There are rules.

Is this your homework, Larry?

We know it's his f_______g homework, Walter, where's the f________g money, you little brat?

You see what happens, Larry?!

Uh sir, I just want to say, uh, that we're both -- on a personal level, really enormous fans. Branded, especially the earlier episodes, was truly a source of inspiration.

Is he...does he still write?
Oh no, he have healt' problems!

Nothing is fucked here, Dude. Come on, you're being very un-Dude.

You're just an a---hole.

Dude, at least it's an ethos.

He fixes the cable?

Dude.

Huh?

I don’t know, sir.

Is it…is it, being prepared to do the right thing? Whatever the price? Isn’t that what makes a man?

That, and a pair of testicles

What's Shabbos?

AKA Jimmy Dale Gilmore.

followed by "Blazing Saddles" and "Casablanca"

:hi:
OZ quotes:
Scarecrow: "Of course, some people do go both ways."
Cowardly Lion: "I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do!"
Dorothy: "Lions and tigers and bears! Oh, my!"

B.Z. quotes:
Jim: "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."
Lyle: "Come on, boys! The way you're lollygaggin' around here with them picks and them shovels, you'd think it was a hundert an' twenty degree. Can't be more than a hundert an' fourteen."Governor William J. Le Petomane: "We've gotta protect our phoney baloney jobs, gentlemen!"

Captain Renault: "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!"
Rick: "Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine."
Captain Renault: "Round up the usual suspects."
Rick: "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

and they were taking her touring around..well, they would say things like "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas any more"
"Follow the Yellow Brick Road"
"I'll get you and your little dog too"
"Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my"
"What a World, What a World: I'M Melting"
"Auntie Em, Auntie Em"
"Off to see the Wizard"


etc

well young lady from Germany would ask what it meant, and the answer was always "That's from Wizard of Oz..." she had never seen it.


So they had to show it to her when they got back home, then she understood.

I'd have to go with Army of Darkness...but close ones, Back to the Future, Spaceballs, Blazing Saddles, History of the World part I...

If I had to pick from your list though, it'd be a tie between Monty Pythons Holy Grail, and the Big Lebowski....

Army of Darkness...i wasn't sure if the base was broad enough to support it's inclusion.

I think the base is broad enough.

Wait, is that sexist?

The Good, the Bad...I'm the guy with the gun...

Ma'am, I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave the store....

Its a trick, get an axe....

As for Back to the Future...ha, my best friend and I, know that movie like the back of our hand....:)

:shrug:

Dana Barrett: Do you want this body?
Dr. Peter Venkman: Is this a trick question?

http://imdb.com/title/tt0087332/quotes

:o

:D

yah...

That gif... :rofl:

"Yah." :rofl:

I answered the darned... I'm cooperatin' here!

What?

We stop at pancakes house.

What are ya nuts? We had pancakes for breakfast. I want to go somewhere I can get a shot and a beer, and a steak, maybe. No more f----g pancakes, c'mon man. C'mon man! Okay here's an idea. We'll stop outside of Brainerd. I know a place there we can get laid. What do ya think?

I'm f------g hungry now, you know!


Yeah, yeah. Jesus. I was just saying we could stop, get pancakes, and get laid.

"Total fuckin' silence."

who couldn't afford personalized plates so he went and changed his name to J3L2404?"

"Yah, that's a good one."


:P

...so I made that assumption."

Holy Grail has more good quotes than any five of the other choices.

OK, I can see that...

Even though I think Gibson is now certifiable there were still some great lines in those movies.

Especially Joe Pesci's rants like they F you at the drive through!

Or Rigg's: "I'm surprised you haven't heard about me, sometimes I just go nuts like now!

Murtaugh: "I'm too old for this shit!"

Riggs: "Did you tell him about the nail gun incident!"

Some other movies that my friends like to quote a lot:

Airplane
Blazing Saddles
Spinal Tap
Beerfest
Super Troopers
Ferris Bueller

We're going to need you to come into work on Saturday, about 9:00....and while we're at it, why don't you come in on Sunday, too? Okay?

