Favourite Quotable Films.

Just thought I'd start a thread about peoples' favourite quotable films. I'd say one of my all-time favourite films that is packed with great quotes, is "Withnail & I". How could I not love a film that delivers lines such as "don't threaten me with a dead fish" and "we demand the finest wines known to humanity, and we want them here, and we want them now!".

Plus it launched Richard E Grant and Paul McGann's careers.

One of my all time favorite TV shows as a kid was the A-Team. They are about to have a movie come out, unfortunately with different actors as most the the original actors are now to old. The line I liked was (I love it when a plan comes together). That should go with most of what we do. We plan out our transition and if it comes together, we love it.

Love,

Sarah F

"Haven't you ever heard of the healing power of laughter?" Jack Nicholson 1989 Batman movie. All time favorite quote.

We have a consensus, Donna Jean, Carolyn Marie, Jean Davis and I decided that the number one most quotable movie of all time is "Airplane" with "Young Frankenstein" and "Blazing Saddles" right behind.

You can just imagine what the conversation was like.

"And don't call me Shirley!"

Star Trek

Excuse me… Excuse me. I’d just like to ask a question… What does God need with a starship?

-James Kirk, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier

Spock: Ahh, Mr. Scott, I understand you’re having difficulty with the warp drive. How much time do you require for repair?

Scotty: There’s nothing wrong with the bloody thing!

Spock: Mr. Scott, if we return to space dock, the assassins will surely find a way to dispose of their incriminating footwear, and we will never see the captain, or Dr. McCoy, alive again.

Scotty: Could take weeks, sir!

-Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country

How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life.

-James Kirk, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Spock: This is the new brig, Captain. It is escape-proof.

Kirk: How do you know?

Spock: The designers tested it using the most intelligent and resourceful person they could find. He failed to escape.

Kirk: This person didn't by any chance have pointed ears and an unerring capacity for getting his shipmates into trouble, did he?

Spock: He did have pointed ears.

-Star Trek V: The Final Frontier

Believing oneself to be perfect is often the sign of a delusional mind.

-Data, to Borg Queen, Star Trek: First Contact

Who said this in 'Cool Hand Luke'

"What we've got here is...failure to communicate!"

One of those famous but little known character actors.

Another I like,

"I'll have what she's having"

and

"Life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death"

Ah, the movies.

Someone is going to have to help me with the name of the movie. It's a quate i have used to lighten up some situations. In my best Jack Nicholson impersonation...."You want the truth. You can;t handle the truth!" The other one I like is from Beetlejuice, when he says, "Go ahead. Make my millenium."

"A Few Good Men" said to Tom Cruise playing a Navy JAG Lawyer at the beginning of the climax.

Right up there with 'Here's Johnny' and that great toast/restaurant scene in 5 Easy Pieces

Thanks Chloe for giving me the name of the movie. I was going crazy tryong to think of it. There is also another quote i like. Can't quote it exactely, but it's from the movie, Dances with wolves. When Kevin Costner's character state he wants to go west...to see it...before it is gone. Something I have always thought about. How great it would be, to see what this country looked like before technology etc. made it into something else.

Clint Eastwood movies are full of wonderful quotes.

One of my favorites is from "Unforgiven," when the Schofield Kid (Jamz Woolvett) tells William Munny (Eastwood) that the bad guys "had it coming."

Will Munny's reply: "We all got it coming, kid."

From the same movie, this exchange between Sheriff Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman) and Will Munny:

Little Bill: "You just shot an unarmed man."

Bill Munny: "He should have armed himself if he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend."

Wonderful movie. Also, lets not forget to give credit to the great screenwriters down through the years. They never get remembered by the public, and

deserve as much credit as the actors who delivered the lines.

"What we've got here is...failure to communicate!" Struther Martin

One of those famous but little known character actors.

