by one leg. After some more words are exchanged... Schwarzenegger says to Sully, "Hey Sully, remember when I said I'd kill you last?" Sully then says, "Yeah, you promised you'd kill me last." To which Arnie responds, "I lied." He then drops Sully off the cliff.

Later, Arnold returns to Rae Dawn who asks, "What happened to Sully?"

"I had to let him go."

Holy sh#t, is that funny/brilliant?! It has had me laughing for the past twenty years.

Not sure if it was in the movie , but it was in the book.

Barley Blaire being quizzed by Britis Intelligence (OK

I know an oxymoron too when I see it) about about

whether he had been "intimate" with some lady or other.

His reply ?

"We had sex , but we were never intimate."

[Hermano Lobo]

From my favourite, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid

-----

Butch Cassidy: What happened to the old bank? It was beautiful.

Guard: People kept robbing it.

Butch Cassidy: Small price to pay for beauty.

-------

Butch Cassidy: I have vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.

-------

Butch Cassidy: If he'd just pay me what he's spending to make me stop me robbing him,

I'd stop robbing him.

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

Percy Garris: [singing] Oh don't you remember sweet Betsy from Pike / Crossed the high mountains with her lover Ike / Two yoke of oxen and big yellow dog / Called Shanghai rooster and one spotted hog / Hoodle-dang-hootie-i-doh, hoodle-dang-hootie-ay, hoodle-dang-hootie-i-doh, hoodle-dang-hootie-ay / Shanghai ran off and the cattle all died / last piece of bacon that morning was fried...

Butch Cassidy: [interrupting] I think they're in the trees up ahead.

Sundance Kid: In the bushes on the left.

Butch Cassidy: I'm telling you they're in the trees up ahead.

Sundance Kid: You take the trees, I'll take the bushes.

Percy Garris: Will you two beginners cut it out.

Butch Cassidy: Well, we're just trying to spot an ambush, Mr. Garris.

Percy Garris: Morons. I've got morons on my team. Nobody is going to rob us going down the mountain. We have got no money going down the mountain. When we have got the money, on the way back, then you can sweat.

-----------

Butch Cassidy: Jeesh, all Bolivia can't look like this.

Sundance Kid: How do you know? This might be the garden spot of the whole country. People may travel hundreds of miles just to get to this spot where we're standing now. This might be the Atlantic City, New Jersey of all Bolivia for all you know.

Butch Cassidy: Look I know a lot more about Bolivia than you know about Atlantic City, New Jersey I can tell you that.

Sundance Kid: AHA. You do huh? I was born there, I was born in New Jersey. Was brought up there, so...

Butch Cassidy: You're from the east? I didn't know that.

Sundance Kid: The total tonnage of what you don't know is enough to shatter...

Etta Place: I'm not sure we're accomplishing as much as we'd like here.

Sundance Kid: Listen, you're job is to back me up, because you'd starve without me. And you, your job is to shut up.

Butch Cassidy: He'll feel a lot better after he's robbed a couple of banks.

---------

[Performing their first robbery in Bolivia]

Butch Cassidy: [spanish] Manos a... Manos, um...

[Butch pulls out a card that helps him remember his words]

Butch Cassidy: Manos arriba!

Sundance Kid: They got 'em up! Skip on down.

Butch Cassidy: Arriba!

Sundance Kid: Skip on down!

Butch Cassidy: Todos ustedes "arrismense" a la pared.

Sundance Kid: They're against the wall already!

Butch Cassidy: Donde... Ah, you're so d@mn smart, You read it!

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

Butch Cassidy: How long before you figure they're not after us?

Sundance Kid: A while longer.

Butch Cassidy: How come you're so talkative?

Sundance Kid: Naturally blabby, I guess.

Also from my favourite Casablanca:-

-----

Captain Renault: What in heaven's name brought you to Casablanca?

Rick: My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters.

Captain Renault: The waters? What waters? We're in the desert.

Rick: I was misinformed.

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

Ilsa: I wasn't sure you were the same. Let's see, the last time we met...

Rick: Was La Belle Aurore.

Ilsa: How nice, you remembered. But of course, that was the day the

Germans marched into Paris.

Rick: Not an easy day to forget.

Ilsa: No.

Rick: I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue.

"I killed the president of paraguay... with a fork"

I've racked my brains on this one. Still no idea. Go on - Which film is it then?

A scene from Grosse Pointe Blank

Martin Blank (Cussack) trying to explain to people what he has been doing for the past 10 years at a high school reunion. An excellent film.

[helicoptor]

NO-ONE WILL KNOW THIS ONE!

It was a Jamaican Film I saw when I was a kid in the 70's about farm workers in Jamaica been drafted in to new hotel in the up and coming tourist industry.

The main guy was called Ringo I think he had a job as a waiter and was a bit of a stud with the white lady tourists.

There is one scene where Ringo is talking to one of the younger waiters in the hotel kitchen (who is straight in off the farm) and Ringo offers him a slice of orange ...

In very broad Jamaican dialect..

