~Favorite Movie Quotes ~

(”...But if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple. Join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you.”)





(”It started - for me, it started - last Thursday, in response to an urgent message from my nurse, I hurried home from a medical convention I’d been attending. At first glance, everything looked the same. It wasn’t. Something evil had taken possession of the town...”)(”Help! Wait! Stop. Stop and listen to me!...These people who’re coming after me are not human!...Look, you fools. You’re in danger. Can’t you see? They’re after you. They’re after all of us. Our wives, our children, everyone. They’re here already. YOU’RE NEXT!”)





(”It’s sad when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son. I couldn’t allow them to believe that I would commit murder. They’ll put him away now, as I should have, years ago. He was always bad and in the end, he intended to tell them I killed those girls and that man. As if I could do anything except just sit and stare, like one of his stuffed birds. Oh, they know I can’t even move a finger and I won’t. I’ll just sit here and be quiet, just in case they do suspect me. They’re probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. I’m not even gonna swat that fly. I hope they are watching. They’ll see. They’ll see and they’ll know and they’ll say, ‘Why, she wouldn’t even harm a fly.’”)





”(”...So we formed ourselves into tight groups...the idea was, the shark comes to the nearest man and he starts poundin’ and hollerin’ and screamin’. Sometimes the shark go away. Sometimes he wouldn’t go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya, right into your eyes. Y’know, the thing about a shark, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes after ya, he doesn’t seem to be livin’ until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white, and then - aww, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin’, the ocean turns red, and in spite of all the poundin’ and the hollerin’, they all come in and rip ya to pieces...”)





(”As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States...Even before I first wandered into the cabstand for an after-school job, I knew I wanted to be a part of them. It was there that I knew that I belonged. To me, it meant being somebody in a neighborhood that was full of nobodies. They weren’t like anybody else. I mean, they did whatever they wanted. They double-parked in front of a hydrant and nobody ever gave them a ticket. In the summer when they played cards all night, nobody ever called the cops”)





(”So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There’s more to life than a little money, you know. Don’t you know that? And here ya are, and it’s a beautiful day. Well, I just don’t understand it.”)





(”Look! The moonlight shows us for what we really are! We are not among the living so we cannot die, but neither are we dead! For too long I’ve been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I’ve been starving to death and haven’t died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea, nor the warmth of a woman’s flesh. You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner. You’re in one!”)

Wow. I didn’t know he was going to play that part. I wonder why they canned him?

"Which brings us to an interesting diversion... keep in mind that the filmmakers really did go back in time when they went back to the same locations to shoot the film all over again. As everyone has heard, Back to the Future was actually filmed twice—once with Eric Stoltz in the role of Marty McFly, and once with Michael J. Fox. But despite Studio proclamations that only a few scenes were involved, the truth is that the majority of the film was shot with Eric Stoltz. At each location we visited, we spoke to the folks we ran into (OK, so we don't follow our own rules!) and each of them confirmed that filming did, indeed, take place twice.

It seems that the young Mr. Stoltz, a fine and serious actor, was coming off a little bit too serious, especially in his scenes with Doc Brown. Through no one's fault, the all-important and all too rare chemistry between the two lead actors just wasn't working. So Bob Zemeckis, demonstrating the tremendous dedication to his art that has become so apparent in years since, asked Steven Spielberg if he could recast the film and reshoot the Marty McFly scenes. Obviously, the answer was yes...meaning that every scene that featured Eric Stoltz on screen had to be reshot. (Well, almost every scene. There are still a few shots lingering in the film that are clearly not Michael J. Fox! Keep that freeze frame remote handy!)"

Of the many lines in Little Big Man that I liked, my favorite comes from a scene where Old Lodge Skins is discussing his new wife with Dustin Hoffman’s character(If I remember the scene right)-

“She also has a very soft skin. The only trouble with snake women is they copulate with horses, which makes them strange to me. She says she doesn’t. That’s why I call her “Doesn’t Like Horses”. But, of course, she’s lying.”

“Because it’s judgement that defeats us.”

and

“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

can anyone guess? and no googling, I’m watching!

-Chickens go in..... pies come out.
-What kind of pies?
-Apple!

)Thanks MarineBrat.No clue what movie that is.

It's from "Chicken Run."  A delightful animated movie that parodies every WWII POW movie you've ever seen, except that it's chickens trying to escape their chicken coop before they're made into chicken pot pies.

Another quote from the movie...  "Now, the most important thing is, we have to work as a team, which means: you do everything I tell you."
