Everyone quotes from movies now and again. Sometimes the moment is too perfect to pass up!
So I was wondering what your favourite movie qoutes are?
1: "They are coming to get you Barbera!"
2: "Game over man! Game over!"
3: "Fly fat ass! Fly!!"
4: "Hawkmen DIVE!"
5: "How does the same gak happen to the same guy twice?!"
And my personal favourite: "I'm Batman....."
1."i love these quiet little moments before the storm" Leon
2. Woman "i just had a child!!!"
Man "i bet it was DEEElicious looks like you downed the whole thing" my best friends girl (movie full of great quotes all of which would result in a ban for me)
"A few times in my life I've had moments of absolute clarity, when for a few brief seconds the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived my life on these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be. " - A Single Man
"There are countless ingredients that make up the human body and mind, like all the components that make up me as an individual with my own personality. Sure I have a face and voice to distinguish myself from others, but my thoughts and memories are unique only to me, and I carry a sense of my own destiny. Each of those things are just a small part of it. I collect information to use in my own way. All of that blends to create a mixture that forms me and gives rise to my conscience. I feel confined, only free to expand myself within boundaries" - Ghost in the Shell
"Death is the road to awe. " - The Fountain
"I hate it when they look like Tarzan but sound like Jane. " - Mysterious Skin
"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fething big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fething fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the feth you are on Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fething junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fethed up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?" - Trainspotting
"There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there. " - American Psycho
"Someday this war's gonna end." Apocalypse Now. It's the line after the famous one, about the smell of napalm and winning. It's kind of odd that the preceding line is so famous, when that line captures the movie so perfectly.
"If I never meet you in this life, let me feel the lack." The Thin Red Line.
"Look at this jungle. Look at those vines, the way they twine around, swallowing everything. Nature's cruel." Also from The Thin Red Line.
"I've snapped and plotted all my life. There's no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once." The Lion in Winter.
"Y'know that ringing in your ears? That eee? That's the sound of the ear cells dying, like their swan song. Once it's gone you'll never hear that frequency again. Enjoy it while it lasts." Children of Men.
*Hears noises from supply closet* "Hey whose in their!"*Opens Door* "Supplies!" *Ninjas come flying out* -UHF
Captain Hikaru Sulu: In range? Helmsman Lojur: Not yet sir. Captain Hikaru Sulu: Come on, come on. Helmsman Lojur: She'll fly apart! Captain Hikaru Sulu: *Fly her apart then!* -Star Trek VI
I'll have to second all the Arnold quotes as well. Although the most important is obviously:
"Wrong! Conan, what is best in life?"
"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentation of their women."
Edit: (Taught my three year old this along with a variety of other fun quotes. He can tell you what is best in life, if there is currently time for love Dr Jones, what soylent green is made from, all the Mr Freeze lines and a variety of other fun things.)
Also, I would remiss in not mentioning.
"What's in the bag, Egg?..."
"You know what ol' Jack Burton says at a time like this?..."
etc
"To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you and to hear the lamentations of the women." - Conan on what's best in life
"Chaplain Charlie will tell you about how the free world will conquer Communism with the aid of God and a few Marines! God has a hard-on for Marines because we kill everything we see! He plays His games, we play ours! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls! God was here before the Marine Corps! So you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the Corps! Do you ladies understand?" - Drill Sergeant (R. Lee Ermy) in Full Metal Jacket
"You have a bomb strapped to your chest and the first thing you think to do is come to a school full of young children?!" - 30 Minutes or Less
"For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me... it was Tuesday."
—Street Fighter: The Movie
"Inconceivable!"
"I do not think that word means what you think it means" - The Princess Bride
Mal: "Ain't all buttons and charts, little albatross. Know what the first rule of flying is? Well I s'pose you do, since you already know what I'm 'bout to say."
River: "I do. But I like to hear you say it."
Mal: "Love. Can know all the math in the 'verse but take a boat in the air that you don't love? She'll shake you off just as sure as a turn in the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughtta fall down...tell you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens...makes her a home."
"Sir Permission to fire?"
"SIR DO WE HAVE AN ORDER?"
Noah Vosen: [in car, on cell phone] Perhaps we can arrange a meet.
Jason Bourne: Where are you now?
Noah Vosen: I'm sitting in my office.
Jason Bourne: I doubt that.
Noah Vosen: Why would you doubt that?
Jason Bourne: If you were in your office right now we'd be having this conversation face-to-face.
[Bourne hangs up]
Dark Helmet: Careful you idiot! I said across her nose, not up it!
Cross eyed Laser Gunner: Sorry sir! I'm doing my best!
Dark Helmet: Who made that man a gunner?
Cross eyed Major A-hole: I did sir. He's my cousin.
Dark Helmet: Who is he?
Colonel Sandurz: He's an a-hole sir.
Dark Helmet: I know that! What's his name?
Colonel Sandurz: That is his name sir. A-hole, Major A-hole!
Dark Helmet: And his cousin?
Colonel Sandurz: He's an a -hole too sir. Gunner's mate First Class Philip A-hole!
Dark Helmet: How many a-holes do we have on this ship, anyway?
[Entire bridge crew stands up and raises a hand]
Entire Bridge Crew: Yo!
Dark Helmet: I knew it. I'm surrounded by a-holes!
[Dark Helmet pulls his face shield down]
Dark Helmet: Keep firing, a-holes!
This reminds me of a joke. This guy comes into a bar, walks up to the bartender. Says, "Bartender, I got me a bet for you. I'm gonna bet you $300 that I can piss into that glass over there and not spill a single, solitary drop." The bartender looks. I mean, we're talking, like, this glass is like a good ten feet away. He says, "Now wait, let me get this strait. You're tryin' to tell me you'll bet me $300 that you can piss, standing over here, way over there into that glass, and not spill a single drop?" Customer looks up and says, "That's right." Bartender says, "Young man, you got a bet." The guy goes, "Okay, here we go. Here we go." Pulls out his thing. He's lookin' at the glass, man. He's thinkin' about the glass. He's thinkin' about the glass. Glass. He's thinkin' about the glass, glass. Thinkin' about his dick. Dick, glass, dick, glass, dick, glass, dick, glass, dick, glass, dick, glass, dick, glass. And then, *foosh*, he lets it rip. And he-he's pisses all over the place, man. He's pissin' on the bar. He pissin' on the stools, on the floor, on the phone, on the bartender! He's pissing everywhere *except* the fething glass! Right? Okay. So, bartender, he's laughing his fuckin' ass off. He's $300 richer. He's like, "Ha, ha, ha, ha!" Piss dripping off his face. "Ha, ha, ha, ha!" He says, "You fething idiot, man! You got it in everything except the glass! You owe me $300 punta." Guy goes, "Excuse me just one-one little second." Goes in the back of the bar. In back, there's a couple of guys playing pool. He walks over to them. Comes back to the bar. Goes, "Here you go, Mr. Bartender, 300." And the bartender's like, "What the feth are you so happy about? You just lost $300, idiot!" The guy says, "Well, see those guys over there? I just bet them $500 a piece that I could piss on your bar, piss on your floor, piss on your phone, and piss on you, and not only would you not be mad about it, you'd be happy."
Are you gonna do something or just stand there and bleed? - Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) Tombstone
Billy Clanton: Why, it's the drunk piano player. You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'. In fact, you're probably seeing double.
[Billy Clanton draws a knife]
Doc Holliday: [takes out a second gun] I have two guns, one for each of ya. - Tombstone
I kick ass for the Lord - Father McGruder (Stuart Devenie) Braindead

Jules: [Jules shoots the man on the couch] I'm sorry, did I break your concentration? I didn't mean to do that. Please, continue, you were saying something about best intentions. What's the matter? Oh, you were finished! Well, allow me to retort. What does Marsellus Wallace look like?
Brett: What?
Jules: What country are you from?
Brett: What? What? Wh - ?
Jules: "What" ain't no country I've ever heard of. They speak English in What?
Brett: What?
Jules: English, melon-fether, do you speak it?
Brett: Yes! Yes!
Jules: Then you know what I'm sayin'!
Brett: Yes!
Jules: Describe what Marsellus Wallace looks like!
Brett: What?
Jules: Say 'what' again. Say 'what' again, I dare you, I double dare you melon-fether, say what one more Goddamn time!
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.
Ugh. I loved the crow but watched it WAY too much. At this point it is kind of a joke amongst my friends.
For example: It is not rare for one of us to say (because we live in the pacific northwest) "Well I guess it can rain all the time."
Anyways there are so many good quotes in that movie that have just been beaten to death:
"Not a good day to be a bad guy"
"This is the really real world. There ain't no coming back."
"Smokes and road beers"
"Caw caw bang f* I'm dead."
Jesus christ joke.
etc so on.
Off-topic: Actually reminds me of a discussion we were having about the soundtrack recently. Great freaking soundtrack (one of my all-time favorites) that has just been so overplayed for so many years that it has almost been ruined. Oh well.
"Who's Bill Murray? Man, that's like asking who Gandhi is."
"Who's Gandhi?"
"Never before have I been tempted to hit a little girl." - Zombieland
Gotta love that movie. I wish it had focused a bit more on the whole killing zombie aspect like the trailer hinted at, but it was a great movie nonetheless.
How to train your dragon was awesome. alot of the viking stuff was priceless.
And Avatar the Last Airbender the Cartoon Version's last episode which was a movie most of the lines were epic.
Rooster: 'Well...if you find a handy fence to rest it on in Indian country...'
The Alamo:
Tennessean#1: "Do this mean what I think it do?"
Tennaseean#2: "It do." (said a total of thre times. at the end, when they die as well)
The Alamo:
Boy: "C-A-N-T-I-N-A...whats that mean?"
Davy Crockett: "Cantina! you know what that means boys?"
PTC: Dead Man's Chest:
Jack: "so whats the plan?"
Will: "I row over, board her, and search the ship until I find your bloody key."
Jack: "And if there are crewmen?"
Will: "I cut down anyone in my path."
Jack: "Simple, easy to remember...I like it."
"Only two kinds of people are gonna stay on this beach: those that are already dead and those that are gonna die. Now get off your butts. You guys are the Fighting 29th." The longest day
“Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.” – Patton (1970)
"I have yet to thank you for looking out for me yesterday. That is your job, correct? Protecting me. Well done, Bob. You don't mind if I call you Bob, do ya? I knew a Bob once. God, he was as ugly as a mule. You a ladies man, Bob?"
The Last Samurai
Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
Since man is incapable of reconciling mind and matter, he tends to confer some sort of entity on ideas because he cannot bear the notion that the purely abstract only exists in our brain. The beauty and harmony of a snowflake, the butterfly that flutters its wings and causes a hurricane on the other side of the world. We've been hearing about that damn butterfly for decades but who has been able to predict a single hurricane? Nobody! Tell me something. Where is the beauty and harmony in cancer? What makes a cell suddenly decide to turn itself into a killer metastasis and destroy the rest of the cells in a healthy body? Does anybody know? No! Because we'd rather think of snowflakes and butterflies. Or Pain? War? So why? Because we need to think that life has meaning. That everything is governed by logic and not by mere chance. If I write 2, then 4, then 6, we feel good because we know that next comes 8. We can foresee it. We are not in the hands of destiny. Unfortunately however, this has nothing to do with truth. Don't you agree? This is only fear. Sad.
I don't Arthur Seldom, but you make a valid point about bad movie philosophy.
That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind
This is the single funniest line uttered by any actor ever.

How could I possibly have forgotten that?!!?!?!!!?!?
Not really a movie quote, but...
"they put us in fighting holes! behind sandbags! 'good cover and concealment' they said. Cover and concealment? When we were trying to draw Zack toward us? It was so fething Back-assward! all of it!" -Army Group North infantryman Todd Waino- World War Z
