I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

One thing's sure: Inspector Clay is dead — murdered — and somebody's responsible!

Sylvester Stallone's speech at the end of First Blood:


 :buggedout: :bluesad:

Wow.  I had completely forgotten that part of First Blood.  But now I remember, and his acting was on point, and the script was so good.  Geez.

And on another note, that scene must have been the inspiration for the Vietnam monologue in Black Dynamite:

"I guess you forgot about the time you and Bravo company left my black ass for dead, huh? But I remember. I remember everything. I remember Vietnam like it was yesterday. I remember that village in Tainan that we cut down. It was a massacre. All the dead Chinamen we left in our tracks. I remember the faces, the children. This one child I'll never forget. Poor little bastard was still alive. His little Chinese legs were blown clean off! Still see his little shins & feet hanging from the ceiling fan across the hut. He was charred from his head down to his little Chinese knees. He tried to get up, but he fell over when what was left of his right leg broke off. As he laid there, flat on his face, he looked up at me. His little Chinese eyes burned right into my stomach, deep into my soul. He said something to me in Chinese like, 'Boo coo sow!', sounded like some cartoon s**t. But I understood it to be a question that he was asking me. And I don't have to know how to speak Chinese to know what that question was. 'Why, Black Dynamite? Why?"

Charlie Sheen's final words in Platoon - I cried in the cinema when this happened.

In BOMBA AND THE JUNGLE GIRL (1952) Bomba (JOHNNY SHEFFIELD) asks the attractive brunette daughter of the Inspector, Linda Ward (KAREN SHARPE) :
"Why are you following me?" ( Immediately I imagined she thought "...'Cause you look good from behind...?"  )

Three Days Of The Condor

Higgins: It's simple economics. Today it's oil, right? In ten or fifteen years, food. Plutonium. Maybe even sooner. Now, what do you think the people are gonna want us to do then?
Joe Turner: Ask them?
Higgins: Not now - then! Ask 'em when they're running out. Ask 'em when there's no heat in their homes and they're cold. Ask 'em when their engines stop. Ask 'em when people who have never known hunger start going hungry. You wanna know something? They won't want us to ask 'em. They'll just want us to get it for 'em!

Oh and I've always loved this one form Van Helsing (don't judge me):

"No! I have no heart, I feel no love. Nor fear, nor joy, nor sorrow. I am hollow... and I will live forever."

One of my favorite villain threats is from a techno-horror called Ghost in the Machine (1993)

"You can't run. You can't hide. You can't win"

A little generic, I know I just liked the way the cyber ghost delivered it.

Then there's the line the head morlock gives in the 2002 version of The Time Machine  

"We all have our time machines, don't we. Those that take us back are memories...And those that carry us forward, are dreams"

From SAVING PRIVATE RYAN:

"Earn this, Ryan.  Earn it."


I cry. every. single. time!

"Broadsword calling Danny Boy"  WHERE EAGLES DARE (1968) 

Great film: I had the VHS for years and when I finally got the DVD, I realized I'd been watching half a movie for too long.  :smile:

ROLLING THUNDER (1977):

Rane (William Devane): I found them
Johnny (Tommy Lee Jones): Who?
Rane: The men who killed my son.
Johnny: I'll just get my gear.
Rane: They're in a whorehouse over in Juarez right now.  There's the four that came into my home, and there's eight or ten others.
Johnny: Let's go clean 'em up.


INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (1956)

Kauffman: The mind is a strange and wonderful thing. I'm not sure it will ever be able to figure itself out. Everything else maybe, from the atom to the universe. Everything except itself.


IN COLD BLOOD (1967)

Perry (Robert Blake): I'd like to apologize. But who to?


THE WAR OF THE WORLDS (1953)

Alex (Malcolm McDowell): I was cured alright.


ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES (1938)

Father Jerry (Pat O'Brien): Let's go and say a prayer for a boy who couldn't run as fast as I could.

From THE ALAMO (2004) - "If it was just me - plain and simple David from Tennessee - I just might drop over that wall one of these nights and take my chances.  But that Davy Crockett feller - they're always watching him.  And he's been on this wall every day  of  his life."

Funny and witty:

"Gentleman, you can't fight here - it's the war room!"

Hamid: What's that?
Rambo: It's blue light.
Hamid: What does it do?
Rambo: It turns blue.

That one is even better in German. I'll file it under "profound" because a friend of my borther-in-law put that quote in his physics dissertation.

THE GODFATHER (1972)

Don Corleone (Marlon Brando): Tell me, do you spend time with your family?
Johnny Fontane (Al Martino): Sure I do.
Don Corleone: Good. Because a man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.


PAPILLON (1973)

Louis Dega (Dustin Hoffman): Blame is for God and small children.

The Room (2003)

If a lot of people love each other, the world would be a better place to live.

Tommy Wiseau wrote that? Wow.  :thumbup:

I much prefer the book to the film. For frankly, I hate it, when they think they have to up the violence quota to make something better. The Sand Pebbles was the same way. A good film, which I liked, but more violent than the book. The only time I think death on film that was not in the book, made it better, was in the 1st season of Midsomer Murders, the 1st erpisode The Killings at Badger's Drift.

Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace (1999)

Having the ability to speak does not make you intelligent.

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist:


 :buggedout: +  :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle:

Agreed: the book had humor which was almost absent in the film: the same went for The Guns Of Navarone's book which had humor and all the main characters on the mission together, instead of one wanting to kill another "when the war's over".

Purely an accidently bit of insightfulness on his part. It's in the scene with Denny and Johnny on the rooftop where Denny says he loves Lisa.
