I remember that one better, but still: the most memorable line from the movie is "What are you doing, Dave?" Hell, anyone named Dave probably hears this once a month in a bad attempt at humor.

Actually, I remember "Open the pod bay door, Hal" better than either of those. To each his own, I guess.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

i always liked this quote from bull durham
but its too long to make a list i think.



Crash Davis: Well, I believe in the soul, the ****, the *****, the small of a woman's back, the hangin' curveball, high fibre, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.

You know, for all the bias that list shows toward old classics, it doesn't have a single line from Singing in the Rain. I nominate:

Why, I make more money than - than - than Calvin Coolidge! Put together!

and

"People"? I ain't "people." I am a - "a shimmering, glowing star in the cinema firmament."

I find myself quoting that second one all the time...

I really prefer 'Hey you think we're fighting, but I think we are finally talking!'

Another one, same movie would be, 'yes, I stole the pootie.'

So that quote is at best, the third most memorable quote.

A shame that both these lines aren't listed at all:

LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring:
"all we have to decide is what to do with the time being given to us"

The Usual Suspects:
"The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he didn't exist"

Of course the worst movie-line ever would be:
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith:
"In my opinion the jedi are evil" (for sure concidering the time and place this qoute is being said )

Another few I think are sorely missing:

"Get busy living, or get busy dying" and "He crawled through a river of **** and came out clean on the other side" from The Shawshank Redemption.

"At my signal, unleash hell" and "What we do in life, echoes in eternity" from Gladiator.

"There is no spoon" and "Welcome to the real world" from The Matrix.

From Casablanca:

"I'm Shocked! Shocked! Gambling at Rick's American Cafe! I order this place closed immediately!"
"Here are your winnings mon capitain."
"Thank you, would you please cash them in for me?"

From Being There:

"I like to watch Eve."

From Shot in the Dark:

" I submit that you killed him in a rit of fealous jage!"

In his early movies Woddy Allen had a couple of good one-liners. There were a couple in Peter Seller's Mouse That Roared , but it's difficult to find copies of.

A few quotes from a very quotable movie:

Pimp: "I am looking for this dunghead who took my women. He is being liar to me. I want my *****es back! (arrow shoots at him) Holy ****! I'm going to get the **** out of here!"

Rick: "Who was that?"
O'Neill: "I don't know."
Rick: "Well what is this?" (points to arrow in wall)
O'Neill: "Got me."
Rick: "Well how about this?"(points to second arrow)
O'Neill: "Still drawing a blank."


Hotel Manager: Just where do you think you are?
Jay O'Neill: The Library of Congress?
Rudy: Detroit?
Brad: Beyond the sun?
Rick: Any of those right?


Cole: Rick, I want Debbie. You dump her and I'll give you cash. Ten thousand dollars, plus a G.E. toaster over; a Litton microwave; a Cuisinart; Michelin tires, brand new; a set of Sears' best metric tools...

Rick: The way I see it, this lug is in love and has a lot of major appliances lying around.

Rick Gassko: What the Hell are you doing?
Brad Mollin: I'm slashing my wrists.
Rick Gassko: With an electric razor?
Brad Mollin: Yeah, I know, I couldn't find any razor blades.


ACK!
