Land of Poutine!
Admit it, there's a character somewhere, in some movie you love to quote.
There's the famous lines we all quote, and then there's a few we quote for our own enjoyment.
And not to forget, the few we use in a particular setting / discussion / moment.

yours?


We have to get these people to the hospital!
The hospital!! What is it?
It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now..
 
Its not that I condone fascism or any ism for that matter. Isms in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an ism he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon: “I don’t believe in the Beatles I believe in me.”
 
Either ....

"You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" - Micheal Caine in The Itailian Job

or

"When you're younger you can eat what you like, drink what you like, and still climb into your 26-inch waist trousers and zip them closed. Then you reach that age, 24, 25, your muscles give up, they wave a little white flag, and without any warning at all you're suddenly a fat *******." - Rimmer, Red Dwarf. (not really a movie, as such, but its such a true quote)
 
"You can't fight in here! This is the war room" (or something rather similar)

Dr. Strangelove

G.
 
"...when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor, did we give up?...."

John 'Bluto' Blutarsky
Animal House
 
"Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and f*** the prom queen."
 
"No time for the old in-out in-out luv, I've only come to read the meters."

Alex after recovery, Clockwork Orange
 
One of my favorites from The Hunt for Red October:

Seaman: Captain, they're really shooting at us. Why?
Sam Neill as Cmdr. Vasili Borodin: Easy boy. If they were really shooting at us, we'd be dead by now.

Jason
 
"And in the morning, I'm gonna make WAFFLES!"

or...

"Do you think maybe he's compensating for something?" (have used this one at a couple of launches)
 
Independence Day....

"Why wasn't I advised of this? [Area 51]

"Two words Mr. President; Plausable Deniability."
 
Full Metal Jacket

Basically everything out of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman's mouth is a classic movie line that I like to quote.

Most of which are far too distasteful to repeat here....
 
Actually, many of my favorite quotes come from TV (either Babylon 5 or Whose Line Is It Anyway?).

For example:

"What do you want, you moon-faced assassin of joy?"

"I'm not even suppposed to be here today!"
-Dante, Clerks

"Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin!
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin!

He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp,
Or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken;
To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away;
And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin!

His head smashed in and his heart cut out
And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged
And his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off
And his pen--"
-Sir Robin's Minstrels, Monty Python and the Holy Grail
 
Anything Monty Python!
"What have the Romans ever done for us?"
(diff people) "education", "public health", "the aquaduct", "the roads"...

Leslie Nielson is a hoot!

McCroskey: "Jacobs, I want to know absolutely everything that's happened up 'till now. "
Jacobs: "Well, let's see: First the earth cooled. And, then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died, and they turned into oil. And, then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And, Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it, he took her best summer dress out of the closet, and put it on, and went to town."


"There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?"

"Joey - do you like movies about gladiators?"
 
Radio Shack, you've got questions, we've got blank stares...and cellphones...anon.
 
I'm going to have to spend some time calling them up from the cob webs, but the *first* one that came to mind:

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

sends chills up and down my spine every time I hear that
