Movie Quotes

[Frostmarrow]

OK, it was perhaps a tad too esoteric. This quote was from Friar Tuck, in Patrick Bergin's version of "Robin Hood". Sadly, it was produced at about the same time as Costner's (FAR inferior) version, and was relegated to being aired on television. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Excellent performances all the way around. As good as Costner's was bad (and from me there's virtually no higher form of praise).

Darn. I just knew it was Robin Hood. I just couldn't place it... I just could think of Prince of thieves and Men in tights. Uh-hu. Good flick, though.

What's this then:

What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. And I don't like it any more than you men.

 

[Starman]

Would continue with the rest of the quote but, wouldn't want to give it all away

Here's another:

My job requires mostly masking my contempt for the s in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that less closely resembles Hell.

Kevin Spacey's character in American Beauty [Lester something or other...]

Here's a classic...

"I'm in command of 18 competitively selected super-fit physical specimens with an average age of 24.6 who have been locked up in hyperspace for 378 days. It would have served you right if he... they... oh go on, get out of here before I have you run out of the area under guard---and then I'll put more guards on the guards.

Where's the glory in dragging a man from his bed and gunning him down in front of his wife and children? Where's the glory in that?

It was Bono from U2: Rattle and Hum. Here's my new one:
