Minister: Leslie escaped with a small friar.
Prof. Fate: He escaped with a chicken?!

And if I know someone's quoting something or if I hear it a few times and realize it's a quote, I'll usually ask where it's from. Like "There can be only one." Never saw the movie, but I know the line.
As for the list, there are movies that I haven't heard of, or have heard of but have forgotten. And there are lines from movies that I have seen but just don't remember.
And toward the bottom there are a few lines that are probably interchangeable with a hundred other lines.

It's number 36.
From "Highlander" 1986.
"I hate snakes, Jacques, I HATE 'em!"
"AW, show a little backbone!!"
Princess Bride: "Inconcievable" "You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means"
"My name is Inigo Montoya, You killed my father, prepare to die"
"No more rhymes I mean it! Anybody got a peanut?"
"Vacation" "Real tomato ketchup Eddy?" "Eddy says I can quit one of my jobs when the baby comes" and "The government says the plate in my head isn't big enough"
Pretty much anything from The Spinal Tap "What's wrong with being sexy?"..
"Dogs and cats, living together... Mass hysteria!!"
I beg to differ. The list omitted so many of the Godfather classic quotes, it's not worthy of discussion. Here are just a few of the ones they missed, from Godfathers I and II:
1) Leave the gun, take the cannolis.
2) It's not personal, Sonny. It's strictly business.
3) Luca Brazi sleeps with the fishes.
4) I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart, you broke my heart.
5) I spent my whole life trying not to be careless. Women and children can be careless but not men.
6) I don't feel I have to wipe everyone out, Tom. Just my enemies.
7) If anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it is that you can kill anyone.
8) In my home! In my bedroom where my wife sleeps! Where my children come and play with their toys. In my home.
9) In Sicily, women are more dangerous than shotguns. [In Italian]
10) That's my family, Kay. It's not me.
11) Do you spend time with your family? Good. Because a man that doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.
12) Tattaglia's a pimp. He never could've out-fought Santino. But I didn't know until this day that it was Barzini all along.
13) What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they will fear you.
14) Look how they massacred my boy.
15) Never let anyone outside the family know what you're thinking.
16) We're both part of the same hypocrisy, Senator. But never think it applies to my family.
This is just a few quotes off the top of my head. (This AFI piece really ticked me off.)
OK, this one gets a lot of use in my family (I don't know why) "What better way to say 'I Love you' than with a spatula?" (UHF)
But...where's Monty Python? "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!" "I seek the Grail"
Indeed! This is the yardstick by which all truly good rankouts are measured!
I enjoyed your post, but you need to get out more :)
can't forget those!!

Good morning.
" know what woke you up, I just slit your throat".
That's from "Missouri Breaks".

Regarding "Plastics."
A family friend is making a career recommendation to Dustin Hoffman, who has just graduated from college. Hoffman is walking through the party, watching his parents' friends, all phonies and artificial, and his father's friend takes him aside to tell him his future is in plastics. A little obvious irony.
I believe that is:
"The pellet with the poison's in the Vessel with the Pestle.
The Chalice from the Palace has the brew that is true.
Right. But there's been a change: they broke the chalice from the palace!
The pellet with the poison's in the Flagon with the Dragon.
The Vessel with the Pestle has the brew that is true."
I love that movie...
