August 27, 201213 yr For some reason the other day I had a bunch of lines from Monty Python and the Holy Grail running through my head. It was odd because I haven't seen that movie in a few years. Needless to say I had to jump onto YouTube and watch some clips. So that made me think of a good thread. What are you most quotable movies, and what are some of your favorite quotes? For me, The Holy Grail is up there. "Bring out your dead!" "Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?" "She turned me into a newt!" Airplane! of course. "Don't call me Shirley." "Excuse me stewardess, I speak jive." "I like my coffee black, like my men." Happy Gilmore. "How 'bout a nice warm glass of shut the hell up!" "The price is wrong, b****." "You eat pieces of s*** for breakfast?"
August 27, 201213 yr Sudden Impact - Dirty Harry "Go Ahead, Make My Day" "You're a legend in your own mind." "Need a lift?" "Why, yes." "Good. Then shove a jack up your ass!"
August 27, 201213 yr anchorman is easily the most quoted movie in my lifetime. dumb and dumber and ace ventura are a close second. Not only by me, of course. Its just that time in my life when those movies came in, it was an onslaught
August 27, 201213 yr Spaceballs: "I knew it--I'm surrounded by assholes." "I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate." "When will then be now?" "Soon."

August 27, 201213 yr I found The Hangover to be almost overwhelmingly quotable. It wasn't an amazing movie, but oh so very quotable. I did enjoy it though, but if not for the screenwriter and/or the improv of the actors, it may have flopped.
August 27, 201213 yr Continuing in the Monty Python vein, Life of Brian is an eminantly quotable film.

August 27, 201213 yr How the HELL did we get this far in and no mention of Caddyshack?! "Hey Wang, don't tell 'em yer Jewish." "So I got THAT going for me...which is nice." Etc. I love quotes from Coen movies too. The Hudsucker Proxy: "Y'know, for kids." Intolerable Cruelty: "I'm FASCINATED by that creature." "You're exposed." Big Lebowski: Too many to name. Fargo... ETc., etc, etc.
August 27, 201213 yr QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Aug 27, 2012 -> 12:23 PM) From Cool Hand Luke: "What we got here is... failure to communicate". I had an a$$hole security guard at my work say that to me over something stupid.