"It was a "Jump to Conclusions" mat. You see, it would be this mat that you would put on the floor... and would have different CONCLUSIONS written on it that you could JUMP TO."


"That's the worst idea I've ever heard in my life, Tom."


"Yes, this is horrible, this idea."

"Yeah, well at least your name isn't Michael Bolton."

"You know there's nothing wrong with that name."

"There was nothing wrong with it... until I was about 12 years old and that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys."

"Hmm... well why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?"

"No way. Why should I change? He's the one who sucks."

"I celebrate his entire catalog!"

I would say add it to the poll, but then your list would have to go to eleven choices.
And it doesn't go to eleven...

...and your observation = definitely on the clever side. ;) :hi:

:rofl:

"I always tell the truth. Even when I lie, I tell the truth".

I gotta go Caddyshack. Almost every line in that movie is quotable.

"...and you guys: take more lessons!" :rofl:

"Na na na na na na na."

"Just because the best tailoring you've ever seen is above your fucking appendix doesn't mean anything!"

"The joint I am about to roll requires a craftsman. It can utilize up to twelve skins. It is called a Camberwell Carrot."

"If I medicined you, you'd think a brain tumor was a birthday present."

And so on.

I can't believe it. I'll vote for it 'cuz it has to have at least one vote.

My friends and i use about 8 lines from that movie.
The Professor

Bogart and Bacall, and she was just 19. She played Slim, he played Steve.

Slim: "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."

Slim: "Give her my love."
Steve: "I'd give her my own if she had that on!"

(Slim kisses Steve)
Steve: What did you do that for?
Slim: I've been wondering if I'd like it.
Steve: What's the decision?
Slim: I don't know yet.
(They kiss again)
Slim: It's even better when you help.

Slim: I'm hard to get, Steve. All you have to do is ask me.

Eddie: Was you ever bit by a dead bee?

Some of the best quotes in movie history.

We're on an express elevator to hell - going down.

that's it man, game over, game over.

they mostly come out at night... mostly.

Hudson: Hey Vasquez, you ever been mistaken for a man?
Vasquez: No, have you?

Sgt: It's hot as hell in here
Hudson: Yeah man, but it's a dry heat

They can bill me

Get your hands off of her, you bitch.

say we're at a restuarant, going over the check: "So, let's see, that'll be $19.95 altogether..."

IN UNISON: "That'll be $19.95!"

edit: spelling

:rofl:

That's impossible! They're on instruments!

(Cut to a shot of the flight crew playing musical instruments)

Or smoking, or sniffing glue...

Hands down.

:o

How soon we forget.





"Who are you?"

"I'm fine, thanks, who are you?"

"I'm fine too, but you can't come in unless you give the password."

"Well, what is the password?"

"Aw, no. You gotta tell me. Hey, I tell what I do. I give you three guesses. It's the name of a fish."

"Is it Mary?"

"Ha ha. 'At'sa no fish."

"She isn't? Well, she drinks like one. Let me see — Is it 'sturgeon'?"

"Hey, you crazy. Sturgeon, he's a doctor cuts you open when-a you sick. Now I give you one more chance."

"I got it. Haddock."

"'At'sa funny. I gotta haddock, too."

"What do you take for a haddock?"

"Well, sometimes I take-a aspirin, sometimes I take-a Calamel."

"Say, I'd walk a mile for a Calamel."

"You mean chocolate calamel. I like that too, but you no guess it. Hey, what'sa matter, you no understand English? You can't come in here unless you say 'swordfish.' Now I'll give you one more guess."

"Swordfish, swordfish... I think I got it. Is it 'swordfish'?"

"Ha! 'At'sa it! You guess it!"

"Pretty good, eh?"

:D

"Bitte baby!"

