Well, the women folks be outta town till high noon Monday so the speakers on the TV are gonna be getting a workout as I decide Whut movies to ease my eyeballz on. Thought this would be a good time for anyone who wants to join in to share there favorite movie quote (none from “Fritz the Cat” please). I’ll start off with this one that had me laughing from the Outlaw Josey Wales where he an the elderly “Chief” are having a discussion about tagging along with Josey: "Whenever I get to liking someone they ain't around long." Chief: "I noticed when you get to disliking someone they ain't around for long neither."
John Wayne..... The Shootist.... "I won’t be wronged. I won’t be insulted. I won’t be laid a-hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them."
Frank Shirley in Christmas Vacation: "Now, if you’ll excuse me—I’m in the middle of an important call… get me somebody… anybody... and get me someone while I'm waiting!"
(You're gonna need a bigger boat) Is probably number 1? The mob movie quotes - Clint Eastwood stuff - A lot of the old sitcom quotes Especially the Honeymooners. But my personal favorite is a verse from the Merle Haggard song "I turned 21 in prison doing life without parole"
Elwood: "There's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark out, and we're wearing sunglasses." Jake: "Hit it!" Blues Brothers
So many in this movie - "Oh we got both kinds country-and-western" and "The Osmobiles are in early this year"
From Wedding Crashers- “Ma, can we get some meatloaf”? “Tattoo on the lower back, might as well be a bullseye”.
Fritz - your example is from one of my all time weekend PM faves. From the same I've always loved "Well - are you gonna pull them pistols or whistle Dixie?" For the record "Gone to Texas" is great reading and largely the original material for this great film. I've read it a few times.
From “O Brother Where Art Thou” where George Clooney’s character is told by the general store owner that his car part and hair jelly had to be ordered and would take 2 weeks to get there, Clooney’s response “Well isn’t this place a geographic oddity! Two weeks from everywhere!”
