    'Named after your father perhaps' (I'm guessing it had nothing to do with Peter O Toole..)

    'You've just killed James Bond'

    'I've smelt that aftershave before, and both times I've smelled a rat'

    'I must say Miss Case looks very attractive, for a lady'

    'Well he certainly left with his tails between his legs'

    'I was just out walking my rat and seemed to have lost my way'

    'Who is your floor'

    'Would you settle for a tulip'

    'Wrong pussy'

    'If you've got any business to attend to, you just take your time'

    'A mouse with sneakers on couldn't get through'

    'Welcome to hell Blofeld'

    'Go blow up your pants'

    'Tiffany my dear, we're showing a bit more cheek than usual'

    'One more word from you Metz, and I'll have you shot'

    'All your problems are behind you now'

    Just like how Sean ended his tenure as 007.

    Was that in reference to Diamonds are Forever or Never Say Never Again. Guessing the former, but he did return, although not in an official capacity

    Hence why I meant DAF; thought that was clear. I know I would rather put in NSNA between the two.

    Thug #1: "You wanna ride in da front, Mistah Franks?"
    Thug #2: "Yeaahhh, iz a lot smooodah ride in da front, Mistah Franks."
    007: "Yes, I believe I'll sit in the front."

    Tiffany Case: "Look, you drop me off at the nearest hotel, this whole thing is getting a little out of hand! I mean, when you start stealing moon machines from Willard Whyte, goodbye and good luck!"
    007: "Don't worry, I've got a friend Felix who can fix anything."
    Tiffany Case: "Is he married?"
    (police officer pulls them over)
    Tiffany Case: "Relax! You've got a friend named Felix who can fix anything."
    007: "Unfortunately, so can Willard Whyte."

    Blofeld: "Don't get any ideas, Mr. Bond, that missile is not a practical weapon."
    007: "Oh, it's hardly worth the effort. After all, I wouldn't know which one of you to kill."
    Blofeld Double: "We appreciate your predicament, Mr. Bond."
    Blofeld: "We deeply sympathize."

    Blofeld: "Well well well, look what the cat dragged in!"

    007: "It seems you're holding all the aces- right down to the dragon lady over here."
    Tiffany Case: "Miss Case has taken a terribly reasonable attitude towards all this. Like any sensible animal, she's only threatening when she's threatened."

    Mr. Wint: "Very......moving."
    Mr. Kidd: "Heart-warming."
    Mr. Wint: "A glowing tribute, Mr. Kidd."

    Mr. Wint: "If at first you don't succeed....."
    Mr. Kidd: "Try, try again, Mr. Wint."

    Bond: "I was refering to the original vintage, on which the sherry was based"

    Moneypenny: "A diamond, in a ring..."

    Bond: "Small world".

    Bond: "Felix, don't tell me you lost her" (not much the quote but the way he say it)

    Bond: "I've smelled that aftershave before, and each time I smelled a rat" (my personal favorite)

    Mr Kidd: "One of nature's finest killers, Mr Wint"
    Mr Wint: "One is never too old to learn from a master Mr Kidd"

    'Tiffany my dear, we're showing a bit more cheek than usual aren't we' and of course from the DAF pre title sequence the mellifluousness of Charles Gray's voice saying 'Making mud pies 007?'.

    Some truly great lines in DAF. One of my favourites for quotable dialogue.

    Sir Donald Munger: Tell me, Commander, how far does your expertise extend into the field of diamonds?
    James Bond: Well, hardest substance found in nature, they cut glass, suggests marriage, I suppose it replaced the dog as the girl's best friend. That's about it.

    M[/b]: Refreshing to hear that there is one subject you're not an expert on!




    Slumber Inc. Attendant: The stiff, ehm, the deceased back there... Your brother, Mr. Franks?
    James Bond: Yes, it was.

    Slumber Inc. Attendant: I got a brudder.

    James Bond: Small world.



    Plenty O'Toole: Hi, I'm Plenty.

    James Bond: But of course you are.

    Plenty O'Toole: Plenty O'Toole.

    James Bond: Named after your father perhaps?


    James Bond: Good morning, gentlemen. ACME pollution inspection. We're cleaning up the world, we thought this was a suitable starting point.


    Willard Whyte: Baja? I haven't got anything in Baja!


    James Bond: Weren't you a blonde when I came in?

    Tiffany Case: Could be.

    James Bond: I tend to notice little things like that - whether a girl is a blonde or a brunette.
    Tiffany Case: Which do you prefer?

    James Bond: Well, as long as the collar and cuffs match...

    And there are undoubtedly more I have forgotten.
    Well, there we go, time to move on. And being that it's the 40th anniversary, what better film to move on to...

    Live And Let Die!

    "Funny how the least little thing amuses him."

    That gets me every time.

    "Now you listen to me, troopah boy! We got a swamp full of Black Russians drivin' boats to beat the band down here!"

    "I'm sure we'll be able to lick you into shape."

    "No ice."
    "That's extra, man!"

    "It's sure gonna be a beeeutiful day! A beeeutiful day!"

    "First, you go up to Harlem and kill one of the brothers. And that disturbed me."

    'I feel tempted to test that theory right now'

    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: There's that son of a bitch. I got him.

    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: What are you? Some kinda doomsday machine boy? Well WE got a cage strong enough to hold an animal like you here!

    Felix Leiter: Captain, would you enlighten the Sheriff please?

    State Trooper: Yessir. J.W., let me have a word with ya. J.W., now this fellow's from London England. He's a Englishman workin' in cooperation with our boys, a sorta... secret agent.

