You call that a knife? THIS is a knife. - Crocodile Dundee
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!! - Monty Python Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun. - Army Of Darkness Heavy Metal: Den: "And if I refuse?" Ard: "You die, the girl dies, EVERYBODY dies." Den: (narration) Sounded reasonable to me. Relax, Charlie; I've got an ANgle. Oh give me a BREAK!!! Sternn is nothin' but a low-down, lyin', cheatin', double-dealin', back-stabbin', larcenous perverted WORM!! Shootin's too good for 'im! Hangin's too good for 'im! He should be torn into little bitty pieces and BURIED ALIVE!! Robot: "What about me? Now I've got to put this asshole back together!" The two pilots: "NOSE-DIVE!!!" Warehouse 13: Don't open that!! It's the original can of worms! Chicken Run: It's all in yer 'ead, Mr. Tweedy. All in yer 'ead! Them chickens are up to summat. They're organized, I tell ya. Mrs. Tweedy! The chickens are revolting! From "The Warrior's Apprentice", Lois Bujold: ...but then, an obviously nervous person with a lethal weapon has a brand of menace all their own... "Creatures Of Light And Darkness", Roger Zelazny: Postulating infinity, all else follows as a matter of course. "Dilvish, The Damned": I'm afraid it has become a matter of future self-defense. Babylon 5: Zathras used to being beast of burden for other people's needs. Very sad life. Probably have very sad death. But, at least there is symmetry. Zathras understand. --- No. Zathras not understand. But, Zathras DO. Zathras good at doings. Not so good at understandings. Can not run out of time. Time is infinite. You are finite. Zathras is finite. This...is wrong tool. No, no, no. Very bad. Never use this. Marcus: "My instructors at the Ranger Academy said I had a lot of repressed anger." [He and Lennier look around at an entire bar full of lowlifes he has just beaten senseless] Lennier: "And?" Marcus: "It's not repressed any more." John Sheridan: "You can't kill the truth!" (pause) "Well, you can, but it always comes back to haunt you." Dukhat: "When someone does a foolish thing, you should say it is a foolish thing. They may still continue to do it, but at least the truth is where it needs to be." Delenn: "There are beings in the universe billions of years older than either of our races. Once, long ago, they walked among the stars like giants, vast and timeless. They taught the younger races, explored beyond the Rim, created great empires. But to all things, there is an end. Slowly, over a million years, the First Ones went away. Some passed beyond the stars, never to return. Some simply disappeared." Delenn: "The Ancients understood, that in war, it is always the young and the powerless who are sent off to fight, sent by leaders and warriors and generals who are not themselves engaged in the battle, who do not bleed on the front lines, who do not die alone in the cold and friendless night." Delenn: "They look to us to guide their hands. But prayers are fleeting, and wars forgotten. What is built, endures." The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen: "Pack for an English summer." (Next scene: London, downpour) Casablanca: Major Strasser has been shot! Round up the usual suspects! I am shocked - shocked! - to find that gambling is going on in this establishment! Victor/Victoria: This? The last time I saw a specimen like this, they had to shoot the horse. Doctor Strangelove: Gentlemen! You can't fight in here - this is the War Room! English history: "Mr. Churchill, you're drunk!" "Madam, you are ugly. Tomorrow, I will be sober." "Mr. Churchill, if you were my husband I'd poison your tea." "Madam, if I were your husband I would drink it!" |

Both incredible and incredibly funny! Many are alien to me, but stand on their own! Thanks for this post, and thanks for not forgetting to place them...now I can experience them as well, firsthand I shall. O I shall! Kudos! Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense |

Just want to add to this one... One pilot to the other: "Oh wow, man! Good landing!" And from another movie: "Multipass!" Leeloo - The Fifth Element "A bomb is a poor choice of weaponry for close combat." JC Denton - Deus Ex (PC game) "Sure" JC Denton - Deus Ex (trust me, in context it's hilarious) "I'm not much of a reader." JC Denton - Deus Ex "I never asked for this." Adam Jensen - Deus Ex: Human Revolution (prequel to Deus Ex) "Go for the eyes, Boo! Go for the eyes!" Minsc - Baldur's Gate (PC game) =================

Oh, I forgot a couple!
Harry Potter: (And The Deathly Hallows, part 2) When have any of our plans ever actually worked out? We make plans, we show up, and all Hell breaks loose! Day Of The Triffids: Everyone starts by knowing nothing about anything, but God gives him -- and even her -- brains to find out with. Failure to use them is not a virtue to be praised; even in women it is a gap to be deplored. ---------------------- It's easy to quit smoking. I've done it lots of times! |

I only came across it a week ago, and ended up losing most of the night reading the archives. I blame TV Tropes. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/M ... inYourLife "When you talk about damage radius, even atomic weapons pale before that of an unfettered idiot in a position of power."

Yeah... I did that with Something*Positive ( http://www.somethingpositive.net/ ) about 10 years ago, which meant that I had roughly three years of archives to get through. Managed to do it in two days. Learned my lesson with that, and got caught up with Ma3 over a week or so. Been reading it for about 5 years now, so I only needed to catch up on one year's worth. =================
