    Was actually thinking about this. The Op said name the best line in a movie bar none. It’s not a movie thread. It’s actually a line thread. If you don’t know the movie by the line, on that it’s not a greatest line for you.

    And you are hardly going to watch a movie based on one line.

    If it means so much to you google it, but if you don’t know it already is it that important to you?

    Common courtisy, if you can't do that I probably don't want to watch a movie with you anyway!

    "Lisa Belgetti: When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?

    Michael Delaney: Well, it better be.

    Lisa Belgetti: But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?

    Michael Delaney: Lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting."

    Always liked that quote.

    It is actually amazing the impact Crocodile Dundee had. The amount of phrases that are common parlance is crazy. Things like, that’s not a knife, that’s a knife or throw a shrimp on the Barbie, or even G’day mate is amazing. Before it tourism from US was non existent. After it Australia became one of the most visited destinations for US tourists.

    It is terrible it’s now considered sexist racist and homophobic but I think it’s still hilarious.

    Love this line

    ue Charlton: Is it dead? (asking about the crocodile with a knife in it's head)

    Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: Well, if it isn't, I'm gonna have a hell of a job skinning the b*stard.

    Jesus Chr1st, people are still choosing to drink Fosters 35 years later because of it.

    There was an argument that the end in scene in the could be interpreted as a feminist ending as the main actress goes “**** it I’m getting my man “takes off the heelA and powers on through To the subway

    It was a nice turn on the head instead of the man having to do the fighting /chasing.

    The music in the scene is exceptional and the two main characters had such an easy chemistry it is hard not caught up in it.

    Film stands the test of time and always will

    Quotes I like to use if I get a chance and I know people will get the reference

    "I live my life a quarter mile at a time" - The Fast and the Furious
    and the previously mentioned "We've got to get these people to a hospital....That's not important right now" from Airplane. Of course that needs to be adapted to whatever the person asks about.

    Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible ****... me.

    "Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't have ****ed with? That's me".

    Three from Sean Connery in The Untouchables

    "He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone."

    "Isn't that just like a wop ? Brings a knife to a gunfight." And finally

    "What's the matter, can't talk with a gun in your mouth ?"

    Strikes me that they are not actually great lines on a standalone basis, but in the context of the scenes they're from, they work brilliantly.

    Rambo 3

    One of the most underrated lines of all time. Rambo and Colonel Trautmen are being surrounded by the jerk russian spetnaz commander and his soliders. Trautmen says to Rambo: "what do we do John?"

    Then Rambo loads a grenade into his grenade launcher and says "**** em"

    Brilliant :pac:
