Just want to know what is a favorite movie quote from the users here.
These are some of my favorite ones.
Johnny Dangerously (1984 - Michael Keaton, Joe Piscapo, Danny DaVito, etc)
Quote:
Danny Vermin (Joe Piscapo)
"I've fulfilled a lot of people's predictions about me. I've become a real scumbag."
Quote:
Ma Kelly (Maureen Stapleton - RIP)
"Bless the saints, it's an ashtray! I've been thinking of taking up smoking. This clinches it!"
Quote:
Johnny Dangerously (Michael Keaton)
"The name's Dangerously. Johnny Dangerously."
Lil (Marilu Henner)
"Did you know you're last name is an adverb? "
Quote:
Roman Moroni (Richard Dimitri) (My favorite character in the movie, LOL )
"I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves. "
I've never seen that movie, might have to pick it up sometime.
As for my favorites, "favorite" to me is a relative term, but I'll give it a shot:
From "Terminator 2: Judgment Day"...
Sarah Connor: "On August 29, 1997, it's gonna feel pretty f****n real to you too! Anybody not wearing 2 million sunblock is gonna have a real bad day, get it!?!?!"
Several good ones from "Jurassic Park"...
Dr Ian Malcolm: "The lack of humility before nature that's being displayed here, uh... staggers me."
Dr Ellie Sattler: "I was overwhelmed by the power of this place; but I made a mistake, too. I didn't have enough respect for that power and it's out now. The only thing that matters now are the people we love: Alan and Lex and Tim. John, they're out there where people are dying."
And Dr Sattler's response to the assertion that Jurassic Park would be successful with better/more control mechanisms in place: "You never had control! That's the illusion!"
And from "The Shining"... (my favorite horror movie)
Wendy Torrance: [crying] Stay away from me.
Jack Torrance: Why?
Wendy: I just wanna go back to my room!
Jack: Why?
Wendy: Well, I'm very confused, and I just need time to think things over!
Jack: You've had your whole F*****G LIFE to think things over, what good's a few minutes more gonna do you now?
Wendy: Please! Don't hurt me!
Jack: I'm not gonna hurt you.
Wendy: Stay away from me!
Jack: Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life. I'm not gonna hurt ya. You didn't let me finish my sentence. I said, I'm not gonna hurt ya. I'm just going to bash your brains in.
[Wendy gasps]
Jack: Gonna bash 'em right the f**k in! ha ha ha
Wendy: Stay away from me! Don't hurt me!
Jack: [sarcastically] I'm not gonna hurt ya...
Wendy: Stay away! Stop it!
Jack: Stop swingin' the bat. Put the bat down, Wendy. Wendy? Give me the bat...
@FlGator81: You should, it is worth at least a rent.
Another one from Johnny Dangerously:
Quote:
Romano Moroni
"You fargin sneaky bastage. I'm gonna take your dwork. I'm gonna nail it to the wall. I'm gonna crush your boils in a meat grinder. I'm gonna cut off your arms. I'm gonna shove 'em up your icehole. Dirty son-a-ma-batches!"
Dumb & Dumber:
Quote:
Harry: "Where's the booze?"
Lloyd: "I got robbed by a sweet old lady on a motorized cart. I didn't even see it comin'!"
Lloyd: "Harry... Oh, come on, Harry. Cheer up..."
Harry: "It gets worse, Lloyd. My parakeet, Petey..."
Lloyd: "Yeah?"
Harry: "He's dead."
Lloyd: "Oh... Oh, man, I'm sorry, Harry. What happened?"
Harry: "His head fell off."
Lloyd: "His head fell off?"
Harry: "Yeah, he was pretty old."
Lloyd: "That's it. I've had it with this dump! We've got no food, we got no jobs,... our pets' HEADS ARE FALLIN' OFF!!!"
