Who is your favorite Supreme Being in films, and what is his or her best line? Skald, get in here!

And Mila Jovovich did have some good lines, just not in English. Her speaking that nonsense language was really adorable.

Though I think that the makers of that film sort of missed the memo on just what the words “supreme being” was supposed to mean.

I’ve got to go with Odin as presented in The Vikings (1958).

In fact, not many years ago I was asked to say “grace” at Thanksgiving dinner. So I did my best Ernest Borgnine Odin! and got a good laugh.

I’ve only seen about 20 minutes of the first one; boredom drove me to turn off the DVD player and go outside. The only reason I didn’t go on one of my long boring insane convoluted irritating commaless rants about it the way I did about Star Trek 90210 is that it doesn’t seem fair given how little of it I saw. I saw absolutely none of the third.

(Admittedly I did see the second in theaters; it was punctuated by my wife irritably repeating, every five minutes or so, “Where the FUCK is Aslan! Seriously, that minotaur died for no good reason!”)

Oh, I agree; I just didn’t remember any specific line of dialogue other than “Chicken!” And I wasn’t mocking her or the movie. Her delivery of “Chicken!” and “Multi-pass!” was hilarious. She did a lot with a little.

:: shrugging ::

I think they meant “ideal human specimen who in a just world would never be required to wear clothes unless she felt like it, and hopefully she never will.” :wink:

You know, you may be right.

You mean, he/she/it didn’t know?? What kind of supreme being is that?

Oh, yeah, that’s definitely what the phrase meant in that movie. I’m just saying that that’s not the usual meaning.

Bill Cosby as God and Noah.

“Right.”

“I believe it has something to do with Free Will.”

What does God need with a spaceship?
You had to know I was coming in here to post that one.

A fair to middling Supreme Being.

.

He was God’s representative Mr. Jordan in Warren Beatty’s version of “Heaven Can Wait”.

So James Mason was Metatron in a way? Alan Rickman played Metatron and claimed he was the speaker for God. Did he say anything for Alanis’ character? Hmmm…

He wasn’t quite a Supreme Being, but it’s still one of my favorite lines ever, from Superman…II? I think?

“KNEEL BEFORE ZOD.”
(Man kneeling, in desperation and horror): “Oh, god.”
(Zod, in kindly benevolence. “Zod.”

Never fails to make me giggle.

Not in a film, but a great line, especially with the rhythm it’s delivered:
God said “Abe”
Abe said “What?”
God said “You can do want you want, but
the next time you see me coming, you’d better run.”
[Comes right after :

God said to Abraham “Kill me a son”
Abe said “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”

and right before :

“Where do you want this killing done?”
“Out on Highway 61”]

Muuul tiiii pass!

You guys are all killing that line! :slight_smile:

It’s: Moool-tee-paahss. mooltipass.

God (George Burns) wants to send John Denver out with His message.

Denver: “How will they know it was You who sent me?”

God: “Hmm. Well, just give them one of these.” Hands Denver a business card, saying simply “God”.

Bada Boom!

Robin Williams as the Genie of the Lamp!

Genie: I’m free! Quick, wish for something outrageous. Say, “I want the Nile.” Wish for the Nile. Try that.
Aladdin: Uh, I wish for the Nile.
Genie: No!

From “The Green Pastures” (1936):

The Lawd remedies the shortage of firmament in his custard.

Here The Lawd tells Gabriel how he’s going to stop the moon from melting.
