Movie Quotes Fun!

I found out the way your mind works and the kind of man you are. I know your plans and expectations - you've burbled every bit of strategy you've got. I know exactly what you will do, and exactly what you won't, and I've told you exactly nothing. To these aged eyes, boy, that's what winning looks like! - Henry II (A Lion in Winter)

From "Boondock Saints":

[a Russian gangster comes into the bar]
Murphy: So you're Chekov, huh? Well, this here's McCoy. Find a Spock, we got us an away team.

***​

Connor: [picking out weapons and gear] Do ya know what we need, man? Some rope.
Murphy: Absolutely. What are you, insane?
Connor: No I ain't. Charlie Bronson's always got rope.
Murphy: What?
Connor: Yeah. He's got a lot of rope strapped around him in the movies, and they always end up using it.
Murphy: You've lost it, haven't ya?
Connor: No, I'm serious.
Murphy: That's stupid. Name one thing you'd need a rope for.
Connor: You don't f*ck*n' know what you're gonna need it for. They just always need it.
Murphy: What's this 'they' sh*t? This isn't a movie.
Connor: Oh, right.
[picks up large knife out of Murphy's bag]
Connor: Is that right, Rambo?
Murphy: All right. Get your stupid f*ck*n' rope.
Connor: I'll get my stupid rope. I'll get it. There's a rope right there.

***​

Murphy: [the two brothers are in an air shaft and getting a bit uncomfortable] Where the f*ck are you going?
Connor: Shhh. I'm trying to figure some sh*t out, so keep your trap shut.
Murphy: Ahh, f*ck you. I'm sweatin' my ass off carrying your f*ck*n' rope around. Must weigh 30lbs.
Connor: Shhh. This is some serious sh*t, so get a-f*ck*ng-hold of yourself!
Murphy: [shouts] Oh, f*ck you! I'm not the rope-totin', Charlie Bronson-wannabe getting us f*ck*ng lost!
Connor: Would you shut it?
[taps him on the head with his flash light, and both brothers start fighting in the air vent until it gives way]
Connor: Jesus f*ck*ng Christ!
[as the vent is about to give way]

***​

[after dropping through the ceiling on a rope and killing nine mobsters]
Connor: Well, "Name one thing you're gonna need this stupid f*ck*ng rope for."
Murphy: That was way easier than I thought it would be.
Connor: Aye.
Murphy: On TV you always have that guy that jumps over the sofa...
Connor: And then you've got to shoot at him for ten f*ck*ng minutes.
Murphy: We're good.
Connor: Yes, we are.
 



Agent Smecker from Boondock Saints had a ton of hilarious quotes from the movie as well. Here are just a few:

Agent Smecker: Brilliant! So now we've got a 'huge guy' theory and a 'serial crusher' theory. Top notch. What's your name?
Detective Greenly: Detective Greenly. Who the f*ck are you?
[Agent Smecker opens his jacket to show his FBI credentials]
Agent Smecker: That's who the f*ck I am.

[after finding the McManus brothers' apartment]
Agent Smecker: We'll start the ass-kissing with you.
[cocks his thumb right at Greenly]

[after being asked if the McManus brothers can stay at the station]
Agent Smecker: Well, we'll have to check with your mom...but it's okay with me if your friends sleep over.

Agent Smecker: You Irish cops are perking up. That's two sound theories in one day, neither of which deal with abnormally sized men. Kinda makes me feel like Riverdancing.
 

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid."
Han Solo, Star Wars: A New Hope.

"And so it was that the Fourth Age began, and the Fellowship of the Ring, though eternally bound by love and friendship, had ended." Frodo Baggins, The Return of the King.

"Well, I'm back." Sam Gamgee, Return of the King.

Just to digress, I'd like to quote the Appendices, which I think was the basis for Frodo's line. Did anyone else who read this in the RotK Appendices experience some sort of profound sadness, like a close friend had left and wasn't coming back?

"1541 - In this year on March 1st came at last the passing of King Elessar. It is said that the beds of Meriadoc and Peregrin were set beside the bed of the great king. Then Legolas built a grey ship in Ithilien, and sailed down the Anduin and so over Sea; and with him, it is said, went Gimli the Dwarf. And when that ship passed an end was come in Middle-Earth of the Fellowship of the Ring."

And they will love him for it."

Oh, you should see the Colosseum, Spaniard.

Willing you to make the killer blow.
The silence before you strike...
And the noise afterwards,
It rise up like a storm
As if you were the thunder god himself."

And have bloody adventures!
And the Great [bleep] will suckle on us
Until we are fat and happy and can suckle no more
And then, when enough men have died,
Perhaps, you will have your freedom."

-- Proximo

"I'll tell you a secret - something they don't teach you in the temple.
The Gods envy us.
They envy us because we're mortal. Because any moment might be our last. Everything's more beautiful because we're doomed.
You will never be lovelier than you are now.
We will never be here again."

Achilles, speaking to Perseus, Troy.
