OT: What's the strangest line said that you heard in a box office movie?

[SVCBeercats]

Maybe not strange, but to me memorable. (not a quote - )

Movie 1 - "You know, you can’t just sit around and wait for life to come to you. You have to go out and get it."
Movie 2 - "There will be no free rides, no excuses." and "You have to believe in yourself."

 

[BRS24]

"Oh bruddah, somebody gonna kiss the donkey"

 

[Cuango]

“She tried to sit on my lap while I was still standing up.”

 

[Cuango]

“Was you ever bit by a dead bee?”

 

[Pharos]

"He's affable."

 

[Millenial23]

Okay, that might just be from the most quotable movie of all time!


"I'm not a witch I'm your wife."

"Have fun storming the castle."

princess bride?

 

[CaliHuskyFan]

Who's the U-Boat Commander?

J: Some of the girls are wearing my mother's clothing.
L: What's wrong with that?
J: I just don't want to spend the rest of my life in analysis

Let's go make love on a real train!

Sometimes, Joel, you just gotta say "What the duck*"!

“I feel pert as a ruttin buck!”

“Dying ain’t much of a living, Boy.”

Not the stars line but some very funny lines in response to the star.

“I noticed when you get to disliking someone they aren’t around long either”

And same non-star. “I could of missed”

Also, “I guess a more experienced shopper could have got more for your seven cents”

"You learn a lot watching things eat."
Departed

"big difference between mostly dead and all dead, mostly dead is slightly alive."
Princess Bride

"big difference between mostly dead and all dead, mostly dead is slightly alive."
From same movie: “That’s not a knife. That’s a knife.”
Crocodile Dundee

“What should we do with the boy, bathe him”
Great Expectations

“Remember you wanted this.”
Reacher (first movie)

"These little bastards were so strong I discovered a whole new phase ....the cerebral palsy phase."

[SVCBeercats]

“She tried to sit on my lap while I was still standing up.”

“I treated you like a princess, and you stole from me?!”

 

[SVCBeercats]

"You learn a lot watching things eat."

“One of us had to die. With me, it tends to be the other guy.”​

 

[Blond D.]

Is that a 10 gallon hat or are you just enjoying the show?

 

[Aluminny69]

well the first is from "when harry met sally" and the second is from "Dr. stranglove" the other 2 I don't have a clue.

Hint: “You relax. You’re the dead guy.” Oda Mae Brown, aka Whoopi Goldberg

“Do you think he wants a piece of cheese?”

This is from the movie Arthur, 1981. near the end of the movie, Arthur’s potential father-in-law is angry because Arthur is drunk at the church. He grabs the cheese knife with the intent of killing Arthur. Arthur says “do you think he wants a piece of cheese?”. The Liza Minnelli character replies “I think we’re going to die”. Although the ‘cheese’ line was very funny, it was pretty unexpected given the circumstances.

That was a nice one. I didn't figure it out until you explained it, but then I remembered the scene and laughed.

Yes a very good one. Better than Arthur saying, "Do you want another fish", or something like that at the Plaza restaurant.

How about this:
I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

I thought the question was, “what is the strangest line you heard in a bar?”

Mine, “Buzz off soldier” and “Fat chance”.

 

[64Zcode]

"When's the last time you picked your feet, Willy? You ever been to Poughkeepsie? You picked your feet in Poughkeepsie, didn't ya?
I know a guy in Poughkeepsie wants to talk to you."

LANGUAGE WARNING - But not too bad
I guess I should have watched the clip before trying to type the quotes by memory. I didn't get them verbatim but came pretty close.

[Forego]

"You put a fox in the hen house and he'll have chicken for dinner every night"

The Quick and the Dead. Also Gene Hackman line.
