"military film"
If I'm right, that's sort of a loose description! ;) Is it Hot Shots?

Duck Soup?
Seems like an obvious guess.

it's been two days (day and a half)...top gun, lloyd bridges. The response to the line is:
"Duck sir." The admiral hits his head on the desk trying to duck in instinctually. "Are you alright sir?" "Why, what have you heard?" Who's up? |

Okay, I just watched this movie again last night. There are so many great lines I'm having a tough time choosing! But here goes:
Aaauugh!! For the love of God! Does no one else hear that infernal ringing??!?

Let's add to it; this might help jog a memory...
Go ahead and laugh, play basketball, have fun. In the meantime I've got *bleep* Quasimodo goin' off in my head. Bell Tower!! You understand me? I got a bell tower IN MY HEAD!

Released in 2001, directed by Barry Levinson. Two Golden Globe nominations (best actor, best actress).

Sorry, I was out to lunch (so to speak) or I would have gotten this sooner. I LOVE this movie. It is called BANDITS, and these lines you post are spoken by Billy Bob Thorton who, along with Bruce Willis form a pair of crooks known as the Sleepover Bandits. They filmed some of this in a tiny sleepy little town nearby and pretty much made the talk of the town for a little while.
Great and fun movie. -Jon

You're right, Jonathan. Every time Billy Bob Thornton opened his mouth it was a quotable, perfect line. Even when he wasn't talking his expressions cracked me up. I think he's a great actor.
Your turn! :)

Okay, well then here is a fun one from one of my very favorite movies of all time though it is a little older (late 80's)
It is very hard to choose a line since it is completely filled to the brim with quotable lines. Here is one: X1: You mean you busted out of jail. X2: No, ma'am. We released ourselves on our own recognizance. X3: What my brother here means to say is that we felt the institution no longer had anything to offer us. -Jon

You are so right about that... Raising Arizona. First DVD I ever bought.
In a similar vein here's mine: "You know... for kids!" |
