These lists, a bunch of people just sits around a table and throw crap out. 😉
The movie line that most appealed to warped sense of humor was when Danny DeVito answers the phone in RUTHLESS PEOPLE and says, “What’s that? Debbie? Yeah, she’s here but she can’t talk right now, ’cause she’s got my d___ in her mouth.” Then he hangs up and says, “Gawd, I LOVE wrong numbers.”

#1 — EXACTLY.
I hate lists like this. It’s like they tried to make sure they included all the great movies even if the quotes were stupid. Weak list, but good post.
Badges! we dont need no stinking badges! I like them, when I see a classic one that reminds me to go to Netflix and update my queue.
“Zed’s dead baby, Zed’s dead.”

It sounds like they “Got to know their limitations.” “Only at the end do they understand.” [We] ” paid the price for their lack of vision.” I suppose “we all having coming kid.”
Being serious, these sorts of lists are good for finding movies that you haven’t seen.
Favorite quote from Duck Soup:
Remember, you’re fighting for this woman’s honour, which is probably more than she ever did.
J/P=?
Too much repetition, some movies represented multiple times… Considering that there are far more than 100 great lines (and movies), I say it’s rather asinine to cite Casablanca four times (f’rinstance) and omit classics like, “Put. That coffee. Down.” Or, “Klaatu. Barada. Nikto.”
10. Or Jack Nicholson in easy Rider “nick, nick, nick, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Indians!”
I can think of a couple from Blazing Saddles that should be on there.
Hey, these lists are excellent, even when they are bad. Nice to see clips along with them even though I cant get Zamzar or Firefox extension to download it.
I would add “He had a face like a pig, and a personality to match.” although that might be from a book.
and from Duck soup? “If I got any closer, I’d be behind you.”
And as this is a clip show, they could/should include scense with no dialogue like in Dr Strangelove where the sign “Peace is our Profession” is getting shot to hell.
Films are our culture. Gotta love em.
One more ” I love the smell of napalm in the morning, smells like…………victory.
PC load letter? What the fuck does that even mean?
-Michael Boulton (Office Space)
Casablanca gets 4 quotes, Godfather gets 2, Gone with the Wind gets two, James Bond gets 2 and Jerry Maguire gets 2.
A few other classics:
“Rise and Shine Campers, and don’t forget your booties because its cold outside”
“No Ticket”
“The first rule of Fight Club is…”
“We are the knights who say …Nee”
“Yippee Kay Yay Mother F…”
“What Knockers! Why thank you doctor”
“All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I’m fine.”
“We’ve been going about this all wrong, this Mr. Stay Puft’s okay, he’s a sailor, he’s in New York, we get this guy laid we won’t have any trouble.”
“Bitch set me up,” from the surveillance film – Marion (crackhead) Barry.
Blade Runner: It’s a pitty she won’t live – but then again who does.
Holy Grail: We are the knights who say…
Ghostbusters: – Dogs and Cats – living together – MASS HYSTERIA.
Brazil: Listen, kid, we’re all in it together.
Matrix: Woah.
Return of the Living Dead: Braaaaaiiinns!
Fuck it, Dude. Let’s go bowling.
Christmas Vacation: “This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We’re gonna press on, and we’re gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny fucking Kaye!”
And this is normally a two hour show.
and who can forget…
