Browsing the channels this eve and noted that Indiana Jones - Raiders of the Lost Ark is on and made me think of one of my favourite quotes. It’s actually from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and it’s when he looks at Willie through the hole in the enclosing cave with such a look of fear / urgency / what-the-hell-are-you-doing-woman and says “we…are going…to die!”

tickles me every time!

Interstellar's got some great quotes too:

"When you become a parent, one thing becomes really clear. And that's that you want to make sure your children feel safe. And that rules out telling a 10-year old that the world's ending."

And the exchange that always leaves me desperately hoping I've got some tissues:
Murph: "Nobody believed me, but I knew you'd come back."
Cooper: "How?"
Murph: "...Because my dad promised me."

Deidre Chambers, what a coincidence

A toll is a toll and a roll is a roll, and if we don't get no tolls then we don't eat no rolls

It's got to be planes, trains and automobiles for me (Steve Martin and John Candy are brilliant in it).
Del: "6 bucks and my left nut says we’re not landing in Chicago"
Man giving free ride:
To his wife “Get yer lazy behind out here and put that trunk up in the back! She don’t mind. She’s short and skinny – but she’s strong. Her first baby: it come out sideways."
Neil: ”Are you trying to start a fight?” Del: “No I’m simply stating a fact that’s all. You fidget with your nuts a lot!” Neil: “You know what would make me happy?” Del: “Another couple balls and an extra set of fingers?”

Lots of testicle quotes for some bizarre reason but makes me laugh so much.
Loving this thread.

'Shut that door' said like the frog guy from Flushed Away.

'I hate the Tuesday' from The Terminal.

'That'll do Donkey, that'll do' Shrek

'Banana' a lá The Minions

'And rain, will make the flowers grow' from Les Miserable, a musical rather than a film, but I sing this to myself when I feel the weather getting on top of me during long winters

Hangover, when they ask the pissed off doctor for directions. “Sure, it’s at the corner of get a map, and fuck off.”

I’ve got so many but maybe this one is at the top:

”I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living, or get busy dying.”

“I’m a donkey on the edge”

Shrek, best quote ever. Regularly quote it when I’m about to loose the plot. 😂😂

My brother and I got ordained into the church of the latter day dude after we watched this 🤣we can legally perform legal things if our status is recognised wherever we are but I haven't tried to be fairGrin
The information says that there are no dudettes, only dudes; female members are also dudes.

Blues Brothers.

Jake Blues is being released from Joliet Prison and is being handed his property back by a prison officer. He lists them as he hands them back.

"Wrist watch. Broken."

Looks down perturbed and picks up a pen to pick up and hand back the next item

"One prophylactic. Used."
