    'You ever get the feeling someone doesn't like you' is top tier.

    'Can you Swim' is iconic.

    Literally every line in TSWLM is quotable.

    Dick Clement and Ian LaFrenais wrote that line as they already used it in their T.V. series 'Porridge'
    Ronnie Barker delivers it better than Connery!

    Bumping this with:

    Who’s the blond?
    Where’d you find the Book of Mormon?
    My god you’re thirsty today!

    They'll print anything these days.
    Perfect delivery by Brosnan's Bond.

    "Some men don't like to be driven."
    "No some men don't like to be taken for a ride."

    "Aren't you in the wrong room Mister Bond."
    "Not from where I am standing."
    "Well since you are here would you mind giving me something to put on."
    (Bond hands her flip flops)

    "He suggests a trade. The egg for your life."
    "I heard the price of eggs was going up but isn't that a bit high?"

    Thunderball is wonderful, and Connery was on point with his delivery.

    And Roger was smooth there!

    One of my favourites is actually delivered by M in TMWTGG
    Bond: "....who would pay a million dollars to have me killed?"
    M : "Jealous husbands, outraged chefs, humiliated tailors, the list is endless!"
    Though Bond does get a good one in this film, when asking Moneypenny about Bill Fairbanks
    Moneypenny: "Poor Bill, I miss him!"
    Bond : " Well The Man with the Golden Gun didn't!"

    You shouldn't stare.

    Well, you shouldn't look like that.

    I loved the interaction between Bond and Moneypenny in Golden Gun.

    Bond: Fairbanks
    Moneypenny: Alaska
    Bond: No Bill Fairbanks double-o-2.
    Moneypenny: Poor Bill, I miss him.
    Bond: Well the Man with the Golden Gun didn't.
    Moneypenny: Officially that was never confirmed.
    Bond: Where was double-o-2 when it happened?
    Moneypenny: Beirut in a cabaret with a dancer called Saida.
    Bond: Beirut eh. Moneypenny you are better than a computer
    Moneypenny In all sorts of ways but you never take advantage of them.(M buzzes)
    Bond Oh just one moment darling.
    Moneypenny Yes James? (soft expectant voice)
    Bond: Why wasn't Scaramanga confirmed as the killer?
    Moneypenny: Because they couldn't find the bullet...darling!

    Slickest line from DAD: "Oh, they left ages ago."

    "saved by the bell" got a groan in the theatre when I saw it.

    The line about his liver being damaged and that it was definitely him got a big laugh in the theatre.

    The Name's Bond.... James Bond.
    Goosebumps-esque delivery from Craig's Bond, powered by Arnold's sublime track of the same name.

    "I DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS."
    I always liked that line. Even though he's at a bar later with Felix.
  • One that entertains me is Moore in TMWTGG after the fight in Beirut.

    "I've lost my charm!"
    "Not from where I'm standing."

    And I also enjoy Bond telling M "goodnight" in the same film while M is searching for Mary to make a report.

    "She likes you, I can tell."
    "You must give me the name of your occultist."

    While "occultist" is an interesting word, the original line is about an "oculist" :-) .

    For me, nothing tops “sergeant, make sure he doesn’t get away”

    Thanks for the clarification. :)

    True, DN had some stand out lines in there for sure. Perhaps my favourite from that film:

    "Both hands on the wheel, Mr. Jones. I'm a very nervous passenger."

    Course the big one that most people remember:

    "That's a Smith and Wesson Professor and you've had your six." fires two into the Professor.

    GF had some nice one liners too...


    "If you will excuse me, I must separate Mr. Solo from my gold."
    "You did say he had a pressing engagement."


    "Might have known M wouldn't book into the best hotel on Miami Beach out of pure gratitude."

    Yeah, Dr.No started it all. So it had to have those brilliant one liners for other films to follow to this day.
