From The Shining" Here's Johnny" From Terminator "I let him go". From The Princess Bride "you keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means" (Just a few to prime the pump... )
"A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti." The Silence of the Lambs. ( this is actually a medical joke)
"Yeah, I ain't ever done it before either, alright? I ain't starting now! Look, you brought her here, and that means that you're giving her the shot. The day that I bring an OD-ing bitch over to your house, then I give her the shot. Give her the shot." "Have you ever been on a shrimp boat?" "No, but I've been on a real big boat." "At first, I didn’t believe it. That this woman who looked as fertile as the Tennessee Valley could not bear children. But the doctor explained that her insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase."
Every A-hole knows what to do. You get a house with a 25 year roof and an indestructible Jap car. Then you put your money in an account getting three to five % and that covers your taxes. That's your fortress of solitude. It puts you at the level of FU.
Watch the clip, share it with every millennial. This is the most brilliant Hollywood line( statement) EVER for me
"...why, land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for,... because it is the only thing that lasts." Scarlet O'Hara's father from the movie "Gone With The Wind".
Can't believe none from Coming to America made it- "That boy good."
or "I got a special treat for ya' this evening, a young man that you all know as Joe the Policeman from the "What's Going Down" episode of "That's My Momma". ."
Then quit, you slimy f*cking walrus-looking piece of shiitt!!!
Get the f*ck off of my obstacle!- Get the f*ck down off of my obstacle!! Now!! Move it!!
I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world!!
I WILL MOTIVATE YOU, Private Pyle!!, even if it short-dicks every cannibal on the Congoooooo!!!"
(Ermey deserved an Oscar, IMO, sadly hell never see one.)
AND
"You'd better get your head and your ass wired together, or I WILL take a giant shiitt on you.
Now answer my question, or you'll be standing tall before the man"
And from The Duke:
"It isn't always being fast or even accurate that counts. It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing."
"“Young fella, if you’re looking for trouble, I’ll accommodate ya”
"Well, come see a fat, old man sometime". ( I like the ending to True Grit)
Far as can discern, life imitates Nat'l Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and The Big Lebowski.
Eddie: Don't go puttin' none of that stuff on my sled, Clark. You know that metal plate in my head? I had to have it replaced, cause every time Catherine revved up the microwave I'd piss my pants and forget who I was for a half hour or so. So over at the VA they had to replace it with plastic. It ain't as strong so I don't know if I should go sailin down no hill with nothing between the ground and my brains but a piece of government plastic. Clark: You really think it matters, Eddie?
Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.” — The Dude
THIS IS MY BOOM-STICK!!! (I was in Army of Darkness....lol)
. Cool ! One of favs ! What did u do ..u a deadite ? Lol!
Just an extra. I was in 6 scenes that I know of, and got run down by a horse and rider on that movie. ( amateur Rider lost control of his horse). ( interesting backstory on that job)
[Grabs Hood 1 by the throat] Hub: I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. NOW, GO HOME, BOY!
*** Hub: WE'RE OLD, DAMNIT! LEAVE US ALONE!
Garth: The last thing we need is some little sissy boy hanging around all summer
*** Walter: What's wrong with him?
Garth: Well, a man's body may grow old, but inside his spirit can still be as young and as restless as ever.
Garth: And him - in his day, he had more spirit than twenty men
*** Hub: You know what I don't like 'bout houseguests? [slams fist on table]
A couple of posters stole my favorites with John Wayne in The Searchers always saying "that'll be the day", and Alan Ladd saying to Jack Palance in Shane "I heard you were a low down Yankee liar". Another favorite was Gary Cooper in Sergeant York when he said "I ain't much good at this here prac-tising Sergeant", and "I reckon I can do a little better when I get used to this here rifle gun", and "I ain't never learned Sergeant, folks back home used to say I could shoot a rifle before I was weaned, but they were exaggerating some".
Whelennut: I always giggle when the Governor William J. LePetomaine (Blazing Saddles) has his buxom secretary behind the curtains in his office and you hear him say to her: "Not in the ear - not in the ear"! He-he. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
These two quotations, may be considered life lessons. *** Bill Dolworth to Hans Ehringard ("The Professionals," 1966: Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin)
Ehringard: What were Americans doing in a Mexican revolution anyway?
Dolworth: Maybe there's only one revolution, since the beginning - the good guys against the bad guys. . . . Question is - Who are the good guys? ******************************** Joe Erin to Ben Train ("Vera Cruz," 1954: Gary Cooper, Burt Lancaster)
Erin: You saved my bacon back there. You were a little slower, you'd've stood to be a lot richer.
Train: Maybe I wasn't thinking of that.
Erin: Too bad you didn't know Ace Hanna. Shot my old man in a stud poker game when I was just a kid. Ace felt so bad he give me a home. Ace used to say three things: Never trust anybody you don't have to trust; never do any favors you don't have to do; and never take any chances you don't have to take. Ace lived long enough to know he was right. He lived thirty seconds after I shot him. ************** ************** And here is the truth from "Jaws" by way of Quint: Farewell & Adieu
"You gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?" Outlaw Josie Wales "I'm your Huckleberry. That's just my game" Tombstone "Your friends might get me in a rush but not before I make your head into a canoe.." Tombstone "Rudy, you can't have no idea how little I care" Monte Walsh "Better to have that and not need it, then to need it and not have it" Lonesome Dove
From McClintock, I wish more people thought this way:
George Washington McLintock: Gave? Boy, you've got it all wrong. I don't give jobs I hire men. Drago: You intend to give this man a full day's work, don'tcha boy? Devlin Warren: You mean you're still hirin' me? Well, yes, sir, I certainly deliver a fair day's work. George Washington McLintock: And for that I'll pay you a fair day's wage. You won't give me anything and I won't give you anything. We both hold up our heads.
we'll work up a number 6 on them, we'll go in there a riding and a whoopin' and beat the hell out of every living thing in that town, (even the women?) no, not the women, (you spare the women) HELL NO, were gonna rape the [bleep] out of them at the number 6 dance later on in the evening :-D
James Pepper: You know, there's an old saying, Miss Sally. There's no law west of Dodge and no God west of the Pecos. Right, Mr. Chisum?
John Simpson Chisum: Wrong, Mr. Pepper. Because no matter where people go, sooner or later there's the law. And sooner or later they find God's already been there.
Hard to top Tombstone for the one liners, and dialogue. One of my favorite exchanges...reduced to a one liner, "Skin that smoke wagon and see what happens". Good stuff. I think I might watch that again tonight.
