Never used #5 or #10.
It wasn't on the list, but I used to say, "That is why you fail" (from The Empire Strikes Back) a lot.

“...The conversations had a nightmare flatness, talking dice spilled in the tube metal chairs, human aggregates disintegrating in cosmic inanity, random events in a dying universe where everything is exactly what it appears to be and no other relation than juxtaposition is possible.”
“There are two kinds of sufferers in this world: those who suffer from a lack of life, and those who suffer from an overabundance.”
"Meantime we shall express our darker purpose."

I use, "Spalding, hand me the Billy Barou" quite a bit.

I've used a few from Princess Bride quite often:
"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
"My name is Inigo Montoya. You keelled my father. Prepare to die!"
“I'll explain, and I'll be sure to use small words so that you'll be sure to understand. You wart-hog-faced-buffoon!”

I'm rather fond of these quotes:
"Come and see the violence inherent in the system"
"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberry"
"I fart in your general direction"
and from another film:
"We've been seeing alot of each other lately and I think it would be in my better interests to go out with someone better looking, more popular, drives a nicer car, you understand don't you?"

Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

Edge left out one quote from TPB that I've used fairly often, "Have fun storming the castle!"
I love the lines from Young Guns when they're on peyote, "Did you see the size of that chicken!?" and, "Because we're in the spirit world, asshole. They can't see us."
If they make a Covenant movie I think "Don't touch me!" with outdo "I'll be back."

"He put his testicles all over me."
"Testicles?"
"You know, like an octopus."
"Tentacles....Big difference."
"Gee Ricky, sorry your mom blew up."
"I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years. I'm no dummy. I know high school girls."

Time Bandits is another very quotable movie.Cagliostro wrote:I still like to whip out the occasional, "Dear (whoever I'm talking to), you are so mercifully free of the ravages of intelligence."

I often say, "Buck up Little Camper" which is another Better Off Dead quote.

LF! How you doin'?
Another one I use all the time - and frankly, I'm shocked it isn't on the list:
"There can be only one."

I work in the IT department and my favorite movie line when a computer or server is slow to respond is Scotty from Star Trek IV: "Hellooo computer"
Nobody ever gets it though and thinks I'm some kind of nutball.

I've used all 10 of the lines at some point or another.
I use "I'm not." from Life of Brian all the time - it's a great retort when someone says spews out some ridiculous tripe like "we're all human."
TLF, Snatch is one of the funniest movies of all time!
I'm a quotes master, just ask Fist, we spent most of our time in NY spouting off Holy Grail lines.
