“Prove It.” - Jack Wilson, Shane

“Wait! Don’t you want to hear my last words?” - Mickey Bergman, Heist

“Do it.” - Sgt. Barnes, Platoon

“A spear?” - Chief Phillips, Apocalypse Now

“Earn This.” - Capt. Miller, Saving Private Ryan

and of course: “It was fun.” - Kirk

“Evacuate? In our moment of triumph?” Grand Moff Tarkin, in Star Wars
(Apologies if I mangled the quote. I’m doing this from memory, and it’s been years since I last saw it.)

“Oops.” Rutger Hauer, in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

“My God! It’s full of stars!” David Bowman, in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

“AWWWOooooooooooo…” – Random Imperial Officer, Return of the Jedi

“Lost Tyree, lost Hutch, they came at us from behind-” – Gold Leader, Star Wars: A New Hope (This line was cooler, if longer and cheezier, in the book, IIRC, he continued to say “It’s your baby now!” before being shot down)

“She’s gonna blow!” - Random Black (African Correlian?) X-Wing Pilot, Return of the Jedi

“I’m hiiiiiiiiiiit!” - Random Y-Wing pilot, Return of the Jedi (Let’s face it, the Star Wars movies have lots of fighter pilot last-words)

“I hope your conscience is clear, Irishman!” – Russian Syndicate Enforcer (I think it was Chekov) - Boondock Saints

“I would have liked… to see… Montana.” – Vasily Borodin - Hunt For Red October

"You arrogant ass! You’ve killed us! – Russian Officer on the bad guy sub - Hunt For Red October

Vizzini, in The Princess Bride:

“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 of which 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.”

Far and away my favorite last words are spoken by Lord Kril in the very underappreciated film The Last Starfighter as his entire armada is destroyed and his command ship faces its doom:
Lord Kril: Damage report!

Kodan Officer: Guidance system out. Auxiliary steering out.

Lord Kril: Divert! Divert!

Kodan Officer: She won’t answer the helm! We’re locked into the moon’s gravitational pull. What do we do?

Kril stands up straight and distinguished and his “auto-monocle” flips over his left eye.

Lord Kril: We die.

:cool:

Okay, I’ll get the obvious one out of the way:
“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” Rhett Butler, Gone With the Wind

I know the line is in the book, but I’m sure it’s not in the movie. I’m getting old, but I don’t think my memory is that bad — not yet, at least.

“You are, and always will be…my friend.” Spock, to Kirk.

“Suuuuuuuperman”

-The Iron Giant

So did Rhett keel over from a heart attack after Scarlett closes the door? :dubious:

You’re right about Dave Bowman, though (regardless of what 2010 asserts)

“Yaaaaahhhhhhh!” - Red Leader

They came from…behind!" - Gold Five

“I can’t hold them!” - Red Ten

“No, I’m all right…ahhhhh!!” - Red Six (Porkins)

“I’m hit!” - Red Nine

“The guns…they’ve stopped!” - Gold Two

“Loosen up!” - Gold Leader

“I can’t hold them!” - Red Ten

“Wait!” - Red Three (Biggs Darklighter)

I resisted doing Star Wars ones in my OP, but as long as the door is open:

“Chessko kotuuda preeta gremkohhhh…da Osska!!” :slight_smile:

“From Hell’s heart I stab at thee, for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee. Ye damned whale.” - Captain Ahab, Moby Dick and Khan Noonian Singh (minus the “ye damned whale” :slight_smile: ), Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

“. . . now and at the hour of our death, Amen”

Fredo Corleone

Oops, misunderstood the OP, sorry. Ignore that one. Told you I was getting old. How about this instead:

“Hello, ET. I’m back.” — Randy Quaid’s character in Independence Day

“I god, Woodrow. It’s been quite a party.”
Augustus McRae, Lonesome Dove

Duke: The lights are growing dim Otto. I know a life of crime has led me to this sorry fate, and yet, I blame society. Society made me what I am.
Otto: That’s bullshit. You’re a white suburban punk just like me.
Duke: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Repo Man

Yeeeeehaw!
Major TJ “King” Kong, Dr. Strangelove

Rosebud.

That’s “Hello, boys, I’m back!” I love that line. :smiley:

And as long as we’re with this movie, there’s always:

“Oh, crap.” _Marty Gilbert

“Fly, you fools!” - Gandalf

"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. " - Obi-wan

“Not like this. Not like this.” - Switch (The Matrix)

“What are you prepared to do?” - Jim Malone (The Untouchables)

Not Movies:

“Let’s go to work.” - Angel (Angel)
“Bang!” - Spike Spiegal (Cowboy Bebop)

I think you got those two mixed up. Of course, let’s not leave the brave Imperial starfighter pilots out of this:

“Look out!” – TIE Fighter Pilot

"I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. " - Batty, Bladerunner