    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: Secret AGENT? On WHOSE side?


    Mr. Big: Is THIS the stupid mother who tailed you uptown?

    James Bond: There seems to be some mistake. My name is...

    Mr. Big: Names is for tombstones, baby! Y'all take this honkey out and WASTE HIM! NOW!



    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: By the powers INvested IN ME by this parish, I hereby do commandeer this vehicle and all those persons within. And that means YOU, smartass!

    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: Did you ever think of getting a driver's licence, boy?


    Rosie Carver: There's a...

    James Bond: Oh, a snake. I forgot, I should have told you. You should never go in there without a mongoose.



    Adam: Bond ripped off one of our boats. He's headed for the Irish Bayou. The man that gets him stays alive! Now, MOVE YOU MOTHERS!


    Rosie Carver: But you couldn't. You wouldn't. Not after what we just done.

    James Bond: Well I certainly wouldn't have killed you before.


    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: Toby. Toby! I got me a regular Ben-Hur down here. Doing 95... minimum

    State Trooper
    : Need any help, J.W.?

    Sheriff J.W. Pepper: HELL NO!



    I sometimes forget how many wonderful lines are in LALD, and even though he's not always popular, I cannot help but love some of Sheriff Peppers lines. Clifton James mannerisms and delivery is superb.
    But it is time to move on. So without further adieu, let us move onto...
    The Man With The Golden Gun.

    TMWTGG is loaded with grade A dialogue!

    Bond: "He must have found me quite titilating!"

    M: "Oh Q, shut up."

    Francisco Scaramanga: "I could have shot you down when you landed, but that would have been ridiculously easy."

    Nick Nack: "Let me out! You big bully!"
    Bond: "Shaddup."

    Andrea Anders: "Who do you think sent that bullet? I did."

    Andrea Anders: "Tall, slim, dark."
    Bond: "So's my aunt- anything distinctive about him?"

    M: "Outraged chefs, humiliated tailors, jealous husbands- the list is endless!"

    Bond: Fascinating anatomical titbit, but the most useless piece of information l ever heard.

    Scaramanga: What do they teach in that school? Ballet dancing?

    Bond: Six bullets to your one?
    Scaramanga: l only need one.

    Scaramanga: You see, Mr Bond, l always thought l liked animals. Then l discovered that l liked killing people even more.

    "Nick Nack! Tabasco!"

    The most bizarre opening line of any film I've ever seen.
  • edited March 2014 Posts: 2,483
    Saida: "Aaaah! I've lost my charm!"
    Bond: "Not from where I'm standing."

    Scaramanga: "Aaah. Here's the part I like."
    Kaboom goes Bond's airplane.
    "Now that's what I call solar power!"

    More serious ones:
    "You see, Mr. Bond, I always thought I loved animals. Then I discovered that I enjoyed killing people even more!"
    "PHUYUCK?!?" (love the way Moore says this)
    "Elephants?!? We're Democrats, Maybelle!"
    And the way Moore says shut up as Nick Nack rambles at near the end.

    Bond : "There's a useful four letter word,and you're full of it"

    A classic line,and a full 13 years before Dalton nicked it in TLD.
  • "Speak now or forever hold your piece..."

    Moore made sure to thank Dickie Maibaum for such a wonderful line, thing is it was surely Tom Mackwienz (sp) who wrote it and I wondered if it wasn't Moore being a touch bitchy, in response to Maibaum's off-message, sniping comments about Moore in Starlog magazine during 1983's Battle of the Bonds. Or am I over-thinking it?

    A few choice quotes...

    Francisco Scaramanga: You see, Mr. Bond, I always thought I loved animals. Then I discovered that I enjoyed killing people even more.


    James Bond: Miss Anders... I didn't recognize you with your clothes on.


    James Bond: Fascinating anatomical tidbit. But probably the most useless piece of information I've ever heard. Unless, of course, the Bottoms Up is a strip club and Scaramanga is performing.


    Lazar: Mr. Bond, bullets do not kill. It is the finger that pulls the trigger.

    James Bond: Exactly. I am now aiming precisely at your groin. So speak or forever hold your piece.



    James Bond: Did you see who shot Fairbanks?

    Saida: No, I was in his arms. My eyes were closed.

    James Bond: Well, at least he died happy.


    Francisco Scaramanga: You see, Mr Bond, like all great artists I want to create one indisputable masterpiece: the death of 007.

    James Bond: You mean stuffed and mounted over your rocky mantelpiece?

    Francisco Scaramanga: It's an amusing idea, but I was thinking more in terms of history.





    Francisco Scaramanga: Now that's what I call solar power.

    James Bond: That's what I call trouble.


    James Bond: You live well, Scaramanga.

    Francisco Scaramanga: At a million dollars a contract I can afford to, Mr Bond. You work for peanuts, a hearty well done from her Majesty the Queen and a pittance of a pension. Apart from that we are the same. To us, Mr Bond, we are the best.

    James Bond: There's a useful four letter word, and you're full of it.


    James Bond: Who'd want to put a contract on me?

    M: Jealous husbands! Outraged chefs! Humiliated tailors! The list is endless!


    And with that, I think it's time we moved onto...The Spy Who Loved Me

    "When one is in Egypt, one must delve deeply into its treasures."

    "Hurry, Commander! I'm not renowned for my patience!"

    "The answer to the question is yes. I did kill him."

    "Can you play any other tune?"

    "What a helpful chap."

    "Q, have I ever let you down?"
    "Frequently!"

    "Let's try reverse; that's backwards."

    "You seem to know your subject, Mr. Sterling."
    "One tries."
