Favourite Lines from Movies

Handsome Bob

1) The Departed

Dignam: This is unbelievable. Who put the ****in' cameras in this place?
Police Camera Tech: Who the **** are you?
Dignam: I'm the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy.

Frank Costello: Get you? Give you? Who the **** do you work for? What?

2) The Shawshank Redemption

Red: There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then: a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can't. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bull**** word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a ****.
Red: Let me tell you something my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane

3) Chopper

Interviewer: You've written a best-seller...
Chopper: Yeah, I know - and I can't even bloody spell. What about those poor bloody academics, those college graduates, battling their guts out to write some airy-fairy piece of exaggerated artwork? And here's a bloke, sitting in a cell, who can't spell, and he's written a best-seller. It's sold two hundred and fifty thousand copies. And it's still selling. And he's writing another one. And I can't even spell. I'm semi-bloody-illiterate.

4) The Dark knight

Two-Face: You thought we could be decent men in an indecent time. But you were wrong. The world is cruel, and the only morality in a cruel world is chance.
/I][I]holds up his coin[/I][I
TwoFace: Unbiased. Unprejudiced. Fair.

Alfred Pennyworth: Because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Jim Gordon: Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now...and so we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector...a dark knight.


5) American History X

Bob Sweeney: There was a moment... when I used to blame everything and everyone... for all the pain and suffering and vile things that happened to me, that I saw happen to my people. Used to blame everybody. Blamed white people, blamed society, blamed God. I didn't get no answers 'cause I was asking the wrong questions. You have to ask the right questions.
Derek Vinyard: Like what?
Bob Sweeney: Has anything you've done made your life better?



I know you've all have probably seen a thread like this a million times, but does anyone else care to share?

V for Vendetta

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant and vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition! The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.

Handsome Bob

That's a helluva lot a v's from "V":pac: I remember seeing it in the cinema and was just thinking to myself "How many stabs did Weaving have to take at that to get it right!":D

The Denouncer

Just about everything right here especially

Senator: The war's over. Our side won the war. Now we must busy ourselves winning the peace. And Fletcher, there's an old saying: To the victors belong the spoils.
Fletcher: There's another old saying, Senator: Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.

Death or Glory

The Color of Money-

'You remind me that money won is twice as sweet as money earned.'

Die Hard...

No ****ing **** Lady, does it sound like like I´m ordering a pizza...

RFOLEY1990

'If anything in life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it's that you kill anyone'

LCD

They Live

"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum".

Is so cheesy with his mullet & shotgun!

Right Turn Clyde

Unforgiven

Little Bill Daggett: Well, sir, you are a cowardly son of a bitch! You just shot an unarmed man!

Will Munny: Well, he should have armed himself if he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend.

Adamantium

Burn after Reading (2008) ending

CIA Supervisor:Jesus ****ing Christ. What did we learn, Palmer?
Palmer Smith: I don't know sir.
CIA Supervisor: I don't ****ing know either. I guess we learned not to do it again. I'm ****ed if I know what we did.
Palmer Smith: Yes sir, it's hard to say.

Back to the Future (1985)

[Dr. Emmett Brown is doubting Marty McFly's story about that he is from the future]
Dr. Emmett Brown: Then tell me, future boy, who's President of the United States in 1985?
Marty McFly: Ronald Reagan.
Dr. Emmett Brown: Ronald Reagan? The actor?
[chuckles in disbelief]
Dr. Emmett Brown: Then who's vice president? Jerry Lewis?
[rushing out and down a hill toward his laboratory]
Dr. Emmett Brown: I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady!
Marty McFly: [following Doc] Whoa. Wait, Doc!
Dr. Emmett Brown: And Jack Benny is secretary of the treasury.
Marty McFly: [outside the lab door] Doc, you gotta listen to me.
Dr. Emmett Brown: [opens the door to the lab] I've had enough practical jokes for one evening. Good night, future boy!
[closes the door leaving Marty outside]

Dr. Emmett Brown: [holding Marty's video camera] No wonder your president has to be an actor. He's gotta look good on television.

Sunshine (2007)

The brusk way Cillian Murphy (Capa), says "Kill him".

Mace: When the Icarus Two was broken apart from Icarus One, there's something we weren't thinking about. The computer was down. The airlock was decoupled manually.
Corazon: I was on the flight deck with Cassie the whole time.
Capa: And I was with Mace and Searle in the observation room.
Mace: And I think we can all... assume it wasn't Harvey. That leaves one possibility.
Corazon: Trey.
Capa: But why would Trey do it? He blames everything on himself, he sleeps twenty-three hours a day, he's clinically depressed... Why'd he do it?
Mace: We don't know, but we can't discard it as a possibility.
Corazon: And there's something else.
[slides forward a piece of paper]
Corazon: With Searle and Harvey gone, we lost two breathers. We have enough oxygen for four crew to make it to the payload delivery point.
Capa: So we'll do it.
Mace: I'll do it. I'm not passing any bucks.
Corazon: Well, then...
Mace: We'll vote this time. Unanimous decision required.
[pause]
Mace: Well, you know where I stand.
Corazon: [draws back the piece of paper] And me.
Mace, Corazon: [look at Capa]
Capa: What are you asking? That we weigh the life of one man versus the future of all mankind?
[pause]
Capa: Kill him.
Mace: [looks at Cassie] Cassie...
Cassie: [a tear slides down her face] No.
Mace: Cassie...
Cassie: I know the argument. I know the logic. You're saying you need my vote. I'm saying you can't have it.
Mace: [long pause]
[gets up]
Mace: Sorry, Cassie...
Cassie: [crying] Oh God... Make it easy for him. Somehow.
