1. Hmm. Nothing from Mommie Dearest-

"Don't fuck with ME, fellas!"

"Tina!! Bring me the axe!"

and the standby- "NO..WIRE..HANGERS!"

[tsakshaug]

4. #72

[Kahuna]

7. No wire hangers is..

number 72 on the list! Oddly enough, "Tina! Bring me the axe! Didn't make it. That's just wrong. }(

[tjwmason]

2. I have to admit that I'm nearly crying by that point.

Just as Scarlet realises what she has and what she truly wants, he strides out leaving her lost.

[In_The_Wind]

5. sometimes life is like that

x(

too little - too late

[arwalden]

3. I've Had Two Years To Grow Claws, Mother.... JUNGLE RED!

Get me a bromide... and put some GIN in it!

[BuelahWitch]

6. I never heard "Nobody puts Baby in the Corner"

But it won out over "I'll get you my pretty-and your little dog too!"

Maybe b/c I've only seen Dirty Dancing once but Wizard of Oz many, many times...

[Kahuna]

9. It's a great list. Thought the rankings are a bit dubious.

:thumbsup:

[tsakshaug]

10. #46

[tsakshaug]

8. Maybe

I will spend the day speaking in numbers, instead of using the quotes....
so #37

[nuxvomica]

11. I have to admit, it's a pretty good list

Most movie lists are not very representative IMHO but this one rings true. I have a few comments, though:
#96: Why not "Thank you for answering my question."?
#50: I swear that quote's popularity predates the movie.
#7,#24: I think "We had faces then!" is the most memorable quote from that movie.

[NewJeffCT]

16. I think you're right on #50

Isn't that an actual quote from the mission?

[nuxvomica]

19. Yes and folks quoted it a lot before the movie

We would often say that when we had system problems at work.

[quisp]

12. What about

"We're gonna need a bigger boat!"
Roy Scheider, Jaws, 1975

[quisp]

13. oops! It's number 35, my bad.

[GOPisEvil]

14. #35

[newportdadde]

15. "I am your father!" Not even on the list?

Isn't even on the list :wtf:.... COME ON. It should at least be swapped out with "May the force be with you".

That quote has been used in so many films, TV sketches etc, its so ingrained into our culture now. Can't believe its not on there and not in the top 20 at least.

[Beware the Beast Man]

17. "Say hello to my leetle fren!" was only #62.

A sad injustice.

[NewJeffCT]

18. pretty good list, but I'd have chosen another from Caddyshack

"Be the ball."

and, basically anything from Rodney in that movie:
"I bet if you buy this hat, they give you a free bowl of soup... oh, looks good on you, though."

"You must have been something before electricity!"
