To Quote a Movie...

[kriadydragon]

What movie quotes do you find yourself using a lot, whether in your head or out loud?

Mine are:

There is no *insert thing here*, there is only Zuel (Ghost Busters)

That word, I do not think it means what you think it means (The Princess Bride)

Potato, tomato, potato, tomato (Megamind. This one is always getting stuck in my head, I don't know why.)

Come, Patsy! (Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I like to use this one on the pets)

"I am Arthur, King of the Britains."
"King of the who?"
"The Britains"
"Who're the Britains?"
"We all are, we are all Britains, and I am your king."
"Well I didn't vote for you."
"You don't vote for kings!" (Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I can't watch any movie about King Arthur without that popping into my head).

ETA: I totally forgot this one! "Doctor" "Doctor" "Doctor" "Doctor" "Doctor" - Spys Like Us

It seems to depend for me on who I'm talking to. My husband and I quote Star Wars a lot, especially "You're not my father!" and "Use the Force, Luke!" There are also quite a few video game references, like "The cake is a lie!" from Portal, and random sci-fi/gamer nerd humor. ("All your base are belong to us" ... does anyone even recognize that one anymore? *g*)

Only they're usually not direct quotes -- it's usually the quote with the main noun dropped out and replaced with whatever is appropriate to the situation. ("The pie is a lie!" ... or whatever.)

And also, "Nooooooo!" from ... just about everything ever. *g*

My sister and I have a lot of quotes from our childhood ... Looney Tunes is a big one, and also random movie and TV references from the 80s and early 90s. (I'm having trouble coming up with good examples off the top of my head, but I know there are a lot of them!) And song lyrics too ...

"The cake is a lie!" from Portal,

I've been wondering where that came from. It's been driving me nuts.

All my favorite video game quotes come from either American McGee's Alice or Clive Barker's Undying. My ultimate favorites that I actually use are "I'm not stupid, don't make me think you are" and "you look more a meal than a man." Man I miss my games, but our computer had an overhaul and it no longer has a game card *tries not to cry.*

Then there's "Oh, no, not the broccoli! Oh no not the cauliflower!" which my family would say all the time but they can never tell me precisely where it came from (my mom says it's from one of the Police Academy movies but I could have sworn they said it was from a movie called Bruce Lee Jr. or something).
