Dark Shadows Angelique Bouchard-"Make the high and mighty low. Arrogant creatures, down you go." Angelique Bouchard -"If I can't have you, my love, I will destroy you." Barnabas Collins-"It is said that blood is thicker than water. It is what defines us. Binds us. Curses us."
Starship Troopers Johnny Rico: "Mr. Rasczak, I want to join the Federal Service and become a citizen. But my Dad thinks I should go to college and remain a civilian as he has. What should I do?" Jean Rasczak: "Figuring things out for yourself is practically the only freedom anyone really has nowadays. Use that freedom." Dizzy Flores: "My mother always told me that violence doesn't solve anything." Jean Rasczak: "Really? I wonder what the city founders of Hiroshima would have to say about that." Jean Rasczak: "You." (to Carmen Ibanez) Carmen Ibanez: "They wouldn't say anything. Hiroshima was destroyed." Jean Rasczak: "Correct. Naked force has resolved more conflicts throughout history than any other factor. The contrary opinion, that violence doesn't solve anything, is wishful thinking at its worst; people who forget that always die." Career Sergeant Zim: "Anytime you think I'm being too rough, anytime you think I'm being too tough, anytime you miss-your-mommy, QUIT! You sign your 1248, you get your gear, and you take a stroll down washout lane. Do you get me?" Private Ace Levy is having difficulty with throwing knives during Knife Throwing Drills Ace Levy: "Sir, I don't understand. Who needs a knife in a nuke fight anyway? All you gotta do is push a button, sir." Career Sergeant Zim: "Cease fire. Put your hand on that wall trooper. PUT YOUR HAND ON THAT WALL!" Zim retrieves a knife from the target wall & throws it hitting Ace's hand, pinning it to the wall Career Sergeant Zim: "The enemy can not push a button... if you disable his hand. Medic!" Jean Rasczak: (to Johnny Rico upon realizing Dizzy Flores has feelings for him) "You once asked me for advice. You want some now? Never pass up a good thing." Johnny Rico: "Someone asked me once if I knew the difference between a civilian and a citizen. I know now. A citizen has the courage to make the safety of the human race their personal responsibility. Dizzy was my friend. She was a soldier. But most important, she was a citizen of the Federation." Johnny Rico: "These are the rules. Everybody fights, nobody quits. If you don't do your job I'll kill you myself. Welcome to the Roughnecks." Private Sugar Watkins: "Rico's Roughnecks!!"
Yeah it's a great sci-fi/action human race vs inhuman/alien/monster movie. Some great & memorable lines throughout, some of them memorable however because they are cheesy, like : " The only good bug is a dead bug" or "Shoot a nuke down a bug hole, you got a lot of dead bugs."

Yeah. It didn't try to be serious, just entertaining. Return of the Living Dead. Tina: "Why don't we go to the park?" Scuz: "Oh we can't, the cops said they'd shoot us if we go back to the park." Spider: "Yeah, and I ain't in no mood to die tonight." Trash: "I like death." Chuck: "I like death with sex. Casey, do you like sex with death?" Casey: "Yeah so fuck off and die." Trash: "Do you ever wonder about all the different ways of dying? You know, violently? And wonder, like, what would be the most horrible way to die?" Spider: "I try not too think about dying too much." Trash:" Mm. Well for me, the worst way would be for a bunch of old men to get around me, and start biting and eating me alive." Spider: "I see." Trash: "First, they would tear off my clothes..." Chuck: "Hey, somebody get some light over here, Trash is taking off her clothes again." Burt: "I thought you said if we destroyed the brain, it'd die!" Frank: "It worked in the movie!" Burt: "Well, it ain't working now, Frank!" Freddy: "You mean the movie lied?" Paramedic #1: "You have no pulse, your blood pressure's zero-over-zero, you have no pupillary response, no reflexes and your temperature is 70 degrees." Freddy: "Well, what does that mean?" Paramedic #1: "Well, it's a puzzle because, technically, you're not alive. Except you're conscious, so we don't know what it means." Freddy: "Are you saying we're dead?" Paramedic #2: "Well, let's not jump to conclusions." Freddy: "Are you saying we're dead?" Paramedic #2: "No conclusions." Paramedic #1: "Obviously I didn't mean you were really dead. Dead people don't move around and talk."
The Avengers Steve Rogers: "Big man in a suit of armor. Take that off, what are you?" Tony Stark: "Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist." Steve Rogers: "I know guys with none of that worth ten of you. I've seen the footage; you fight for nobody but yourself. You're not the kind to make the sacrifice play, to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you." Tony Stark: "I think I would just cut the wire." Steve Rogers: "Always a way out. You know, you may not be a threat, but you better stop pretending to be a hero." Tony Stark: "A hero? Like you? You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers. Everything that's special about you came out of a bottle." Steve Rogers: "Put on the suit. Let's go a few rounds." Thor: (Laughs) "You people are so petty... and tiny." Bruce Banner: "Yeah, this is a team..." Nick Fury: "Agent Romanoff, would you escort Dr. Banner back to his.." Bruce Banner: "Where? You're renting my room." Nick Fury: "The cell was just.." Bruce Banner: "In case you needed to kill me, but you can't! I know, I tried! (The others stare at him, surprised) "I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth, and the Other Guy spit it out! So I moved on. I focused on helping other people. I was good, until you dragged me back into this freak show and put everyone here at risk. You wanna know my secret, Agent Romanoff? You wanna know how I stay calm?"

