Did Your Favorite Line Make My List?

So, anyone that knows me, knows that I am a movie line guru. I am "that girl" that can recite any movie line in any situation. Spending 12 years as a bartender....this usually came in handy to entertain myself and others while we were setting up the bar and closing the bar...of course, usually a lot of alcohol was always involved.

This is my first list of my favorite 100 movie lines. I say my first list because, well, I have too many to fit into just one list so don't worry.....if your favorite movie line didn't make this list, maybe it will be on my next one!!

These are not in any special order either. I would love to put them in order but that's beyond my ambition level! Enjoy!

You didn't include the funniest movie line of all from When Harry Met Sally. An older woman watching Sally pretend to have an orgasm in the deli restaurant, says, "I'll have what she's having."

Loooooooved Step Brothers! - it has a ton of funny lines. What a laugh out loud movie - and then they made the bunk beds. Well, I had several favorite lines from this list including pig tracks on the ceiling and a boy's best friend is his mother (true by the way).

Fun hub! I rated it up!!!

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

I knew you would love the pig tracks! I have a special line from the Stewie..Family guy movie for you on the next list!! lol Thanks for the rating!

billyaustindillon Level 2 Commenter 2 years ago

So many great ones - have to agree Pulp Fiction is classic - do you recite like Samuel S. Jackson :)

Had to pick one:

"Sucking all the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bones." - Dead Poets Society

TattoGuy 2 years ago

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

lol..I love that you love number 6! The big Lebowski has to be one of the best movies ever made and I'm always so surprised at how many people have not seen this movie! Thanks for reading!

Wow! There are some good ones in there. I actually lost track of the ones I like the most! I do have to put in a vote for Pirates of the Caribbean, "have I threatened you before" line. Love Johnny Depp. Capitan Jack Sparrow is such an excellent character.

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

I know...he is sooo yummy and such a fabulous actor! I can't wait to see him in Alice in Wonderland! Thanks for reading!

Micky Dee Level 4 Commenter 2 years ago

I've got to admit- the last one from Pulp Fiction is and will be my favorite for spiritual reasons. No doubt. We are our brother's keeper. We should be shepherding!

I truly love these from "As good As It Gets":

"People who talk in metaphors oughta shampoo my crotch."

But I can see Jack Nicholson saying though!

And: "You make me want to be a better man."

Harry Met Salley- number 16 - superb! Thanks hippherbivore!

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

Thanks for reading! I know....something about Jack Nicholson....he can say the same line as someone else but it always better coming from him! He is one of my favorite actors by far!

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

akirchner Level 4 Commenter 2 years ago

Great idea for a hub - one of my all time favorites was Good Will Hunting - 'it's not your fault' - something I can relate to in real life I guess but it was classic.

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

lmao....I can relate to that too!! Love it!

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 2 years ago

Oh I definitely will! It is started.....it's just so time consuming and one of those things that if a line pops in my head I write it down. If I force myself to think of them I get writer's block. lol Thanks for stopping by!

What a pleasure is this Hub! I enjoyed it greatly. My favorites would be 7, 30, 39, 42, & 76.

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 24 months ago

Oooooh you picked such good ones!!! I love that you picked one from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang!!

Suzi-Q 21 months ago

I loved the way The Worlf in Pulp Fiction said "Pretty please with sugar on top...clean the fucking car."

Another quote from the same charater that I love is "That's thirty minutes away. I'll be there in ten." And he get's there in 9.

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 21 months ago

lol...oh the first one about the fucking car is by far one of the greatest lines but of course I left it out because I was trying to keep the swearing to a minimum in the content so I didn't get flagged by anyone. lol

celebritie Level 2 Commenter 12 months ago

..I wanted to leave a comment/compliment for you at your wonderful cat caught in the engine story but there was no space so I pressed the buttons there in your honor and for the cat too!

And yes I love this hub and labor of love by you - what a great compilation you have assembled here - I am quite a film buff and a cat lover (they're my two best friends) so it's very nice to meet you and you have a wonderful selection of hubs - as in 'hubawesome' !!

theherbivorehippi profile image

theherbivorehippi Hub Author 12 months ago

lol..oh my gosh..thanks so much! Yeah, I removed all of the comment boxes off about 95% of my hubs since the new ad layout. I only left them on the hubs that see the most comments. Glad you enjoyed both hubs!

epigramman profile image

epigramman 12 months ago

....well I respect your choice to do so - but on the other hand it's always so nice to receive feedback and commentary on any hub after putting so much time and effort into your hubs as you do - and so very well!

Cogerson Level 8 Commenter 12 months ago

Very nicely done. Very impressive that you listed quotes from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.....a movie I do believe is gaining ground each year.....in 20 years people will think the movie was a box office hit when it first got released...my favorite did not make your list....how about...."Who are those guys"....from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.....voted up
