“Ok, ok. A killing machine designed for 27 things. Search and destroy, reporting back, discriminating between the dead and the living, navigating the return, calculating work arounds, executing self-repair, exterminating the…”
“Inspector Clay’s dead… murdered… and somebody’s responsible!”
(Unleashing a floodgate, I know…)
You’ll get a kick out of this. It’s screenscaps of a bootleg copy of Episode 3 and it’s hillariously horrible captions. The best part is how they translated Vader’s “noooooooo” scream.
soRRY! Gess Im just dum, then. I had honestly never heard of it. No need to be all “obviously” and “actually.” 
Y’know, that might not have been such a bad movie if Travolta hadn’t been constantly hamming it up.
Or if Travolta hadn’t been in it, for that matter.
You don’t need to have heard of it (I hadn’t). Un = not; obtain = to get; ium = an ending indicating an element. Thus, an element you cannot obtain. Not to mention the way the guy grins when he says the name, indicating that a joke is involved.
Right up there with “Kill the brain and you kill the ghoul” (from Night of the Living Dead).
So THATS how the “do not want” meme got started, awesome!
Here’s a real oldie from the movie “Bombshell” in 1933: “Your hair is like a field of silver daisies. I’d like to run barefoot through your hair!”
Not sure I remember this correctly but from Downfall, when the secretary first meets Hitler:
Hitler: Take a dictation. Don’t worry if you make mistakes. I’m a very bad dictator.
“I don’t want your laugh!” from Varsity Blues was a bit of a howler at the time.
The Rifftrax (MST3K alumni) Live Holiday shorts spectacular last year included the early Max Fleischer version of Rudolph…which included the climactic scene where (I’m not making this up) Rudolph is in his bed. Santa climbs through his window, sits on the edge of his bed, and says “Rudolph…I need you tonight.”
The audience completely lost it. One of the riffers (Bill Corbett, IIRC) said “we lost the next 3 lines, but it was worth it.”
Yes, these are all great ones but for some reason “rain” sticks with me. I occasionally just bust out with “It’s gon’ rain on yo’ head,” for no reason. Yes, I’m very strange, why do you ask. Whenever I can if I see someone has made a mistake, etc., I tell the other person involved, “Beat her.”
No one ever gets it.
Come to think up it, that was one of the most serious/comic movies of all times. The subject matter - incest, early teenage pregnancy, familial separation, spousal abuse, Jim Crow, etc., just didn’t lend itself to the lightheaded treatment and music. Maybe we didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Storm: “Do you know what happens when a toad gets hit by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else”
One of the dumbest lines in any movie I’ve ever seen (that was not intended to be dumb)
Every line uttered by John Wayne in The Conqueror. That’s John Wayne as…Genghis Khan. Suffice it to say they didn’t hire a dialect coach.
Here’s a taste.
I wonder if the pun works in German?
I vote for that line being intentional. The whole movie is lots of fun, a pre-code send-up of a movie star (played delightfully by Jean Harlow) and her hangers-on. Per imdb (link), John Lee Mahin, Jules Furthman, and Norman Krasna were the screenwriters.
Two others which to me sound more unintentional…
[ul]From The Women, 1939 (imdb), Lucile Watson: “Well, cheer up, Mary; living alone has its compensations. Heaven knows it’s marvelous being able to spread out in bed like a swastika!”[/ul]
[ul]From This Gun for Hire, 1942 (Google books), Veronica Lake (during WW II in the US) encouragingly to a multiple murderer: “This war is everybody’s business, yours too.”

Soylent green is made out of people!!! It’s peopllllllllleeeeeeeee!!!