My favorite: In the dungeon, to her sons, Queen Eleanor says, "Oh, dear. Whatever shall we do with Mummy?"
Eleanor: In a world where carpenters get resurrected, everything is possible.
Henry II: Now see here, boy...
Philip II: I am a king - I am no man's "boy"!
Henry II: A king? Because you put your ass on purple cushions?

Eleanor: My, what a lovely girl. How could her king have left her?
Eleanor: You don't dare go!
Henry II: Say that again at noon, you'll say it to my horse's ass! Lamb, I'll be rid of you by Easter: you can count your reign in days!
Prince John: Poor John. Who says poor John? Don't everybody sob at once! My God, if I went up in flames there's not a living soul who'd pee on me to put the fire out!
Prince Richard: Let's strike a flint and see.
Henry II: The sky is pocked with stars. What eyes the wise men must have had to see a new one in so many.

Prince Geoffrey: If you're a prince, there's hope for every ape in Africa.
Eleanor: I even made poor Louis take me on Crusade. How's that for blasphemy. I dressed my maids as Amazons and rode bare-breasted halfway to Damascus. Louis had a seizure and I damn near died of windburn... but the troops were dazzled.
Henry II: I marvel at you after all these years. Still like a democratic drawbridge: going down for everybody.
Eleanor: At my age there's not much traffic anymore.
Henry II: Oh God, but I do love being king!
Henry II: My life, when it is written, will read better than it lived. Henry Fitz-Empress, first Plantagenet, a king at twenty-one, the ablest soldier of an able time. He led men well, he cared for justice when he could and ruled, for thirty years, a state as great as Charlemagne's. He married out of love, a woman out of legend. Not in Alexandria, or Rome, or Camelot has there been such a queen. She bore him many children. But no sons. King Henry had no sons. He had three whiskered things but he disowned them
Henry II: You're not mine! We're not connected! I deny you! None of you will get my crown, I leave you nothing and I wish you plague! May all your children breach and die!
Henry II: My Boys are gone
Henry II: I've lost my boys
Henry II: You dare to damn me, do You? Well, I damn you back
Henry II: GODDAMN YOU!
Henry II: My boys are gone. I've lost my boys. Oh, Jesus, all my boys...

