This is all because of Eden…it’s a sampling of my favorite and most quoted movie quotes. I did not include any from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, because Eden pretty well covered that one.
There are also a number of hilarious exchanges from these movies that I didn’t include, just because they were too long.
So, what does it mean that my most favorite movies were made from 1987-1989? Hmmm…
One question: do you need… someone, or do you need me?… Forget it, I don’t really care.
I gave her my heart, and she gave me a pen.
The rain on my car is a baptism, the new me, Ice Man, Power Lloyd, my assault on the world begins now.
I don’t want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don’t want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don’t want to do that.
Joe. She’s written 65 songs… 65. They’re all about you. They’re all about pain.
Why can’t you be in a good mood? How hard is it to decide to be in a good mood and be in a good mood once in a while?
You invade my soul.
“YOU MUST CHILL!! YOU MUST CHILL!! I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS!! CHILL!!
555-1342, that’s 5..5..5..1..3..4..2. 555-1342.
I don’t know, I can’t figure it all out tonight sir, right now I’m just gonna hang with your daughter.
I want to get hurt!
I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Oh, but “baby fish mouth” is sweeping the nation?
You’re right, you’re right. I know you’re right.
You’re the worst kind. You’re high maintenance but you think you’re low maintenance.
No you didn’t. A Sheldon can do your income taxes. If you need a root canal, Sheldon’s your man… but humpin’ and pumpin’ is not Sheldon’s strong suit. It’s the name. ‘Do it to me Sheldon, you’re an animal Sheldon, ride me big Shel-don.’ Doesn’t work.
All I’m saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don’t get him first, somebody else will, and you’ll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband.
Is one of us supposed to be a DOG in this scenario?
The fact that you’re not answering leads me to believe you’re either (a) not at home, (b) home but don’t want to talk to me, or (c) home, desperately want to talk to me, but trapped under something heavy. If it’s either (a) or (c), please call me back.
That’s it? Some faceless guy rips off all your clothes, and THAT’S the sex fantasy you’ve been having since you were twelve?
She’s supposed to be his transitional person, she’s not supposed to be the ONE. All this time I thought he didn’t want to get married. But, the truth is, he didn’t want to marry me.
And then one day I was taking Alice’s little girl for the afternoon because I’d promised to take her to the circus, and we were in the cab playing “I Spy” – I spy a mailbox, I spy a lamp-post – and she looked out the window and she saw this man and this woman with these two little kids. And the man had one of the little kids on his shoulders, and she said, “I spy a family.” And I started to cry
Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it.
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha… [thud]
Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.
I’m not a witch, I’m your wife. But after what you just said, I’m not even sure I want to be that any more.
Have fun stormin’ da castle!
Let me ‘splain. [pause] No, there is too much. Let me sum up.
Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togevah tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wiffin a dweam…
Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while.
Your shower shoes have fungus on them. You’ll never make it to the bigs with fungus on your shower shoes.
Skip: You guys. You lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Larry!
Larry: Lollygaggers?
Skip: Lollygaggers.Well, fuck this fucking game!
*I also love the exchange when Crash yells at Nuke for getting the words wrong, but I think I’m misquoting it, and I didn’t want to get it wrong. I poked around online a bit, but I couldn’t find it (at least, not with any assurance that it was accurate). If anyone has it at their fingertips, please share!*
As you know, I’m more than a little attached to The Princess Bride…I mean, c’mon!
When Harry Met Sally…: “Don’t fuck with Mr Zero.”
The Princess Bride: “The most famous is: Never get involved in a land war in Asia.”
Bull Durham: I’m torn between two quotes:
“I hear you couldn’t hit water if you fell out of a fucking boat.”
“Well, Nuke’s scared because his eyelids are jammed and his old man’s here. We need a live… is it a live rooster? We need a live rooster to take the curse off Jose’s glove and nobody seems to know what to get Millie or Jimmy for their wedding present. Is that about right? We’re dealing with a lot of shit.”
