Guides | June 12, 2009 | Comments (261)


There are a number of organizations that have ranked the Top 100 Movie Quotes of All Time, most notably AFI. The other day, Liquid Generation even put together a video including 100 Great Quotes in 200 Seconds. But whenever you check these Great Quote Lists, they inevitably tend to include the same iconic quotes from Rocky or Casablanca or Titanic, etc. Most of them have been so overused and parodied in pop culture they’ve become quote clichés. They are the quotes your great uncle reels off at family outings in order to sound contemporary. He’s not. And most of those quotes have had their day and should be retired.

So, the other day, our readers amassed an incredible list of great movie quotes rarely, if ever, included on lists that count down the 100 Best Quotes of All Time. These aren’t those quotes — they’re the ones you throw back and forth at each other over drinks. The ones you work into conversations. The ones that have become part of the running jokes in your lives.

Fucking awesome. Flat-out awesome. Nice job folks...

Posted by: Skitz at June 12, 2009 2:14 PM

Yay! Squishy quote!

God I love this list. We have awesome taste, guys. I need to use "Thundercunt" more often.

Posted by: figgy at June 12, 2009 2:18 PM

We're gonna need a bigger boat. Come on that's good stuff.

Posted by: blah blah blah at June 12, 2009 2:22 PM

Nice! I'm happy in a bad place.

Posted by: admin at June 12, 2009 2:25 PM

YES. Thank you.

Posted by: Nicole at June 12, 2009 2:27 PM

So phenomenal.

Wish I had pitched in one serious omission from this list in:
"You are the vulgarian, you fuck!" - A Fish Called Wanda

Posted by: branded at June 12, 2009 2:31 PM

Really? That's your number one? Number 19 is better than that. Though that could just be because it's David Hyde Pierce delivering possibly David Wain's favorite line ever.

Posted by: ChristianH at June 12, 2009 2:32 PM

Wait, y'all picked THAT from Ghost World over "Some people are okay, mostly I just want to poison everyone."? I use that far more often. It was my default away message when I still used AIM.

You think you know a website…

Posted by: Genny (actually Rusty now) at June 12, 2009 2:33 PM

This list is epically amazing BUT sadly missing some Randal Graves. And if we're going Wet Hot quotes, my far preferred is "I want you inside me... Oh, hey what's up, from before." Damn work, preventing me from joining in the thread when it happened.

Posted by: Courtney at June 12, 2009 2:34 PM

We rock.

Posted by: Cindy at June 12, 2009 2:35 PM

Blast. I was hoping for "Always bet on black."

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at June 12, 2009 2:40 PM

Ah, that's awesome. I think my favorite from Heathers will always be, "If you were happy every day of your life, you wouldn't be human, you'd be a game show host."

Posted by: lizzieborden at June 12, 2009 2:44 PM

I do not think people give Galaxy Quest enough credit.
Tony Shalbouh is in it for cris sakes!

Posted by: badalamenti at June 12, 2009 2:45 PM

That's funny, Rusty... I always use "I can't relate to 99% of humanity."

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at June 12, 2009 2:53 PM

You think you know a website…

I know! And really, if one HAD to pick one great quote from Clue, one repeated over and over again, you chose that one? Come on, "flames....on the side of my face"? Or "I'm going home to sleep with my wife"? Singing Telegram? Really?

Posted by: Vermillion at June 12, 2009 3:00 PM

I love this list.

(and not just because a few of the quotes I suggested are on it)

Posted by: grace b at June 12, 2009 3:03 PM

Two of my favorites-

Barcelona:

Spanish Girl in bar "I couldn't live in the US. It's so violent, every year all those people get shot."

Chris Eigeman character replies "That doesn't mean we're more violent, we're just a better shot."

Mystery Men:

William H. Macy character "We're on a blind date with destiny and she just ordered the lobster."

Posted by: amanda47 at June 12, 2009 3:07 PM

Yay! One of my quotes made it! I know, mine is a pathetic existence. But now it's a happy one.


I love that there are far more people than I ever would have imagined who manage to exploit movie quotes.

Posted by: Eyvi at June 12, 2009 3:07 PM

I'm gonna ave to agree with Genny. That line has become my go to statement for explaining pretty much any situation involving people.

Also, I totally named my fish "Squishy". And he is mine, he is my Squishy.

