Killer Lines

[Rockwolf66]

Jack Dante: "I showed him my thing and it killed him."

I found the scene the line is from and it's even creepier than last time I watched it.

Scene

[Olefin]

"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass...and I'm all out of bubblegum."

From They Live

perfect line for the opening of either a firefight or bar fight anywhere from Krakow to Los Angeles

[Bullet Magnet]

If I was running a game and someone said that. I'd HAVE TO make a roll to see if the person being spoken to had bubblegum.
Sure, in the T2K world, the odds of having gum would be slim, but the 01 (on percentile dice) DOES come up from time to time.

Lt. Col. Tyrus Cassius "TC" McQueen: The dim glow falling upon the dried blood of Union brothers in the Manassas eve still guides our path. Constellations, hidden by fierce Pacific storms in the Bataan sky remain obscured by rain. The stars - a billion for every life laid down in Vietnam - still shine on us and will guide those who follow.

Lt. Cooper Hawkes: What dead guy wrote that

Lt. Col. Tyrus Cassius "TC" McQueen: I wrote it.



Space: Above and Beyond

[95th Rifleman]

Some gems from my fave war movie, a bridge too far

Maj. General Stanislaw Sosabowski: Doesn't matter what it was. When one man says to another, "I know what let's do today, let's play the war game."... everybody dies.

Corporal Hancock: Sir.
Major General Urquhart: Hancock. I've got lunatics laughing at me from the woods. My original plan has been scuppered now that the jeeps haven't arrived. My communications are completely broken down. Do you really believe any of that can be helped by a cup of tea
Corporal Hancock: Couldn't hurt, sir.

Field Marshal Model: What can you see
General Ludwig: Nothing. But they're going to try a river assault.
Field Marshal Model: It will fail.
General Ludwig: Of course. But what do we do if it doesn't

John Frost: I'm awfully sorry, but I'm afraid we're going to have to occupy your house.

Lt. Colonel J.O.E. Vandeleur: Have you ever been liberated
Col. Robert Stout: I was divorced twice. Does that count
Lt. Colonel J.O.E. Vandeleur: Yes.

"F*ck it... Bugler, Sound the Charge..."


Don't know where I found it, but I love it.

As soon as I saw "TC" McQueen, I figured that's what you were taking about. I liked that show, even though it had a lot of glaring flaws. Too bad it didn't last. Fox is pretty good for cancelling shows that are interesting (Space, Connor Chronicles) and keeping stupid crap on (Dollhouse).

[Snake Eyes]

Keeping with the Eastwood theme:

Well, I liked Dollhouse -- but I agree TV in general is good at cancelling good shows if they don't catch on right away. Would you believe that All in the Family didn't get good ratings until halfway through it's second season Now it's an American classic, and Archie's chair is in the Smithsonian. Nowdays It probably would have been cancelled before its fourth show.

[Jason Weiser]

Another line from that classic of modern film, Aliens:

Apone: All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for Breakfast in bed Another glorious day in the Corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I LOVE the Corps!

and...

Hudson: Come on! Come on! Come and get it, baby! Come on! I don't got all day! Come on! Come on! Come on you bastard! Come on, you too! Oh, you want some of this Fuck you!

[Legbreaker]

The one, the only quote needed for any situation.

Vasquez: "Let's rock!"

Nowdays It probably would have been cancelled before its fourth show.

The way political correctness has run amok, All In the Family wouldn't have even made it past the pilot.

Wasn't that also from the old video game "Duke Nuke'em"

[Odie]

One from a guy we had to arrest.

"It wasn't me, it was the other crazy guy."

[raketenjagdpanzer]

Yeah; they lifted a lot of classic action movie lines for ol' Duke to say.
