Most Quotable Movie?

Airplane!

"That Dress? Oh, and those shoes?!"

"He thinks he's Ethel Merman."
"You'll be swell!
You'll be great!.
Gonna have the whole world on a plate.
Startin' here, startin' now,
Honey every...thing's......comin'.....up rose"

"The tower? The tower! Repunzel! Repunzel!"

"Mayday? Why that's the Russian New Year. We'll have a parade and floats and lots of fun."

"Johnny, what can you make of this?"
"Well...I can make a hat...a broach...a pterodactyl with..."

"The fog is getting thicker."
"And Leon's getting larrrrger."

"What kind of plane is it?"
"Well it's big pretty white plane with red stripes, curtains in the window. It looks like a big Tylonol."

"The cockpit! What is it?"
"It's the little room in the front of the plane where the pilot and co-pilot sit. But that's not important right now."

"Nervous?"
"Yes."
"First time?"
"No, I've been nervous lots of times."

"Captain, how soon can you land?
"I can't tell."
"You can tell me; I'm a doctor."
"No, I mean I'm just not sure."
"Can you take a guess?"
"Not for another 2 hours."
"You can't take a guess for another 2 hours?"

"I flew single engine fighters during the war. This has 4 engines. It's an entirely different kind of flying altogether."
(Everyone)It's an entirely different kind of flying."

I could go on until I quoted nearly the whole movie.

Gone With The Wind

"Fidle-dee-dee."

"Mr Ashley will be comin' home soon. And you'll be waiting there. Just like a spider."

"Rhett I love you."
"That's your misfortune"

"After all, tomorrow is another day."

"We's gonna dig the ditches for the white folkes to hide in."

"You'll get 40 acres and a mule"
"And a mule?"
"40 acres and a mule!"
"Gee."

"Tonight's one night you're not turning me away."

"Momma says if you put a knife under the bed, you cut the pain in two."

"Rhett, if you go, where shall I go? What shall I do?"
"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."

"As God is my witness, as God is my witness they're not going to lick me. I'm going to live through this and when it's all over, I'll never be hungry again. No, nor any of my folk. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill. As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again."

"Take a good look my dear. It's an historic moment you can tell your grandchildren about - how you watched the Old South fall one night."

Top Secret!

"This machine is capable of removing the salt from over a million gallons of sea water a day. Do you know what that would mean to the hungry countries of the world?"
"They'd have enough salt to last forever."

"Know any good, white basketball players?"
"There are no good, white basketball players."

"This is Chevalier, Montage, Detente, Avant Garde, and Deja Vu."
"Have we not met before?"

East German National Anthem:
Hail, hail East Germany
Land of fruit and grape
Land where you'll regret
If you try to escape
No matter if you tunnel under or take a running jump at the wall
Forget it, the guards will kill you, if the electrified fence doesn't first.

"Is this the potato farm?"
"Yes. I'm Albert Potato."

"I'm sorry, I don't know German."
"I know a little German. And he's sitting right over there."

Hot Shots!

"Oh, by the way I would like to thank you for having us over for dinner the other night. Cheryl and I thought the stroganoff was marvelous."
"Uh Sir, we didn't have dinner the other night."
"Really? Then where the hell was I? And who's this Cheryl?"

"My eyes are ceramic. Caught a bazooka round at Little Big Horn. Or was it Okinawa? The one without the Indians."

"You know, I've personally flown over 194 missions and I was shot down on every one. Come to think of it, I've never landed a plane in my life."

"Admiral Benson."
"Really? That's my name too."

"If I was joking I'd say something like: What do you do with an elephant with 3 balls? You walk him and pitch to the rhino."

"Holy Cow! My cap blew off! Swing her round. We'll pick it up."
"But, sir, we're on the mission."
"Good thinking. We'll pick it up on the way back. We gotta mark the spot, though. Put Robinowitz in a life raft. Have him row in circles until we return."
"It could be days, Sir."
"Then put some food in the life raft, for god's sake, man. Do I have to think of everything? We'll tape his favorite shows, he won't miss anything."

The Princess Bride

"Inconceivable!"

"You keep on using that word. I don't think it means, what you think it means.

"As you wish" (Damn Cary Elwes was hot in that movie.)

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

"He's right on top of us. I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using."

"You are using Bonetti's Defense against me."
"I thought it fitting considering the rocky terrain."
"You must expect me to attack with Capa Ferro?"
"Naturally... but I find that Thibault cancels out Capa Ferro. Don't you?"
"Unless the enemy has studied his Agrippa... which I have."

"I...am not left handed"

"You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!"

"Westley, what about the R.O.U.S.'s?"
"Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist."

"Surrender."
"You mean you wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept."

"The King's stinking son fired me, and thank you so much for bringing up such a painful subject. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it?"

"Get back, witch."
"I'm not a witch. I'm your wife."

"Go away or I'll call the Brute Squad."
"I'm on the Brute Squad."
"You ARE the Brute Squad."

"Anybody want a peanut?"

"Look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do."
"What's that?"
"Go through his clothes and look for loose change."

"Goodbye! Have fun storming the castle."
"You think they'll make it?"
"It'll take a miracle."

"Drop..your..sword."

"What? Humperdink?"
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Humperdink! Humperdink! Humperdink!"
"I'm not listening."

"Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam.."

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

I'll only do one quote. I've done enough already.

"Bravely bold Sir Robin
rode forth from Camelot.
He was not afraid to die, oh brave Sir Robin.
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin.
He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp,
or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken.
To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away,
and his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin.
His head smashed in and heart cut out,
and his liver removed, and his bowels unplugged,
and his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off
and his penis..."
 
The Kazakhstan National Anthem from Borat:

Kazakhstan greatest country in the world
All other countries are run by little girls
Kazakhstan number one exporter of potassium
All other countries have inferior potassium
Kazakhstan home of Tinshein swimming pool
Its length thirty meter and width six meter
Filtration system a marvel to behold
It remove 83 percent of human solid waste
Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan, you very nice place
From plains of Tarashek to northern fence of Jewtown
Kazakhstan friend of all except Uzbekistan
They very nosey people with bone in their brain
Kazakhstan industry best in the world
We invented toffee and trouser belt
Kazakhstan's prostitutes cleanest in the region
Except of course Turkmenistan's
Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan, you very nice place
From plains of Tarashek to northern fence of Jewtown
Come grasp the might penis of our leader
From junction with the testes to tip of its face!

"Knock knock!"
"Stick around!"
"If it bleeds, we can kill it!"

"Well obviously you don't play golf"
 
Re: The Absolute Most Quotable Movie? Ever?

The Princess Bride has to be way up there. I cannot see a name-tag that reads "Hello, my name is..." without thinking "... Inigo Montoya. You keeled my father. Prepare to die!"

Stop say that!



Oh, let's not forget Top Secret.

"I know a little German. He's right over there."
"Klaus, he's a moron who only believes what he reads in the New York Post."
"He caught a cold and he's just a little hoarse." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wO2m0PYTZKY

My dad's favourite:

"I know what you're thinking: 'Did he fire six shots or only five?' Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?" - Dirty Harry
 
^And then he shoots Garak! :p

I thought of a few from Death Becomes Her:

"En garde, BITCH!"

"The morgue? She'll be furious!"

"My ass...I can see...my ASS!"

"I can see right through you!"