Posted by: Jeremy Feist at June 12, 2009 3:08 PM

Not a single FUCKING quote from Caddyshack!?!?

What is wrong with you people?

"Hey everybody, we're all gonna get laid!"

" So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice. "

"This crowd has gone deadly silent, a Cinderella story outta nowhere. Former greenskeeper and now about to become the masters champion. "

"I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them. "

"Whoa, did somebody step on a duck? "

"I smell varmint poontang. And the only good varmint poontang is dead varmint poontang, I think. "

Posted by: Some Guy at June 12, 2009 3:13 PM

Great list! Some great Cusack ones in there, but I gotta say, my favorite Grosse Pointe Blank quote is, "I'm standing where my, uh, living room was and it's not here because my house is gone and it's an Ultimart! You can never go home again, Oatman... but I guess you can shop there."

And my favorite exchange from Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang has got to be:

Perry: Go. Sleep badly. Any questions, hesitate to call.
Harry: Bad.
Perry: Excuse me?
Harry: Sleep bad. Otherwise it makes it seem like the mechanism that allows you to sleep...
Perry: What, fuckhead? Who taught you grammar? Badly's an adverb. Get out. Vanish.

Posted by: Melissa at June 12, 2009 3:17 PM

Oh my god, I was in such a bad mood and this totally made my day.

And awesomely enough, not only were TheJodester and I discussing The Wolf from Pulp Fiction at our Khyber lunch this afternoon, but she totally quoted #25. She also quoted this classic from Clueless: "I have a 45 and a shovel. I doubt anyone will miss you."

Posted by: Julie at June 12, 2009 3:19 PM

I'm with Vermillion. I use "Flames . . . On the side of my face" at least once a day.

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at June 12, 2009 3:25 PM

Oh, Whiskey Baby Ninja Star, I needed that!!!!

Posted by: dammitjanet at June 12, 2009 3:27 PM

I speak in movie quotes most of the time, so me quoting a few different films in one lunch isn't out of the ordinary.

Wayne's World quote of the day:
'Ribbed for her pleasure. Eeeeeeeeww.'

Posted by: thejodester at June 12, 2009 3:27 PM

I am ashamed that there are many on this list that I am unfamiliar with.

Posted by: Snath at June 12, 2009 3:27 PM

Julie, have I ever mentioned how insanely jealous I am that you can go to the bar for lunch?

Posted by: lizzieborden at June 12, 2009 3:29 PM

I know! And really, if one HAD to pick one great quote from Clue, one repeated over and over again, you chose that one? Come on, "flames....on the side of my face"? Or "I'm going home to sleep with my wife"? Singing Telegram? Really?

Posted by: Vermillion at June 12, 2009 3:00 PM

Concur. I love that "I'm going home to sleep with my wife" line. Just love it.

Posted by: Forbiddendonut at June 12, 2009 3:33 PM

Oh, Whiskey Baby Ninja Star, I needed that!!!!

Oh, how about, "Gee, Ricky, I'm real sorry your mom blew up."

"I would proudly partake of your pecan piiiiiiie."

*in tears* "I love him so muuuuuuuuuch." and "Get away from that baby, you warthog!"

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

"She is startin' to damage my calm."

"Goddamnit I'm tired.....lets face it, everything below the waist is KAPUT!"

and, finally, the most awesome string of curse words ever strung together....

Oh! Fuck wank bugger shitting arse head and hole!

Posted by: dammitjanet at June 12, 2009 3:34 PM

Julie, Mr. Lower mutters that Clueless line whenever one of my daughters gets within 10 feet of a boy. I'm sure I'll be hearing it a lot in the coming years. He'll be so proud that I contributed the Han Solo line. I get to pick the movie Saturday night. Ha! Hangover 1, Terminator zip.

Posted by: slower lower at June 12, 2009 3:35 PM

SEXUAL CHOCOLATE!!

*drops mic

Posted by: jM at June 12, 2009 3:38 PM

One of my favs that's not on the list, from Don't Tell Mom, the Babysitter's Dead'

Rose Lindsey: Sue Ellen, have you ever had a 48 hour orgasm?

Sue Ellen (innocently): No, I've never been to Santa Barbara.

Posted by: thejodester at June 12, 2009 3:44 PM

Awesome list. But Squishy should've been in the Top 10!

