"Now if there's one thing you can be sure of, it's that nothing is more powerful than a young boy's wish. Except an Apache helicopter. An Apache helicopter has machine guns AND missiles. It is an unbelievably impressive complement of weaponry, an absolute death machine" (opening speech to ted) (Matt) |

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next. |

The late great Alan Hickman...
You asked for a miracle, I give you the FBI.
Or in response to why he would use a spoon to dig out someone's heart...
Because it will hurt more.
Two great lines delivered impeccably. |

But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will k!ll you. |

On a f***ing Suzuki?
Was It Over When the Germans Bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell No!
We're 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.... Hit it. |

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous of which is, ‘never get involved in a land war in Asia,’ but only slightly less well-known is this: ‘Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!’ |

“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you.”
- supposed to be Ezekiel 25:17 in the Bible (except it’s not exactly this) as said by Samuel L. Jackson, Pulp Fiction |

"“Those aren’t pillows”"
 The late great John Candy; brilliant scene.
Here's a few of my favourites. Not the most literary but in the context of the film, I loved them:-
"Yippy-ki-yay, motherfucker..." Die Hard
"Shut up. Just shut up... You had me at hello. You had me at hello."
AND
"You complete me" - 'Jerry Maguire'
SUNDANCE: "I can't swim"
BUTCH : "Butch Cassidy: [laughing] Why, you crazy - the fall'll probably kill ya!"
Aurora (catching Garret in the Airport before he boarded his flight) : "Do you have any reaction at all to my telling you I love you?"
Garrett: "I was just inches from a clean getaway" Jack Nicholson in 'Terms of Endearment'
Jason Bourne: "Get some rest Pam, you look tired"."The Bourne Ultimatum"

“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.” – Roy Batty |

""Your best, losers always whine about their best.
Winners go home and fuck the prom queen."
SC - The Rock
So many great quotes in that film "
Have you seen the whole conspiracy theory that the Character is James Bond (apparently imprisoned on later life). There’s timelines and other information that fits-but it is from T’internet !! |

Best thing about that was that Rutger Hauer rewrote the original script the night before and Ridley Scott agreed to keep it in as it was soooooooo well delivered |
