      Mood: "I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum" Didn't make the list, though

      Nothing from The Matrix, not even - "Come on. Stop trying to hit me and hit me!".

      The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick

          My favorites are "You talkin' to me?" "I'm walking here! I'm walking here!" (Midnight cowboy is my favorite movie & also Hoffman fan(below quote too)). "Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me... Aren't you?" :rolleyes: "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!" (rarely applicable to our lounge) "I'm king of the world!"

              How and when was "Houston, we have a problem" relegated to being a movie quote?

                Apollo 13. Kevin Bacon misquoted what was actually said. The real Swigart said, "Houston, We've had a problem", whereas Bacon said, "Houston, we have a problem". Therefore the second one is a real movie quote as it was never said by the original astronaut.

                  Well, to be pedantic (and thereby risk being attacked by idiots in Pompey) he actually said "Houston, we've had a problem here", but it's that meiosis that's famous, no matter how it's misquoted. Actors in movies don't make history (or do anything else useful, for that matter); real people do.

                          Mm. Good film. I quite liked:

                          Father Janovich: Why didn't you call the police?
                          Walt Kowalski: Well you know, I prayed for them to come but nobody answered.

                          Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Digital man: "You are, in short, an idiot with the IQ of an ant and the intellectual capacity of a hose pipe."

                            My fave Clint Eastwood quote... "I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. See, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now, if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it." Followed by 6 gunshots.

                              I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

                              No, No, No, No, let me ask you a question. When you came pulling in here, did you notice a sign out in front of my house that said "Dead N***er Storage"?

                              Jules: I want you to go in that bag, and find my wallet.
                              Pumpkin: Which one is it?
                              Jules: It's the one that says Bad Motherf*cker

                                        No Pulp Fiction?

                                        I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

                                        No, No, No, No, let me ask you a question. When you came pulling in here, did you notice a sign out in front of my house that said "Dead N***er Storage"?

                                        Jules: I want you to go in that bag, and find my wallet.
                                        Pumpkin: Which one is it?
                                        Jules: It's the one that says Bad Motherf*cker

                                        Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Digital man: "You are, in short, an idiot with the IQ of an ant and the intellectual capacity of a hose pipe."

                                        Very very strange - I was just thinking about why they missed this movie when I saw your post. My favourite from this movie are the last lines - Vincent: I think we should be leaving now. Jules: Yeah, that’s probably a good idea.

                                        The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick

                                          My favorite; "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine." Casablanca had a lot of entries, was a memorable movie.