Posted by: Sofía at June 12, 2009 3:46 PM

Or "The dishes are DONE."

Posted by: jM at June 12, 2009 3:47 PM

All I can say is it's about damn time someone included Big Lebowski quotes. It truly is one of the greatest movies of all time, and fuck the academy for not giving Jeff Bridges and John Goodman Oscars!

Posted by: George at June 12, 2009 3:49 PM

I know! And really, if one HAD to pick one great quote from Clue, one repeated over and over again, you chose that one? Come on, "flames....on the side of my face"? Or "I'm going home to sleep with my wife"? Singing Telegram? Really?

My favorite from Clue is, "Is that what we ate?!"

Posted by: Kolby at June 12, 2009 3:50 PM

I use the "Flames" Clue quote the most, followed by "I'm going home to sleep with my wife." Fuck me in my breakfast toast, I love Michael McKean.

Posted by: Julie at June 12, 2009 3:55 PM

Completely off topic. I went awol for like 3 weeks after the naming of admin's baby comment diversion.

Can someone fill me in on what name won?

Posted by: "luker" the barbarian at June 12, 2009 3:57 PM

Love the list. I agree, most of these lists elsewhere don't speak to me like these do. They lost their impact somewhere along the way.

Now for my very favorite Better Off Dead quote:

"Now that's a real shame when folks be throwin' away a perfectly good white boy like that."

Posted by: logar at June 12, 2009 3:59 PM

Sorry to be the dick here, but the quote from The Way of the Gun is, in fact:

"Shut that cunt's mouth or I'll come over there and fuckstart her head."

Regardless, a fucking great quote.

Posted by: Sean at June 12, 2009 4:00 PM

56. “”Bratwurst? Aren’t we the optimist?”.” — 10 Things I Hate About You

LOVE. Between this and 'Drop Dead Gorgeous' I think Alison Janney might be my favorite ever.

Posted by: Jeni at June 12, 2009 4:02 PM

Who suggested #69? Because that's one of my favorite movie quotes EVER and I use it all the time and no one EVER knows where it's from. I want to give whoever nominated that gem a big, wet, sloppy kiss all over their face.

Also, I guess these had to be movie quotes? Because I also quote liberally from "A Charlie Brown Christmas."

"All I want is what I have coming to me. All I want is my fair share."

Posted by: jimbob at June 12, 2009 4:06 PM

Wow, I recognize at least half of those quotes. Yay! I have personally used the "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills" line with my friends.

Clueless deserves a few mentions up here, though, including
"You're a virgin...who can't drive."

"Girlie, as far as you're concerned, I am the messiah of the DMV."

Posted by: Brie at June 12, 2009 4:11 PM

This list made my day twenty times better. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Posted by: Marcela at June 12, 2009 4:13 PM

Who suggested #69?

I often do. But not this time.

Posted by: jM at June 12, 2009 4:15 PM

Ah jM, you gorgeous stack of pancakes.

Posted by: Julie at June 12, 2009 4:17 PM

NOTHING from Animal House? My choices:
" You fucked up. You trusted us." Eric 'Otter' Stratton
"You guys playin' cards?" Kent 'Flounder' Dorfman
" Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life son." Dean Vernon Wormer

Posted by: jaf at June 12, 2009 4:17 PM

Logar, you reminded me of this quote from Men at Work. I will forever love Keith David for this.

There are several sacred things in this world that you don't ever mess with. One of them happens to be another man's fries. Now, you remember that, and you will live a long and healthy life.

Posted by: Brie at June 12, 2009 4:17 PM

Love that there's a Bring it On quote, but I'd suggest the following:

Torrance: Courtney, this isn't a democracy, it's a cheerocracy. I'm sorry, I'm overruling you.
Courtney: You are being a cheertator, Torrance, and a pain in my ass!

Posted by: whatBENwatches at June 12, 2009 4:32 PM

jimbob, I LOVE that movie, and that's my favorite quote. Sally's just awesome.

Posted by: figgy at June 12, 2009 4:38 PM

How about "NOT THE BEEES! NOT THE BEEEEEEES! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

I do that one all the time.

Posted by: figgy at June 12, 2009 4:40 PM

Just want to say to TPTB that in my experience here I don't think 'Jib has ever been more funner than it is now. Lists like this and the funny and imaginative Diversions and the return of EE with figgylicious at the helm, not even to mention the reviews ... y'all have made me a 'Jibaddict, I spend hours a day here, I mainline this site.

