[QUOTE=LurkMeister] I believe it was said _to_ John McClane just before he pulled off the gun he’d taped between his shoulder blades and shot the “terrorist” who was holding his wife hostage. But it’s been a while since I’ve seen it. [/QUOTE] Correct. The terrorist (Hans Gruber/Alan Rickman) was quoting McClane’s earlier line. ---

Let’s number the above 25: 25: “I will go see my family now.” And that’s from a movie currently playing in theatres; I’ll leave somebody else to decide whether to spoiler the answer. But here’s one of my favorites: 26: “Summer’s over.” (May not sound like much to go on, but it was from an iconic actor, one that people weren’t used to seeing in a death scene.) ---