Eleanor: You look fit. War agrees with you. I keep informed; I follow all your slaughters from a distance. Do sit down.
Prince Richard: Is this an audience... a good night hug with kisses... or an ambush?
Eleanor: Let's hope it's a reunion.
Henry II: I want to reach a settlement. I left you with too little earlier,
Philip II: Yes, nothing is too little.
Eleanor: Out Eleanor... in Alais. Why?
Henry II: A new wife, wife, will bear me sons.
Eleanor: That is the single thing of which I would have thought you had enough.
Henry II: What we do in dungeons needs the shades of day. I stole the candles from the chapel. Jesus won't begrudge them and the chaplain works for me.
Henry II: We're in the cellar and you're going back to prison and my life is wasted and we've lost each other... and you're smiling.
Eleanor: It's the way I register despair. There's everything in life but hope.
Henry II: We're both alive... and for all I know that's what hope is.
Henry II: We're off to Rome to see the Pope.
Princess Alais: He's excommunicated you again.
Henry II: When I bellow, bellow back.
Henry II: When the king is off his ass, nobody sleeps!
Henry II: Where's a priest? Somebody fetch me a priest! YOU! Fetch me a bishop!
Prince Richard: You're so deceitful you can't ask for water when you're thirsty. We could tangle spiders in the webs you weave.
Princess Alais: Kings, queens, knights everywhere you look and I'm the only pawn. I haven't got a thing to lose - that makes me dangerous.
Henry II: I've snapped and plotted all my life. There's no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once.
Henry II: I found out the way your mind works and the kind of man you are. I know your plans and expectations - you've burbled every bit of strategy you've got. I know exactly what you will do, and exactly what you won't, and I've told you exactly nothing. To these aged eyes, boy, that's what winning looks like!
Henry II: I'm villifying you for God's sake - pay attention!
Eleanor: And when you die, which is regrettable but necessary, what will happen to frail Alais and her pruny prince? You can't think Richard's going to wait for your grotesque to grow.
Henry II: You wouldn't let him do a thing like that.
Eleanor: Let him? I'd push him through the nursery door.
Henry II: You're not that cruel.
Eleanor: Don't fret. We'll wait until you're dead to do it.
Henry II: Eleanor, what do you want?
Eleanor: Just what you want, a king for a son. You can make more, I can't. You think I want to disappear? One son is all I've got, and you can blot him out and call me cruel? For these ten years you've lived with everything I've lost, and loved another woman through it all, and I am cruel? I could peel you like a pear and God himself would call it justice!
Henry II: Well I'm off.
Eleanor: To Rome?
Henry II: That's where they keep the Pope!
Eleanor: What would you have me do? Give out? Give up? Give in?
Henry II: Give me a little peace.
Eleanor: A little? Why so modest? How about eternal peace? Now there's a thought.
Henry II: I haven't kept the Great Bitch in the keep for ten years out of passionate attachment.
Eleanor: Well, that's the way deals are made. We've got him if we want him. He'll sell us all, you know... but only if he thinks we think he won't.
Eleanor: I'd hang you from the nipples, but you'd shock the children.
Henry II: The Vexin's mine.
Philip II: By what authority?
Henry II: It's got my troops all over it; that makes it mine.
Henry II: The day those stout hearts band together is the day that pigs get wings.
Eleanor: There'll be pork in the treetops come morning.
Eleanor: Henry's bed is Henry's province, he can people it with sheep for all I care... which on occasion he has done.
Prince Richard: So! The royal corkscrew finds ME twisted?
Prince John: A knife! He's got a knife!
Eleanor: Of course he has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It's 1183 and we're barbarians! How clear we make it. Oh, my piglets, we are the origins of war: not history's forces, nor the times, nor justice, nor the lack of it, nor causes, nor religions, nor ideas, nor kinds of government, nor any other thing. We are the killers. We breed wars. We carry it like syphilis inside. Dead bodies rot in field and stream because the living ones are rotten. For the love of God, can't we love one another just a little - that's how peace begins. We have so much to love each other for. We have such possibilities, my children. We could change the world.
Eleanor: You're not an assassin.
Prince Richard: Look again.
Henry II: More Brandy wine? They were boiling it in Ireland before the snakes left!
Eleanor: What family doesn't have its ups and downs?
Prince Geoffrey: I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it.

Prince Geoffrey: We're a knowledgeable family.
Henry II: I'm 50 now. Good God, boy, I'm the oldest man I know! I've got a decade on the pope!
Prince Richard: I never heard a corpse complain of how it got so cold.
Eleanor: How dear of you to let me out of prison.
Henry II: It's only for the holidays.
Henry II: I want no women in my life.
Princess Alais: You're tired.
Henry II: I could have conquered Europe - all of it - but I had women in my life.
Prince John: You stink. You're a stinker and you stink.
Eleanor: Henry
Henry II: Madam
Eleanor: Did you ever love me?
Henry II: No
Eleanor: Good. That will make this pleasanter.
Eleanor: And that's to be the king.
Prince Geoffrey: And I'm to be his Chancellor. Has he told you? John will rule the country, while I run it. That is to say he gets to spend the taxes that I raise.
Eleanor: How nice for you.
Prince Geoffrey: It's not as nice as being king.
Henry II: We've made you Duke of Brittany, is that so little?
Prince Geoffrey: No one ever thinks of crown and mentions Geoff, why is that?
Henry II: Isn't being chancellor power enough?
Prince Geoffrey: It's not the power I feel deprived of; it's the mention I miss. There's no affection for me here; you wouldn't think I'd want that, would you.
Prince Geoffrey:
Eleanor: Henry?
Henry II: Hmmm?
Eleanor: I have a confession.
Henry II: Yes?
Eleanor: I don't much like our children!

