[QUOTE=Priceguy]  
_The Hudsucker Proxy_, one of my favourite movies, but I still can’t remember the “Hammerhead” line.  
[/QUOTE]  
Yeah, it’s one of my favorites too. The “Hammerhead” line is easily missed. Amy Archer is in the newsroom on the phone having like 3 conversations at once and she says this to the person on the other end of the line. The implication is that the other person is skeptical of her Pulitzer.

[QUOTE=Reno Nevada]  
You know what Jack Burton always says at a time like this…_Big Trouble in Little China_  
[/QUOTE]

Right! A great lazy Saturday afternoon movie full of quote goodness…

"Just remember what ol’ Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, “Give me your best shot. I can take it.”  
Still unanswered, Scr05:

“The one thing that bothered me, the one thing that stayed in my mind and I couldn’t get rid of it, that haunted me, was why. Why would she lie? What was her motive for lying? If my client is innocent, she’s lying, why? Was it blackmail? No. Was it jealousy? No. Yesterday I found out why. She doesn’t have a motive, you know why? Because she’s not lying… And ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the prosecution is not going to get that man today, no, because I’m gonna get him! My client, the Honorable Henry T. Fleming, should go right to fucking jail!”

[QUOTE=Kizarvexius]  
KZ03: “For every Jew you show me who’s not a Christian, Sir Knight, I’ll show you a Christian who’s not a Christian.”

- Spoken by a jester to a Templar. I’m shocked that this wasn’t obvious.

KZ05: “Assaulted by both one’s parents in the same evening. What is family life coming to?”

- Spoken by the crown prince after his mother (the Queen) slaps him.  
[/QUOTE]  
I’m going to go out on a limb and make a WAG that **KZ03** is _Ivanhoe_

But it is without fear of contradicton that I say **KZ05** is _The Lion in Winter_.
