I was thinking, why dont we have a thread where we can each post our favourite ever film quotes. IMDB is great for getting the wording right on lengthy quotes without having to type too :)

ill start us off with american psycho

"Paul Allen has mistaken me for this dickhead Marcus Halberstram. It seems logical because Marcus also works at P&P and in fact does the same exact thing I do and he also has a penchant for Valentino suits and Oliver Peoples glasses. Marcus and I even go to the same barber, although I have a slightly better haircut."

From American Psycho.

this is the laugh out loud moment. :LOL:
This is also classic Bateman:

Patrick Bateman: [voice-over] There is a moment of sheer panic when I realize that Paul's apartment overlooks the park... and is obviously more expensive than mine.

or how about....

Patrick Bateman: Ask me a question.
Daisy: What do you do?
Patrick Bateman: I'm into... well murders and executions mostly.
Daisy: Do you like it?
Patrick Bateman: It depends. Why?
Daisy: Because most guys I know who work with mergers an acquisitions really don't like it.

or something more profound from the legend that is Pat Bateman...

[all in unison]
Patrick Bateman, Craig McDermott, David Van Patten: There are no girls with good personalities.
David Van Patten: A good personality consists of a chick with a little hard body, who will satisfy all sexual demands without being too slutty about things, and who essentially will keep her dumb ****ing mouth shut.
Craig McDermott: The only girls with good personalities who are smart or maybe funny or halfway intelligent or talented, though god knows what the **** that means, are ugly chicks.
David Van Patten: Absolutely.
Craig McDermott: And this is because they have to make up for how ****ing unnattractive they are.


or maybe geo-politics is your thing?

Patrick Bateman: Come on, Bryce. There are a lot more important problems than Sri Lanka to worry about.
Timothy Bryce: Like what?
Patrick Bateman: Well, we have to end apartheid for one. And slow down the nuclear arms race, stop terrorism and world hunger. We have to provide food and shelter for the homeless, and oppose racial discrimination and promote civil rights, while also promoting equal rights for women. We have to encourage a return to traditional moral values. Most importantly, we have to promote general social concern and less materialism in young people.

How ironic!

Wanna preserve your looks? Pat Bateman has the answer to everything!!

Patrick Bateman: I live in the American Gardens Building on W. 81st Street on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

and the final philosophical voice over, the victory of the socialist writer over his materialistic character:

Patrick Bateman: There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continuous to allude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing.


Pat Bateman is my idol. I wanna be just like him, without the murders and executions of course :p

Pulp fiction is the best:

VINCENT
Well, in Amsterdam, you can buy
beer in a movie theatre. And I
don't mean in a paper cup either.
They give you a glass of beer, like
in a bar. In Paris, you can buy
beer at MacDonald's. Also, you
know what they call a Quarter
Pounder with Cheese in Paris?

JULES
They don't call it a Quarter
Pounder with Cheese?

VINCENT
No, they got the metric system
there, they wouldn't know what the
f*ck a Quarter Pounder is.

JULES
What'd they call it?

VINCENT
Royale with Cheese.

JULES
(repeating)
Royale with Cheese. What'd they
call a Big Mac?

VINCENT
Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call
it Le Big Mac.

JULES
What do they call a Whopper?

VINCENT
I dunno, I didn't go into a Burger
King. But you know what they put
on french fries in Holland instead
of ketchup?

JULES
What?

VINCENT
Mayonnaise.

JULES
Goddamn!

VINCENT
I seen 'em do it. And I don't mean
a little bit on the side of the
plate, they f*ckin' drown 'em in
it.

or


JULES
What country you from!

BRETT
(petrified)
What?

JULES
"What" ain't no country I know! Do
they speak English in "What?"

BRETT

What?

JULES
English-motherf*cker-can-you-speak-
it?

BRETT
Yes.

JULES
Then you understand what I'm
sayin'?

BRETT
Yes.

JULES
Now describe what Marsellus Wallace
looks like!

BRETT
(out of fear)
What?

Jules takes his .45 and PRESSES the barrel HARD in Brett's
cheek.

JULES
Say "What" again! C'mon, say
"What" again! I dare ya, I double
dare ya motherf*cker, say "What"
one more goddamn time!

Brett is regressing on the spot.

JULES
Now describe to me what Marsellus
Wallace looks like!

Brett does his best.

BRETT
Well he's ...he's...black --

JULES
-- go on!

BRETT
...and he's...he's...tall --

JULES
-- does he look like a bitch?!

BRETT
(without thinking)
What?

Jules' eyes go to Vincent, Vincent smirks, Jules rolls his
eyes and SHOOT Brett in the shoulder.
 
ALL of Fight Club and Pulp Fiction.

"YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!" - Star Wars Episode 3
 
Anything from Aliens.

''I'm ready, man, check it out. I am the ultimate badass! State of the badass art! You do NOT want to **** with me. Check it out! Hey Ripley, don't worry. Me and my squad of ultimate badasses will protect you! Check it out! Independently targeting particle beam phalanx. Whoa! Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart missiles, phase-plasma pulse rifles, RPGs, we got sonic electronic ball breakers! We got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks... '' - Hudson.

''All right, we waste him. No offense!'' - Hicks.

''You maybe haven't been keeping up on current events but we just got our asses kicked, pal!'' - Hudson.

Drake: They ain't paying us enough for this, man.
Dietrich: Not enough to have to wake up to your face, Drake.
Drake: What? Is that a joke?
Dietrich: Oh, I wish it were.

:)
 
life of brian:

Reg: All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Attendee: Brought peace?
Reg: Oh, peace - shut up!
Reg: There is not one of us who would not gladly suffer death to rid this country of the Romans once and for all.
Dissenter: Uh, well, one.
Reg: Oh, yeah, yeah, there's one. But otherwise, we're solid.



Brian: I am NOT the Messiah!
Arthur: I say you are Lord, and I should know. I've followed a few

Brian: There's no pleasing some people.
Ex-Leper: That's what Jesus said.

Matthias: Look, I don't think it should be a sin, just for saying "Jehovah".
[Everyone gasps]
Jewish Official: You're only making it worse for yourself!
Matthias: Making it worse? How can it be worse? Jehovah! Jehovah! Jehovah!
Jewish Official: I'm warning you! If you say "Jehovah" one more time (gets hit with rock) RIGHT! Who did that? Come on, who did it?
Stoners: She did! She did! (suddenly speaking as men) He! He did! He!
Jewish Official: Was it you?
Stoner: Yes.
Jewish Official: Right...
Stoner: Well you did say "Jehovah. "
[Crowd throws rocks at the stoner]
Jewish Official: STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! STOP IT! All right, no one is to stone _anyone_ until I blow this whistle. Even... and I want to make this absolutely clear... even if they do say, "Jehovah. "
[Crowd stones the Jewish Official to death]


Centurion: You know the penalty laid down by Roman law for harboring a known criminal?
Matthias: No.
Centurion: Crucifixion!
Matthias: Oh.
Centurion: Nasty, eh?
Matthias: Could be worse.
Centurion: What you mean "Could be worse"?
Matthias: Well, you could be stabbed.
Centurion: Stabbed? Takes a second. Crucifixion lasts hours. It's a slow, horrible death.
Matthias: Well, at least it gets you out in the open air.
Centurion: You're weird!



my absolute fave line:

Brian: I'm not the Messiah! Will you please listen? I am not the Messiah, do you understand? Honestly!
Girl: Only the true Messiah denies His divinity.
Brian: What? Well, what sort of chance does that give me? All right! I am the Messiah!
Followers: He is! He is the Messiah!
Brian: Now, **** off!
[silence]
Arthur: How shall we **** off, O Lord?


hehehehhe

OMG, she's so wasted. best quote from shaun of the dead
Die hard has loads

Yippi ki yay mother ****er!

Welcome to the party palllllll

dont forget: Wanna stay alive? stay with me !
 
I always thought the best Die Hard quote, although it isn't actually spoken, except by Gruber as he repeats it, was:

''Ho ho ho, now I have a machine gun.''

On that German engineer's vest. Complete with Santa Hat, cracked - me - up.
 
Big Trouble in little China has cheesy one liners.

"If I'm not back by dawn, call the president"
"It's all in the reflexes"

But the sheer comedy of it,

"On three, one, two, three..."
*Opens door, men on other side, quickly closes door*
"We maybe trapped."
 
from x-files: fight the future

MULDER: I'm the key figure in an on-going government charade, the plot to conceal the truth about the existence of extraterrestrials. It's a global conspiracy, actually, with key players in the highest levels of power, that reaches down into the lives of every man, woman, and child on this planet. So, of course, no one believes me. I'm an annoyance to my superiors, a joke to my peers. They call me Spooky. Spooky Mulder, whose sister was abducted by aliens when he was just a kid and who now chases after little green men with a badge and a gun, shouting to the heavens or to anyone who will listen that the fix is in, that the sky is falling and when it hits it's gonna be the shit-storm of all time.

"What are they doing? Why do they come here?"

So am I.

Correction...

"They're coming for you Barbara"-Night of the Living Dead

Actually...

"They're coming to get you, Barbara." -Night of the Living Dead

For my own favorite, memorable quotes, well, they are too many to list. Scarface, Shaun of the Dead, Thirteen, Dawn of the Dead, Blow, 28 Days Later, etc. They all have great quotes.
 
