Best Cult Movie One Liners...

“Smoke up Johnny” - The Breakfast Club

“How do you like me now flirty boy ?” - Natural Born Killers

I do in fact use quite a few one-liners from M/P’s Holy Grail, but the favorite in our family is probably “Your mother was a hamstair, and your father smelt—of elderberreez!”

Anytime someone says “what?”, I have to mutter, “…is your quest?”…jeez, am I an old geek or what?

My favorite and most oft-used misquote is from “A thousand Clowns”:
“just imagine my surprise and delight”
usually shortened to “imagine my delight”
or hijacked into “imagine my disappointment”
but must be said with the same deadpan sarcasm.
Usually quite effective.

One of my very favoritest ever is from “Tremors”:

“Broke into the wrong God-damn rec room, didn’tcha!”

(Bellowed by the armament-toting survivalist after he and his wife have just splattered one of the giant worms into alien-DNA jelly all over the basement.)

“All you of earth are idiots!” (I forget where that’s from)

Ratty reminded me of another couple of great Desperado lines…

“So what’s the guitar case?”
“A guitar.”
<false front pops up, revealing guns>
“Wait, wait, wait wait wait…not yet…NOW!”
<blamblamblamblam!>

or

“Maybe he was so upset about the lousy wrestling that in a
fit of depression, he went and cut off his OWN head…”
“You’ve got a funny accent Nash, you a queer?”
“Why, you cruising for a piece of ass?”

or my faves from Highlander:

'Hi, I’m Candy…"
“Yessss…of course you are…”

and
“Nuns…no sense of humor.”
Daylon

We must watch all the wrong movies :slight_smile:

My Cousin Vinny

Are you sure?

I’m positive.

No, there’s more.

Toy Story

You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity.

Men in Black

Hey, old guys.

Anything about that seem a little strange to you?

Mr Magoo’s Christmas Carol

We’re rep-re-hensible…

And, I’m sorry to admit that whenever someone says Brrrrrrrrrr, one of us is bound to say a hobbit.

I can’t believe you got this wrong.

It’s “First you wanna kill me, now you wanna kiss me? Blow!”

And of course, “Shop Smart! Shop S-mart!”

“Give me some Suger, Baby!”

From Scarface: “I kill a communist for fun, but for a green card, I’m gonna cut him up real good!”

From The Outlaw Josie Wales: Endeavor to perservere.

From Raw Deal: You shouldn’t drink and bake.

From MP&tHG: And there was much rejoyceing, Yea.

From Heavy Metal: Death, Death, Death to those who oppose us.

I thought it was “Vee haff VAYS of making you talk…”

Yes, you’re right, Lisa-go-Blind, and it goes back decades. Everyone knows that one, but no one knows where it originated!

Oh, well…

Since I play in a band, we use

Anyone: “One of you is buzzing.”
Drummer: “Well, don’t look at me”

quite often. Needs Liverpuddle accents, of course.

And my personal favorite (from The Fly with Vincent Price):

[thin voice] Help me! [high, thin voice] Help meeeeeee! [/voice]

** Pulp Fiction **

“Thank you, Vincent, that’s more information than I needed to know right now.” [Great for TMI people]

“Now, gentlemen, let’s not start sucking each other’s dicks just yet.” [Gets used a lot around our house during home improvement projects.]

** Blues Brothers **

“It’s 112 miles to Chicago. We’ve got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark, and we’re wearing sunglasses.” “Hit it.” [No college road trip was ever started without that mantra.]

“I hate Illinois Nazis.”

And of course…

** Princess Bride **

“Get used to disappointment.”

From UHF:

“Okay, do you want to drink from the FIRE HOSE?”

and of course

“Now it’s time to see if Poodles can fly”(throws one out the window, which lands with a thump on a pile of dead poodles. “Well, sometimes it takes them a little while to pick it up”

“I’ve got my country’s 500th anniverary to plan, my wife to murder, and Gilder to frame for it…I’m swamped…”

“Well…if you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything…”

  • Princess Bride

“The sherrif’s NI<ding!>”
What?
“I said the sherrif’s a NI<ding!>”
“He said the Sherrif is near…”

  • Blazing Saddles

Megaforce

Goodguys still win even in the eighties.

Great Clint Eastwood lines:

Outlaw Josey Wales:

“Dying ain’t much of a livin’ boy.”

“I’ve noticed that when I get to liking someone they ain’t around long.”
“I’ve noticed that when you get to disliking someone they aint around long neither.”

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly:

“There are two kinds of men in this world, those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.”
High Plains Drifter:

"From a distance, you’d almost pass as a man… but up close, you’re certainly a disappointment. "
“You’re going to look pretty silly with that knife sticking out of your ass.”

“What did you say your name was again?”
“I didn’t.”

[shalhoub]“Yeah, did you see how that door was sticking? I’ll have my guys take a look at that…”[/shalhoub]

Hey, I’m a production engineer. I live that line EVERY DAY.

Beautiful. I use that one a lot.

I didn’t notice this Blazing Saddles line posted…

“Where’re all the white women at?”

Another I use regularly…

“Do you have a fire?” - Roberto Begnini in Down By Law

The Great Tyrant enjoys resenting the expense of feeding orchids to slaves.
