Caddyshack and Stripes get quoted a lot around here.

Holy Grail, Blazing Saddles, Princess Bride, Clue, and Airplane probably make the top of the most-quoted list for me.

There are specific single lines from other movies that I tend to use a lot, but not so much the whole movie as quotable.

A lot of the early M*A*S*H episodes (before it became The Alan Alda Show).

In my own recent posts I have referred to:

Hedley Lamar trying to steal people's land because of a railroad in Farmers in dry California decry water decision favoring fish

The "Harumph" scene with Governor Lepetomane in French far-right 'barred' from national unity rally

and the peasant "Dennis" being repressed by King Arthur in ‘Black Brunch’ protest confronts whites with ‘complicity in genocide’

Oh yeah and me and my best Mate Paul use: the following bit whenever we are out at the flea markets and we see good looking women. (but quietly to ourselves)

Sir Lancelot: [Sir Galahad the Chaste is being seduced by an entire castle full of young women] We were in the nick of time. You were in great peril.

Sir Galahad: I don’t think I was.

Sir Lancelot: Yes, you were. You were in terrible peril.

Sir Galahad: Look, let me go back in there and face the peril.

Sir Lancelot: No, it’s too perilous.

Sir Galahad: Look, it’s my duty as a knight to sample as much peril as I can.

Sir Lancelot: No, we’ve got to find the Holy Grail. Come on.

Sir Galahad: Oh, let me have just a little bit of peril?

Sir Lancelot: No. It’s unhealthy.

Sir Galahad: I bet you’re gay.

Sir Lancelot: Am not.

I love the Carol Burnett Show. Tim Conway was always adlibbing and getting the others laughing so hard they couldn’t say their lines.

Princess Bride is the most quotable movie of all time.

As for me, I quote from any and all including any Marx Brothers films...especially "A Night At The Opera".

I think it is becoming a lost art/talent because kids and even young adults simply don't take the time to watch the classics. They were all raised on Nintendo and moved on to PS and XBox. So sad. So many giggles.

"I woke up last night to find an elephant in my pajamas. What he was doing in my pajamas I have no idea. So we tried to remove the tusks but they were too tight. So we took him to Alabama where....the tusks-a-loosa."

Ok, but the one head scratcher for me is, what the heck was “Ah, yes The Doctor Gillespie Killings” about? I have no clue.

Lots of great classic 70's SNL skits, before the PC Police starting cracking down:

How are they going to know to use the new cover letter on their TPS reports if they haven’t seen Office Space?

I quote Groundhog Day quite a bit. Coneheads too. Super Troopers. Life of Brian. Holy Grail. Blazing Saddles. How ‘bout some more beans, Mr. Taggart?

The numbers are by the movies I listed at most it was 3/5 but that was for a newer early 90s film. Everything else was only 1/5 or 2/5 at best. About 1/2 on the list they hadn’t even heard of or no one had seen.

I finally had to go look that one up on the internet. It's a dud.
