..."What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach."

Pure classic!!!

Is there any Movie line that can beat this???

Or so it seems to me...

In the spirit of the Christmas season,

Clark: "Hey. If any of you are looking for any last-minute gift ideas for me, I have one. I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people and I want him brought right here, with a big ribbon on his head, and I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, fore-fleshing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, d*ckless, hopeless, heartless, fat-a$$, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey $hit he is. Hallelujah. Holy $hit. Where's the Tylenol?"

Nobody's walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas. No, no! We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here! ... hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny f'ing Kaye!

or, "Louie, this looks like the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

Although my favorite game with movie lines is called "the movie pants game". In it, you simply take your favorite lines from movies, and substitute the word pants for any other word in the line. Examples:

"I find you lack of pants disturbing."

"We'll always have pants."

or "What we have here is failure to pants."

I love that movie.

Sherry in 'Logjammin': [on video] You must be here to fix the cable.
Maude Lebowski: Lord. You can imagine where it goes from here.

Stuff like this:

'A scratch?! Your arm's off!'
'No, it isn't.'”
Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)


There's nothing an agnostic can't do if he doesn't know whether he believes in anything or not”


'What? Ridden on a horse?'
'Yes'
'You're using coconuts!'
'What?'
'You've got two empty halves of coconuts and you're banging them together!'
'So?'”

Okay, I'm sorry... I'll share that one with you... Forgot my manners with all the trolls hassling me lately...

My other one is from "Little Big Man" (which has some other real jewels as well). I just tried Googling for the exact words but came up empty... It's from Chief Dan George (Old Lodge Skins) and here's my approximate reconstruction:

>"Oh Great Spirit, I ask You to watch over my grandson. Please help him to keep from going crazy."

but I was always partial to this exchange with WC Fields:

Indignant Woman: You drunk!!

WC Fields: And your crazy! I'll be sober tomorrow, but you'll be crazy for the rest of your life.


I think Churchill is attibuted with a similar quote.

Ah, I've got a few things attributed to Churchill. First, the one you referred to:
%
Woman on Street: Sir, you are drunk; very, very drunk.
Winston Churchill: Madame, you are ugly; very, very ugly.
I shall be sober in the morning.

%
George Bernard Shaw once sent two tickets to the opening night of one of
his plays to Winston Churchill with the following note:
"Bring a friend, if you have one."

Churchill wrote back, returning the two tickets and excused himself as he
had a previous engagement. He also attached the following:
"Please send me two tickets for the next night, if there is one."
%

These types of statements led to the following parody:

%
Churchill was known to drain a glass or two and, after one
particularly convivial evening, he chanced to encounter Miss Bessie Braddock,
a Socialist member of the House of Commons, who, upon seeing his condition,
said, "Winston, you're drunk." Mustering all his dignity, Churchill drew
himself up to his full height, cocked an eyebrow and rejoined, "Shove it up
your ass, you ugly cunt."
When the noted playwright George Bernard Shaw sent him two tickets to
the opening night of his new play with a note that read: "Bring a friend, if
you have one," Churchill, not to be outdone, promptly wired back: "You and
your play can go fuck yourselves."
-- "The Churchill Wit", National Lampoon

Batches! I don' need to show you no steenkin' badges!

Or my second favorite is from a really old movie called Dinner at Eight. Slutty Jean Harlow is telling dowager Marie Dressler that in the future machines will replace every human profession, to which Marie looks Jean up and down and tells her "Oh my dear that's something you'll never have to worry about."

I like everything I've seen so far.

One of my all time favorite movies is FLETCH. There are dozens of great lines, but this one seemed appropriate for the circular reasoning that the LDS church promotes:

Madeline: I'm sorry, who are you again?
Fletch: I'm Frieda's boss.
Madeline: Who's Frieda?
Fletch: My secretary.

Gotta love the geometry of this short, but succinct conversation!

One that would fit in with leaving Mormonism,
"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in"

Other favorite lines:

"What else do you think we're doing out here in the middle of the desert?"

"I have a bad feeling about this"

"Here's looking at you, kid"