I hope you're proud.

My favorite quote from "Splash":

Freddie: People fall in love every day, huh? Is that what you said?

Allen: Yeah.

Freddie: Yeah? Well, that's a crock. It doesn't work that way. Look, do you realize how happy you were with her? That is, of course, when you weren't driving yourself crazy. Every day? Come on. Some people will never BE that happy. I'LL never be that happy. What am I talking to you for? You don't know anything.

John Candy's finest hour.

-Ralphie

Posted by: Ralphie at June 12, 2009 4:46 PM

I'm slightly emabarassed to admit this, but two of my (maybe 5 total) quotes made it on the list...in the top 20 even, and I am kind of proud of that!

Posted by: ami at June 12, 2009 4:48 PM

One I wish was included was from... yes, Forest Gump:

Lieutenant Dan got me invested in some kind of fruit company. So then I got a call from him, saying we don't have to worry about money no more. And I said, that's good! One less thing."

It'll never have made it, a shit-ton of people here hate the piss out of Forest Gump. To that I say, do shut the fuck up.

Posted by: George at June 12, 2009 4:53 PM

Men should be like tissues - soft, strong, and disposable.

Or

How many husbands have you had?
Mine or other women's?

Madeline Kahn was genius in that part. (As always.)

Posted by: pinkcheese at June 12, 2009 4:57 PM

I was glad to see Drop Dead Gorgeous made the list, but I am a little more partial to the, "They'll never let you perform naked I asked." And while I hate Super Troopers, I am surprised not one quote from that movie made it, there are, after all, a few funny ones, MEOW!

Posted by: lawyergirl06 at June 12, 2009 5:04 PM

Or, of course, I wish I was a loofah. Stripes.

Posted by: lawyergirl06 at June 12, 2009 5:05 PM

I may be incorrect. I may be correct and someone may have already pointed this out. Also, I may be a finicky douche for pointing this out, but I think Secretary is misquoted. I believe it's "soil" instead of "earth."

Posted by: natalia Rodas at June 12, 2009 5:06 PM

The most quotable movie to me ever is Heartbreak Ridge. Gunny Highway had some of the best lines ever put on film.

"Why don't I just nail ya in the kiester then. I'll send you home with that just pumped the neighbor's cat look on your face."

"Get that contriband stogie outta my face, or I'll shove it so far up your ass you'll have to set fire to your nose to smoke it."

and, my personal fave,

"It means: Be advised. I'm mean, nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I can put a round in a flea's ass at 200 meters. So why don't you go hump somebody else's leg, mutt face, before I push yours in."

Posted by: John Denver's Wingman at June 12, 2009 5:12 PM

Delurking to applaud loudly and 'fess up that many, MANY of these are a part of my everyday language.

Only possible omission is "Scoop of vanilla, scoop of chocolate. Don't waste my time" to be used when someone asks what she or he thinks is a difficult question though it isn't.

I assume no one here needs the source.

Posted by: El L Cool J at June 12, 2009 5:30 PM

Excellent list! Yay, I helped! (I'm such a dork)

The best thing about a list like this is that it makes me want to rewatch so many of these movies. I'm thinking I need to watch Better Off Dead sometime this weekend.

Posted by: Melissa at June 12, 2009 5:40 PM

The quote that I use on a regular basis?:

"And that's when my drinking problem started" from Airplane!, because I regularly manage to dump beverage all down the front of me instead of actually drinking it.

I'm sad that although several movies made it more than once, Airplane! didn't get a single quote up.

Posted by: Claire at June 12, 2009 5:43 PM

Yay! You used one of my quotes!

And yes, I do have a small, sad life. Why do you ask?

Posted by: rlr260 at June 12, 2009 5:51 PM

HOWEVER ... still no love for "Naked"? Humph. OK, this merits a repeat:

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.

,TCFKAB - this is my favorite exchange from Naked:

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. So whatever else you can say about me, I'm not fuckin' bored.

Sorry to be the dick here, but the quote from The Way of the Gun is, in fact:

Regardless, a fucking great quote.

Thank you!! Thank you!! I posted the quote yesterday kind of right, "Shut that cunts mouth before I come over there and fuckstart her head." and then someone else put the girlfriend one...

