Favourate line from a film?

mrblue · 09-05-2001 3:19pm #1

There are some classics. From Hollywood one-liners like "Let's open up a can of whoopas" to meaningful soliloquys - "get busy living, or get busy dying".

For some reason I have this rattling around my skull-

"GET ME DILLINGER!!!"

Can you name the film?

azezil · 09-05-2001 5:07pm

"i love the smell of napalm in the morning"

or from duke nukem (i'm aware its not a film)
"its time to kick ass n chew bubblegum, and i'm all outta gum"

"just because ur not paraniod, doesn't mean they're not after u!"

TwoShedsJackson · 09-05-2001 5:14pm

That 'kick ass and chew bubblegum' line is actually in They Live, the 1986 John Carpenter film starring Rowdie Roddie Piper.

Whoever did Duke Nukem ripped it off.

Yossarian · 09-05-2001 5:35pm

its also used in Escape from New York, or a variation of it..

mrblue · 09-05-2001 5:41pm

Most cheesy line ever:

"I feel the need, the need for speed. OW!"

Top Gun

Prof.Frink · 09-05-2001 6:54pm

"Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'"-Shawshank Redemption

Glaven

Wild at Heart
Nick Cage, surrounded by bad guys, takes out a Marlboro, takes a drag and says
"What do you faggots want?"

Then he gets battered

metalchicken · 09-05-2001 7:16pm

I know that strictly speaking I'm quoting four lines and not one, and that was after stopping myself from putting the entire screenplay in.
Anyone know the film?

Nigel Tufnel: "It's like, how much more black could this be?
and the answer is none. None more black."

Nigel Tufnel: "In ancient times, hundreds of years before the dawn of history, an ancient race of people... the Druids. No one knows who they were or what they were doing..."

Nigel Tufnel: "The sustain, listen to it."
Marty DiBergi: "I don't hear anything."
Nigel Tufnel: "Well you would though, if it were playing."

David St. Hubbins: "It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever."

Spinal Tap of course!!!

What about "This one goes up to eleven!" - classic

Bard

"We do know it was we who scorched the sky..."

chernobyl · 09-05-2001 7:34pm

Sorry to be so typically male..but my fav is from American Pie when Nadia reveals the goods and all the guys watching go "holy ****"
very funny.

Winning Hand · 09-05-2001 7:37pm

It wouldnt be spinal tap by anychance?

Ok these two lines are from the same film, who can spot it?

"Cos she's got a GREAT a$$, and you want to stick your head ALL the way up it"

Not sure how this goes exactly

"This guy can come into my house, eat my food, sit on my couch, bone my wife but he CANNOT WATCH MY TELEVISION"

Bob the Unlucky Octopus · 09-05-2001 7:45pm

Loads of fave lines- impossible to put 'em in at once. Two that come to mind are from a true classic:

"This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

and

"You know, the problems of two people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world..."

Another one would have to be (obviously) "I AM SPARTACUS!"

More to come as I think of them

I got loads

Marecellus Wallace"I'm prepared to scour the the Earth for that mother****er. If Butch goes to Indochina, I want a **** waiting in a bowl of rice ready to pop a cap in his ass." (Pulp Fiction)

Brodie"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for Sega. (Mallrats)

Mr. White"You shoot me in a dream, you'd better wake up and apologize." (Reservoir Dogs)

Dr. Peter Venkman"I don't have to take this abuse from you, I've got hundreds of people dying to abuse me." (Ghostbusters)

I have loads more but can't put my finger on 'em for the time being.

In a dark dark place, in a dark dark house, in a dark dark room, in a dark dark cupboard, in a dark dark shelf.

Another classic:

"How do you write women so well"

Jack Nicholson replies:

"I think of a man & take away reason & accountability"

Those two lines were spoken by Al Pacino in Heat, sir.

First one is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
Further quote;
"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die".

Loomer · 11-05-2001 12:07am

You just can't beat this classic when James Bond is on the table about to have his family benefit cut.

James Bond: Do you expect me to talk?
Auric Goldfinger: No Mr. Bond! I expect you to die!

Class!

In the midst of gunfire and madness in "The Crow" with lights flashing in a darkened room, suddenly it goes quiet and Draven pops up. All we see is his face, all we hear is his voice, as he says so matter-of-fact'ly ... "you're all going to die" - ... and then the mayhem resumes.