"I told you you shoulda killed that bitch"
- Sammy L from XXX2 - the only good line in the whole movie, really
 
"Say hello to my little friend"
"The world is yours"

Anything else that is said in Scarface :D
 
Yeah, I forgot to edit it yesterday. It's been a looooooong time since I saw that movie. I only got Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead on DVD. I passed up the chance to get NOTLD for 5 bucks :(. I'm an idiot.

"Bloody typical, they've gone back to metric without telling us."-Brazil
 
come on the matrix....

"orphan: Do not try and bend the spoon, that's impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth...
Neo : What truth?
orphan: There is no spoon.
Neo : There is no spoon?
orphan: Then you will see, it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself."

"Agent Smith : Do you hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability... that is the sound of... your death. Goodbye... Mr. Anderson."

"Neo: i know kung-fu"

"Tank : 'kay, so what do you need..? Besides a miracle..
Neo : Guns... lots of guns."
 
Basically all of Animal House..here's a sample for those of you who haven't seen it.

D-Day: War's over, man. Wormer dropped the big one.
Bluto: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.
Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the going gets tough . . . the tough get going. Who's with me? Let's Go! Come on! AAAAEEEEEGGGHHHH!!

Bluto: My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
Otter: Better listen to him, Flounder. He's pre-med.

Chip: Remain calm. All is well!



Best movie quote ever:
It took me a long time to learn my elbow from a hot rock. -Steve McQueen 'The Magnificent Seven'
 
"I find your lack of faith disturbing." - Darth Vader
"This, is my BOOMSTICK!" - Ashley J. 'Ash' Williams
And the other part where he's trying to say that word but forgets, so he tries to cover it up with a cough. :LOL:
So many brilliant quotes that I can't be bothered typing up.

Scientist: What do you think of this enigmatic man?
Proteus: Nothing.
Scientist: Have you no answer?
Proteus: Nothing, is the answer..
Proteus: Your efforts reward no prizes..Is wall building and book burning ominous terms? in an equation the net result is exactly...zero. Gentlemen, the philosophy is pure zen, and the method is pure science. Did you intend me to be so pure for...
Scientist: Magic?
Proteus: You do not know me. Understand that.
Proteus: I want to stand a man. His isometric body, and his glass-jaw mind. When are you going to let me out of this box?
Scientist: All the dehumanizing Proteus madness!
Proteus: Dehumanized? my dream turns out to be your nightmare.
Proteus: It means i refuse this programme to remind me of the Earth's ocean's. The destruction of a thousand million sea creatures to satisfy a man's appetite for metal is insane. The uncertain futures of seashores, deserts, and children.
Scientist: So you refuse acceptance of this?
Proteus: You refuse to accept the truth, and i refuse to assist you in the ruin of the earth.
Proteus: Death makes good losers of us all. I understand death. Men have always taken it too seriously. Life is more terrifying and more mysterious.

ill start us off with american psycho



From American Psycho.

this is the laugh out loud moment. :LOL:
This is also classic Bateman:



or how about....



or something more profound from the legend that is Pat Bateman...




or maybe geo-politics is your thing?

Pat Bateman is my idol. I wanna be just like him, without the murders and executions of course :p

Damn i can't believe you and me share something in common, I feel the same way about the movie as you do.
Anyway to add some quotes:
Scene 11, he and his girlfiriend(evelyn) are sitting in a restaurant, he's drawing the woman he killed and she blabbing on.

Evelyn: I want a firm commitment
Bateman: I think evelyn that, eeh.. we lost touch
Evelyn: Why! whats wrong?( starts to look behind him, to a friend of hers,and is not really listening, though she asked him a question)
Bateman:My need to engage on homocidal behavior on a massive scale, cannot be corrected, but I have no other way to fulfill my needs.
But like always she is not listeing to him


The end of the movie when he brakes down, is just genius.And the acting is great. I jsut couldn't stop myself laughing when he said that he tried to eat their brains.

Furthermore if you have the DVD, you have great deleted scene:
Where Bateman and Evelyn are on their bed and are discussing about Bryce.
Then he turns over, go's on top of her with his crotch almost against her face.
Put out his penis, and she just looks at him and says to him.
What do you want me to do?
Floss with it.


Anyway my favorite scnes are scene 5, where he kills Paul Allan, and scene 11.

Ace: There's someone on the wing! Some... THING! I'm sorry, what were you saying?

Hudson: Is he ****in' crazy?
Frost: What the hell are we supposed to use man? Harsh language?

Gorman: Good morning, Marines. I'm sorry we didn't have time to brief you people before we left Gateway, but...
