Post the best quotes from movies here.

[pallasathena]

Hattori Hanzo: For those regarded as warriors, when engaged in combat the vanquishing of thine enemy can be the warrior's only concern. Suppress all human emotion and compassion. Kill whoever stands in thy way, even if that be Lord God, or Buddha himself. This truth lies at the heart of the art of combat.

(Kill Bill, Vol. 1)

"Oh but anyway, Toto we're home! And this is my room - and you're all hear! and I'm not gonna leave ever again because I love you all - and oh Auntie Em, there's no place like home."

Kurtz: I've seen horrors... horrors that you've seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that... but you have no right to judge me. It's impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror. Horror has a face... and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not then they are enemies to be feared. They are truly enemies. I remember when I was with Special Forces. Seems a thousand centuries ago. We went into a camp to inoculate the children. We left the camp after we had inoculated the children for Polio, and this old man came running after us and he was crying. He couldn't see. We went back there and they had come and hacked off every inoculated arm. There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that. The genius. The will to do that. Perfect, genuine, complete, crystalline, pure. And then I realized they were stronger than we. Because they could stand that these were not monsters. These were men... trained cadres. These men who fought with their hearts, who had families, who had children, who were filled with love... but they had the strength... the strength... to do that. If I had ten divisions of those men our troubles here would be over very quickly. You have to have men who are moral... and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling... without passion... without judgment... without judgment. Because it's judgment that defeats us.

Photojournalist: Hey, man, you don't talk to the Colonel. You listen to him. The man's enlarged my mind. He's a poet-warrior in the classic sense. I mean sometimes he'll... uh... well, you'll say "hello" to him, right? And he'll just walk right by you. He won't even notice you. And suddenly he'll grab you, and he'll throw you in a corner, and he'll say, "do you know that 'if' is the middle word in life? If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you"... I mean I'm no, I can't... I'm a little man, I'm a little man, he's... he's a great man. I should have been a pair of ragged claws scuttling across floors of silent seas... (Dennis Hopper rules)

[Serket]

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams ... glitter in the dark near Tanhauser Gate. All those ... moments will be lost ... in time, like tears ... in rain. Time ... to die.

Clifford Worley: I haven't seen Clarence.
Coccotti: You see that?
[Holding a clenched fist, then striking Clifford]
Coccotti: That smarts, doesn't it? Getting slammed in the nose. Fucks you all up. You get that pain shootin' through your brain, your eyes fill up with water. That ain't any kind of fun, but what I have to offer you, that's as good as it's gonna get. And it won't ever get that good again. We talked to your neighbors. They saw a Cadillac. Purple Cadillac. Clarence's purple Cadillac, parked in front of your trailer yesterday. Mr. Worley, you seen your son?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coccotti: You know who I am, Mr. Worley?
Clifford Worley: I got no idea.
Coccotti: I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. I work as counsel for Mr. Blue Lou Boyle, the man your son stole from. I hear you were once a cop so I can assume you've heard of us before. Am I correct?
Clifford Worley: I heard of Blue Lou Boyle.
Coccotti: I'm glad. Hopefully it means we can cut out the part of the conversation where you're wondering how full of shit I am.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coccotti: Now, what we got here is a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothing but you're telling me everything.

Vincenzo Coccotti: Sicilians are great liars. The best in the world. I'm Sicilian. My father was the world heavy-weight champion of Sicilian liars. From growing up with him I learned the pantomime. There are seventeen different things a guy can do when he lies to give himself away. A guys got seventeen pantomimes. A woman's got twenty, but a guy's got seventeen... but, if you know them, like you know your own face, they beat lie detectors all to hell. Now, what we got here is a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothin', but you're tellin me everything. I know you know where they are, so tell me before I do some damage you won't walk away from.

"Men? Men are weak.

It is in Men that we must place our hope.

I would use this ring from a desire to do good... But through me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine.

You are a Ring-bearer, Frodo. To bear a Ring of Power is to be alone.

The same blood flows in my veins. The same weakness.

