Ha! I’ve used the line, “Very good, Kronk!” a lot when praising my children. Now my son (who is six) says it all the time!
Also, my sister and I will be ending a phone call, and one of us will often say, “Catcha later, Bill and Ted!” (I also can’t see a Circle K without thinking or saying, “Strange things are afoot at the Circle K!”)
And when my sister and I find we’re using a lot of movie quotes in our conversation, I’ll say, “Darmok and Jilad at Tenagra!”
I don’t use too many TV/movie quotes, since most of the people I deal with on a daily basis wouldn’t get the reference. A few my family and I do use:
Whenever someone asks “Who are you going to call?” the answer is always “Ghostbusters”.
Often when I see a box prominently labeled “fragile”, I point to it and say “Fra-gee-lay. Hmm, must be Italian.” (From A Christmas Story.)
On rare occasions, when I see something unusually large for it’s kind I’ll comment “That’s not a _______, that’s a space station!” (From Star Wars)
In my family, the first response to the question “What do you want for breakfast?” is almost invariably “Chocolate cake!” (From Bill Cosby’s Himself standup show.)
Seems like we stopped keeping up with pop culture around 1985.
“Waterskiing!?!?”
“I’m not a weenie.”
“No more quarters.”
“Gimme three chili dawgs… and a malt.”
“See that? That’s an ‘E’! That means ‘empty’, douchebag! Like your head!”
“Frog modified”
“Huh huh… what a space cadet I am. If I did that, who’d land the plane?”
Well, of course there is “your lack of faith is… disturbing” and “there is no try, young Jedi”. Only, we say it in Spanish and I was feeling too lazy to look for the originals.
Not from the movies but from our days playing Star Trek RPGs “siento un botijo en la fuerza…” (“I feel a botijo in the Force”, a botijo being a special pot used to keep water in and get it cold; it’s as low-tech as water-cooling tech can get and therefore sort of the absolute opposite of anything SciFi)
A reference to Sergeant York: “how do you hunt ducks?” said when someone is stumped by a problem.
If someone points out something, like a sunset or a flower, by saying “Look at that sunset,” I’ll sometimes reply, dramatically, “That’s no sunset. It’s a space station.”
When entering a darkened room, I’ll say, “Lights please?” (Linus Van Pelt, prior to his explanation of “what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.”)
If I’m having a stressful day: “Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.”
“Think of your secretary.” - Harvey Korman in Blazing Saddles, whenever someone has trouble inserting one thing into another.
“Work, work, work, work, work, work, work! Hello, boys, I missed you!” - Mel Brooks in Blazing Saddles, whenever someone says “Work, work, work!” I can’t resist finishing.
Sadly, I’m displaying my refined taste in movies here.
Twicky, I also use Robin Williams’ ‘Humor’ line, but no one ever seems to get it. Or usually any of the others, either… Good thing I don’t have much social life.
