HA HA!, yes that was one of the other ones I was going to list.

and another section;

Mr. Kim: You got a message.
Korben Dallas: Yeah
Mr. Kim: You're not gonna open it? It might be important.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, like the last two I got were important. The first one was from my wife, telling me she was leaving. The second was from my lawyer, telling me he was leaving... with my wife.

Awesome movie, might have to watch it again tonight.

Cheers

Chris

Ah, Milla. She's married, now.

My one and only celebrity crush.

I'll watch it, too, Chris.

If you get the chance, listen to her music. Her album, The Divine Comedy, from 1995 -- it's a goodun', for anyone who likes folksy acoustic stuff. Her voice is beautiful. A couple of years later she hit the big time with The Fifth Element.

I still recall Colin Cushing's fledgling site and how it has grown to be her official site today.

Regards,
Humayun

Ahh yeah H, Milla is one of the best (2) bits

Apparently she got married to Luc Besson (the director) for a while and they used to converse in the made up language she uses in the film all the time. Very strange....

Got to get back to thinking of those "thermal bandages" mmmmmmm.

Cheers

Chris

Life of Brian

REG: All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

BEN: Right. Right. Terrific race, the Romans. Terrific.

PILATE: I have a vewy gweat fwiend in Wome called 'Biggus Dickus'.

PILATE: He has a wife, you know. You know what she's called? She's called... 'Incontinentia'. 'Incontinentia Buttocks'.

We should do a thread to identify the movie.

Not Sure if it made the show, but one of my all time favourite lines, and the epitome of ironic understatement is:

"We're gonna need a BIGGER boat..."
Beat me to it - my favourite too! Sums up astronomy doesn't it....

I was very disappointed that my all time favourite novel quote did not appear in the Master and Commander movie which was made from a compilation of some Patrick O'Brien books.

" Jack, you have debauched my sloth!"

- Possibly the only time in the history of print that this line has been seen in English literature.

You can't handle the truth! - Jack Nicholson, A Few Good Men

In fact the entire court room scene is brilliant!

I love Jaws - the line is a classic and delivered so well!

Aliens - stomp, stomp, stomp 'get away from her you *****'.
We almost named our son Ripley after Sigourney's character.

'We're in the pipe, 5 by 5' Ferro the dropship pilot.

Great movies - Alien and Aliens!

The old man in the YMCA..."What about my cheese whiz boy"...

Aretha's "2 Honkies dressed like Diamond merchants one ordered 4 fried chickens and the other ordered 2 pieces of dry white toast" (or similar)


I could go on and on....I love that show...
Ah Scott. A fellow true believer.
How about
Jake: Well, thank you pal, the day I get out of prison, my own brother picks me up in a police car.

Elwood: I took the liberty of bull****ting you, okay?
Jake: You lied to me.
Elwood: It wasn't lies, it was just bull****.

Backup Officer (John Landis): They broke my watch!

Trooper Daniel: Boys, you're in big trouble.

Stein? You're gonna look pretty funny trying to eat corn on the cob with no f...ing teeth.

Elwood: We'll uh.. we'll talk to Bob.

Curtis: Boys, you gotta learn not to talk to nuns that way.

Mr Fabulous: It's a f...ing barn. We'll never fill it.

Elwood: Er.. what kind of music do you usually have here?
Claire: Oh, we got both kinds. We got Country, and Western.

and of course

Elwood: They're not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God.

I could go on and on (some would say I already have!) but the beuty of the Blues Brothers is that you can use almost all these lines in everyday conversation. In fact, my two brothers and I quite regularly will have entire conversations consisting of nothing but BB quotes. Oh and Scott, the correct quote is
Aretha: We got two honkies out there dressed like Hasidic Diamond merchants.
Matt: Say what?
Aretha: They look like they're from the CIA or something.
Matt: What they want to eat?
Aretha: The tall one wants white bread, toast, dry with nothing on it.
Matt: Elwood!
Aretha: And the other one wants four whole fried chickens and a Coke.
Matt: And Jake! ****, the Blues Brothers!