Hunt them down. Do not stop until they are found. You do not know pain, you do not know fear."

LOTR had great quotes!

Stop acting like this is a contest. It's not as if you wrote the quotes yourself, so why be so proud of them?

[Uberfuhrer]

The first one! (But it could be any of the four.)

The theatrical version of the fourth one had the lamest iteration of that line.

[TheLastMohican]

"Lame" because it was covered up by the noise?

[Toby]

The first one! (But it could be any of the four.)

Hmm you're right but I meant the first one.

Did you censor motherfucker in your quote of my post or is it the forum software?

[TheLastMohican]

Hmm you're right but I meant the first one.

Did you censor motherf***er in your quote of my post or is it the forum software?

I censored it. I think it is not necessary to write out the profanity for others to know what you mean.

Best dialogue ever (from Waiting):

Monty's Mom: So I called your house today, at two. You were still asleep, weren't you?
Monty: That's an understatement.
Monty's Mom: So what did you do last night? I trust my little angel didn't do anything immoral.
Monty: Well, ummm... Let's see. I started by getting completely hammered drunk. It was bad. Then drove, while intoxicated, to pick up this disease-infested hooker.
Monty's Mom: Uh huh...
Monty: From there... uh, let's see. Me and the hooker went back to my place...
Monty's Mom: The hooker and I.
Monty: Excuse me. The hooker and I went back to my place and from there... God, it was just a blur of intravenous drug abuse and unprotected sex, while taking the Lord's name in vain.
Monty's Mom: Dean, did you know that when Monty was a child everyone thought he was retarded?
Monty: Dean, doesn't my mom look old? I mean, much older than she rightfully should?
Monty's Mom: So why aren't you and Serena still together? I liked her.
Monty: I don't know. I guess it got old. We had a relationship based on orgasms.
Monty's Mom: Oh, how charming. You are being safe aren't you? I don't think I could handle the idea of you reproducing.
Monty: Come on, mom! Of course I'm being safe. I pull out.
Monty's Mom: Yes, well your father pulled out too but we've all seen the tragic end of that story.
Monty: You think I wanna have kids? Absolutely not! That's why I stick to anal sex.
Monty's Mom: If only I had been so lucky.

Donnie Darko
First of all: Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette; Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village. But the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gangbang scenario - hah! I-it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual, th-they don't even have...reproductive organs under those little...white...pants. That's what's so illogical, y'know, about being a Smurf. Y'know what's the point of living... if you don't have a d***?

Ditto on the Peter Gibbons quote. Classic. Also:

Jesus: "Yes?"
Comicus: "What?"

Here is some great George Lucas writing:

Elan Sleazebaggano: You wanna buy some death sticks?
Obi-Wan: [using the Jedi mind trick] You don't want to sell me death sticks.
Elan Sleazebaggano: I don't want to sell you death sticks.
Obi-Wan: You want to go home and rethink your life.
Elan Sleazebaggano: I want to go home and rethink my life.

Obi-Wan: You want to go home and rethink your life.
Elan Sleazebaggano: I want to go home and rethink my life.

Obi-Wan's second line there is one of my all-time favorite movie lines. I'm surprised I didn't already post it here.

[Sorcerer88]

V for Vendetta has some great dialogue. It's nearly not an action film at all.


V: People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.


Delia Surridge: You've come to kill me, haven't you?
V: Yes.
Delia Surridge: Thank God.

V: And thus I clothe my naked villainy / With old odd ends stolen forth from holy writ/And seem a saint when most I play the devil.
[quoting Shakespeare's Richard III, Act I Scene 3]

and of course the classic, the intro, although a little inflated:
V: [Evey pulls out her mace] I can assure you I mean you no harm.
Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Evey Hammond: Oh. Right.
V: But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace sobriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona.
V: Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
[carves V into poster on wall]
V: The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
[giggles]
V: Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.
Evey Hammond: Are you like a crazy person?
V: I am quite sure they will say so. But to whom, might I ask, am I speaking with?
Evey Hammond: I'm Evey.
V: Evey? E-V. Of course you are.
Evey Hammond: What does that mean?
V: It means that I, like God, do not play with dice and I don't believe in coincidences.

