Favorite movie quotes

That is strength, boy! That is power! What is steel compared to the hand that wields it? Look at the strength in your body, the desire in your heart, I gave you this! Such a waste. Contemplate this on the tree of woe. Crucify him!
Conan the Barbarian
 
“Who is this John Wick? You talk about him like he’s the boogeyman!”

“He’s not the boogeyman. He’s the guy you send to kill the fucking boogeyman!”
 
“Hello girls all over the world! Original King Julien here! I’d like for all you girls to move your bodies, and move them nice and sweet and sassy, all right? I like to move it, move it…”

- Madagascar
 
My all-time favorite most quotable movies:

1. The Godfather ("Leave the gun, take the cannoli").
2. Casablanca ("Here's looking at you, kid")
3. Princess Bride ("Inconceivable!")
4. The Terminator ("I'll be back.")
5. Road House ("You're too stupid to have a good time.") (my pick as the greatest pure trash movie of all time)
 
"Good, bad... I'm the guy with the gun."

- Army of Darkness (quite possibly the most quotable movie ever)
 
Ray, people will come Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you'll say. It's only $20 per person. They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it: for it is money they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. People will come Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.

Wendy: Is Mike Hunt here? (pause) Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?

Meat: Practically everybody in town, from what I hear.

[voiceover] "No trespassing" was enforced by Milo Pressman, the junkman, and his dog, Chopper, the most feared and least seen dog in Castle Rock. Legend had it that Milo had trained Chopper, not just to sic, but to sic specific parts of the human anatomy. Thus, a kid, who had illegally scaled the junkyard fence, might hear the dread cry, "Chopper, sic balls." But right now, neither the dread, Chopper, nor Milo was anywhere in sight.

Stand by Me

You'd think the screenwriter or director of the movie would have read the book it was based on or at least some story written by King. But no, they set the story in Castel Rock, Washington, not in the fictional Castel Rock, Maine.

  • Jack Torrance: The most terrible nightmare I ever had. It's the most horrible dream I ever had.
  • Wendy Torrance: It's okay, it's okay now. Really.
  • Jack Torrance: I dreamed that I, that I killed you and Danny. But I didn't just kill ya. I cut you up in little pieces. Oh my God. I must be losing my mind.
 
I'll take movie lines they could never use today for $1,000 Alex:

It's the .88 Magnum. They made it for him special.

It shoots through schools.
 
Sudden Impact 1983

Horace King: You've got to strain the remains for the fingerprints.
Harry Callahan: Well, this is the .44 Magnum Auto-Mag, and it holds a 300-grain cartridge. And, if properly used, it can remove the fingerprints.
 
Read up on it. Wayne was major pissed about High Noon and wanted a film where the Sheriff wasn't running around begging for help. That and all three films (Rio Bravo, Rio Lobo and El Dorado) tell essentially the same story with different actors in the supporting roles.
 
“We decided to make our biological weapon female so it would be more docile and controllable.”

“You guys don’t get out much.”

When you steal money, that's where you go. It's the Code of the West.

Hell, if I'd known that, I never would have held you up, but I got to steal something from you. Never stop a man for robbing unless you take at least something. That's the Code of the West.

Finders keepers. That's the Code of the West, ain't it?

No! I want this to be a fair fight. I'll shoot him in the back. It's the Code of the West.

Belle Nops:
These army drills are hard on the girls.

China Poppy:
Soldiers hard on, too.

Belle Nops:
You can say *that* again.