Marriage is an important part of getting ahead: lets people know you're not a homo; married guy seems more stable; people see the ring, they think at least somebody can stand the son of a bitch; ladies see the ring, they know immediately you must have some cash or your cock must work. - The Departed

I am so happy that someone remembered "I want my two dollars!" Seriously, that quote makes my day. Sometimes I'll say it to friends and they won't get it and I'll wonder why I'm friends with them. I made two girl friends of mine sit down Better Off Dead with me and watch it during our freshman year and while I was cracking up ("Do you know the street value of this mountain!?!" Snarf) they just stared blankly. I knew I was home at Pajiba when I found out how many people loved that movie.

And "The swan ate my baby!" is made even more beautiful when Alley cries: "Get up baby, we gotta go to state!"

Lovely.

I dunno Rhyme, you seem like the type that would be way less into claymation singing hamburgers and botched suicide attempts that end in hilarious results and more into listening to Plain White Tees while drinking PBR ironically.

But if you're not a douche and like reeeeally off-beat humor (and skiing competitions), you'll probably enjoy it.

-- Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw. Do I look like Mother Theresa?

To preface this list as a bunch of quotable and memorable lines . . . I call horseshit.

Granted, I couldn't do much better without a month away from work, IMDB.com, unlimited conversations with old friends, yesterday's anger, today's apathy, your mom's undies, a family mind distorterererer, and a Movie Theater Bag of Skittles. Seems like many of these could be replaced by actual quotable lines. For instance:

As jM said before, "Sexual Chocolate!" (with accompanied mic drop) is WAAAAAYYYYY more quotable . . . along with every other goddamned Coming to America line!!! Really?! . . . than the "velvet" line". Fucking honkies. As the Belly King once told Quaid, "Oooopen your miiiiiind,".

I recognized only about 10 of these. But that's because the others aren't that good. There's a reason that the other, more famous quotes are still remembered. They're classics, and the classics never die. I believe the word used was "iconic". So they'll be around for a long time, sorry. Also, a lot of these new quotes contain f-bombs or offensive language of some kind. If they didn't, most of you people probably wouldn't like them.

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

I've seen about 7 of those postings, and I'm pretty sure the first movie to use that quote was one of me and my Dad's favorite movies, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. If you haven't seen it yet, you're missing out on Bogart's best work ever, including Casablanca. Hell, the whole movie's filled with gems:

"Never known a prospector who died rich."

"So... it's the first option, isn't it."

"I bet you $105,000 dollars you're gonna fall asleep before I do."

I don't understand the decision to miss out the punchlines.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang: "She's been fucked more times than she's had hot meals"
"Yeah, I heard that. It was neck and neck and then she skipped lunch."

And the quote from "Lock Stock" needs to be a lot longer:
"Yeah, little bit of pain never hurt anybody. If you know what I mean. Also, I think knives are a good idea. Big, fuck-off shiny ones. Ones that look like they could skin a crocodile. Knives are good, because they don't make any noise, and the less noise they make, the more likely we are to use them. Shit 'em right up. Makes it look like we're serious. Guns for show, knives for a pro."
"I'm not sure what's more worrying. The job or your past."

Though I'd have preferred the following from "Lock Stock":
"Shotguns? What, like guns that fire a shot?"

Lovely List. Just to flesh out--someone mentioned a bit of this on the post-that-started-it-all, and because it's the best thing anybody (who was John Cusak) ever said in a movie, here it is in its full astounding glory:

"I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career I don't want to do that."
From the movie "Say Anything."

Posted by: Lynne at June 14, 2009 1:11 PM

Also, a lot of these new quotes contain f-bombs or offensive language of some kind.

You know, this is something I just do not get. First of all - f-bomb? You people (if you said it, I can say it back) equate a harmless Anglo-Saxon word for sexual congress with a destructive, murderous device? Seriously?
And secondly, 'offensive language'. What utter bollocks! Language in and of itself cannot be offensive, any more than art can. People can be offended, but that's their choice. All language has it's use and it's value. If 'fuck' and 'cunt' and so forth offend you, you're just not thinking hard enough.....

Posted by: tarn at June 14, 2009 2:18 PM

I found it pretty funny how these were framed in terms of "best of all time", when it's obviously pretty specific to a group of friends in a place in a time (for instance I'll bet this applies far more strongly to people between 28 and 32 who went to college in north america than any other group) All power to you - qualifiers are boring, besides which they're fascist.

I guess I can forgive you for not having my favorite quote, it's not like Shark Attack 3: Megalodon is a much watched film. This quote is the only reason I even downloaded and watched the film.

When leading lady says she is tired after seeing people eaten by prehistoric shark, the leading man replies.

"Yeah, me too. But you know I'm really wired. What do you say I... take you home and eat your pussy. "

"You people" meaning you people who like these quotes. Simple enough for ya? And if I am offended by these quotes with the over-saturated offensive language, then I am offended. So sue me. I hear this crap, I don't get offended until it gets over-used to the point where the writers or comedians have nothing to say EXCEPT f-bombs and such. Then it's no longer funny, except to "you people". Again, simple enough for ya? ;^p By the way, "fuck" and "cunt" do offend me, used over and over and over again, and they offend me when said in front of my two young daughters. Maybe when or if you have children, you might understand. On the other hand, maybe you should NOT have children.

@ closeencounter, I believe the offense taken on this end was at the phrase "you people" itself. It implies that you believe the rest of us are somehow second-class citizens because we choose to use words that some find offensive.

I also believe that the implication statement that those who choose to use such words are bad people and bad parents *may* have been a misstep on your part.

@ Line S,

I love that line in Shark Attack 3, too! Especially knowing that the dubbed-safe-for-closeencounter version says:
"hows about we go and watch 'I love Lucy'?"

(I hereby propose that from now on, we use NSCE instead of NSFW.....)

I've never actually seen the film though - just that part, because John Barrowman tells that story any chance he gets... ;-) (And he says he adlibbed the 'pussy' version).

@ Closeencounter: Okay. First time on this site, and *I* am offended by your attitude. I have two daughters and I have taught them that swearing is just words and that words only have the power that YOU give them. If you give them the power to offend you, then more fool you! If you DECIDE to take offense at certain words (like many people have at your use of the phrase "you people" which is almost exclusively used in the derogatory sense) then that is YOUR issue and you shouldn't be visiting sites like this if you know such things offend you. And don't infer anyone's right/qualifications to be a parent based on your own ignorant, narrow-minded perspective please. I would counter that your narrow-mindedness renders you an unfit parent, but that would make me *almost* as ignorant as you.

From Coming To America "Fuck you, Fuck you, and Fuck you, Who's Next?"

From The Jerk, "He hates these cans! Stay away from the cans!!!"

From Spaceballs, "Evil will always triumph over good, because good is dumb."

Also from Spaceballs, "We ain't found shit!!!"

And one more from Spaceballs (Maybe the most quotable movie ever) "I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes!"

Nice list, for films that came out in the last 25- 30 years... What about Casablanca? It is referenced AND quoted all the time!

"Round up all of the Usual Suspects." "We'll always have Paris."(inspiration for other films!)

Rick: Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Captain Renault: How extravagant you are, throwing away women like that. Some day they may be scarce. (not as well known, but it goes with the quote from Better Off Dead)

And how can you forget:
Rick: Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine.

I can't leave without pointing out the final line of Crash Davis' soliloquy: "and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days."

Posted by: steve at June 15, 2009 5:05 PM

"I'm baaack". Now that's a classic quote. The phrase I used, "you people" refers to everyone here reading this page, including me. So, I'm a "you people" too. Nothing racist, or sexist, or "holier-than-thou" (or superior-than-thou) about it. It's not meant to be derogatory in the slightest, unless you take it that way, in which case I'm sorry you were offended. Please replace "people" with "folks". "Thinning the gene pool" was an over-reaction too. Sorry. I get hit with snarkiness, I respond in kind. And please don't judge my parental skills. You don't know me and I don't know you. My kids will know the difference between good and bad, right and wrong, thanks to their mom and me. Basically, I'm here to say most of these quotes will never replace the originals. They just aren't good enough.

Posted by: closeencounter at June 15, 2009 7:31 PM

I know this is way late, but I wanted to add one more...This is not even from a movie, but I think it's so good that I had to put it out there. It is from one of the best tv shows, ever--"The Wire." I think it was Stringer Bell that asked one of his drug dealing "students" in class what the word "subtle" meant and their response? "Lean back like a mug." Ohhhhhhhhhh so very brilliant and classic!!! Loved that show.

