Movie Lines You Routinely Incorporate Into Your Day-to-Day Life
 

I know I'm not the only one who does this. Usually, it's with comedies. If I step outside on a hot day with someone, it's even money that one of us will look at the other and say "Milk was a bad choice!"

Sometimes, it's out of nowhere. Last week I was sitting at a poker game and started the "I still don't know to this day what those two Italian ladies were signing about" monologue from The Shawshank Redemption for no apparent reason.

It goes to ridiculous lengths at times; if, at one of said poker games, someone uses the phrase "chillin' out" for any reason, there's approximately a 95% chance someone will continue with the second-half of the theme song from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, at which point two or three others will join in, and it won't stop -- literally -- until they've gone all the way through.

So, what memorable lines, from movies or TV, do you find yourself using in day-to-day life on a daily basis? Have you ever quoted a movie without explanation and had someone not recognize it? Did you explain it to them, or just move on?

Very True, I tend to use quotes around people that only know what I'm talking about. My favorite is from Old School when Mitch is in the cab...

Mitch: I'm Sorry,Your seatbelt seems to be broken,What do you reccomend i do?
Cabdriver:I reccomend you stop being such a F*****. You're in the back seat.

I find myself using that one quite a bit around friends when they tend to complain about the most trivial things. It always sparks a good laugh and many other movie refrences

Oh man, I constantly do this, to the point where I question whether or not my entire vocabulary is made up of movie quotes...

"Is there anyone on this planet to even challenge me?!" - Superman II

"Who stole my frozen banana guacamole??" And HEY!! They also got away with my nude pictures of Ernest Borgnine!" - Don't remember where I got this one, but it makes people laugh...

"Only now do you understand...." - Return of the Jedi

"Very impressive, you speak chinese just like a native" - The Muppets Take Manhatten (damn, I'm lame)

"Aye, and if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a wagon" - Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home

"You must Chill!" - Say Anything

"You're stewed buttwad!" - Weird Science

and for any hungover folks... another weird sci classic...

"How would you like a greasy pork sandwich, served in a dirty ashtray?"

The whole movies I routinely quote the most from are probably Fletch, Quick Change, Joe vs. the Volcano and Young Frankenstein. There are at least a dozen lines from each of those I'll recite almost daily, including...

• "You should have seen my shoes."
• "Buenos dias. Coke and Taco."
• "Does this proposition entail my dressing up as Little Bo Peep?"
• "You don't mean Communists, do you, Sam?"
• "And a damn fine answer, if I do say so my damn self."
• "Melanoma, carcinoma, some kind of noma.

• "Not since breakfast."
• "He draws the foul!"
• "I'm a shepherd."
• "Ah, come on guys. It's so simple, maybe you need a refresher course? It's all ball bearings nowadays."
• "I'm afraid I'm going to have to pull rank on you, I didn't want to have to do this. I'm with the mattress poilce. There are no tags on these matresses. I'm gonna have to take you downtown."
• "Why don't you guys go down to the gym and pump each other."
• "You and your wife are currently alive, I take it."
• "If you shoot me you're liable to loose a lot of those humanitarian awards."
• "Thank god, the Police."
• "Smile. Say flesh. Look, defenseless babies!"
• "Sometimes thier noses are horns."
• "It's bad luck just seein' a thing like that."
• "They're on a blufftone!"
• "And thanks, for calling me 'friend'."
• "Get your own women."
• "Quiet! No codes."
• "He doesn't even understand colors!"
• "This ain't my dick in your back"
  "That's a relief."
• "Then I said, 'It's all over, Chuckles,' and wrassled him to the floor, but he got some gal in his sights and I had to let up. That's when he coldcocked me"
• "Oh, Sir. You forgot your map, and our million dollars."
• "Well, unless someone wants to make a higher offer? It's got a moon on it."
• "Ooooh, Baby; up yer butt with a cocanut!"
• "You could have given us help, but you've given us so much more."
• "I'm not arguing that with you!....I know he can get the job, but can he do the job?.....Who said that?....If I said that, I would have been wrong......I'm not arguing that with you...."
• "Not that anybody could look good under these zombie lights. I can feel them sucking the juice out of my eyeballs."
• "I'm not sick except for this terminal disease?"
  "Which has no symptoms."
• "You didn't get a second opinion on something called a 'brain cloud'?"
• "I bribed them, to sing us a song that would drive us insane and make our hearts swell and burst."
• "Damned if I know, Kemosabe. All I know is when you're making those kinds of calls, you're up in the high country."
• "Live like a king, die like a man, that's what I say."
• "Very exciting....as a luggage problem."
• "Wherever we go, whatever we do, we're gonna take this luggage with us."
• "I love you too. I've never been in love with anybody before either. It's great, I am glad. But the timing sticks, I gotta go."
• "I'm a flibbertygibbit."
• "I have no response to that."
• "Ovaltine?"
• "Put the candle back!"
• "Taffeta, sweetheart."

• I'll say it. DESTINY! DESTINY! NO ESCAPING THAT FOR ME! DESTINY! DESTINY! NO ESCAPING THAT FOR ME!
• "A riot is an ungly thing... undt, I tink, that it is chust about time ve had vun."

And on and on.

Aha, Holden, I had to read through your whole list waiting for the Young Frankenstein quotes. Would you believe I have the soundtrack from that album ... on vinyl? :D Anyone who quotes from YF is aces in my book, of course.

I'm surprised Yoda didn't mention the most obvious movie-quoting-instigator of all time ... and I bet this holds true for just about anybody here: All you have to do in a group of semi-normal people is quote ONE line (oh heck, half a line) from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and usually everyone else keeps going and pretty much quotes the whole rest of the movie.

"...with big nasty teeth!"
"... some call me Tim."
"We are the knights who say 'Ni'!"
"It's only a flesh wound."
"I got better."
"Bring out yer dead!"
"Run away! Run away!"
[singing] "I have to push the pram a lot!"
"What is your favorite color?" "Blue -- no, green!"


Well, okay, I'll stop -- but we all know I could have gone on forever. Quoting from The Holy Grail is addictive, so you're probably all sitting there running through entire scenes in your head. :)

Here's one we use a lot and yet I can't recall at all where it came from: "That's going to leave a mark...."

Anyone refresh my memory??

Holden, you missed the easiest one with Young Frankenstein: "Ah, sweet mystery of life, at last I've found you!"

"Catch you on the flip side"

i never started saying that untill i saw boondock saints when Funnyman rocco says it

and Young Frankenstein is my 2nd favorite movie by mel brooks
1st of course would be Spaceballs.

"You idiots! These are not them! You've captured their stunt doubles!"

"Lead the way, Jorge"

You can't negotiate turns. You can't signal properly. You can't maintain speed. You can't parallel park. Hell, you can't drive. (Gone in 60 Seconds)

......Being a lorry driver i can alway's count on a few choice phrases to shout at people who p*ss me off on the road!!!

Years ago, I used to regularly use quotes from Withnail & I in polite conversation ("I demand to have some booze!" etc etc etc) before realising that it was an incredibly uncool thing to do.

Maybe it was something to do with being a student? :D

This is a funny one

Yeeeeaaaaa Booooooooy- Shaun of the Dead

"Get the f_ck out of my way!" - Tom Green ("Gord," Freddy Got Fingered)

I've said that for years but when Tom Green, or Gord, said it to an old lady that got in his way while driving a car he made it a classic. It's from Freddy Got Fingered which is, by the way, the best movie to ever come out of the planet earth.

Terminatior........I'll be back, and for some reason I have to do it in the same tone and accent. LOL.
