    "Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure." "220, 221, what ever it takes," in Mr. Mom is a classic. I use this line or a variation a LOT. Another favorite is when Damon Wayans says, "I think that would be best." in Beverly Hills Cop. It's mostly a delivery thing there.

    "They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

                      No matter where you go, there you are.

                      I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

                                          "I'm going to fight for peace, justice and The American Way". Superman - the movie. I was present at the first showing of Superman in Trondheim, Norway. This line was met with a unison roar of laughter from an audience of 1200, followed by a stomp clap that drowned the next few spoken lines.
