    Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

    Henry Jones, Sr
    "We named the dog 'Indiana'."
  • King Kong (Original)

    'Oh, no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was Beauty killed the Beast.'

    One of the best films ever made - and a beautiful line to end the film.
  • The author asked for some standout lines from movies but there's been some entire paragraphs of dialog submitted here

    That said

    In no particular order or timescale



    Commando/1985 - (Schwarzenegger) - 'Let off some steam Bennett'

    'I eat green berets for breakfast and right now I'm very hungry'

    'I let him go'


    Apocalypse Now/1979 - (Duvall) - 'I love the smell of napalm in the morning'


    Midnight Express/1978 (Davis) - 'I hate you, I hate your people, I hate your nation, and I F@#% your sons and daughters because they're pigs. You're a Pig!, You're all Pigs!'


    Trainspotting/1996 (McGregor) - 'Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing spirit- crushing game shows, stuffing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, f'd-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that?'


    Dr No/1962 (Connery) - 'Bond, James Bond'

    GoodFellas/1990 (Pesci) - 'The 'Am I funny' lines , no need to elaborate

    Planet of the Apes (original)

    I don't know if this line makes this particular movie famous but it should be one of the great lines in cinema history.
    Movie : Hombre 1963
    Female stagecoach passenger to Richard Boone: "You take your hat off to a lady, you are g gentleman"
    Richard Boone: "My Mama always told me to take off my hat to a lady. Whatever else I take off depends on how lucky I get."
  • "I ain't got time to bleed" (Predator)
    Classic. This movie is full of 'em. 'Run, get to da choppa!'

    Optimus Prime:
    "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings."
    "One shall stand, one shall fall."

    The former is his quote according to the toy boxes (and he got to say it in the 2007 film) while the later came from 1986's Transformers: The Movie.

    Yes, you can always count on Family Guy to be irrevocably immature on all counts. What horrid television.

    I like family guy at times, but alot of the time the jokes are just pointless and don't mean anything. South park did a funny episode about it. American dad is pretty funny though, because it relies on actual jokes instead of cut-away gags like family guy.

    Just a few that have always stayed with me (I'll add more soon):

    Eastwood in Dirty Harry: "Make my day." Classic and everyone I know has used this catchphrase I some point in their life.

    Craig in CR opening after cutting off the bad guy (what was his name? sorry!) who was explaining to Bond that his second killing would be ... ;
    "Yes, considerably." I love that he didn't let him finish that line, and delivered it in such a laconic way.

    Brando in On the Waterfront "I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody ..." such raw and powerful emotion.

    Liv Tyler in LOTR as Arwen responding to her dad's despairing comment that nothing is certain in the world, *Some things are certain." Beautifully done (as was the whole movie)

    Telly Savalas on tv as Kojak: "Who loves ya, baby?" just so perfect coming from him.

    Well, I am not a big Cruise fan, but you did just remind me of Meg's line in Top Gun: "Take me to bed or lose me forever!" (nothing wishy washy about that, eh?) :)

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You made my day with that first one! Oh man, what a corny yet classic movie. Batman running around with a cheesy looking bomb, dodging babies in strollers and nuns walking down the street, all while the bomb certainly would have already blown up! An even funnier line from that movie that I remember well is, "Confound it! The batteries are dead!"

    Kint in The Usual Suspects: Keaton always said, "I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of him." Well I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze.
