Thanks Tamar1973(((Hugs)))
I love W.C. Fields!!
I really liked that movie, also liked Wyatt Earp. We watched both movies, then walked the streets of Tombstone and it made history (his story) come alive. Great trip!
How about...
It seems you’ve been leading two lives...
- Mr. Smith to Neo
Good one don-o.
Bounty hunter #1: You’re wanted, Wales.
Josey Wales: Reckon I’m right popular. You a bounty hunter?
Bounty hunter #1: A man’s got to do something for a living these days.
Josey Wales: Dyin’ ain’t much of a living, boy.
I do too L0L and groucho!
One of the greatest scenes in the movies. The taxi ride in “On the Waterfront.” Charlie is Rod Steiger; Terry Malloy is Marlon Brando.
Charlie: Look, kid, I - how much you weigh, son? When you weighed one hundred and sixty-eight pounds you were beautiful. You coulda been another Billy Conn, and that skunk we got you for a manager, he brought you along too fast.
Terry: It wasn’t him, Charley, it was you. Remember that night in the Garden you came down to my dressing room and you said, “Kid, this ain’t your night. We’re going for the price on Wilson.” You remember that? “This ain’t your night”! My night! I coulda taken Wilson apart! So what happens? He gets the title shot outdoors on the ballpark and what do I get? A one-way ticket to Palooka-ville! You was my brother, Charley, you shoulda looked out for me a little bit. You shoulda taken care of me just a little bit so I wouldn’t have to take them dives for the short-end money.
Charlie: Oh I had some bets down for you. You saw some money.
Terry: You don’t understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let’s face it. It was you, Charley.
Lone Watie: How did you know which one was goin’ to shoot first?
Josie Wales: Well, that one in the center: he had a flap holster and he was in no itchin’ hurry. And the one second from the left: he had scared eyes, he wasn’t gonna do nothin’. But that one on the far left: he had crazy eyes. Figured him to make the first move.
Lone Watie: How ‘bout the one on the right?
Josie Wales: Never paid him no mind; you were there.
Lone Watie: I could have missed.
NOT A LINE, BUT AN EXCHANGE - ENJOY!

Man in Black: All right. Where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right... and who is dead.
Vizzini: But it’s so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet or his enemy’s? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You’ve made your decision then?
Vizzini: Not remotely. Because iocane comes from Australia, as everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.
Man in Black: Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
Vizzini: Wait til I get going! Now, where was I?
Man in Black: Australia.
Vizzini: Yes, Australia. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder’s origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You’re just stalling now.
Vizzini: You’d like to think that, wouldn’t you? You’ve beaten my giant, which means you’re exceptionally strong, so you could’ve put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you’ve also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You’re trying to trick me into giving away something. It won’t work.
Vizzini: IT HAS WORKED! YOU’VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! I KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!
Man in Black: Then make your choice.
Vizzini: I will, and I choose - What in the world can that be? [Vizzini gestures up and away from the table. Roberts looks. Vizzini swaps the goblets]
Man in Black: What? Where? I don’t see anything.
Vizzini: Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. No matter.First, let’s drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.
[Both the Man in Black and Vizzini drink ]
Man in Black: You guessed wrong.
Vizzini: You only think I guessed wrong! That’s what’s so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha...
Vizzini: [Vizzini stops suddenly, and falls dead to the right]
Buttercup: And to think, all that time it was your cup that was poisoned.
Man in Black: They were both poisoned. I spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder.

I just returned from a trip to Shanghai (where FR is not available on the internet) I hate that I missed this thread, but... have had GREAT FUN catching up. Here are my personal favorites:
“Is that a 10 gallon hat? Or, are you just happy to see me?” - Blazing Saddles
“I’m afraid you’ve caught me with more than my hands up!” - Sean Connery as 007 in Diamonds are Forever
“Is this heaven? No? Oh... I was afraid of that. Oh well... Sometimes the magic works, sometimes it doesn’t” - Chief Oddskins , Little Big Man
“You can’t leave! All the plants will die” - Bill Murray Stripes
“First, you must give us all a GOOD spanking. And then, the oral sex”. “Well, perhaps we could stay a BIT longer...” - Monty Python Holy Grail
Another way to look at this is... what are the MOST QUOTABLE movies ever?? For me, they are
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Napoleon Dynamite
Stripes
Cool Hand Luke
Caddyshack
Airplane..
But... I could list a 100!
I have yet to see that movie, can you believe it?
Dorothy: I’ve got a witch mad at me and you might get into trouble!
One of my Favourites from the episode where they skerwer “Prince of Space”.
Crow (upon seeing the goofy periscope-stlye scanner): I am the lemon zester of destruction.
Also, the short that was shown before “Bloodlust” (the short was about life on a diary farm):
Child: Let’s go talk to unlce Jim!
Crow: Jim is an edgy man who should not be riled.
Of course ther are sooooooo many more!

I was thinking of the line...”you keep using that word, I don’t think it means what you think it means”. Also, Princess Bride
The classic ANIMAL HOUSE.
Dean Wermer speaking to Flounder.