Lethal Weapon Martin Riggs-"You're General Peter McAllister, commander of Shadow Company. McAllister-"Well. It seems we've heard of each other." Riggs-"Yeah. It would only a shame when I nail you." McAllister laughs. Riggs-"You see, I went up against some of those Shadow Company pussies in 'Nam in about 69." McAllister-"Oh, you did, did you?"
"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force."

Troy Love this movie. :smt004 Messenger Boy: Are the stories true? They say your mother was an immortal godess. They say you can't be killed. Achilles: I wouldn't be bothering with the shield then, would I? Messenger Boy: The Thesselonian you're fighting... he's the biggest man i've ever seen. I wouldn't want to fight him. Achilles: Thats why no-one will remember your name. Menelaus: What son of a king would accept a man's hospitality, eat his food, drink his wine, embrace him in friendship, and then steal his wife in the middle of the night? Paris: The sun was shining when your wife left you. Achilles: Go home, prince. Drink some wine, make love to your wife. Tomorrow, we'll have our war. Hector: You speak of war as if it's a game. But how many wives wait at Troy's gates for husbands they'll never see again? Achilles: Perhaps your brother can comfort them. I hear he's good at charming other men's wives. Hector: (To Paris) You say you're willing to die for love but you know nothing about dying and you know nothing about love! Hector: I've seen this moment in my dreams. I'll make a pact with you. With the gods as our witnesses, let us pledge that the winner will allow the loser all the proper funeral rituals. Achilles: There are no pacts between lions and men. Hector: I thought it was you I was fighting yesterday. And I wish it had been, but I gave the dead boy the honor he deserved. Achilles: You gave him the honor of your sword. You won't have eyes tonight; you won't have ears or a tongue. You will wander the underworld blind, deaf, and dumb, and all the dead will know: This is Hector. The fool who thought he killed Achilles. Odysseus: War is young men dying and old men talking. You know this. Ignore the politics. Achilles: I'll tell you a secret. Something they don't teach you in your temple. The Gods envy us. They envy us because we're mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.
Some of the best lines on film. Loved this movie. _____________________________________________ Key Largo (A Bogey, Eddie G., Lauren Bacall CLASSIC): Major (after being injured): By the way they answered, there was something fishy. So l put in a call to Ben Wade, but the lights went out on me. I woke up in there. Rocco was standing over me. I recognized him right away from pictures. I made a break for the door, and the lights went out again. Toots (Rocco's henchman): Yeah, and I'm the electrician. Edward G. Robinson as Johnny Rocco: "Johnny Rocco: You'd give your left arm to nail me wouldn't you? I could see the headlines now, 'Local Deputy Captures Johnny Rocco'. Your picture'd be in all the papers. You might even get to tell on the newsreels how you pulled if off, yeah. Listen hick, I was too much for any big city police force to handle. It took the United States Government to pin a rap on me. And they won't make it stick. You hick, I'll be back pulling strings to get guys elected mayor and governor before you get a ten buck raise."
Good movie with some great lines & battle scenes. I don't understand why it gets hated on by some people.
Big budget adaptations of classics always get hated on. Honestly, I don't think there was much they could have done to improve that film.