Posted by: ChaCha at June 15, 2009 8:48 PM

Oh and just for clarification purposes, just in case. "Mug" in this case is short for or slang for "motherfucker." A fav word over here at pajibans.

I like all those old fogie lists that mention the best quotes ever, which - ahem - do not become dated because of overuse. "Plastics" is still priceless, as is "I'm shocked, SHOCKED, to find that gambling is going on in here!"

I do understand film fans wanting to freshen up the conversation a bit by ditching the most famous lines for newer quotes, but I think it's throwing the baby out with the bathwater when movies like Casablanca and The Graduate (etc) get tossed completely because one of their lines is now too familiar. So here's a list of less famous lines from "famous line" movies, which explains why the movies are legendary to begin with. And a few newer classic lines for good measure:

THE GRADUATE:
- "Oh no, Mrs. Robinson, I find you attractive, I do. I think you're the most attractive of all my parents' friends."
- "'Ben, this whole thing sounds kind of half baked.' 'Oh no, it's completely baked. It's a decision I've made."
- "Good evening, Mr. Gladstone."

THE GODFATHER:
- "It's not personal. It's strictly business."
- "Luca Brazzi sleeps with the fishes."
- "You gotta get up close and Bada Bing! blow his brains all over your ivy league suit."
- "You slap my brother around?"
- "You have to answer for Santino."

CASABLANCA:
-"Oh, he's just like any other man, only more so."
- "'You despise me, don't you Rick?' 'If I gave you any thought I suppose I would."
- "There are certain sections of New York that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade."
- "Did you leave me for Lazlo or were there others in between. Or aren't you the kind that tells?
- "''This gun is aimed right at your heart.' 'That is my least vunerable spot.'"
- "Let's make it ten thousand. I'm only a poor corrupt official."

BIG NIGHT:
"You must BITE into the ASS OF LIFE!!"

TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE
- "Conscience. What a thing."
- "You gotta get up pretty early to put one over on old Fred C. Dobbs."

LAWRENCE OF ARABIA:
- "Nothing is written!"
- "My name is for my friends."
- "'Have you no fear, English?' 'My fear is my concern.' 'Truly.'"
- "NO PRISONERS!"
(Dustin, seriously, click the icon on Netflix and do yourself a favor.)

SPINAL TAP:
- "When you've loved and lost like Frank has..."
- "Hellooooo Cleveland!!"
- "It does disturb me, but I'm a professional, I'll rise above it."
- "None. None more black."
- "Come on, mime is money."
- "We played the world and elsewhere."
- "People should envy us. I envy us."
- "You can't dust for vomit."

THE QUIET MAN
- "Homeric!!"
- "There'll be no locked doors between us, Mary Kate."
- "Make way! Make way! She'll be runnin' you down with that joogernaut!!"
- "Marquis of Queensbury rules."
- "No petty fingers, if you please!"

DR. STRANGELOVE
- "You'll have to answer to the coca cola company."
- "I'm not saying we won't get our hair mussed, but I'm talking ten, twenty million dead, tops."
- "...give you such a pranging!"
- "The bomb, Dimitri. The hydrogen bomb."
- "Precious bodily fluids."

"La Publicity!!" - THE WOMEN

SOME LIKE IT HOT
"Type O!"
"The ship's in shipshape shape!"
"My toes feel like someone's barbecuing them over a slow flame."
"Where do you guys thing you're going?' 'Urbana?'"

HOBSON'S CHOICE:
"I'm going to beat the love from your body."

UNFORGIVEN:
- "Deserves got nothin to do with it."
- "I thought I was dead too til I realized I was just in Nebraska."
- "Hell of a thing killin a man. You take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have."


THE SURE THING:
- "How would you like a sexual experience so intense it could conceivably change your political views?"
- "There's a time and a place for spontaneity."
- "...and when I get out of jail, I'm thirty three years old."

SUPERMAN:
- "You were followed again (crash)...in spite of those catlike reflexes."
- "We all have our little faults. Mine's in California."

THE SUNSHINE BOYS:
- "ENTAHHH!!"
- "Bedbug!"
- "Again with the Fingah!!"

