(Seriously- there was a semi- joke army list released, or maybe allowed to escape, that included rules for fluff accurate marines. you got one squad of ten for 1500pt. They were that good.)
Fluff-wise, they're supposed to be.
Never underestimate the ingenuity and cruelty of the Irish.

Farscape- Rygel (in Crichton's body) to a Skeksis: "I just peed in the maintainance bay!"

Europa Report- Lady scientist walks out onto the surface of the moon of Europa and stares with wonder at her surroundings and up at Jupiter. [Only non-character based moment I can say I enjoyed]
Ah yes, the "Alpha Legion". I thought we had dismissed such claims.

I'd say Irulan's opening monologue or the 'Are there worm signs' scenes (or Paul riding a worm for the first time) were far more memorable but it's nice to meet somebody else who actually liked the Lynch movie.
'Next time I let Superman take charge, just hit me. Real hard.'
'You're a princess from a society of immortal warriors. I'm a rich kid with issues. Lots of issues.'
'No. No dating for the Batman. It might cut into your brooding time.'
'Tactically we have multiple objectives. So we need to split into teams.'-'Dibs on the Amazon!'
'Hey, we both have a Martian's phone number on our speed dial. I think I deserve the benefit of the doubt.'
'You know, for a guy with like 50 different kinds of vision, you sure are blind.'

I liked the Lynch movie not because of the overall movie(there were certain things that were just...odd if not crazy), but because they just nailed certain key scenes.

A few of them:
Gom Jobbar
Hunter-seeker
Death of Thufir Hawat
I can kill with a word
