You think that if you get a little wife…or girlfriend that you don’t pay? You pay. Then you can’t be sure you’ll get it. With Naomi…You pay, and you get it. You get it good.

_Soylent Green_ and _Silent Movie_ (as uttered by Marcel Marceau, no less), respectively.

Both from _Groundhog Day_.

_The Social Network_ (a very bland name for a pretty good movie).

> They don’t talk about broads - nothing. Ya never hear Little Joe say, “Hey, Hoss, I went to Virginia City and I saw a girl with the greatest ass I’ve ever seen in my life.” They just walk around the Ponderosa: “Yes, Pa, where’s Little Joe?” Nothin’ about broads. I don’t think I’m being too picky. But, if at least once, they talked about getting horny. I don’t care if you live on the Ponderosa or right here in Baltimore, guys talk about getting laid. I’m beginning to think that show doesn’t have too much realism.

I think this is from _Diner_.

The first is correct - it’s good to be the King.  
The second is not - too modern.
