Favorite movie lines *fun post*


Recommended Posts

I was just watching sister act 1 and 2 with the kids today. Once of my favorite movie lines was in sister act 1.

 

Rev. Mother is talking to the priest about Dolores staying in the convent.

 

Priest "You have taken a vow of hospitality"

Rev. Mother "I lied"

 

That line is delivered so dead and serious that combined with the nun's habit I find it hilarious.

 

So what are some of your favorite movie lines?

We've been doing a lot of Napoleon Dynamite lately. Pretty much the whole Rex Kwan Do scene is a favorite, and the chicken farmer. "Do chickens have large talons?" "Hope you don't mind I pay you in change." "Six dollars. That's like a dollar an hour!"

 

Hmmm. They sound so much funnier than they read. ;) My kids are awesome with the voices!

"Me? I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of what I saw, I'm scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you."

 

:thumbup: I love that movie. It has lots of great lines.

I have several favorites!

 

From Robin Hood Prince of Thieves:

 

"This is grain, which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more divine means of consumption. Let us give praise to our maker and glory to his bounty by learning about… beer!"

 

From My Big Fat Greek Wedding:

 

“You’ve got a weird family. Who doesn’t?â€

 

From Cars:

 

"Well, the road didn’t cut through the land like that Interstate. It moved with the land, it rose, it fell, it curved. Cars didn’t drive on it to make great time. They drove on it to have a great time."

 

From Apollo 13:

 

“I can’t deal with cleaning up. Let’s sell the house.â€

 

From White Christmas:

 

“Go to Smith? She couldn’t even spell it!â€

 

From The King's Speech:

 

Lionel Logue: "Would I lie to a prince of the realm to win twelve pennies?"

King George VI: "I have no idea what an Australian might do for that sort of money."

"Over? Nothing is over until we say it's over... Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

 

"Germans?"

 

"Forget it, he's on a roll..."

 

and

 

"There are some decaffeinated brands on the market that are just as tasty as the original."

 

"Kent puts his name on his license plate."

"My mother does the same with my underwear."

"Your mother puts license plates in your underwear? How do you sit?"

 

and

 

"Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get."

"I don't want to kill you, and you don't want to be dead!"

Danny Glover's character in Silverado, the only western I like.

 

 

 

"As you wish."

"Have fun storming the castle."

"It would take a miracle."

"Yes, you're very smart. Now shut up."

And, well, most of TPB.

 

 

"Baseball is a simple game. You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball." and later:

"You lollygag in the outfield. You lollygag in the infield. Know what that makes you? A bunch of lollygaggers."

Bull Durham

 

 

"Do the laws of physics cease to exist in your kitchen?"

 

"Yeah, you blend."

My Cousin Vinny

Best.movie.ever.

"He says he's not dead."

 

"How do you know she is a witch?" "She looks like one."

"Brother Maynard! Bring out the Holy Hand Grenade!"

 

"In the frozen land of Nador they were forced to eat Sir Robin's minstrels. And there was much rejoicing." "yaaaaay" :lol: :lol: :lol:

Elwood P. Dowd: Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.

 

Harvey (My favorite movie of all time.)

 

I've quoted that line here before, lol! Sometimes I choose to be pleasant, sometimes I choose to be oh-so-smart. It's so hard for me to be oh-so-pleasant sometimes. I consider it a personal failing.

"I don't know how to put this... but I'm kind of a big deal. People know me. I have many leather bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany..."

 

"I will smash your face into a car windshield and take your mother, Dorothy Mantooth, out for a nice seafood dinner and NEVER call her again!"

 

And pretty much the rest of Anchorman.

The two I say most often:

 

"Ow, my giant blue head" - whenever I hurt myself

and

"There's no crying in baseball." - whenever someone looks like they might want to whine or cry

 

Dh wouldn't speak at all if he couldn't quote movie lines - Blues Brothers, National Lampoon's Christmas and Family vacation, What About Bob?, Stripes, Star Wars movies, Airplane, Forest Gump, old Weterns, etc. - and old Looney Tunes cartoons. :glare:

"They stole my rug! It really pulled the room together."

 

I love that movie! They have so many great lines!

 

"Brother Maynard! Bring out the Holy Hand Grenade!"

