Favourite Film Line...
Just reading Fabulous magazine ( freebie from Sun on Sunday which OH buys for the sport ) and they are quoting some favourite film lines/moments... which got me thinking......
One of my favourite one liners is from Vertical Limit when Peter (Chris O'Donnell) is trying to get a party of climbers together to rescue his sister, a particularly hazardous climb in bad weather, stunned silence hits the camp and the one of them pipes up "one million sperm and you were the fastest"... Still makes me laugh.
The Champ though still reduces me to a quivering mess.....
What are yours....?

Re: Favourite Film Line...
There have been many over the years can't quite recall them all but two come to mind though.
From the film Jerry Maguire, Tom Cruise goes to Renee Zellweger house and makes a heartfelt speech wanting Renée to have him , at the end of it, Renée replies "you had me at hello" just a melting of the heart line.
Then a line from Robert Redford in Indecent Proposal towards the end of the film where he takes Demi Moore home and drops her off, Redfords chaufaur say to him " what was all that about?" Redford says "I wanted to end it" "she never would have looked at me the way she did at him". I don't know why but that last line just gets to me.

Blain: I ain't got time to bleed.
Poncho: [Poncho throws some grenades to the top of the cliff] You got time to duck?

I think I prefer Newmans quote from Butch & Sundance "If he'd just pay me what he's spending to make me stop robbing him, I'd stop robbing him."Quizzical Bob wrote:'What we have here is a failure to communicate'.

Sally's massive organism at the table wouldn't have been a horse by any chance??

I did consider mouse as a possibility - but you could hardly describe that as 'massive'!

Re: Favourite Film Line...
Another of my favourites is Julia Roberts/Richard Gere in Pretty Woman, I just loved it when they were at the opera
Lady at the Opera. Did you like the opera dear.
Vivian. It was so good I almost pee'd my pants.
Edward. She said she liked it better than Pirates of Penzance.

A Fistful of Dollars - Clint to the Baxters - I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. Gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

One of the best that I remember was in The Dam Busters when Barns Wallis was at some government department talking to a jobs-worth and asking for a Wellington bomber for tests and when told that he could not have one replied "Would it make any difference if I told you that I designed it?"
