OK from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, which is on this afternoon causing me to think it is Christmas :confused: "Toot sweets" anyone? ~ I hate the fact that I love it :(

So what other famous lines from films do you remember?

Oh and I have to mention this one in honour of the late, great Mr Swayze ~ "Nobody puts Baby in a corner".

BARF!

"Back off, Warchild. Seriously."

That's in honour of Swayze. :p

"Well, when you grow up... then you'll know these things, Danny. Now get up here and piss in the radiator." ;)

Unfortunately I can't think of any Groucho Marx quotes. Partly because I don't know any, but mostly because I'm too busy thinking of K'Ehleyr...and pajamas... :evil:
 
Funnily enough, I was just watching this scene from another recent film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_cBPc6VSaI

I often had a problem with shooting an elephant in my pyjamas in the mornings. Doctor says that during those moments I should think unsexy thoughts of John Prescott, and the uncomfortable sensation in my pyjamas should subside.
 
Groucho Marx threads are always 100% win.

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

"Why, I'd horse-whip you if I had a horse!" - Groucho Marx

See this is why I don't get the Marx bros ~ who needs to have a horse to own a whip? :devil:

Ahh ~ didn't know that. Thanks --Ted :)

The line about "shooting an elephant in my pajamas" was originally Groucho's. It was later used in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and a number of other films and TV shows.

It's sort of the classic stereotype Groucho line.

Indeed, first used (on film) in Animal Crackers from 1930!

Funny, I've met a lot of pin-up girls, but I've never been able to pin one down.
 
Oooo one that I do love ~