 

"In the frozen land of Nador they were forced to eat Sir Robin's minstrels. And there was much rejoicing." "yaaaaay" :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Monty Python's Holy Grail. The whole bit with Michael Palin as the peasant when King Arthur approaches him just cracks me up! :lol:

 

Me too! Patsy with the coconuts! :p The Knights who say "Nee" and of course John Cleese as the Black Knight "it's just a flesh wound." :lol: :lol: :lol: That movie is so funny.

 

I knew I liked you! Those are two of my favorite movies! I gave my son an A+ on a writing assignment mostly because he properly quoted Monty Python.

 

I quote Napoleon Dynamite all the time.

 

My sister runs track. I always call her before a meet and tell her "Run Kelci, ruuuunnnnn!"

Whenever anybody in our family is about to undertake something difficult or potentially hazardous, we feel compelled to announce, "We're doing the Pamchenko!" ( But I don't have The Cutting Edge practically memorized, or anything. Nope. Not me. Because that would be pathetic.)

"It's a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes."

 

"Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."

 

"i don't feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom. Just my enemies."

 

ETA: Can't believe I forgot the one I actually use on the kids:

"I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart. You broke my heart."

Ok, these brought back so many memories!

 

"That is so 5 minutes ago.." has been used so long by me that I almost forgot where it came from. It is just part our speech.

 

"There's no crying in baseball." I say it to the girls when they are whiny still. They think I am weird.

 

"Nobody puts Baby in a corner." Because it is just so ridiculously corny.

 

I am sure there are others. But these are in daily speech around here. And if you want to know about favorite T.V. quotes, all I can say is it is all Seinfeld all the time around here. Dh can quote 'em all :)

Mrs. White:I dont want a scandal, do I? We had had a very humiliating public confrontation. He was deranged. He was [points to head] a lunatic! He didn't actually seem to like me very much; he had threatened to kill me in public.

Miss Scarlet: Why would he wanna kill you in public?

Wadsworth: I think she meant he threatened, in public, to kill her.

 

And pretty much the rest of that movie.

 

Ringo: What was it that first attracted you to me?

John: Well you're very polite now, aren't you?

 

Professor Foot: MIT was after me you know; wanted me to rule the world for them.

 

 

Superintendent: Good lord, it's Rajah, the famous Bengal man-eater who escaped from London Zoo this morning.

John: Good Lord! So it famous is!

Superintendent: Oh, don't worry, he's absolutely harmless. All you have to do is sing Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" from the famous Ninth Symphony in D minor.

John: Of course! Why didn't you think of that you twit!

 

Ringo: I don't subscribe to your religion

 

And pretty much the rest of that movie.

"Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."

 

LOL I say this all.the.time. I said it to dh just the day before yesterday! :lol::lol::lol:

 

"I know it was you Fredo. You broke my heart." I say that one all the time too.

 

When I put the kids to bed I say, "Good night. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning." :p

 

And when my dd goes to do her jogging I tell her, "Keep off the moors." :lol:

"I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem may have been that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being crushed by a dwarf. All right? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object."

- David St. Hubbins, This Is Spinal Tap

 

"The details of my life are quite inconsequential ... Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize; he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament ... My childhood was typical: summers in Rangoon ... luge lessons ... In the spring, we'd make meat helmets ... When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds — pretty standard, really. At the age of 12, I received my first scribe. At the age of 14, a Zoroastrian named Vilmer ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum — it's breathtaking ... I suggest you try it."

- Dr. Evil, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery

 

"What one man can do, another can do." - Charles Morse, The Edge

 

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

- Paul Atreides, Dune

 

Dave Bowman: "Open the pod bay doors, HAL."

HAL 9000: "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."

- 2001: A Space Odyssey

 

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. [typewritten]" - Jack Torrance, The Shining

 

"Mr. White? We need to talk." - James Bond, Casino Royale

 

"You have the power to make anything happen... but you must act now." - Dr. Daniel P. Schreber, Dark City

Silverado! Love it. We named our son Paden. Also from Silverado...

"Hide and watch" "That's what I said!!" "I had a woman do that to me, didn't make her my wife."

 

Too many from Lonesome Dove to count. Anything from TPB. The whole script of Oh Brother. My kids quote that for 10 minutes and longer. Holy Grail.

 

From Hot Fuzz- Nobody tells me nothing. And... "SWAN!!!"
