An Evening Comment Diversion / Dustin Rowles

Comment Diversions | June 10, 2009 | Comments (218)


Liquid Generation put together this clip of 100 great quotes in 200 seconds, and while the clip is pretty amusing, it’s mostly the same bunch of “iconic” movie quotes everyone puts together. Take a look:

Great, ha ha. Wonderful.

Sigh.

So, your assignment tonight is to do what you folks do best: Point out the oversights. What is your favorite movie quote, not included in the above 100? Maybe I’ll put together a nice Seriously Random List tallying up the your best movie quotes from this diversion.

Have at it. As for me: “There’s a cello in your house.” — Rocket Science


Rob Cohen Directs Medieval | The Grasshopper King by Jordan Ellenberg

I can't access that, so I'm just throwing this one out there and hoping it's not on because it's probably my favorite opening line:

"Ever since I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster."

Henry Hill

"Goodfellas"

BTW, imdb says it's "As far back as ..." but I don't remember it that way.

"When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to Abba songs. But since I've met you and moved to Sydney, I haven't listened to one Abba song. That's because my life is as good as an Abba song. It's as good as Dancing Queen." Muriel's Wedding

For Batman, I would have gone with "Where does he get those wonderful toys?", but I fully concur with seth on "What's a nubian?" Also, they needed something from Bull Durham, preferably "Strikeouts are boring. Besides that, they're fascist."

They missed a few.

"Yipee-kay-ay, motherfucker."

"Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night"

"Yeeeee-haaaaaaaw" (The B-52 bomber from Dr. Strangelove)

(and my favorite from that same movie)

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!

"He's an angel. He's an angel straight from heaven!" (Raising Arizona is one of my favorite movies of all time, and my sister and I ALWAYS use this line, complete with voices, whenever someone whips out new baby pictures.)

"That your friend over there in the woodchipper?"

"That's atomized colloidal silver. It's being pumped through the building's air conditioning system, you cock-juggling thundercunt!"

Posted by: majandra at June 10, 2009 9:37 PM

Just copy and paste any line from The Big Lebowski, that movie is priceless.

"Shut the fuck up, Donny."

Posted by: George at June 10, 2009 9:47 PM

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains."

Words to live by my friends.

Posted by: Austin asking for trouble at June 10, 2009 9:57 PM

There are so many quotes from The Boondock Saints that I could put on here. My favorites:

"Why don't you make like a tree, and get the fuck outta here?"

and

"I killed your cat, you druggie bitch."
"Why?"
"Because I thought it would bring closure to our relationship."

Posted by: Shell'sBells at June 10, 2009 9:57 PM

There are a million quotes from The Princess Bride, any Monty Python film, and any Kevin Smith movie that could be added to that. I would also include the following:

"You stay classy, San Diego." - Anchorman
"Meet me in Montauk." - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
"You can't fight in here, this is the War Room!" - Dr. Strangelove
"What is your major malfunction, soldier?!" - Full Metal Jacket
"I'm gonna go medieval on your ass." - Pulp Fiction
"It's not your fault." - Good Will Hunting
"How am I not myself?" - I Heart Huckabees

And Dustin Hoffman's "King Lear" speech in Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. I'm not kidding. Watch that, and tell me that's not excellent.

"I don't think I want to know a six-year-old who isn't a dreamer, or a sillyheart. And I sure don't want to know one who takes their student career seriously. I don't have a college degree. I don't even have a job. But I know a good kid when I see one. Because they're ALL good kids, until dried-out, brain-dead skags like you drag them down and convince them they're no good. You so much as scowl at my niece, or any other kid in this school, and I hear about it, and I'm coming looking for you! Take this quarter, go downtown, and have a rat gnaw that thing off your face! Good day to you, madam." - John Candy in Uncle Buck

Fuck Yes.

Also, "As you wish." Princess Bride. Well, pretty much anything from that movie is amazing.

Tommy Boy has some amazing ones, but I think the "I called earlier..." exchange between Farley & Spade is fantastic.

Did I catch a niner in there?

"Where was ya, Wang? We was worried."

One of my all-time favorites, from The Last of the Mohicans:

Duncan: "There is a war on - how is it you are heading west?"
Hawkeye: "Well, we kinda face to the north, then real sudden-like turn left."

And another, used frequently in conversations between me and Mrs. Bistro, from Catch Me If You Can:

Frank: "Dr. Harris, do you concur?"
Dr. Harris: "Concur with what, sir?"
Frank: "With what Dr. Ashland just said. Do you concur?"
Dr. Harris: "Um... Well, it was a bicycle accident. The boy told us..."
Frank: "So you concur?"
Dr. Harris: "Concur?"
Dr. Ashland: "I think we should take an X-ray, then stitch him up and put him in a walking cast."
Frank: "Very good Dr. Ashland, very good. Well, you don't seem to have much need for me. Carry on."
Frank leaves
Dr. Harris: "I blew it, didn't I? Why didn't I concur?!"

Of course, when we use it, it's shortened to just "Do you concur?" "Damnit! Why didn't I concur?!"

Brian Fantana: They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.


And lastly, from Office Space:

Peter Gibbons: I wouldn't say I've been *missing* it, Bob.

Ken: How'd your date go?
Ray: My date involved two instances of extreme violence, one instance of her hand on my cock and my finger up her thing which lasted all too briefly - and then I was away - , one instance of me stealing five grams of very high-quality cocaine and one instance of me blinding a poofy little skinhead: so all in all... my evening pretty much balanced out, fine.