I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?

"Do you always begin conversations that way?" That response just always cracks me up.


One of my all-time favorites, if I could just get it committed to memory in its entirety:
Hey! If any of you are looking for any last-minute gift ideas for me, I have one-- I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people and I want him brought right here, with a big ribbon on his head, and I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey shit he is!! Hallelujah!! Holy shit!! Where's the Tylenol?!

[knitteratheart]

"Life is pain. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something."

"Why do you wear a mask?"
"They're terribly comfortable, I imagine everyone will wear them in the future."

"You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!....(dies)"

"Surrender."
"You wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept"

"You seem a decent fellow, I hate to kill you"
"You seem a decent fellow, I hate to die"

"I have to believe in a world outside my own mind. I have to believe that my actions still have meaning, even if I can't remember them. I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world's still there. Do I believe the world's still there? Is it still out there?... Yeah. We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are. I'm no different." -- Leonard Shelby, Memento

"New Mother: Is it a boy or a girl?
Obstretrician: I think it's a bit early to start imposing roles on it, don't you?"

[Uberfuhrer]

"I've got a bad feeling about this." --All Star Wars films

[INTJewel]

"First principles, Clarice. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing, ask... what is it, in itself? What is its nature? What does he do, this man you seek?"

"He kills women."

"NO. That is incidental. What is the first and principle thing he does? What needs does he serve by killing?"

"Anger. Social acceptance and sexual frustration."

"No. He covets. That is his nature. And how do we first begin to covet, Clarice? Do we seek out things to covet? Make an effort to answer now."

"No. We just..."

"No. We begin by coveting what we see everyday. Don't you feel eyes moving over your body, Clarice? And don't your eyes seek out the things you want?"

[MCR]

Hmm...I have many. But my top 3 are:

"Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here."
(Jack Nicholson, As Good As It Gets)

"There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!"
(Ben Kingsley, Sneakers)

And the one I say on a daily basis, as least once:

"Put the f*%$ing lotion in the basket!"
(Crazy guy from Silence of the Lambs...I forget the actor's name)

NETWORK -



"I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be! We know things are bad - worse than bad, They're crazy! It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone!' Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone! I want you to get MAD! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot - I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad! You've got to say, "I'm a HUMAN BEING, GODDAMNIT! My LIFE has VALUE!!" So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now, and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out and yell: "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!!" I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!... You've got to say, 'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!!"


"You're beginning to believe the illusions we're spinning here, you're beginning to believe that the tube is reality and your own lives are unreal. You do. Why, whatever the tube tells you: you dress like the tube, you eat like the tube, you raise your children like the tube, you even think like the tube. This is mass madness, you maniacs. In God's name, you people are the real thing, WE are the illusion. Right now, there is a whole, an entire generation that never knew anything that didn't come out of this tube. This tube is the gospel, the ultimate revelation; this tube can make or break presidents, popes, prime ministers; this tube is the most awesome goddamn propaganda force in the whole godless world, and woe is us if it ever falls into the hands of the wrong people[..]"


"Good evening. Today is Wednesday, September the 24th, and this is my last broadcast. Yesterday I announced on this program that I was going to commit public suicide, admittedly an act of madness. Well, I'll tell you what happened: I just ran out of bullshit. Am I still on the air? I really don't know any other way to say it other than I just ran out of bullshit. Bullshit is all the reasons we give for living. And if we can't think up any reasons of our own, we always have the God bullshit. We don't know why we're going through all this pointless pain, humiliation, decays, so there better be someone somewhere who does know. That's the God bullshit. And then, there's the noble man bullshit; that man is a noble creature that can order his own world; who needs God? Well, if there's anybody out there that can look around this demented slaughterhouse of a world we live in and tell me that man is a noble creature, believe me: That man is full of bullshit. I don't have anything going for me. I haven't got any kids. And I was married for forty-three years of shrill, shrieking fraud. So I don't have any bullshit left. I just ran out of it, you see."


