  3. “Here’s good luck to you, kid” Bogart ad-libbed and changed it to “Here’s looking at you, kid.” It sounded so good that they used it four times in Casablanca.

  5. “Life is like a box of chocolates. Sometimes you get that really gross one that you have to spit back out.” - not included in Forrest Gump

I think we have different interpretations of the topic meaning. 1 - 3 are real occurrences while 4 and 5 are made up for humor (unless my google-fu has completely left me.)

I’m going to hazard that #1 wasn’t a real occurrence. Roy Scheider famously ad-libbed the “gonna need a bigger boat” line.

Uh, yeah-- I meant made up, un-snappy versions that never would have made it into the vernacular like the real line did. But if people know real examples of clunkers that got punched up for the final cut, that’s fine.

But I might have miscounted.” - Dirty Harry

OK, I’ll play along.
