Favourate line from a film?

    There are some classics. From Hollywood one-liners like "Let's open up a can of whoopas" to meaningful soliloquys - "get busy living, or get busy dying".

    For some reason I have this rattling around my skull-

    "GET ME DILLINGER!!!"

    Can you name the film?

    "i love the smell of napalm in the morning"

    or from duke nukem (i'm aware its not a film)
    "its time to kick ass n chew bubblegum, and i'm all outta gum"

    "just because ur not paraniod, doesn't mean they're not after u!"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,438 ✭✭✭TwoShedsJackson


    That 'kick ass and chew bubblegum' line is actually in They Live, the 1986 John Carpenter film starring Rowdie Roddie Piper.

    Whoever did Duke Nukem ripped it off.

    its also used in Escape from New York, or a variation of it..

    Most cheesy line ever:

    "I feel the need, the need for speed. OW!"

    I know that strictly speaking I'm quoting four lines and not one, and that was after stopping myself from putting the entire screenplay in.
    Anyone know the film? smile.gif


    Nigel Tufnel: "It's like, how much more black could this be?
    and the answer is none. None more black."

    Nigel Tufnel: "In ancient times, hundreds of years before the dawn of history, an ancient race of people... the Druids. No one knows who they were or what they were doing..."

    Nigel Tufnel: "The sustain, listen to it."
    Marty DiBergi: "I don't hear anything."
    Nigel Tufnel: "Well you would though, if it were playing."

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 898 ✭✭✭Winning Hand


    It wouldnt be spinal tap by anychance?

    Ok these two lines are from the same film, who can spot it?


    "Cos she's got a GREAT a$$, and you want to stick your head ALL the way up it"

    Not sure how this goes exactly

    "This guy can come into my house, eat my food, sit on my couch, bone my wife but he CANNOT WATCH MY TELEVISION"

    Loads of fave lines- impossible to put 'em in at once. Two that come to mind are from a true classic:

    "This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

    and

    "You know, the problems of two people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world..."

    Another one would have to be (obviously) "I AM SPARTACUS!" biggrin.gif


    More to come as I think of them smile.gif

    In the midst of gunfire and madness in "The Crow" with lights flashing in a darkened room, suddenly it goes quiet and Draven pops up. All we see is his face, all we hear is his voice, as he says so matter-of-fact'ly ... "you're all going to die" - ... and then the mayhem resumes.

    It was 'Batman'.

    I quite liked William Wallace's "one chance to tell our enemies - that they may take our lives... but they'll never take ...OUR FREEDOM!" speech...

    ... or after they've won the battle:

    Wallace: WUUUOOOARRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!

    Of the three films i prefer The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. I still like the other two.
    The last one seems to have a better finish to it, some of the filming is more imaginative, such as first view of the valley, Tuco running around the graveyard and the 3 way shoot out at the end.
    I suppose it compares more with Once Upon a Time in the West than the Dollar movies.
