Lines We Like to Use

[Neville]

It's been ages since I last used this one: "Today is groundhog daaaaaay!"

I used it a lot back in highscool to tell my friends something big was happenning that day. The line is taken from "Groundhog day", a 1993 comedy starring Bill Murray. Everyday he is awaken by the radio, and some people start yelling that very same line, annoying the hell out of him. For that reason, whenever it was used we tried to sound annoying while saying it.

[Newt]

"Day ain't over yet" - from City Slickers.  Somebody asked Curly (the surly trailboss) if he had ever killed anybody...I use it all the time.

[Sven André]

Another great line from The Big Lebowski that I use sometimes

"This is what happens when you f**k a stranger in the ass!"

[The Burgomaster]

I like to use the famous line from GONE WITH THE WIND:

"As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again!" (Followed by a big order from McDonald's $1.00 menu).

I also like to say the famous line from PLANET OF THE APES:

"Take your stinking paws off of me, you damn dirty ape!" (Usually, when my wife tries to hug me . . . I PRAY TO GOD SHE NEVER READS THIS).

Everytime I'm shopping and there's craziness of shoppers and screaming children and shoving I have to delcare out loud "IT'S A MAHOUSE..A MAAADHOUSE" (from planet of the apes). I actually talk in moviequotes alot which is sad because nobody gets it be me. Apparently I'm too much of a movie buff for the world to handle. Admittedly Heston seems to pop out of my mouth the most. The last time was when I was trying to find a tv dinner I liked and the guy said they no longer carried it. As I walked off I was mumbling "You did it, you really did it. Damn you..god damn you all to hellll". Good thing he didn't call the 5-0

I think it would be a great idea to invent a pocket sized electronic keychain device which you can program with your favorite movielines to play at key moments. I mentioned this to a friend years ago. I would kill for such a device. ;-)

I'm not gonna touch that one! :)

Use a portable MP3 player.

here's some more I thought of from The Last Dragon

"Bow down and kiss my converse."

"Hey my man what it look like?"

from The Negotiator

"I'll shoot you where you one by one!" (usually say this when someone asks me a question like 'What would you do if I....?" folowed by something dumb)

not really from a movie but from the Nature Boy Ric Flair
"Like it or not you're gonna have to learn to love it because it's the best thing going."

from Jay and SIlent Bob
"Afleck was the bomb in Phantoms yo."

Great Idea - but i'd have to search for it and carry some kind of speaker. I need something that I can press a programmed button (of many) in which it plays so everyone can hear it. At this point people probably think i'm just crazy. I think whats even more frustrating is when I use movielines in conversation to illustrate a point or feeling and they don't "get it" because they don't watch film much. I need to get out more. ;-)

"All in the reflexes"-Jack Burton

and whenever I see Ben Affleck on TV I can't help but spout out the Mallrats line "he likes to have sex with women in a very uncomfortable place" and usually someone has the proper response of "Like in the back of a volkswagen?"

[John Morgan]

Every time I see a film starring or a picture of Keanu Reeves I have to yell out:

"YES WAY, TED!!!"

>I need something that I can press a programmed button (of many) in which it
>plays so everyone can hear it.

Ok, but for that you need to get more technical.

I've seen keychains with 4 buttons on them (my mother has one) and when you press one of the buttons, it plays one of 4 insults. What you need to do is get one of those, take it apart and get someone with electronics experience to desolder the ROM chip, program an EPROM with samples of 4 movie quotes you want and put it all back together for you. For more than that, get addition keychains. You can always stick two of them back-to-back and have 8 phrases available at the touch of a button.

i think i'm a great big cheezeball.
i'm a big user of lines from "History of the World Part 1"
the most commonly used one comes out in convo like this:

OTHER GUY: hey CoCo!  whereya been hiding?
ME: i just got back from the auto da fe
OTHER GUY: auto da..what?  what's an auto da fe?
ME: it's what you oughtn't to do but you do anyway!

yeah it's cheezy, but i can't tell you HOW many people have ended up cowering in the corner of my mom's couch while my mother, my sister, i, and my mom's 4 year old goddaughter prance around the living room for 2 hours acting out the movie like it was RHPS night.  because invariably, when they ask what the heck i'm talking about, i lure them to my mom's to watch the film.

that's the pleasure of it.

History of the World has great lines.

"It's good to be da king."

And another I've used:

"Move that miserable piece of sh*t!"
Of course, you have to bellow it with the appropriate bulgining eyes and cracking voice.

[spikesangel]

yes, it's good to be da king.
and also, when someone asks me too many times to repeat what i just said, i eventually say "King Louiiiiiiiiiiiiiis" and hack and cough.  they just give up.

also if i hear anyone at ALL say "count the money" you KNOW what comes next!

oooh, and let's not forget "don't get saucy with ME Bearnaise!"

and for various reasons, i like to yell "FREEEE!  FREE!" like the old man does when he tries to release the dead birds.