Johnny: And what is it what goes on in this postmodern gas chamber?
Brian: Nothing. It's empty.
Johnny: So what is it you guard, then?
Brian: Space.
Johnny: You're guarding space? That's stupid, isn't it? Because someone could break in there and steal all the fuckin' space and you wouldn't know it's gone, would you?
Brian: Good point.

Louise: How did you get here?
Johnny: Well, basically, there was this little dot, right? And the dot went bang and the bang expanded. Energy formed into matter, matter cooled, matter lived, the amoeba to fish, to fish to fowl, to fowl to frog, to frog to mammal, the mammal to monkey, to monkey to man, amo amas amat, quid pro quo, memento mori, ad infinitum, sprinkle on a little bit of grated cheese and leave under the grill till Doomsday.
---
Louise: So what happened, were you bored in Manchester?
Johnny: Was I bored? No, I wasn't fuckin' bored. I'm never bored. That's the trouble with everybody - you're all so bored. You've had nature explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the living body explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the universe explained to you and you're bored with it, so now you want cheap thrills and, like, plenty of them, and it doesn't matter how tawdry or vacuous they are as long as it's new as long as it's new as long as it flashes and fuckin' bleeps in forty fuckin' different colors.

I've just noticed a pattern; before he was brain injured and then--much later--died, my brother and I used to quote movies to each other all the time and all of the quotes I've posted above, from Biloxi Blues, Princess Bride, Repo Man, etc. are from back then. Here's another:

Well, let's see: First the earth cooled. And, then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died, and they turned into oil. And, then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And, Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it, he took her best summer dress out of the closet, and put it on, and went to town. ----- Airplane II

lived in such a tiny house... After a while, he was mostly pissed because I hung around the cabstand. He knew what went on there. Every once in a while I'd have to take a beating. But by then, I didn't care. The way I saw it... everybody takes a beating sometime."

understand, but I was part of something... I belonged. I was treated like a grown-up"

Goodfellas is ridiculously qotable, especially those first ten minutes.

How about Captain Spaudling from Rob Zombie's first two movies?

"Goddamn motherfucker got blood all over my best clown suit!"

"Baby, you getten a good ride tonight! You're gonna have to pay me!"

"Don't you ever turn your back on a fucking clown when he's talking to you!"

So many good ones, Sid Haig is incredible in those movies.

'America, fuck yeah!!!'
Team America

'Don't pay anybody in advance. And don't ride in anything with a Capissen 38 engine, they fall right out of the sky.'

'Boy, it sure would be nice if we had some grenades, don't you think?'

'I am a leaf on the wind - watch how I soar.'

'Goin' on a year now I ain't had nothin' twixt my nethers weren't run on batteries!'

(yeah, I rewatched Serenity the other day. Are there any bad lines in that movie?)

"Up your butt, Jobu." followed by "Hey bartender, Jobu needs a refill!" - Major League

Dozens of lines from The Big Lebowski with a special nod to "Fuckin' eight year olds, Dude." The delivery of that line is a study in comedic timing and rhythm. Just brilliant.

Answering the other side of the question. Surely 'Housten, we have a problem' doesn't count as a great MOVIE quote as it was famous long before the movie came out and the movie has nothing to do with its importance.
A great movie quote should be great because it sums up the movie or character in some way, like 'Here's looking at you kid'.

I haven't watched the video, so I probably will be overlapping some:

Lonestar:
Mickey: Think her family's gonna be okay that you're a white guy?
Cliff: They think any woman over 30 who isn't married is a lesbian. She figures, they'll be so relieved that I'm a man...
Mickey: Yeah, it's always heartwarming to see a prejudice defeated by a deeper prejudice.

Philadelphia Story:
"Sometimes, for your own sake, Red, I think you should've stuck to me longer." "I thought it was for life, but the nice judge gave me a full pardon." "Aaah, that's the old redhead. No bitterness, no recrimination, just a good swift left to the jaw."
and
"I thought all writers drank to excess and beat their wives. You know one time I secretly wanted to be a writer."

Murder by Death
"How do I look so young? Quite simple. A complete vegetable diet, twelve hours sleep a night, and *lots* and *lots* of makeup."

Serenity:
"Doctor, I'm takin' your sister under my protection here. If anything happens to her, anything at all, I swear to you, I will get very choked up. Honestly, there could be tears."

Fifth Element:
"I don't like warriors. Too narrow-minded, no subtlety. And worse, they fight for hopeless causes. Honor? Huh! Honor's killed millions of people, it hasn't saved a single one."

My life, when it is written, will read better than it lived: Henry Fitzempress, first Plantagenett, King at twenty-one, the ablest soldier in an able time. He led men well, cared for justice when he could and ruled for thirty years a state as great as Charlemagne's. He married out of love a woman out of legend. Not in Alexandria or Rome or Camelot has their been such a Queen. She bore him many children.... But no sons. King Henry had no sons. He had three whiskered things, but he disowned them. YOU ARE NOT MINE! Were not connected!I DENY YOU! None of you will get my Kingdom I leave you nothing and I wish you plague, may all your children breach and die!

"I long to rule the earth as he the sky/ We really know our worth, the sun and I." and "Maybe I'll just stand here and bleed at you." from Brick.

Any line the Max Fischer Players ever delivered could be on this list.

High Fidelity- Rob talking about how Laura has "the best all-time laugh in the history of all time laughs" was too sincere not to make me love him even more.

As for delivery, "I love him sooooo muuuuuuuuuch!!!!" from Raising Arizona just cracked my shit up.

There are so many.
