Info: Your Favorite Movie Quotes

[Dion]

I just had to throw this one in there: Near the end of The Bridge Too Far movie when the Allied generals are each giving a reason why the mission failed and one of the generals says "It doesn't matter what it was, when one man says to another, what to do today? I know, lets play a war-game ... everybody dies"

Luckily now, let's play war games and let pixel soldiers die

Happens sooner or later to all of us. Might as well go out with a bang instead of a whimper. Anyway here's one of my favorites from Zulu ("You're all going to die!"--Jack Hawkins as Reverend Otto Witt):

It's a WAR ROOM for pete's sake!
(presumably, one can fight in the Peace Room then).

A nice diversion this:
1. "Though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship is England." - Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey
Master and Commander - The far side of the world. Russell Crowe

2. "I know, the cooler." - The Great Escape. Steve McQueen

3. "Terminate with extreme prejudice." - To Lt. Willard concerning Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando). Apocalypse Now. Martin Sheen

4. "I will leave no man behind...dead or alive. We will all come home together." Lt. Col Hal Moore as addressed to his men and their families. - We were Soldiers. Mel Gibson

5. "Irene, Irene, Sweet Irene" - Black Hawk Down. Josh Hartnett
A code word the USA would prefer never to use again.

6. "Your highness you must be mistaken, I am but a blacksmith." - Kingdom of Heaven. Orlando Bloom.

From my all time favorites...

7. "If you build it they will come." and "Go the Distance." - Field of Dreams. Kevin Costner (I think those words drive Andy and Don every year with minor modification!?!)

8. "Run Away!!", "Neep!", "Tis but a flesh wound." and "It's only a bunny rabbit." The Holy Grail. Monty Python.

Yeah, Dr. Strangelove is a hoot of a movie. One of my favorites is from the B-52 commander after he dons his cowboy hat:

"Well, boys, I reckon this is it. New-q-lure combat, toe-to-toe with the Rooskies. Now look, boys. I ain't much of a hand at makin' speeches. But I got a pretty fair idea that somethin' doggoned important's going on back there. And I got a fair idea of the kind of personal emotions that some of you fellas may be thinkin'. Heck, I reckon you wouldn't even be human beins if you didn't have some pretty strong personal feelings about nuclear combat. But I want you to remember one thing - the folks back home is a countin' on ya, and by golly, we ain't about to let 'em down. Tell ya somethin' else - this thing turns out to be half as important as I figure it just might be, I'd say that you're all in line for some important promotions an' personal citations when this thing's over with. That goes for every last one of ya, regardless of your race, color, or your creed. Now, let's get this thing on the hump. We got some flyin' to do."