"The people spoke! The people won! It was a radiant eruption of democracy! But, I think that was it fellas. That sort of thing is not likely to happen again, because at the bottom of all our terrified souls we know that democracy is a dying giant; a sick, sick, dying, decaying political concept riding in it's final pain. I don't mean that the United States is finished as a world power. The United States is the richest, most powerful, most advance country in the world, light years ahead of any country, and I don't mean the communists are going to take over the world because the communists are deader than we are. What is finished, is the idea that this great country is dedicated to the freedom and flourish of every individual in it; it's the individual that's finished. It's the single, solitary human being that's finished; it's every single one of you out there that's finished. Because this is no longer a nation of independent individuals, it's a nation of two-hundred some-odd million transistorized, deodorized, whiter-than-white steel-belted bodies, totally unnecessary as human beings, and as replaceable as piston rods."

The great Ted Levine. :)

Ah, yes! He is a great actor.

Too bad that everything else I've seen him in since reminds me of that "dance sequence" he had in this movie. (Shudder)

[Amity]

Steve Martin as Navin R. Johnson in The Jerk:

You look so beautiful and peaceful, you almost look dead. And I'm glad, because there's something I want to say that's always been very difficult for me to say.... "I slit the sheet, the sheet I slit, and on the slitted sheet I sit." There. I've never been relaxed enough around anyone to say that.

[INTJCanuck]

I can't really spoil anything by posting these quotes, because John Candy and Steve Martin deliver them so well. Here are a handful from my favorite movie, "Planes, Trains & Automobiles":

----
"Dell Griffith, American Light & Fixture, Shower Curtain Ring Division. I sell shower curtain rings. Best in the world."
---
"What is your problem? You insensitive assh*le!!"
---
"You broke the seat, you broke the g*d-damn seat! I don't believe it!"
"... well, it wasn't broken when I got out."
"You messed around with it till you broke it."
"How do you break a car seat? It's impossible!"
---
"Let me close this conversation by saying you are one unique individual."
"What is 'unique', uh, Latin for 'assh*le'?"
---
"If I wanted a joke, I'd follow you into the john and watch you take a leak! Now are you gonna help me or are ya gonna stand there like a... slab of meat with mittens?"
---
"I've never seen anyone get picked up by their testicles before. You're lucky that cop came by when he did, otherwise you'd be liftin' up your schnuts to tie your shoes!"

And then there's the whole rental-car dealership conversation that's not fit to be posted here in its entirety. My sides ache from laughing so hard whenever I hear it. "I want a f*cking car, right f*cking now!"

One dollar and nine cents!

Okay, then, I had to look this one up:

"I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week, and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again, and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother, and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day, and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half. I have it written down, but I can show it to you tomorrow if you want to see it."

Okay, then, I had to look this one up:


I just wish the movie was a little cleaner; I think it's a classic.

[azelismia]

oh I just posted this on another thread in response to something else. but

Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): All right. Where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right... and who is dead.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You've made your decision then?
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Not remotely. Because iocane comes from Australia, as everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Wait til I get going! Now, where was I?
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Australia.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Yes, Australia. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You're just stalling now.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've beaten my giant, which means you're exceptionally strong, so you could've put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you've also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You're trying to trick me into giving away something. It won't work.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! I KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Then make your choice.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): I will, and I choose - What in the world can that be?
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): [Vizzini gestures up and away from the table. Roberts looks. Vizzini swaps the goblets]
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): What? Where? I don't see anything.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. No matter.First, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.), Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): [they drink ]
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You guessed wrong.
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha...
Vizzini (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): [Vizzini stops suddenly, and falls dead to the right]
Buttercup (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): And to think, all that time it was your cup that was poisoned.
Man in Black (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.): They were both poisoned. I spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder.

^ One of the best-written scenes of all time, right there.

[robolizard55]

"Ahhhh... I can always smell a graveyard" - Gabriel - Christopher Walken - The Prophecy

Maybe it's just the delivery.

