Giles Corey: A fart on Thomas Putnam!

The Crucible 1996

 

[lovecraft68]

"Say goodbye to my wife for me, and I'll say hello to yours."

Bone Tomahawk starring Kurt Russell, a fantastic western/horror. The last twenty minutes of this thing is as disturbing and gruesome as it gets.

Kind of on a western kick today;
John Wayne in True Grit: "Fill your hand, you son of a bitch." and
Val Kilmer in Tombstone: "I'm your huckleberry."

Two classics. Right up there with Strother Martin from Cool Hand Luke "What we've got here is... failure to communicate."

 

[MillieDynamite]

Don't forget Paul Newman's misquote at the end, "What we have here is a failure to communicate."

Paul Newman, Strother Martin, they could be twins... LOL

Open Range 2003

[Charley Waite kicks Button off his horse. He falls into the river]
Button: What you do that for?
Charley Waite: Cheatin' at cards.
Button: I apologized to you for that.
[to Boss Spearman]
Button: Eh, Boss? I apologized to him for that.
Boss Spearman: Evidently he ain't over it yet.
Boss Spearman: A man's trust is a valuable thing, Button. You don't want to lose it for a handful of cards.

Charley: You the one killed our friend?
Butler: That's right. I shot the boy, too. And I enjoyed it.
[Charley pulls out his gun and shoots Butler]

Kilmer's Holiday is a quote machine.

I think my favorite is when Billy Clanton says to him. "Its the drunk piano player, I bet you're seeing two of me" at which point Holiday pulls another gun and says, "I got one for each of ya!"

 

[Shuntwell]

What do you think the Devil is going to look like if he's around? Nobody is going to be taken in if he has a long, red, pointy tail. No. I'm semi-serious here. He will look attractive and he will be nice and helpful and he will get a job where he influences a great God-fearing nation and he will never do an evil thing... he will just bit by little bit lower standards where they are important. Just coax along flash over substance... Just a tiny bit. And he will talk about all of us really being salesmen. And he'll get all the great women.

And before his duel with Johnny Ringo: Why, Johnny Ringo, you look like somebody just walked over your grave.

Saw a reel about that speculating that Holiday intentionally shot him in the left side of his brain so he'd die slow enough to now he as dying but couldn't raise his right arm to fire back. Don't know that it's true, but it's something I think Holiday would do, and makes the scene even better. Great movie.

Dylan Mee:
"I don't know. I guess I didn't listen to something she told me or something? I mean, I liked her. It's like you embarrass yourself if you say something, and you embarrass yourself if you don't."

Benjamin Mee:
"You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it."

Kilmer absolutely stole that show, but Kurt had a few good ones in there, too.

"Go ahead, skin it. Skin that smoke wagon and see what happens." Then, shortly after, "You gonna do somethin' or just stand there and bleed?"

"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future. Choose life… But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got heroin?"

One of the few straight westerns I've enjoyed.

I think the scene at the casino where Ringo and Holiday have their little exchange in Latin, then Ringo shows off the gun skills and Holiday mocks him by doing it with the cup is one of the best in any genre.
"That's Latin Darlin' looks like Johnny Ringo is an educated man. Now I know I hate him." Just epic. Ringo was very much like Holiday but like Doc said, "he was just too high strung." That scene really foreshadowed how it would end for Ringo.

Billy Zane as always does a lot with a minor role as well.

Right before Kurt confronts the dealer, when the dealer says "Its like playing cards with my brother's kids" always made me laugh because when I was young I was always badgering my uncle to teach me to play poker and he'd keep telling me it was a grown-up game.

From Avengers, very simple line but I hear it in my head all the time, especially at work.

Tony Stark. "Yeah, not a good plan." Just a great delivery.

 

[MillieDynamite]

This isn't from a movie but from a movie star, the great Humphrey Bogart, about the House on UnAmerican Activities Committee.

"They'll nail anyone who ever scratched his ass during the National Anthem."

I think maybe we're about to decedent into that type of government again.

 

[Deleted member 6903436]

Good choice. Pops and I watched Romulus. It isn't bad, considering how the Alien movies have gone bad recently. But the first two Alien Movies are so extremely better than the rest!

They should have stopped at Aliens.

The quote....."and by the way, I don't like the name! Ab Scam sounds racist!".....the reply......."Why do you care! Your Mexican!".......American Hustle

 

[MillieDynamite]

Well, @Stargazer_2398 they are all fun scares, but yeah, they need new blood. Only that hasn't worked well for them, either.

 

[MillieDynamite]

McNair: I can't say I'm very fond of the United States of America as a name for a new country. 1776 (it wasn't made in 1776, it was made in 1972)

 

[MillieDynamite]

John Dickinson: What's so terrible about being called an Englishman? The English don't seem to mind.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin: Nor would I, were I given the full rights of an Englishman. But to call me one without those rights is like calling an ox a bull. He's thankful for the honor, but he'd much rather have restored what's rightfully his.

1776 (Still made in 1972 not 1776)

 

[MillieDynamite]

One last 1776 quote.

Thomson: [reading Washington's letter] The situation is most desperate at the New Jersey training ground in New Brunswick, where every able bodied whore in the co... "WHORE?"... in the colonies has assembled. There are constant reports of drunkenness, desertion, foul language, naked bathing in the Raritan river, and an epidemic of the "French disease." I have placed this town off limits to all military personnel with the exception of officers. I beseech the congress to dispatch the War Committee to this place, in the hope of restoring some of the order and discipline we need to survive. Your obedient...
[drumroll]
Thomson: G. Washington.
Col. Thomas McKean: That man would depress a hyena.

 

[Belegon]

We'll always have Paris.


And of course, the most wonderful thing about quotes from Casablanca is the line that everyone thinks exists but doesn't. Nobody ever says, "Play it again, Sam."

 

[ShelbyDawn57]

From Avengers, very simple line but I hear it in my head all the time, especially at work.

Tony Stark. "Yeah, not a good plan." Just a great delivery.

My favorite from Avengers is two words; "Puny god." And of course the look on Loki's face after Hulk said it.

 

[Belegon]

I know you can fight. But it's our wits that make us men.


...and from the same film...


Your heart is free. Have the courage to follow it.


Both from Braveheart. Horrible movie when it comes to following the actual history, but great as a MOVIE.
