Best Movie Lines Ever

Post by Cal Wright »

Okay, we have a thread for the worst.

But what are the best?

There are sooo many. This one line here seems to be pretty powerful with the prequels in almost in place.

"I am a Jedi. Like my father before me." -Luke Skywalker to Emperor Palpatine in Return of the Jedi.

Were you born with out a sense of humor or did you lose it in a tragic whoppy cushion accident? -Stormbringer

"We are well and truly forked." -Mace Windu Shatterpoint

"Either way KJA is now Dune's problem. Why can't he stop tormenting me and start writting fucking Star Trek books." -Lord Pounder

The Dark Guard Fleet

"Sie gab mir den Key." - Mr. Deltoid in the german version of a clockwork orange.
one of the very few movies i´ve seen in which the translation doesnt suck.

"We were all feeling a bit shagged and fagged and fashed, it having been an evening of small energy expenditure, O my brothers. So we got rid of the auto and stopped off at the old Korova for a nightcap."

"You people wouldn't believe the things I've seen. I've seen attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, I've watched C-Beams glitter in the night at Tanhauser Gate. All of these things will be gone when I'm gone Like Tears or rain. Time to Die.-Roy Batty

The line from M I mentioned earlier:
Hans Breckert: What do you know about it? Who are you anyway? Who are you? Criminals. Are you proud of yourselves? Proud of breaking safes or cheating at cards, things you can just as well keep your fingers off. You wouldn't need to do all that if you'd learn a proper trade. Or if you'd work but if you weren't a bunch of lazy bastards ... but I -- I can't help myself -- I have no control over this. This evil thing inside me, the fire, the voices, the torment! Its there all the time -- driving me to wander the streets, following me silently, but I can feel it there -- it's me, pursuing myself -- I want to escape, to escape from myself but it's impossible ... I can't escape, I have to obey it, I have to run endless streets -- I want to escape, to get away and I'm pursued by ghosts -- ghosts of mothers and of those children, they never leave me, they are there, always there, always, always except when I do it -- when I ... then I can't remember anything and afterwards I see those posters and read what I've done. Did I do that? But I can't remember anything about it, but who will believe me? Who knows what its like to be me? How I'm forced to act -- how I must-- must-- don't want to -- but must -- and then a voice screams -- I can't bear to hear it -- I can't go on, I can't go on ....

Bear, I love that quote too, but I wanted to quote it verbatim:

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."

Some others I've liked:

"I don't where we're going, but I don't want to be late." Tom Selleck (sp?) in Quigley Down Under

"We need a bigger boat." Jaws

and just about everything Rick Moranis says after he becomes the Keymaster in Ghostbusters. "yes, have some."

"It rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again." Buffalo Bill, Silence of the Lambs

So many movies, so many lines. I'll probably kick myself in a couple hours when remember some others.
