Top 100 Movie Quotes

I think they missed a lot of great quotes...bond got two yet star wars gets one...where is usual suspects? where is lebowski? where is clerks? where is a anderson movie quote? where is Three Kings?

seems like they took the top 50 movies and just quoted them here and there...

whats your favorite?

They're the most memorable quotes, not the funniest.

Re: AFI: Top 100 Movie Quotes = TERRIBLE!!!!
 

I think there are many more memorable nonfunny quotes out there....it happens that i just put those up there.

let me change it up:
Last Starfighter?
Pulp Fiction?
Juice?
Belly?
Crash?
Spongebob Square Pants?
South Park The Movie?
iron eagle?
Goonies?
Full Metal Jacket?
ferris beuller?
braveheart?
big?
25th hour?

AFI has never had a top 100 anything that was worth a crap

Re: AFI: Top 100 Movie Quotes = TERRIBLE!!!!
 

How about some quotes that you think are superior instead of listing a bunch of movies? Some of those are good movies, but that doesn't mean they have memorable quotes.

Spongebob Square Pants?
South Park The Movie?

Are you serious? Are you 12 years old?

I agree with Braveheart i.e. "They will never take our Freedom!" and some Pulp Fiction quotes, but most of those have swearing in it.

You have to remember the audience: Network TV, not cable.

You're funny.

Read the reasoning at the bottom. All the quotes make sense.

Belly?

Haha, I'm surprised there were others here that have actually seen this. I can think of a few very funny quotes from this, but nothing worthy of a most memorable of all-time list [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: AFI: Top 100 Movie Quotes = TERRIBLE!!!!
 

It's nice that out of all the Caddyshack quotes available they chose that one.....this AFI top 100 thing must be rigged, [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img].

The other interesting thing is that most of the movies used to quote are very UNquotable movies....and/or have just one usable quote. Not that the list was supposed to capture this....I was just hoping/expecting some movies where I'd be torn between all the great quotes that could have bene used (a la Caddyshack...where they quoted perhaps the 15th best quote of the movie).

Left out my favorite...
 

Game over, man. Game over.

Scent of a Woman
 

They totally missed Scent of a Woman. "HOOOOWWWWAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
