Brought the house down...

What are some of the best lines from a scfi/fantasy/hero movie, that when uttered, brought the house down...

For example...

the scene in Aliens when they are considering to go back and rescue the army dudes who were defeated by the aliens? Bill Paxton's character Hudson, who the audience was siding with at that point, says.."Maybe you haven't been keeping up with current events, but we just got our ass-s kicked." The crowded theatre I saw it with cheered him...like...get out of there dudes!!!!

Or in the movie ID4 when the President give's his 'we will not go quietly in the night' line..and they all cheered...so did we!!!

What are some of the best lines from these scifi movies that you remember the theatre audience rallying behind...

One of my hubby's favorites:
"I came here to kick ass and chew bubblegum....and I'm all out of bubblegum."
 
yeah..that is a good one!!!! ...

Die Hard, with its' defying of the known laws of gravity, might be considered a scifi movie (okay a stretch) but I had to mention this one....when Willis in on top of the skyscraper and calls 911...the operator tells him that 911 is ONLY for emergencies to which Willis says..

"NO F-cking sh-t lady, does it sound like I'm ordering a F-ucking pizza??"

I loved that!!!

Rob
 
It's not Sci-Fi but:

Enough is enough! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!
 
...Die Hard...

"NO F-cking sh-t lady, does it sound like I'm ordering a F-ucking pizza??"...

I rather like what McClain said to Karl while they were fighting in the stairwell.. Pure psychological warfare!

"I'm gonna f-ckin' killya,
I'm gonna f-ckin' cook ya,
I'm gonna f-ckin' eat ya...
You should've heard your brother scream when I killed him!"
 
It's a horrible movie, but I love the line:

"Taking dinosaurs off this island is the worst idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas."
 
From Star Trek:
"I have been, and always shall be, your friend. I am Spock."
"Bullshit."

I don't know if it counts, because it was written, but here goes. From Die Hard:

"Ho Ho Ho. Now I have a machine gun."
 
"I'm not locked up in here with you, you are locked in here with ME."

...and pretty much anything ever said by Dirty Harry.
 
From Star Trek:
"I have been, and always shall be, your friend. I am Spock."
"Bullshit."

That's usually the line that gets the biggest reaction when I see that movie in the theaters. Also pretty successful are:

"I like this ship. It's exciting."

"I got your gun."

(Scotty is just told that Spock is from the future.) "Do they still have sandwiches there?"
 
Not a line, but....

When the Enterprise rises out of the nebula fog behind Reliant and the music swells ..... I still get goose bumps.

oooo, how could I forget!

"I want my father back you sonnofabitch!" -Inigo Montoyo:techman:
 
"Target that explosion and fire!" - Captain Sulu.

"I. have had. enough. of you!" - Kirk

nice...

"Where's the over ride..THE OVER RIDE!!" Khan, realizing what kirk is doing to late...

Rob

"The override...it's been overridden!" - "Armageddon"

It's not from a movie, but it has to be said. From Farscape's We Are So Screwed, Pt III

"What happened?"
"We couldn't override their override of our override!"
"Dueling overrides, don't you hate it?"
