Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

Oh, and

"Rosebud."

That is a good one sue. Another great story.

I used one of my favorites within one of Milo's blogs the other day:

"Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!"

This is the often quoted adulterated version of the actual line from the book and subsequent film The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Great film.

Yo, Adrian! You talkin' to me? You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk? I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse. And Toto, too.

Not that it gets used much but I've always liked "Klaatu Barada Nikto."

Then there is always:

"We don' need no steenkin' badges!" Treasure of the Sierra Madre

"I'm shocked - shocked - that there is gambling going on in this establishment." Casablanca

"The stuff dreams are made of." Maltese Falcon

"Don't get cocky, kid." Star Wars

"Our dreams are like our children." My Fellow Americans

And for my special lady, "As you wish." Princess Bride

Sorry,

I didn't see your post.

Just to nitpick, I think the line is "what we have here is: failure to communicate", although it is almost always quoted the way you did.

Another often quoted line is "play it again, Sam" from Casablanca. This line is never spoken in the movie

pretty close though...

Both my nits were pretty small to pick, I admit

The "Play it again Sam" quote is most often attributed to Bogart.

In Bedazzled: "It must be the wages." (Can't remember if it was the Dudley Moore character.)

"Soylent Green is people!"

I have a .wav file of that quote that I used to play whenever the atmosphere in the cube farm got too tense or too intense...

...Ya can't beat the desperation in Thorn's voice.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhhhhahahhhahhhahahaha

I remember, totally brilliant, many thanks for reminding me/us.

Sadly he died a week or so ago, but he did reach a good age......we will all miss him, his films are still worth watching again and again if you like a good belly laugh!!.

Speaking of the great Leslie Nielson: In response to "Surely, you can't be serious" ... "Yes I am, and don't call me Shirley."

And here are a few more of my favourites:

God bless us everyone - Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol

I'll be back - The Terminator

Oh behave! - Austin Powers

Beam me up Scotty - Another one of those lines that is oft quoted but was never actually said

I'm a doctor, not a ________ - Dr. McCoy in Star Trek (Fill in the blank with a number of different options)

Foozball is the devil! - Kathy Bates as Bobby Boucher's mother in The Waterboy

Here endeth the lesson - Elliot Ness in The Untouchables

I agree; another great quote from First Contact is Worf's "Perhaps today is a good day to die."

<Here endeth the lesson - Elliot Ness in The Untouchables.>

Another line from the same movie, I think..."Trust a wop to bring a knife to a gunfight." Sorry to any Italian folks out there.

"Plastics". The Graduate.

"Childhood is what you spend the rest of your life trying to overcome. That's what momma always says. She says that beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most. Try to remember that when you find yourself at a new beginning. Just give hope a chance to float up."
Sandra Bullock in Hope Floats

"Everyone has two lives, the one you learn with and the one you live with after that."
Glenn Close in The Natural

"Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at. Most things in here don't react too well to bullets"
Sean Connery, The Hunt For Red October

"Don't cut the blue wire" from one out of every four movies

Cornelius reading from the sacred scrolls of the apes.

Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

Was it over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor?

First off I love this topic. lynlynch - you stole my all time favorite line, I'll read what's been posted so far and chime in.

Yes but, I stole it from dgibson who posted it first.

Guys, did you ever consider that maybe Gizma never saw, or heard of, the Dirty Harry movies?

It's not a 'dirty' movie. It's an action film about a San Francisco cop with a big gun and bigger attitude.

I thought he was talking about about my Debbie Does Dallas reference. By the way, I never saw the movie.

I never saw "Debbie Does Dallas" either, but I saw some of the sequels...

"Debbie Does Boston"

"Debbie Does Los Angeles"

"Debbie Does Texas"

"Debbie Does Asia"

and then there was the last one "Debbie Can't Do It No More"

In reality, many years ago, I had a video distribution business. I occasionally had to watch X rated movies, paying attention to the quality of the tape, rather than the contents of the movie. Now that was a challenge.

King Arthur: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?

King Arthur: Please!

Well, I found the exact quote that I liked from the movie "hero" with Dustin Hoffman, but it's a bit different than I remember:

"You remember when I said how I was gonna explain about life, buddy? Well the thing about life is, it gets weird. People are always talking ya about truth. Everybody always knows what the truth is, like it was toilet paper or somethin', and they got a supply in the closet. But what you learn, as you get older, is there ain't no truth. All there is is bullsh-t, pardon my vulgarity here. Layers of it. One layer of bullsh-t on top of another. And what you do in life like when you get older is, you pick the layer of bullsh-t that you prefer and that's your bullsh-t, so to speak."

I was a bit disappointed.

In my mind, I remember: "life is like a bullsh-t onion. You just keep peeling back the bullsh-t until you get a layer that you're comfortable with"

Was there ever a movie 'Lilli Marleen' in English?

Well, here's the whole song. More than one sentence but quiet poignant. Favorite? Some times, lesser buy the day although one has to watch ones back.

It's a hard rain gonna fall B.D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZggV1HUhqKw

While I'm at it.

And what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son ?

And what'll you do now my darling young one ?

I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'

I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest

Where the people are a many and their hands are all empty

Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters

Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison

Where the executioner's face is always well hidden

Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten

Where black is the color, where none is the number

And I'll tell and think it and speak it and breathe it

And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it

Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'

But I'll know my songs well before I start singin'

And it's a hard, it's a hard,

it'sa hard, and it's a hard

It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

and of course, there are far too many other funnies in this movie to list...

This is definitely one of my all time favorite movies. The humor is absolutely great, and the music is my era. Luckilly I spent it in college rather than boondocking with an M16.

Mel Gibson as Lt. Col. Hal Moore in "We Were Soldiers Once, and Young"; "I promise you this, I will be the first man on the field of battle and the last man off". That is leadership from the front.

Same movie; "You learn the job of the person above you and teach yours to the one below you, because when it all goes to hell, we're all we've got".

A Bugs Life; "This is nothing, remember the twig of '82". When a leaf fell in their path. The rest of the bugs needed a leader who wasn't phased by an obstacle to their task. Our families and those we are responsible for need us to help them learn how to meet and deal with the obstacles of life and business.

Hello everybody again, and it is right again that a good night sleep helps:speaking abot 'Nam, i just recalled one of my own favourites from the Apocalipse now stuff.

My Cousin Vinnie (1992)

Vinny Gambini: [Vinny hears a drip in the motel bathroom] Weren't you the last one to use the bathroom?
Lisa: So?
Vinny Gambini: Well, did you use the faucet?
Lisa: Yeah.
Vinny Gambini: Then why didn'tcha turn it off?
Lisa: I DID turn it off!
Vinny Gambini: Well, if you turned it off, why am I listening to it?
Lisa: Did it ever occur to you it could be turned off AND drip at the same time?
Vinny Gambini: No. Because if you'd turned it off, it wouldn't drip!
Lisa: Maybe it's broken.
Vinny Gambini: Is that what you're saying? It's broken?
Lisa: Yeah. That's it, it's broken.
Vinny Gambini: You sure?
Lisa: I'm positive.
Vinny Gambini: Maybe you didn't twist it hard enough.
Lisa: I twisted it just right.
Vinny Gambini: How could you be so sure?
Lisa: [sighs] If you will look in the manual, you will see that this particular model faucet requires a range of 10 to 16 foot-pounds of torque. I routinely twist the maximum allowable torquage.
Vinny Gambini: Well, how could you be sure you used 16 foot-pounds of torque?
Lisa: Because I used a Craftsman model 1019 Laboratory Edition Signature Series torque wrench. The kind used by Caltech high energy physicists. And NASA engineers.
Vinny Gambini: Well, in that case, how can you be sure THAT's accurate?
Lisa: Because a split second before the torque wrench was applied to the faucet handle, it had been calibrated by top members of the state AND federal Department of Weights and Measures... to be dead on balls accurate!
[She rips a page out of a magazine and hands it to him]
Lisa: Here's the certificate of validation.
Vinny Gambini: Dead on balls accurate?
Lisa: It's an industry term.
Vinny Gambini: [tosses paper away] I guess the f___ing thing is broken.
