I don't see too many "awful" movies on that list. Except maybe Soylent Green... and that Jerry Maguire BS.

I didn't say they're all awful, I just said that there are a lot of newer movies who would actually deserve a mentionning. "Cowabunga"... everyone knows it, al lot of people use it, why is it not in that list? Another one I hear quite often around here is also from a TMNT-movie (I can't remember which one, I don't know what scene but I do know that Raph said it): "And now... now what?" along with the great pronounciation. I mean, I have never heard someone saying "Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore," in my whole life.

I have alot, too. That's used alot.

Touche. Good Lord. 'I'm king of the world?' Ugh.

I thought there were waaaaaay too many Casablanca quotes on there. BUT, of all the one's they DIDN'T use... 'Here's lookin' at you, kid.' SHOULD have been on there. Oy.

And no Blue's Brothers?? At least 'It's a hundred miles to Chicago... etc.' shoulda been there.

And I agree on the Wonka quote, too.

Vincent: "Have you ever given a foot massage?"
Jules: "Oh, don't tell me about foot massages. I'm the foot f***in masta!"
Vincent: "You given a lot of 'em?"
Jules: "Sh*t, yeah! Got my own technique down and everything, I don't be ticklin' or nuthin'."
Vincent: "Would you give a guy a foot massage?"
Jules: "...F*** you!"
Vincent: (laughs) "You give 'em a lot?"
Jules: "F***...you!"
Vincent: "You know, I'm kinda tired. I could use a foot massage myself!"
Jules: "Hey, hey, hey, you best back off. I'm gettin' kinda pissed here!"

Does that tell you anything? Yes, Tarantino movies are overrated. Sure, they look good, they are fun to watch, but they're nothing that's really worth quoting. All they babble is just random stuff with no rwelation to the scene it is in. And that's what makes a good movie quote IMO. It must tell you something about the scene it is in and it has to mean something for the whole movie.

Are you guys serious with the Kansas-quote?

Well, IMO, movie quotes are also meant to entertain as well as relate to the story, but I see your point.

As for the Kansas quote, I myself have never heard anybody recite it. Again, not enough entertainment value. At least not for this generation.

Heck yes I'm serious with the Kansas quote. I, myself, say it all the time, lol. And no, I do not live in Kansas.

And I thought it was better that they used all older movies, because they are what the movies of today are derived from. I dont think todays movies are as great as older ones. How many ACTUALLY scary movies are there out there? None. Because we as a people have been desensitized to it. Now, back then, they were true originals. Do I agree with all the quotes? Nope.

And Ben, not enough entertainment value for the Wizard of Oz?? Oh my God.

'Not for this generation'... That statement really saddens me. If 'this generation' can't find entertaiment in a classic film that embodies imagination and fantasy, well... that doesn't surprise me. I worked in a school. I've seen kids now. It's sad and scary that they MUST have all these extreme things happen to find any entertainment in things. What a depressing state of affairs this world is in.

Mark - Renton - "some of his solo stuffs not bad."

Sick Boy -"no its not bad, but its not great either. and in your heart you kind of know that allthough it sounds all right, its actually just shite."

Mark - Renton - "so who else?"

Sick Boy - "Sean Connery, Charlie Nicholas, Elvis Presley, Malcolm Mclaren and David Niven."

Mark - Renton - "Right, so we all get old and then we cant hack it anymore. is that it?"

Sick Boy - "Yeah!"

Mark - Renton - "thats your theory?"

I'm with you! I LOVE the wizard of Oz. Remember the first time you saw it? It is magical. It made me want to see some of the old classics.

I don't think I would have made my list up with all the same quotes either...but they sure are fun to talk about

I used the "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore" quote once after I had passed the Kansas Border into Missouri. I was promptly smacked in the back of the head by my dad.

I shudder to think what this Top 100 Quotes list would look like if my parents had anything to do with it. They are sci-fi spouting pop-culture junkies, and one cannot hold a conversation with them without "There are not the droids you're looking for", "Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy!" or "Resistance is futile!" coming up at least once.

Sorry, JD.

What I meant was the quote istelf. The movie is awesome on its own right. I just think that quote is a little outdated, that's all. It didn't really have a lasting effect on my part. That's what I meant by no 'entertainment value.'

Hope I cleared up that little misdemeanor. You know me, JD. I would never shut down my friends' movie spirits.

I'm like the Scarecrow; still getting used to my brain.

Well, Cowabunga is really famous... especially with the 80ies youth. And I believe Splinter said it in the first movie. But I could imagine that the use of all these quotes suggested differs from country to country.

Well, but if you took Cowabunga in, then you'd have to add a lot more of these "trademark-sayings" (there's a word for that, but it just slipped my mind).
