Yay! Another POB fan! I think I laughed for three days the first time I read that. And its one of my favourite books in the series too.

To The Fifth Element fans - I think its a great movie too, often underated.

Trying to think of a favourite quote not mentioned....hmmm, they're probably all too esoteric. Will have to think on it a bit more.

Been meaning to read POB novels, really enjoyed Master and Commander, read somewhere there might be another film in the works ?

This is really hard so many great films with memorable lines......Clint Eastwood comes to mind straight away .......

Kurt Russell as Jack Burton in:-
"Big Trouble in Little China"

When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the bar room wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

Thanks for reminding me of this one!

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!

It is a classic isn't it...and thanks for correcting my other paraphrase...

From "Shaun of the dead"

"You've got red on you" - Don't know why, but it cracks me up every time.

[supernova1965 (Warren)]

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

Another classic from Aliens:

Vasquez: "No. Have you?"

When Danny Glover enquires about going to South Africa at the South African consolate