[Amity]

¡Three Amigos!

"Later, you could kiss me on the veranda."
"Lips would be fine."

[TheLastMohican]

¡Three Amigos!

"Later, you could kiss me on the veranda."
"Lips would be fine."

:laugh: I love that movie!
(How come the INTJ's here tend to like the same movies I do?)

The magnificent "El Guapo" speech delivered by Steve Martin:

"In a way, all of us have an El Guapo to face someday. For some, shyness might be their El Guapo. For others, a lack of education might be their El Guapo. For us, El Guapo is a big dangerous guy who wants to kill us. But as sure as my name is Lucky Day, the people of Santa Poco can conquer their own personal El Guapo, who also happens to be the actual El Guapo."

[Amity]

:laugh: I love that movie!
(How come the INTJ's here tend to like the same movies I do?)
Um, because NTs tend to be wonderfully pedantic?

JEFE: I have put many beautiful piñatas in the storeroom, each of them filled with little surprises.
EL GUAPO: Many piñatas?
JEFE: Oh, yes, many!
EL GUAPO: Would you say I have a plethora of piñatas?
JEFE: A what?
EL GUAPO: A plethora.
JEFE: Oh, yes, you have a plethora.
EL GUAPO: Jefe..., what is a plethora?
JEFE: Why, El Guapo?
EL GUAPO: Well, you told me I have a plethora. And I just would like to know if you know what a plethora is. I would not like to think that a person would tell someone he has a plethora, and then find out that that person has no idea what it means to have a plethora.
JEFE: Forgive me, El Guapo. I know that I, Jefe, do not have your superior intellect and education. But could it be that once again, you are angry at something else, and are looking to take it out on me?

[TheLastMohican]

Um, because NTs tend to be wonderfully pedantic?

Uh...right. :cheesy:


JEFE: I have put many beautiful piñatas in the storeroom, each of them filled with little surprises...



That was another exchange I thought of. That movie is just full of great lines. My family was quoting this converstation for months afterwards, because we laughed so hard.
(I think it just fits INTJ very well, too, with the anal nature of El Guapo's setup.)

*German accent* "Anyone else with a comment?"

[ElstonGunn]

"You broke the seat, you broke the g*d-damn seat! I don't believe it!"
"... well, it wasn't broken when I got out."
"You messed around with it till you broke it."
"How do you break a car seat? It's impossible!"

"I'm not gonna be held responsible for faulty engineering." (I use that line a lot.)

---------
"You shared a motel room with a complete stranger? Are you crazy?"
"Not yet. But I'm getting there."

---------
"If they told you wolverines would make good house pets, would you believe them?"

---------
That whole scene in the cheap motel towards the end is great, too. Tequila and Doritos, "Is this a good combo, or what?" "No, probably not."

[Amity]

I just wish the movie was a little cleaner
Cleaner how?

[TheLastMohican]

Cleaner how?

I don't like the sex-related humor. (I'm Christian.)

[Amity]

I don't like the sex-related humor. (I'm Christian.)
It sometimes makes me uncomfortable, too. (I'm Prudish.)

I'm often uncomfortable around sexual humor. I have to avoid associative behavior. (I'm a recovering nymphomaniac.)

Thats nothing. (I was Jesus, a combination of all three.)

[INTJoe]

Jesus, how did I just now see this thread?!?

LOL, didn't realize many INTJs liked Three Amigos...here are some off the top of my head:

"It's a Sweater! A Sweater!"
"Farley, Farley, Farley, Farley, Ha-Farrrr-ley!"
"My guess is this is the singing bush."
"Chip-Chip-Chip-Chip-Non-nee!!!!!!"
"Goodnight Ned"
"Do joo know what fore-play ees?" "No." "Good, neither does El Guapo."
"The IN-famous El Guapo!"
"It's a mail plane." "How do you know?" "You can tell by the two little balls." <---this joke is phonetic. lol.

