I just thought of this thread while I was doing my new sig.

Governor Schwarzenegger must be the King of one-liners, with movies like running man, predator, and the terminator.

I'd have to say my fave was the last boy scout - it was like the whole movie was a constant barrage of one liners!

how about yours?

While on a journey, Chuang Tzu found an old skull, dry and parched.
With sorrow, he questioned and lamented the end of all things.
When he finished speaking, he dragged the skull over and, using it for a pillow, lay down to sleep.
In the night, the skull came to his dreams and said, 'You are a fool to rejoice in the entanglements of life.'
Chuang Tzu couldn`t believe this and asked, 'If I could return you to your life, you would want that, wouldn`t you?'
Stunned by Chuang Tzu`s foolishness, the skull replied, 'How do you know that it is bad to be dead?'

Commando:
Woman:What happened to Sully? Arnold: (Previouly dropped Sully of cliff) I let him go.

Arnold:I'll be back Bennet.

Arnold: (After killing a enemy on a plane and putting a planket and pillow on him) Excuse me flight attendant don't distrupe my friend he's dead tired.)

Couple more but I'm in a hurry, can't type them all.

Now it's time to sing the nation anthem IN AMERICA!!!

Gotta be a Bond film, preferably a Sean Connery one. I'll say "Goldfinger", just since I'm too lazy to compare quotes on IMDB right now.

Not just one liners exactly, but The Last Boyscout.

"Officer: Good morning gentlemen. Is there a problem?
Milo: Yes, officer. As a matter of fact there is a problem. Apparently there are too many bullets in this gun.  [shoots him]

The Burgomaster

Here are a few memorable one-liners that come to mind:


DEATH WISH II:  "Do you believe in Jesus?  You're going to meet him."

SUDDEN IMPACT (a bad movie, but a memorable line):  "Go ahead.  Make my day."

One of the Bond movies (I can't remember which one):  "He's a cunning-linguist."

THE WARRIORS:  "I'll shove this bat up your @$$ and turn you into a popsicle."

"Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone."

Mostly when I think of Arnold movies and one-liners I think that they are pretty silly.

The one-liners I like are usually  not really one-liners but good comebacks from setup lines

From "Time Bandits"
Kevin: You mean God?
Randall: We don't know him that well, we only work for him

From  Buckaroo Banzai
"Where are we going?"
"Planet Ten"
"When are we going?"
"Real soon!"

Stuff like that...

From the earlier Dirty Harry:
"Do you feel lucky, punk?  Well, do you?"

last action hero is full of em but my favorite is they live     check out the quotes http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/quotes   my favorites are:
Nada: Life's a b***h, and she's back in heat!

Nada: I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

Nada: You, you look OK, but her, she's real f**king ugly!

Nada: You see, I take these glasses off, she looks like a regular person...
[He puts them back on.]
Nada: ...on: formaldehyde face.

Nada: You... you look like your face fell in the cheese dip back in 1956.

Chuck Norris in Invasion USA  (why hasn't this movie been included on this site???)--"When I want your opinion I'll beat it out of you."  And who can forget "You come back in here, I'll hit you with so many rights you'll beg for a left."

Some people like cupcakes better--I for one care less for them

Didn't like Indianna Jones after the first movie, but I really liked this line from the third one where Jones discovers he's up against the Nazis again...

"Nazis!  I hate these guys."

raj

And from The Blues Brothers:
"I hate Illinois Nazis"

Best line from that movie:
"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark out, and we're wearing sunglasses."

Flangepart

"Hit it"

Spaced invaders has some good ones:
"Did we win?"
"No, but if we think fast, we just might live to lie about it!"

"Their not evil. Their just..stupid."

"Prepare to die, earth scum!"

"Aggressivlly eccentric, and proud of it!"

Bad Taste has sh*t loads of great one liners

Derek (Re alien invaders): 'Theres no glowing fingers on these b*st*rds'

Ozzy (after kicking an aliens head out of a window): 'The old magic's still there'

Derek: 'Suck my spinning steel sh*thead!'

'Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?'

Conrad

It's not a bad movie, but it is a cult one: Withnail and I.  Every scene has a killer one-liner in it, e.g. "We've come on holiday - by mistake!"
"We want the finest wines known to humanity and we want them NOW!"
"If you hit me it's murder.  I have a heart condition."
"A coward you are, Withnail; an expert on bulls you are not!"
"My heart's going like a f***ed-up clock!"
"My thumbs have gone weird!"
etc., etc.  Perhaps a bit too British for all you Americans.

Crouching Tiger - Hidden Police Speed Trap

Gecko Brothers

What about Cambell in Army of Darkness the whole movie was one-liners and don't forget some spoofs like Hot Shots or Airplane!. The last two Pixar movies and Ice Age has some too.
