Best Speeches

[Haunted]

^^Can I get an "amen", or rather, "blessed be?" That's mine, right there, Vod, even though it's not so much of a speech... Bill Murray's last line is the best and may count as a "speech-lette."

Who can't love:

"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gass, half a pack of cigarettes. It's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."

"Hit it."

All war-movies have those "winner" lines. And it´s always before the big battle.

But non of them beats R. Lee Ermey´s lines in "Full metal jacket".

"Are you quitting on me? Well, are you? Then quit, you slimy fucking walrus-looking piece of shit. Get the fuck off of my obstacle. Get the fuck down off of my obstacle. Now. Move it. I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world. I will motivate you, Private Pyle, if it short-dicks every cannibal on the Congo."

" Today... is Christmas! There will be a magic show at zero-nine-thirty! Chaplain Charlie will tell you about how the free world will conquer Communism with the aid of God and a few marines! God has a hard-on for marines because we kill everything we see! He plays His games, we play ours! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls! God was here before the Marine Corps! So you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the Corps! Do you ladies understand?"

" If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human, fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit. Because I am hard you will not like me. But the more you hate me the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Corps. Do you maggots understand that?"

" Who said that? Who the fuck said that? Who's the slimy little communist shit, twinkle-toed cocksucker down here who just signed his own death warrant? Nobody, huh? The fairy fucking godmother said it. Out-fucking-standing. I will PT you all until you fucking die. I'll PT you until your assholes are sucking buttermilk."

" The deadliest weapon in the world is a marine and his rifle. It is your killer instinct which must be harnessed if you expect to survive in combat. Your rifle is only a tool. It is a hard heart that kills. If your killer instincts are not clean and strong you will hesitate at the moment of truth. You will not kill. You will become dead marines and then you will be in a world of shit because marines are not allowed to die without permission. Do you maggots understand?"

" Tonight, you men will sleep with your rifles. You will give your rifle a girl's name because this is the only pussy you people are going to get. Your days of finger-banging ol' Mary J. Rottencrotch through her pertty pink panties are over! You're married to this piece. This weapon of iron and wood. And you will be faithful."

Just about all his lines are gold in that movie, and he wasn´t even nominated for an Oscar for that role. What´s wrong with the world?...

Each and every one of those are priceless, I love that movie.

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. I don't like it any more than you men. -----Cool Hand Luke


What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you. --The GodFather

What you lookin' at? You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way! --Scarface

You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny? ---Goodfellas


Everything. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life. --Thr Goonies


:D

That speech in "The Goonies" was probably the best thing in that movie!

[Haunted]

Oh come on, it was a great speech. A classic, but as a kid, I thought that movie ruled.

[crabapple]

I thought it was funny that the kid felt the need to RELIVE the story, and recreate the sounds he made. Like once he started telling the story, he was on automatic drive and had to tell the WHOLE story. Live through the whole thing all over again. Even though in retrospect he felt bad about it.

That whole "Huuaaaaaa....huuuuaaaaa..." thing, that was good.

:D

the best part was Robert Davi's expression "i'm starting to like this kid"

[_____V_____]

There's another scene in which Chuck is escaping from that house, and he comes across a car and all out of breath, stammers "Excuse me sir but me and my friends were in the house with the Fratelli's..."etc. when the light inside the car is turned on and Davi is sitting inside...then Davi breaking into the song...

Gotta love the translations of spanish that Mouth does to Rosalita for Mikey's Mom...

"Mikey's Mom - Pants and shirts go in the... oh, forget about it. Just throw everything into cardboard boxes. Mouth, can you really translate all that?
Mouth - For sure, Mrs. Walsh.
Mouth - The marajuana goes in the top drawer. The cocaine and speed go in the second drawer. And the heroin goes in the bottom drawer. Always separate the drugs."


"Mikey's Mom to Rosalita - This is my supply closet. You'll find everything you need - brooms, dust pans, insect spray... I would really like the house clean when they tear it down. Mouth, can you translate?
Mouth: If you do a bad job you'll be locked in here with the cockroaches for two weeks without food or water.
Rosalita: My god I am in a crazy house!"


excellent movie...brings back a lot of fond memories...when I used to watch it again and again on my old VHS...ahhhh...
