Better Off Dead
Courtesy38 Posted Dec 14, 1999
a great John Cusak classic, I'm not sure if classic fits but I'm sticking with it
Lane Myer: "Gee Ricky, I'm really sorry your mom blew up last night"
Another scene:
Charles DuMar: "Buck up little camper. I could be at home right now drinking this killer egg nog my brother makes with lighter fluid."
And yet another:
French foreign exchange student: "He keeps trying to put his testicles all over me" (said with French accent)
Lane Myer: "His WHAT?!?"
FFES: "How do you say .... Octopus?"
Lane: "TENTacles, TENTacles, there's a difference"

"This mountain is made of pure snow! Do you have any idea the street value of this mountain? Look I froze the left side of my brain - I can't move my right arm!" Charles, also in Better Off Dead (Love that flick!)
Better Off Dead
Courtesy38 Posted Dec 14, 1999
I have it on VHS
The best part of that scene is when Charles DuMar says he can't move his right arm (While he's moving his right arm)
Lane on how to ski the K12: "So what do I do?"
Charles: (pointing down the slope) "You go that way really fast. If something gets in your way, then turn"
Probably one of the best quote films of all time.
Better Off Dead

Lane: "Two brothers. One doesn't speak any english. The other learned how to speak english by watching Wide World of Sports. So you tell me which is worse. Speaking no english or speaking Howard Cousel?"
*in best Howard Cousel voice*

I agree with whoever said Robin Hood; Men in Tights was the best movie ever! It's brilliant. I also love, as many here must do, The Princess Bride:
Inigo: I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
Man in black: Do you always begin conversations this way?
Inigo: You seem a decent fellow; I hate to kill you.
Man in black: You seem a decent fellow; I hate to die.
Humperdinck: Surrender!
Westley: You mean you wish to surrender to me? Very well then, I accept.
I'll stop it with the PB quotes now, but I could go on and on and on...
My favourite Robin Hood quotes:
Prince John: And why should the people listen to you?
Robin: Because, unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent!
Latrine: Robin of Loxley is handsome and brave, he seeks to regain his family's homour, little sod could be trouble!
And just to set the record straight. Cary Elwes (who I think is gorgeous and has one of the best accents in the world) was born in London but moved to America in 1980.

"How does it work?"
"Well, it's quite simple really. You take one of these rocks, place it here, where I'm sitting and pull on that lever."
"What like this?"
"Arrrrggghhhhhh!"
- Sorry, couldn't resist!

"Hey Robin, man. You don't have to do this! This ain't exactly the Mississippi. I'm on one side, I'm on the other side, I'm on the left bank, I'm on the right bank. It is not that critical!"
"That's not the point! It's the principle of the thing."
"Nice knowing ya!"
