Favorite quotable movies & favorite quotes

[TheCockSportif]

I searched a little bit back here, and I couldn't find a thread (unless it happened many, many pages ago) about favorite quotable movies and favorite quotes.  I saw Kent (Real Genius) in the "punchable faces" thread, and that got me to thinking.

 

So many movies aren't good in the technical nor cinematic sense of that art form.  And yet they're wildly entertaining, regularly watched, stand the test of time, and are infinitely quotable.

 

Here are a few of mine.  What are yours?

 

Real Genius, 1985

- So I guess it goes from God, to Jerry, to you... to the cleaners.  Right, Kent?

- Ice is nice!

- What's that?  A penis stretcher.  I file it under "H" for toys.

- Aren't you the one who designed the satellite that's raining debris all over Europe?

- Why are you just standing there?  You're laborers.  You should be laboring.  That's what you get for not having an education.

- Your mother sews license plates into your underpants?  How do you sit?

- Kent, stop touching yourself!  - IT *IS* GOD! -

 

Better Off Dead (1985?  1986?)

- Man, that's a real shame when folks be throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that.

- This is pure snow.  Do you know what the street value of this mountain is?

- The K-12, dude.  You make a gnarly run like that, and girls will go sterile just looking at you.

- I think you mean tentacles.  Tentacles.  There's a big difference.

- Gee, Ricky.  I'm sorry that your mom blew up.  Guess it'll be a while before she can eat spicy food.

- French fries.  French dressing.  And to drink?  Peru.

 

Top Gun

(too many to list)

 

Die Hard

can’t recall what movie I saw it in— some fighting action flick set in LA, I think.

I admit that I just belly laughed over this; well done.  Fight Club, ne the Oscars, right?

So true.  And read something a few years ago that John Cusack hated the "cut" of the film.  I can't imagine that another cut would be high art.  What did he think he was appearing in?  Faust?

I saw somebody make a joke online that went something like …..  “Apparently the only thing off limits in Will and Jada’s open relationship are jokes.” -Norm MacDonald’s ghost.

 

The hit to Smith’s reputation can’t be understated.  It would be like Tom Hanks slapping Steve Martin.

Airplane! So many too list. "Do you like gladiator movies" is one of my favorites as is; A hat, a broach or a pterodactyl, 

 

Animal House "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor"

The Godfather: "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."

I watched the movie "The Witches of Eastwick" recently and this is a quote of Chers directed at the despicable character in this movie played by Jack Nicholson. BOOM hahahahaaa

Quote

 

I think-no, I am positive-that you are the most unattractive man I have ever met in my entire life. You know, in the short time we’ve been together you have demonstrated every loathsome characteristic of the male personality and even discovered a few new ones. You are physically repulsive, intellectually ######ed, you’re morally reprehensible, vulgar, insensitive, selfish, stupid, you have no taste, a lousy sense of humor, and you smell. You’re not even interesting enough to make me sick.

Stripes:

"We're Americans, with a capital 'A', huh? You know what that means? Do ya? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We're the underdog. We're mutts!"

 

and...

"Lighten up, Francis."

I have a habit of incorporating movie lines into my everyday life. Sometimes it drives my wife crazy - other times she's been known to quote my frequently used lines. 

 

Pulp Fiction: Hamburgers! The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast.

 

Vacation: I don't know why they call this stuff hamburger helper. It does just fine by itself, huh? 

 

Animal House: Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son

[BuffaloBill]

Apocalypse Now:

 

”I love the smell of napalm in the morning”

So true, and on both counts.  Airplane was a classic, as was Animal House.  Awesome response!

True sentiment, for real(z).  Awesome quotes and references, too!

This, like Die Hard, has become a family classic at the holidays.  I hated it on first screening, but I started loving it about 20 years ago.

I think that we owe a big round of applause to our newest, bestest buddy, and big toe... Sergeant Hulka.

I often use Senator Blutarsky as an alternative screen name. It's hilarious that Mr 0.0 becomes a US Senator!

I know what you're thinking:
"Did he fire six shots or only five?"
Well, to tell you the truth, in all this
excitement I kind of lost track myself.
But being this is a .44 Magnum, the
most powerful handgun in the world...
and would blow your head clean off...
you've got to ask yourself
one question: "Do I feel lucky?"
Well, do you, punk?

==========================

Lousy peeping Tom.
You getting an eyeful?
You goddamn pie hawker!

===========================

What's in the bag, man?
- You dudes get lost now, you hear?

============================

My friends call me Alice.
And I will take a dare.

- Well, Alice, when was the last time
you were busted?
If you're a vice, I'll kill myself.

 - Well, do it at home.

=============================

Don't pass out on me yet,
you rotten oinker!
