You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off.

Whats the best line from a film?

Bobbydazzler - love your quote from Bladerunner, my favorite is Tyrell's "the light that burns twice as bright burns half as long". Check out Paul Oakenfolds Goa mix which has your quote sampled over Van Gellis's music.

This question could have so many classic answers, from "African or European?" in Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail to "I am Spartacus" (obvious) to the cafe orgasm scene in When Harry Met Sally, but surely the top one is "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius..."etc from Gladiator. For sheer drama, you can't beat it. Others that must merit a mention are "Maverick requestin' fly-by" "Your request is denied" *BOOM* from Top Gun (of course), "Hey man, you just wrecked your Ferarri" "It's not mine", "I sh_t you not" and "Gentlemen, welcome to The Rock" from The Rock which wins on quantity and the 'bloody doors off' and "Hold on lads, I've got an idea" from The Italian Job. I'm sure I'll remember a classic as soon as I log off, but that's life!

Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible. He is in the resturant of fishtanks talking to that nasty bloke he says '...You have never seen me very upset!' good line, also ' why worry. Each of us is wearing an unlicenced nuclear accelarator on our backs' Ghostbusters baby!!!!!

'Those aren't pillows!' from planes, trains and automobiles.

''You'll burn for this, Angel'' ''I know.... in Hell.'' Mickey Rourke (Harry Angel)- Angel Heart.

It could be "...I love the smell of napalm in the morning... smells like victory..." from Apocalypse Now, or maybe the "...funny? fuuny how?..." tirade by Joe Pesci in Goodfellas. Other than that, any line in True Romance!

From 'The Big Sleep', Humphrey Bogart as Philip Marlowe: 'She tried to sit on my lap - while I was standing up'. (I may not have got that word perfect)

The best lines come from the best film, QED. So, from Pee Wee's Big Adventure: "I'm trying to use the phone... There are things about me you shouldn't know... I don't make monkeys, I just train 'em... The stars at night, Are clear and bright... Ev'ehbody knows thur ain't a basemunt in thu Alamooo..." The humour, pathos and power of the words are struggling to transfer from the film to the printed page ;-)

On how to relax by D.I. Reagan Flying Squad to side kick (was his name George a.k.a Terry in the original Minder) Loosen your tie, pour youself a scotch, put your feet up and tell your bird to shut it! Not from a movie I admit but still well worth a mention!

"Hannibal" I'm giving serious thought........to eating your wife.

Clark Griswald from National Lampoons Vacation - "I think you're all f*cked in the head! We're ten hours from the f*cking fun park and you wanna bail out! Well I'll tell you something, this is no longer a vacation...it's a quest! It's a quest for fun! I'm gonna have fun and you're gonna have fun! We're all gonna have so much f*cking fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our goddamn smiles! You'll be whistling Zip-a-dee-doo-dah out of your assh*les! I've got to be crazy! I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose! Praise Marty Moose!"

Bricktop (Alan Ford) in 'Snatch' ... "Do you know what Nemesis means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by a horrible c##t. Me!"
