Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

I am going to make him an offer he cant refuse

Ah yes!  The AFI (American Film Institute) listed the top 100 quotes from movies since the talkies started.  I find it hard to argue with number 1, and number 2 is a strong one as well.

Some of the others are not so easy.  And some people are clamoring that there was too many left off the list.

I am curious as to what your top 10 lines of all time would be.  Do you agree with the AFI list, or have your own?

Inquiring minds want to know!

How about this one....maybe not classic, but still a good quote:

Trautman: "Don't hate your country, John."
Rambo: "Hate? I'd die for it!"---"Rambo--First Blood part 2"

Or:

"But how---in the name of ZEUS'S BUTTHOLE---did you get out of your CELL?!"---"The Rock"

Or this one, also from "The Rock":

"Your best? Losers 'do their best'--winners go home and fuck the prom queen."
"Carla was the prom queen."


I "loved" those lines from the Rock! But then Connery is one of my favorite actors.

One I have been attatched to lately is "The Dude abides." from The Big Lebowski. Kind of a zen thing, gets me through the day.


Excellent choice. I don't see, though, how "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father. Prepare to die!" didn't make it to the list (or any of a number of PB quotes; possibly "You've fallen victim to one of the classic blunders. The first rule is, never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slightly less well known is never go up against a Sicilian when DEATH is on the line!")

I think we all agree that we dont agree with their 100.  But that is why some of my top 10 did not make their 100 either.

Thanks for your contributions.
