[#703238]

Was musing this one over the weekend.

Rubbish film, but love this line...

'You, 8 o'clock. You, 9 o'clock... (pauses and looks at her haggard face) bring a friend. (Alan Rickman in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves).

Most useful has been

Tin Cup, another Costner film.

"You couldnt handle the truth" Nicholson in A few good men. Excellent acting and a great outburst.

bit more than a single line I'm afraid but I like it.

Tyler Durden: Fight club.
"Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off. "

Slim: You know you don't have to act with me, Steve. You don't have to say anything, and you don't have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and... blow.

From "Big Wednesday"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Matt Johnson: You know, Mrs. Barlow, there's something I'd like straighten out.
Mrs. Barlow: What's that, Matt?
Matt Johnson: Well, I did a lot of things around here I'm kind of ashamed of. I tore up your lawn with my '40 Ford...
Mrs. Barlow: Many times.
Matt Johnson: Took my pants off in front of your friends...
Mrs. Barlow: Oh, yes.
Matt Johnson: And I even passed out in your closet, but I never, and I don't know who could have if I didn't, but I never, and I repeat never, ever pissed in your steam iron.

mastiles, I agree that RH, Prince of Thieves is a crapy film, but Alan Rickman is goooood in that film. Pretty much saves it as a watchable film.

"Put the bunny back in the box" Another crap film.

So many from Apocalypse Now - the smell of napalm, etc.

Live & Let Die

Sheriff J.W. Pepper had some great lines

[i][b]I got me a regular Ben-Hur down here. Doing 95... minimum

Secret AGENT? On WHOSE side?

What are you? Some kinda doomsday machine boy? Well WE got a cage strong enough to hold an animal like you here!

Did you ever think of getting a driver's licence, boy?

By the powers invested in me by this parish, I hereby do commandeer this vehicle and all those persons within.
And that means you, smartass.

You picked the WRONG parish to haul ass through BOY! NOBODY cuts and runs on Sheriff JW PEPPER! And it's him who's speakin' by the by. [/b][/i]

A speech rather than a line but considering the film was made in 1940 and his first spoken language film, a pretty brave film.

Dammit, beat me to it with the Con Air "bunny" quote - surreal moment.

Love the Hudson/Vasquez lines from Aliens:
Hudson:"Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
Vasquez:"No. Have you?"

Ouch.

Quotes from The Big Lebowski - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/quotes

"Let me tell you something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy sh*t with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the f*cking trigger 'til it goes "click."

Genius 🙂

We want cake, and fine wines. We want the finest wines known to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!

Or - the 'foot massage' scene outside the door in Pulp Fiction.

"Look maybe your method of massage differs from mine, but touchin' his lady's feet, and stickin' your tongue in her holyiest of holyies, ain't the same ballpark, ain't the same league, ain't even the same chuffin' sport"
