> [@Leviosaurus](#): > > “The horror! The horror!” - Colonel Kurtz, **Apocalypse Now** Which, now that I think about it, should be accompanied by the final lines of Doctor Kurtz from **Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death** : “All right, I was exploiting the Piranha women. You don’t know what it was like. David Letterman, God, the horror… the horrow of that show… the horror.” _Raise your hand if you knew that **Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death** was based on **Heart of Darkness**._ ---

> [@critter42](#): > > Another great one (although I can’t remember if it’s exactly his last line, but I think so) is "You wanna fuck with me? Okay. You wanna play rough? Okay. Say hello to my little friend! " - Tony Montana, **Scarface** I think his very last line was “Go ahead! I take all you f$#@in’ boolets!” ---

> [@Max Carnage](#): > > from memory so forgive me… > > “Onccccce…a man…I was onccccce a man…ssssssss” - Cobra Commander, **GI Joe the Movie** Though it wasn’t very clear in the movie, Cobra Commander didn’t die. Later on in the show, some of his minions are carrying him around (apparantly unable to find anyone to match his unique brand of leadership) and he is un-snaked through some means or another. ---

“Do you have any famous last words?” “Not really.” “Not Really? Is that famous?” “The man is a buffoon.” However, while these were his final last words, the **Baron Munchausen** did not die at that time. ---

Sir Thomas More: I am commanded by the king to be brief, and since I am the king’s obedient subject, brief I will be. I die His Majesty’s good servant, but God’s first. Sir Thomas More: [to executioner, handing him his wages] I forgive you, right readily. Be not afraid of your office: you send me to God. Archbishop Cranmer: You’re very sure of that, Sir Thomas? Sir Thomas More: He will not refuse one who is so blithe to go to Him. If you don’t know this one, your classic movie license will be revoked! ---

> [@dotchan](#): > > Rem: “Take care of Knives for me!” It was just “Vash, take care of Knives!” In the original Japanese dialogue it was just “Vash! Knives!” And let’s not forget, “IT’S A GUNDAAAAAMM!!!” “Lalah Sun was a young woman who could very well have become a mother to me. You took away her life, so don’t you dare judge me!” “Lalah? Your mother?” Char Aznable and Amuro Ray, Char’s Counterattack “Don’t worry, my pretty one.

For ol’ time’s sake.” Sal Tessio (though he may have said something once he was in the car) “Must have been him, then.” Paulie (in response to “who farted?”) “Grazie.” Luca Brasi McCluskey: “I’ve frisked a thousand young punks.” Solozzo [in Sicilian]: We will stop fighting until your father is well and can resume bargaining. No vengeance will be taken. We will have peace, but your family should interfere no longer…" (to the “toll booth vendor”) “Sonafabitch! Come on! Come on!” Sonny Corleone “Whinnnnnnnnny…whinnnnnnny.” Khartoum ---
