Bah! Only 1 Star Wars quote, nothing from Monty Python, nothing from *any* of Mel Brooks's movies, I mean comon! Whomever compiled this list are absolute and utter hacks. I mean hell a quote from Top Gun? Comon!

Indeed, and from the Big Labowski, they forgot:
"The Dude abides." Pithy goodness.
In fact, The Big Labowski was chock full of comedy gold.

I have always felt that Brad Pitt's gift for comedic delivery is under appreciated. He demonstrates it again in Mr and Mrs Smith, where "I missed you" takes on a perfectly ridiculous meaning.
See it, under the 'guilty pleasure' category of films.

11. "What we've got here is failure to communicate," Cool Hand Luke, 1967.
I love this movie, and I love this quote. The Top Gun quote is pretty weak, but overall I agree with most of what's on that list.

Greatest. Movie. Ever.
"Donny, you're out of your element!"
Walter: "... and Dude, Chinamen is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American please."
Dude: "I'm not talking about the guys who built the #$%&ing railroads here."
Maude: "You can imagine where it goes from here."
Dude: "He fixes the cable?"
Maude: "Don't be fatuous Jeffrey."
"That rug really tied the room together."
(I had to copy the next one off imdb to make sure I got it right)
The Dude: Walter, ya know, its Smokey, so his foot slipped over the line a little, big deal.
Walter Sobchak: Dude, this is a league game, the winner of this gets to progress into the next round robin. Am I wrong? Am I wrong?
Smokey: Yeah but I wasn't over.
Walter Sobchak: [pulls out a gun] Smokey you are about to enter a world of pain.
Smokey: Yeah but...
Walter Sobchak: [shouting] A world of pain.
Smokey: Dude, could you...
The Dude: Jesus Walter, you bring a #$%&ing gun bowling?
Walter Sobchak: [shouting] Has the whole world gone crazy? Am I the only one who pays attention to the rules any more?
Smokey: Yeah but...
Walter Sobchak: [shouting] You think I'm#$%&ing around? I'm not #$%&ing around!
[points gun in Smokey's face]
Walter Sobchak: Mark it zero! #$%&ing mark it zero.
The Dude: They're calling the cops, man.
Smokey: All right, its #$%&ing zero. Are you happy now you crazy #$%&?
Walter Sobchak: ...Its a league game Smokey...
I think I quote The Big Lebowski at least once a day, one way or another, and I watch the movie every week or so. I think it gets better every time.
Donnie Darko is another extremely underrated movie that deserved at least one quote on the list. At least over stupid Titanic.
"Why are you wearing that stupid man-suit?"
Rose: "Do you even know who Graham Greene is?"
Kitty: "I think we've all seen Bonanza."
Gretchen: "My mom had to get a restraining order against my step dad. He has emotional problems."
Donnie: "Oh, I have those too. What kind does your step dad have?"
Gretchen: "He stabbed my mom four times in the chest."
Or, Memento:
Leonard: "Memory can change the shape of a room. It can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts."
I bettert stop now before I start talking about *all* my favorite movies :)

[right][snapback]81381[/snapback][/right] There is another quote from Top Gun that grates on my nerves every time I hear it.
SLIDER
You must have soloed under a lucky
star. First the MiG, then you slide
into Cougar's place.
GOOSE
It's not Cougar's place. It's ours.
ICE
What do you think it was? Was it
that MiG contact that did it?
GOOSE
Did what?
ICE
Got you here.
GOOSE
We're here because we're the best
flyers in the wing. Not because of
some MiG encounter.
SLIDER
What luck! Guys fly their whole
career without seeing a MiG up
close...You're famous.
ICE
You mean notorious.
Even the first time I heard it, I anticipated the ending of that last sentence as being infamous. It was set up to be that word and they blew it. Every time I see the movie, I hope that they will finally get it right. But no, they screw it up every time. :lol:

"I reject your reality and substitute my own."
"You don't know how strong you can be until strong is the only option."
"Think deeply, speak gently, love much, laugh loudly, give freely, be kind."
"Talk, Laugh, Love."
"Game over man, game over!" How could that line not be on a list of best movie quotes?
On the other hand wtf were were people thinking who chose "Rosebud"? "Citizen Kane" may have been a revolutionary movie but its not all that good really, and he didnt pull that line off at all in it.
"You ain't leading but two things right now: Jack and #$%&. And Jack just left town."
Its a great one indeed.
The "Top Gun" quote has to be there. The movie isnt that great, but anyone who rides a fast bike thinks of that line more often than they probably care to admit.
Weak movie - good line.

[right][snapback]81358[/snapback][/right] If I, by some cruel and inhumane law, was forced to choose a line from Top Gun, the "need for speed" one would not be that.
"I could tell you, but then I'd have to shoot you..." finds its way in common use more often.

Hmm. Here's one all we Diablo players plumb forgot.
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAINSSSSSSSSS!
I mean, it's so good the zombies on the blood moor pay tribute to their roots.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."

Well, I don't ride a fast bike. I liked Top Gun, but there is no way that I'd agree that ANY of its dialogue deserves a place in the "Top 100 Whatever Of All Time".
I'll agree with you on the "Game over man!" quote :)
