"Call me Snake", "Escape from New York", 1981

Anyways, a really odd list. I knew some of the quotes already, but didn't know where they come from. And I am getting sick of all this fake Hollywood-nostalgia. There's plenty of other good lines in newer movies.

Though some felt a little out of order, it was a pretty good list.

But no "Who ya gonna call"?

(I'm aware it was part of the theme song and none of the characters actually said it until the sequel but C'MON!)

This should be on there:

What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

High Fidelity.

Made me think "We can't stop here! This is Bat Country!" from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

List also needs some Back to the Future quotes. "88 miles an hour!", "ONE-POINT-TWENTY-ONE JIGGA WATTS!" or maybe some "Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." That movie was SO quotable.

Darth Never really said... "Luke, I AM YOUR FATHER!" and thats the line everyone repeats.

"He told me enough, He told me You Killed him!"

"No, I am your father."

So i can understand that line not being there, but still Sixth sense is so damned high on the list! Frankly My Dear, [Dubbed]I Love you, Lets Remarry![/dubbed]

casino is one of the most underrated mob movies of all time, but whatever critics said about it, its a violent masterpiece of the fall and rise of a mobster.
looking forward to the new remastered dvd that coming out this summer.

Quote 100 is really great...












































FOR ME TO POOP ON!









Anyway, that list pretty much sucks. I do agree with alot of the classics on there, but some of those quotes are just on there because mindless morons went to the theater to see those awful movies.

Some good ones no one mentioned yet:

-- Thug: What are you?!
-- Batman: I'm Batman.

-- Joker: You ever dance with the devil by the pale moonlight?

-- Joker: NEVER rub another man's rhubarb!

-- Joker: Batman? Batman?! Can somebody tell me what kind of a world we live in where a man dressed up like a bat steals all of my press?! ... This town needs an enema!
Batman; 1989

-- Willy Wonka: Please, stop! My chocolate must never be touched by human hands!
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory; 1971

And many many more.
