   What is your favorite Line in a movie?
   
   One of my favorite movies is Aliens - Favorite line,
   
   (Bill Paxton) Pvt Hudson: With those things running around out there "you can count me out"
   
   Then after a brief discussion on who should go and hook up the remote link,
   
   Bishop volunteers and Hudson says - "Yeah, Bishop should go"
   
   If you haven't seen it, it is worth it.

   My favorite lines come from "Gone with the Wind".  I do have many favorites in the film, but I'll choose the last lines at the end of the movie when Scarlett smiles and says:
   
   "After all, tomorrow is another day"
   
   Great ending for a great film!

      unfortunately for me, although there is no denying that casablanca is a classic, that line, like so many has been so overdone, copied and used in bad taste that I find it hard to appreciate now.  But that is just my opinion, Not my intention to ruin it for you.

   First of all props to the man who started this thread that Bill Paxton line is classic along with "Whoopi-Fu@&in'-Doo!" that he says earlier in the film.
   
   My favorite line from any movie ever huh?????
   
                         Hmmm.
   
   That would have to be "I want you to go to your window and stick your head out and yell,"I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this anymore!"  from the prophetic film Network.
   
   The character of Howard Beale as played by Peter Finch is the most important film role of all time because he foretold about how our network news channels were pulling further and further away from any real truth in favor of reality-TV in it was made in 1976!
   
   According to Netflix >> Paddy Chayefsky predicted today's rash of trash television and shock-laden news broadcasts. The writer of Marty created network news anchor Howard Beale (Peter Finch), who loses his mind on the air. Unfortunately, his outrageous rants boost the ratings and intrigue cutthroat network executives Faye Dunaway and Robert Duvall. William Holden contrasts their avarice as an old-school TV journalist hopelessly out of step.
   
   What's even more apropos is that Peter Finch won is Best Actor Oscar posthumously because people who speak the truth in the media end up with fates just like that.

   Prince George III: "Tell me about these oppressed masses, what are they so worked up about?"
   
   Blackadder:" They are worked up sir, because they are so poor, they are forced to have children; simply as to provide a cheap alternative to turkey at christmas.  Disease and deprivation stalk our land, like two giant.....stalking things. and the working man is poised to overthrow us!"

    "Frankly My Dear, I Do Not Give a Damn."  As Rhett walks out the Scarlet in the closing scene of Gone With the Wind.  It is so funny because in the book they mention she is 28 and it appears as if half her life is over, which shows the differences in life expectancy then and now.  I think this line was very brave to use in the movie as it was censored five thousand dollars to remain true to the line from the book.  It is great to see when movies try to remain close to the books on which they are based.  By the way, I think Scarlet was so selfish and I never really understood her, but is still one of my favorite movies and books.

    Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.  The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.  Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

          OH MY GOD!!!!!! really? Oh George, not the livestock...
          or "he got all loved up and turned into a ..horny toad.." "Damn, Im in a tight spot."
          I thought it was just me..where I live, cows are abundant, and I frequently say..Oh George, not the livestock....and my kids hate it. I want to buy the soundtrack..soggy bottom boys..but I want the Siren Song, whatever its called...most of all.

             'Damn, I'm in a tight spot!' lol, great film.
             
             Tried to e-mail you the Siren song earlier but my computer crashed and has taken me about 2 hours to try and get back online, grrrrrrrr, lol, will try again later.
             
             Think it's called 'Didn't leave nobody but the baby' if that's the one you mean.

    The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
    
    And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