SINGING IN THE RAIN:
- "I've given an exclusive interview to every newspaper in town."
- "People!! I ain't people!!
- "No! No! No!' 'Yes! Yes! Yes!"
- "Dignity. Always dignity."

ANCHORMAN:
- "San Diego, which in German means 'whale's vagina'"
- "Anthony and Cleopatra that hurt!"

Too many more I love so I'll quit while I can. Billy Wilder quotes alone could fill a small book.

"Oh yes... Coldeman. The "d" is silent in America. It's Cole D'Isle au Man, or Cole of the Isle of Man, in France, where Armand's chateau is, Cold-e-man in Greece where Armand's work is, and finally the vulgar Coleman in Florida where Armand's home is, so actually, we don't know where we are until we hear our last name pronounced!"

Armand: Los Copa? There's nothing in Los Copa but a cemetery.
Albert: I know, that's why I'm packing light.
Armand: Oh I see, so you're going to a cemetery with your toothbrush. How Egyptian."

When leading lady says she is tired after seeing people eaten by prehistoric shark, the leading man replies.

"Yeah, me too. But you know I'm really wired. What do you say I... take you home and eat your pussy. "

Doesn't get more class than that.

I could quote from "Big Lebowski" all day:

"He treats objects like women, man."
"Hey man, there's a beverage here!"

There's one from Wedding Crashers I particularly like:
"He's so unsophisticated, he's thinks Moby Dick is a venereal disease."

No Withnail and I? You should be ashamed...

Posted by: Ange at June 22, 2009 10:05 AM

some good and many bad. Overall, this list is pretty lame. Lost credibility after I noticed you had several quotes from the same movie. And the ones you did pick were terrible. Be more creative when making a list and don't get lazy by taking several quotes from one Mel Brooks film and every other from Spinal Tap. Expand your horizon a little. There are more films out there to choose from.

Posted by: Saint at June 22, 2009 10:09 AM

So much Python not on the list!

"I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries."

"It's just a flesh wound."

"Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

"Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you."

"Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away."

"Bring out yer dead.'

"Fuck off! We're the People's Front of Judea"

"All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"

Brian: I am NOT the Messiah!
Arthur: I say you are Lord, and I should know. I've followed a few.

"Jesus did, sir. I was hopping along, minding my own business, all of a sudden, up he comes, cures me! One minute I'm a leper with a trade, next minute my livelihood's gone. Not so much as a by-your-leave! "You're cured, mate." Bloody do-gooder. "

"I think it was "Blessed are the cheesemakers".

"Stwike him, Centuwion. Stwike him vewy wuffly!"

"I have a vewy gweat fwiend in Wome called 'Biggus Dickus'.

"Oh you'll probably get away with crucifixion."

"Where's the fetus going to gestate? You going to keep it in a box?"

"We're giving Pilate two days to dismantle the entire apparatus of the Roman Imperialist State, and if he doesn't agree immediately, we execute her."

And there's tonnes more!

Lotta good quotes, but if you're only picking 100 Quotes for teh best of all time it seems a bit odd that there are a few movies on your list with three quotes a piece. High Fidelity isn't that funny, one quote in the top 100 MAYBE but 3???

Posted by: testington at June 22, 2009 12:14 PM

War Room? I've seen that quote in top 100 lists... but I love it.

I may be wrong but as far as I can remember, Darla's original line in Fight Club was, "I want to have your abortion, Tyler." The studio hated it so much they told Fincher to change it to ANYTHING else and that's how the "grade school" line got in.

Posted by: Holly at June 22, 2009 5:42 PM

I'm so glad Clue got a mention, but as many of you had stated that probably was not the best line. one of my favs is:

"This is war Peacock! you can not make an omelet without breaking an egg, any good cook will tell you that"

"but look what happened to the cook!!"
- oh Mrs. Peacock. she makes me giggle.

I find it funny that pajiba readers throw a shit-fit for the use of the phrase "you people" and then castigate a fellow reader for daring to express an opinion on the overuse of curse words. Do words matter or don't they?

I actually don't mind the use of curse words, and many of these quotes are great. However, it's the commenters here that are inspiring this post. There is something so pathetic about people who rely on curse words to feel like they're powerful and in charge. Everyone goes through that phase in middle school; most grow out of it. I recommend growing out of it.

By the by, if this is your idea of an astute observation:
