Movie Lines You Quote in Everyday Life (Sometimes to Others' Confusion)

You call this abuse??

 

AN provided many great quotes. I really like the scene at the beginning were the old general (GD Spradlin) tells Willard about the mission. He questions the Captain about his bandaged hand. Willard replies that he got hurt "fishing while on R&R." Me & my brother always liked that. Back in the bad old days, If one of us showed up with a black eye or a dented up truck, "man, how did that happen?" The inevitable reply was "fishing while on R&R"....

 

"You Look Like S---!"

 

"LET GO! Stop Trying to Hold Back the Hands of the Clock-IT'LL TEAR YOUR ARMS OUT!"-Elliot Gould in "Getting Straight" in the final scene where the Students are Rioting in the School his character Harry Stone is working in,as a Professor!

 

I meant to do that.

 

Is it safe?

 

From Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure:

"You ditched Napoleon?" Bill gasps through the chain link fence. "Do you realize you have stranded one of Europe’s greatest leaders in San Dimas?" Ted asks. "He was a dick!" Deacon explains.

Yesterday, a crazy sum beach in an Escalade changes lanes while texting and gives poor old Chili about two inches of clearance. Regaining her composure, Mrs. Chili asks why the man would do such a dangerous thing. I replied, "He was a dick!"

 

My wife and I love to quote Jean Reno from RONIN when he says 'the RUSSIANS made it!'. Helps if you've seen the film, but to give you some background, he says this when having a brainwave. See the film, especially if you love fast cars and one of De Niro's last really good roles.

 

"My advice to you is to start drinking heavily."

 

"It's true, it's true!" From Blazing Saddles, but of course I pronounce it with the spot on German accent!

"Now I think you've had enough...bitch." - Happy Gilmore

"Remind you of anything?" - Elvira: Mistress of the Dark

"Soon you'll be kissing me on my full, red lips!" Son of Paleface

"Jews For Jesus?" Airplane!

Any plenty more from that movie, especially picking the wrong week to stop sniffing glue. Gah, I could go on for hours with this topic...

 

1) No way I can join y'all, "I'm in Dutch with the wife". Last 6 words from Raising Arizona

2) It would sound better recorded in "Dubly?" Always met with blank stares or, "you mean Dolby don't you?"

3) Whenever I get the chance, "Does yours go up to 11? Mine goes up to 11". See "2" above

 

I don' drink alcohol but, a lot of times, when a waitress asked what we wanted, I raised my hand to reply: "vodka martini. Shaken, not stirred", declaimed in the most Bond-esque way possible.
Of course no one gets the joke and I promptly rectify my order and ask for some water

Another recurring one in this period, whenever somebody asks me where I'm going for the holidays, the answer is: "If I let you know where I'm going, I won't be on holiday" (from Mission Impossible 2)

 

"Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead."

I think I should say that more. It's from Barfly.

 

Whenever someone says they like something in my best French accent..

That's what I like little things hitting each other.

 

I have found myself often saying, when my wife doesn't answer what I say:
"Do you not agree with that which I am saying to you.", from "UP".

 

*whispering*
"We thought you was a toad."

 

I don't want to meet someone who shares my interests. I hate my interests. - Ghost World

 

Whenever my travel is slowed by a funeral procession:

"If they'd-a cremated the sum bitch I'd be kicking that Mr. Bandit's ass around the moon by now." (Buford T. Justice)

I generally try not to say that one out loud.

 

Lighten up, Francis.

 

"That'll do, pig. That'll do."
We were paying for out groceries awhile ago and for some reason I said that to my wife as she was putting stuff on the conveyer. The checker stopped, processed it, and smiled. It took my wife a little longer.

I've also said 'cute as a pail full of kittens' a few times

 

I related this in a Beatles thread: I have a friend who knows more about the Beatles than I ever will. I've got him once with "alright, Glynnis, we're off again.'
This time, we were at his house and I think he was trying to burn a disc for me before we sat down to dinner and it wasn't working for him. I said 'You've failed, jeweler.' It took him a second and then he smiled this huge grin. His wife was standing there and saw the whole thing and said 'you just said something Beatles related didn't you?'

 

Lots of Ghostbusters quotes:

Where do these stairs go?
Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!
Yes, it's true. This man has no d***.
MotherPussBucket
What about the Twinkie?
Listen! You smell something?
No human being would stack books like this.
They hate this. (Whenever I am in a room with a piano)

 

This one can't be used in polite company, but I still want to add it to my repertoire:

 

I use these frequently.

• "Brain and brain - what is brain?" - Star Trek (Spock's Brain)
• "They mostly come at night...mostly." - Aliens
• "That's it, man! Game over, man, game over!" - Aliens
• "Ah'll keel yeeeeeewwwww!" - The Thing
• "You'll put your eye out, kid." - A Christmas Story
• "Heeyyyy, kiiiiid!" - A Christmas Story
• "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son." - Animal House
• "People - they're the worst." - Seinfeld

 

Love that. There are times I'll paraphrase a line from Help! : "With a ring (or whatever object is the subject of conversation) like that I could, (Dare I say it?) rule the world!"
