"Your father was the captain of a Starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives. Including yours. I dare you to do better."

Has to be one of my favorites ever...not counting Robert Shaw's Indianapolis monologue from Jaws.

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur-king, you and all your silly English kaniggets. Thppppt!

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough whopper! I fart in your general direction! You mother was a hamster and your father smelt of eldeberries.

That quote is easy, DW. It's from the new Star Trek movie.

quote:

Bender: Claire, you wanna see a picture of a guy with elephantitis of the nuts? It's pretty tasty.

Claire: No thank you.

Bender: How does he ride a bike?

Bender: Oh Claire, would you ever consider dating a guy who looked like this?

Claire: Can't you just leave me alone?

Bender: I mean even if he had a nice personality and a cool car... although you'd probably have to ride in the backseat because his nuts would ride shotgun.

I've actually seen a picture of that in real life. Pretty freaky... It was for sale at an antiquarian/colelctable book fair in NYC. One of those things you jsut can't stop staring at.

I just mentioned the movie quote. It was memorable...if less than appropriate.

How about a different movie quote:

quote:

I can tell you the license numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you the waitress is left-handed. I can tell you the guy sitting at the bar weighs two-hundred-fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab of the gray truck outside, and I know that--at this altitude--I can run flat out for a half a mile before my hands start shaking. Now why would I know that? How can I know that and not know who I am?

-Jason Bourne (The Bourne Identity)

or

quote:

Gordie Boggs: Buenos nachos!

Sasha: I didn't know you spoke Spanish.

Gordie Boggs: Yeah, I took it in high school... a bunch of times.

Sasha: Are you fluent?

Gordie Boggs: No, I feel fine.

Ray: Gozer the Gozerian? Good evening. As a duly-designated representative of the City, County and State of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension.

Peter: That oughtta do it. Thanks very much, Ray.

Gozer: Are you a god?

Raymond: [hesitant] Uh...no.

Gozer: Then... di-i-i-i-e!

Winston Zeddmore: Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you're supposed to say "Yes!"

Prince Regent: Percy. Fashionably late, as usual.

Sir Percy: Sink me, your highness, it was this damned cravat. Simply refused to tie. I ask you. Sticking out like a pincushion.

I haven’t had any sleep, but I’m going to see how I do without cheating (after all, this is my forte):

Robert – “Frankly Scarlet, I don’t give a damn!”
Genevive42 – “Kaahhn!”
Unwritten
– “Dogs and Cats living together! Mass hysteria.”
– “Inconceivable!”
– You got me – is it “A Robinhood who can speak with a real British accent”?
Pyre Dynasty
- Ice Age – not sure which one
- “Do you want to know how I got these scars?”
- Kung-fu Panda?
- ?????????????????????
- “I’m so frightened I could squeal like a little girl.”

How’d I do, folks?

Sarge: Son, I think you may have lost it. O'Malley is not inside your head anymore! He infected the Doc!
Cabbose: No, I can feel him! I just need to get angry and say, mean, things, like Your, brain, is, a mountain, of hatred!
Sarge: I never thought I'd reach the moment in my life when I actually miss Grif...But here it is.
Caboose: Now, I, am, thinking, about... kittens! Guh, kit-tens, cov-ered in spikes! That makes, me, angry!

"I feel too good to war with mortals. Bring me giants!"

and

"As I end the refrain, thrust home!"

and

"I mock the manner of these canine courtesies and say thank Heaven, here comes another enemy."

These are all from the same place.

Dark Warrior, it's one of my favorite movie quotes because it applies so well to one of my own pet peeves (which I also refer to as COOL HAND LUKE moments).

And yes, it could apply here as well.

KDW i also love that movie, infact i just watched it 3 weeks ago. when i was on extra duty i always called the NCO IC, Boss. he never got it.

anyway...

Saigon... ****; I'm still only in Saigon... Every time I think I'm gonna wake up back in the jungle.

Charlie don't surf!

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like Victory

Apocalypse Now

I will never forget this day. The day I came to Hue City and fought one million N.V.A. gooks. I love the little Commie bastards, man, I really do. These enemy grunts are as hard as slant-eyed drill instructors. These are great days we're living, bros!'We are jolly green giants, walking the earth with guns. These people we wasted here today ... are the finest human beings we will ever know. After we rotate back to the world, we're gonna miss not having anyone around that's worth shooting.

Four of my favorites from the 80's:


"Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone?"

"Just a fly in the ointment, Hans. The monkey in the wrench. The pain in the ass."

#

"Screws fall out all the time, the world is an imperfect place."

What did you expect? "Welcome, sonny"? "Make yourself at home"? "Marry my daughter"? You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.

Philo,
Mine's from The Wizard of Oz, as the Wicked Witch is melting. I turned my kids onto it about a month ago, and it's been playing nonstop ever since. At this point, I'm willing to see them all "melt".

Based on the findings of the report, my conclusion was that this idea was not a practical deterrent for reasons which at this moment must be all too obvious.

So no one got the Cyrano lines? Too old of a reference or too obscure?

I'll have to come up with something else, when I'm not at work.

Of course I got Cyrano! But I prefer the play to the movie. I saw the play years ago with Stacey Keach as Cyrano. Unfortunately, it was almost ruined by casting Stephanie Powers as Roxanne. Yech!