Henry II: HA! What shall we hang... the holly, or each other?
Philip II: "What If" is a game for scholars.
Eleanor: He had a mind like Aristotle and a form like mortal sin.
Prince Richard: He's here. He'll get no satisfaction out of me. He isn't going to see me beg.
Prince Geoffrey: My you chivalric fool... as if the way one fell down mattered.
Prince Richard: When the fall is all there is, it matters.
Henry II: Who's to say it's monstrous? I'm the King. I call it just. Therefore, I, Henry, by the Grace of God King of the English, Lord of Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, Count of Anjou, Brittany, Poitou and Normandy, Maine, Gascony, and Acquitaine, do sentence you to death. Done this Christmas Day in Chinon in God's year eleven eighty-three.
Eleanor: I wonder... do you ever wonder... if I slept with your father.
Eleanor: If you're broken it's because you're brittle... I've lost you, and I can't ever have you back.
Henry II: My finest angle. It's on all the coins.

Henry II: Come for me!

Henry II: I hope we never die.
Eleanor: So do I.
Henry II: Do you think there's any chance of it?
Prince John: I thought I'd come and gloat a little.
Eleanor: Mother's tired. Come stick pins tomorrow morning; I'll be more responsive.
Prince John: It's no fun goading anyone tonight.
Eleanor: I adored you. I still do.
Henry II: Of all the lies you've told, that is the most terrible.
Eleanor: I know. That's why I've saved it up until now.
Henry II: It's heavy... Oh Eleanor, you've brought me my tombstone! You spoil me!
Eleanor: Hush dear, mother's fighting.
Eleanor: You'll make a lovely bride, I wonder if I'll cry.
Prince Richard: I am a constant soldier, a sometimes poet and I will be king.
Prince Richard: I will have the crown
Henry II: You will have what Daddy gives you.
Prince Richard: I am next in line!
Henry II: To nothing!

I tried copying, but no go.
worthy.

I mentioned it, too.

Great minds...:hi:

"Jimmy, have you ever seen a grown man naked?"

:evilgrin:

"Realizing the seriousness of the situation, I've rounded up.. twice.. the number of usual suspects."

"I came to Casablanca for the waters".."The waters?, we're in the desert".."I was misinformed."

"What nationality are you Mr. Blaine?".. "I'm a drunkard".."That makes Mr. Rick a citizen of the world."

"You despise me don't you Rick".."Well if I paid you any mind I suppose I would."

n/t

I have many a friend in Casablanca, but somehow, just because you despise me, you are the only one I trust."

"As the leader of all illegal activities in Casablanca, I am an influential and respected man."

One of the most intelligent, biting screen plays ever written, acted to perfection by Bette Davis, et al.

"Fasten your seatbelts---it's going to be a bumpy night!"

so all the quotes nerds do at cons completely go over my head

Much will become clear. :D

Probably don't go an hour when my friends are all together without at least one Lebowski quote.

Also the version they run on Comedy Central almost deserves a special separate mention. It is so much different that it becomes quotable. "This is what happens when you flip a stranger in the Alps."

"Surely you can't be joking."

"I'm not joking and don't call me Shirley."

:rolf:

I thought of Airplane too.

And then, The Naked Gun.

"Yeah, well, that may be. But at least I never slept with Lumbergh."

"Well, you don't need a million dollars to do nothing man. Take a look at my cousin. He's broke, don't do shit."

".... and I could see the squirrels and they were married ..."

People seem to like me because I am polite and am very rarely late.

"I make him an offer he don't refuse"
"Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes"
"Leave the gun, take the cannoli"

I say that almost every day at work. :D

Airplane and The Producers (the original film) are good ones also.

"My blanket! My blue blanket!"

"The desert is three weeks in every direction." (That's true)

"I'm making this up as I go along."

"It's not the years; it's the mileage."

Uh. Pretty much sums up my life.

but you have to be willing to drop the F bomb