Another I like,

"I'll have what she's having" "When Harry Met Sally" The woman in the dinner played by Director Rob Reiner's mother after watching Sally (Meg Ryan not me!) faking fits of ecstasy - that should get past the word filter and stay PG-13. :rolleyes:

and

"Life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death" "Auntie Mame!" by the same Character.

Ah, the movies.

Just for your further edification.

"One cannot behold the face of the gorgon and live!" Dr. Morbius "Forbidden Planet"

There are so many, but the ones that came to my mind for now are:

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

-"I was thinking how nothing lasts, and what a shame that is"

-"Did you know I was struck by lightining seven times?" LOL

-"You never know what's coming for you"

-"It's a funny thing about comin' home. Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same. You'll realize what's changed is you."

-"You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went. You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go. "

Forest Gump

-"I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is."

-"You have to do the best with what God gave you."

-Lieutenant Taylor:"Have you found Jesus yet, Gump? "

Forest:"I didn't know I was supposed to be looking for him, sir. " LOL

-"Life's a box of chocolates, Forrest. You never know what you're gonna get. " (I had to put this in...)

-"What's normal anyways?"

Cast Away

-"You never know what the tide will bring"

Uhhh... there are just sooo many... That's enough for now I think ^_^

"Oh, I like this one... One dog goes one way, the other dog goes the other way, and this guy's sayin', "Whadda ya want from me?'" (Goodfellas) (Everything else Joe Pesci says in that movie also works.)

"Another day to live through. Better get started." (The Last Man on Earth)

"Who is that?" "Wayne Gretzky? On steroids?" (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) (Wayne Gretzky on steroids is my automatic response to who is that.)

"Thank God for rednecks!" (Zombieland)

"We've put lots of money into this project." "And pointy things!" (Hulk vs. Wolverine)

"It's you!" "Yeah, it's us! Who are we?" (Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure)

In the movie "I shot Andy Warhol", and I think Andy said it to Candy Darling (who is a transvestite from the 60's) in real life as well.

Andy- "Oh Candy, how often do you get your period?"

Candy- "Oh I get it every day Andy, that's just how women I am!"

A Clockwork Orange style dialogue has someone crept into my speech patterns. I know it's also a book, but there's something about Mcdowell's delivery that is so quotable.

My favorite quotable movies are the Bill and Ted movies

"Be excellent to each other"

"Party on Dudes"

"If you're really us, then what number are we about to think of?"

"69 dudes!"

      So an update from me.   Had my endo appointment last night. Went very well and they are sending 3 months supply of estrogen (estradoil patches) and the anti-androgens whilst my Dr gets a shared care agreement sorted out. So happy, should start HRT tomorrow!! Cost for the 3 month supply is £70 total for me, so not too bad. Not told my parents about this yet, but them being in spain, not sure they need to know yet.   Can't wait to start, just got to think about where to put the patches now and wait for the changes...

      Good Morning    well it’s Friday for most, pay day for some.  For me it’s pay day but not Friday.  I work the same opening shift tomorrow.  I typically have Friday on Saturday and Monday on Tuesday.     @KymmieL it does sound like your shop has an issue and you are smack in the thick of it.  The new gal or guy often is.  We have an issue with new people not getting fully trained before being turned loose on customers.  Some struggle through it and some quit because of it.  I try to get them working with customers as quickly as I can but I stay right with them observing, helping, even jumping in when things are getting backed up to keep the stress down.  Not everything comes up during training so when things do, even later after trying is done, I try to help and explain.  Our ASM feels that once she has you scanning barcodes and taking money she is done training.  Generally, refuses to train me on things that she does, and questions why I’m doing something that she normally handles when I’ve been told to do it as part of my advancement training.     She and the cashier involved both keep trying to toss the manager under the bus over a hours of work issue and shifts.  I tell her I realize her issues and I’ll work what ever she needs.  Because of that I tend to get a better more consistent schedule.   Well, time to say Happy Trails to you, until we meet again.   Hi ho Silver, away   Willow

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."