Here is a single quote I can think of off the top of my head from a random stack of my DVDs:

"Do the chickens have talons?"
"Hey there you are!" "Do I know you?" "No, but there you are."
"Don't act like you're not impressed..."
"I'm Buck Melanoma, Mazy Russell's wart."
"Chris...you have a BMW...act like it!"
"I approve of your war of terror!"
"Hold on there, professor...uh-we fixed the glitch. Problem solved on your end."
"This is where we always get into a heated debate...she likes 'em huge, but I prefer them enormous."

[INTJCanuck]

** The motel scene at the end is hilarious, but the scene with the motorized car seat usually has me gasping for air on the ground.

"Gee, it must be swell being so perfect AND odor-free. There's lots of things that bother me about you but I'm decent enough to not bring them up."
"Oh yeah? Like what?"
"Oh, there's quite a few things."

"Alright, you want me to name one? Fine... You play with your balls a lot."

"Another couple balls and an extra set of fingers?!"

"You know, when I'm dead and buried, all I'm gonna have to prove I was here were some shower curtain rings that didn't fall down. Great legacy, huh?"

"You know, Stubville's a little further than Wichita!"
"How much further?"
"30 miles. Maybe 40. No more than 45 though. Depending on which way you go. If you go the backroads, it could be 50 anywhere up to 70 miles!"
** It drives me INSANE when people say these kinds of things to me. Give me a straight answer for goodness' sake haha.
----
"... I had over $700 in there and last night you went into my wallet for pizza, just maybe..."
"Count it. There's $263 dollars in there, if there's a dollar more, THEN you can call me a thief. Just count it! Count it! $263, right?"
"Empty."
"WHAT??"
"Dry."

"We were robbed!"

From now on you’ll have no identifying marks of any kind. You’ll not stand out in any way. Your entire image is crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter. You’re a rumor, recognizable only as déjà vu and dismissed just as quickly. You don’t exist; you were never even born. Anonymity is your name. Silence your native tongue.

The Hellraiser films have some wicked lines:

"No tears, please. It's a waste of good suffering."
--Hellraiser, 1987

"Your suffering will be legendary, even in hell"
--Hellbound: Hellraiser II, (1988)

"Unbearable, isn't it? The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends. There is a secret song at the center of the world, Joey, and its sound is like razors through flesh."
--Pinhead (Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, 1992)

"Oh come, you can hear its faint echo right now. I'm here to turn up the volume. To press the stinking face of humanity into the dark blood of its own secret heart."
--Pinhead (Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, 1992)

"Save your tears. We´ll reap your soul slowly We have centuries to discover the things that make you whimper. You think your nighttime world is closed to me? Your mind is so naked. A book that yearns to be read. A door that begs to be opened."
--Pinhead (Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, 1992)

"Do I look like someone who cares what God thinks?"
--Pinhead (Hellraiser: Bloodline, 1996)

[replicant]

Hellraiser had some fine lines.

I like all sorts of quotes from quirky silly movies like Adrienne Shelly's Waitress

"Dear damn baby, If you ever want to know the story of how we bought your damn crib, I will tell you. Your crib was bought with the money that was supposed to buy me a new life. Every time I lay you down in that damn crib, I'm gonna think, 'Damn baby. Damn Crib. Me stuck like a pin in this damn life."

From Fido

"Bill Robinson: I'd say I'm a pretty darn good father. My father tried to eat me, I don't remember trying to eat Timmy.

Helen Robinson: Bill, just because your father tried to eat you, does that mean we all have to be unhappy... forever? "

From War Games,

"Mr. Liggett: All right, Lightman. Maybe you can tell us who first suggested the idea of reproduction without sex.

David Lightman: Um, your wife? "

From Real Genius

"Bodie: He said he didn't feel like it. And I said, you'd better! And he said, or what? And I said, or else you're gonna be in trouble. And he said jam it.
Professor Hathaway: That's a wonderful story, Bodie. I noticed you've stopped stuttering.
Bodie: I've been giving myself shock treatments.
Professor Hathaway: Up the voltage. "