RINGO : 'Come now eat up dem oranges, boy'

BOY: No sar! (sir)

RINGO : Why you no eat dee orange boy'

BOY: NO SAR!, DEM SAY DEE RAT UP YA BARLS SAR!

( anyone want a translation and or explanation please PM me )

[The Dude]

The Dude digs Jeff Spicoli's take on the American revolution in Fast Times at Ridgemont High:

Jeff Spicoli: So what Jefferson was saying was "Hey! You know, we left this England place because it was bogus. So if we don't get some cool rules ourselves, pronto, we'll just be bogus too." Yeah?

[John_Rambo]

Apocalypse Now....

'You smell that? Do you smell that? That’s napalm, son! Nothing else in the world smells like that! I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, this one time, we bombed this hill, for twelve hours… when it was over I went up there… we didn’t find one of ‘em, not one stinkin’ dink body. But, you know, that smell… that gasoline smell… the whole hill… it smelled like… victory.'

"Hey Jimmy, stick your finger up my ass" .... some X rated flick I watched in my youth !

[Travel2003]

Hi there.

I know this tread is about to get very long.

Really enjoyed reading all the "lines".

What about "Forest Gump"?

If anyone ask me about my favorite film, thats the one that normally pops up in my mind.

Really loved the one when Forest get a letter/telegram from (Lieutenant Dan?) stating there is no need to worry about money (or the future?) as he has invested some in a some sort of fruit company (Apple).

I could go on for hours... but here are few faves

From Anchorman:

Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diago, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.

Ron Burgundy: I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

Ron Burgundy: I thought you were kidding. I thought it was a joke. I even wrote it down in my diary - Veronica had a very funny joke today. I laughed about it later that night.

Ron Burgundy: I'm in a glass case of emotion.

From Napoleon Dynamite:

Napoleon Dynamite: [referring to Deb's milk] I see you're drinking 1%. Is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to.

Napoleon Dynamite: You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills... Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.

Napoleon Dynamite: I caught you a delicious bass.

From Withnail & I:

Withnail

• We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now.

• I feel like a pig shat in my head.

• I must have some booze. I demand to have some booze.

• I have a heart condition. If you hit me, it's murder.

Uncle Monty

• Flowers are simply tarts; prostitutes for the bees.

• I mean to have you, boy, even if it must be burglary.

Danny

• I invented it in Camberwell, and it looks like a carrot.

• This'll tend to make you very high.

Aitch: Look, with this pill, they say you take it and that's it. Your hair don't grow, you don't go bald, it stays the same. You have your hair cut once, in whatever style you want, and it stays like that for the rest of your natural life. It's revolutionary. Now, I'm not saying this is gonna happen next year but it will happen, it's definitely coming. Hairdressers are shitting themselves!

This one from the Matrix reminds me of my first time in Pattaya

Morpheus: I see it in your eyes. You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is expecting to wake up. Ironically, that's not far from the truth. Do you believe in fate, Neo?

Quotes from National Lampoon's Animal House (1978)

Dean Vernon Wormer: Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

D-Day: Hey, quit your blubberin'. When I get through with this baby you won't even recognize it.

Otter: Flounder, you can't spend your whole life worrying about your mistakes! You fukked up - you trusted us! Hey, make the best of it! Maybe we can help.

Flounder: [crying] That's easy for you to say! What am I going to tell Fred?

Otter: I'll tell you what. We'll tell Fred you were doing a great job taking care of his car, but you parked it out back last night and in the morning, it was gone. We report it to the police, D-Day takes care of the wreck, the insurance company buys your brother a new car.

Flounder: Will that work?

Otter: Hey, it's gotta work better than the truth.

D-Day: We have an old saying in Delta House: don't get mad, get even.

Marion Wormer: You can take your thumb out of my ass any time now, Carmine.

[in the supermarket vegetable section]

Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Mine's bigger.

Marion Wormer: [looks questioningly at him]

Eric 'Otter' Stratton: My cucumber. It's bigger.

Eric 'Otter' Stratton: I think vegetables can be very sensuous, don't you?

Marion Wormer: No, vegetables are sensual. People are sensuous.

Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Right. Sensual. That's what I meant. My name's Eric Stratton. People call me Otter.

Marion Wormer: My name's Marion. People call me Mrs. Wormer.

Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Oh, we have a Dean Wormer at Faber.

Marion Wormer: How interesting. I have a husband named Dean Wormer at Faber. Still want to show me your cucumber?

---------

Doug Neidermeyer: And most recently of all, a "Roman Toga Party" was held from which we have received more than two dozen reports of individual acts of perversion SO profound and disgusting that decorum prohibits listing them here.

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

Dean Vernon Wormer: Put Neidermeyer on it. He's a sneaky little sh1t just like you.

Jack Nicholson to helen Hunt from AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

"you make me want to be a better man".

[bkkmick]

Didn't actually make it to the movie, but when shooting a movie Dean Martin (famous drinker) was sitting at a kitchen table and it came down to the point in the scene when he had to drink a glass of milk. He leaned across the table, reached for the glass of milk, stopped and shouted "Stunt Man!".

I like it anyway.
