Favorite Movies

I thought it would be neat to see what kind of movies people here like. My all time favorite is Band of Brothers followed by A Bridge to Far. Both were based on real events about the paratroopers in WW2. Band of Brothers was an HBO mini series and not just a movie. Ah well, close enough.

Adventure-Jaws
War-Longest Day
Comedy-Rat Race
Scary-Psycho
Sci Fi-2001 A Space Odyssey
Crime-Dirty Harry & The French Connection

freeby and the bean 1973 maybe 1975

Full Metal Jacket

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Are you quitting on me? Well, are you? Then quit, you slimy *censored* walrus-looking piece of *censored*. Get the *censored* off of my obstacle. Get the *censored* down off of my obstacle. Now. Move it. I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world. I will motivate you, Private Pyle, if it short-dicks every cannibal on the Congo.

1) Midway
2) Forrest Gump
3) Saving Private Ryan

Great Movie!

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human, *censored* beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian *censored*. Because I am hard you will not like me. But the more you hate me the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on *censored*, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Corps. Do you maggots understand that?

[i]Door Gunner: Git some! Git some! Git some, yeah, yeah, yeah! Anyone that runs, is a VC. Anyone that stands still, is a well-disciplined VC! You guys oughta do a story about me sometime!
Private Joker: Why should we do a story about you?
Door Gunner: 'Cuz I'm so *censored*' good! I done got me 157 dead gooks killed. Plus 50 water buffalo too! Them's all confirmed!
Private Joker: Any women or children?
Door Gunner: Sometimes!
Private Joker: How can you shoot women or children?
Door Gunner: Easy! Ya just don't lead 'em so much! Ain't war hell?


Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: What's your excuse?
Private Cowboy: Sir, excuse for what, sir?
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: I'm asking the *censored* questions here private. Do you understand?
Private Cowboy: Sir, yes, sir.
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Well thank you very much, can I be in charge for a while?
Private Cowboy: Sir, yes, sir. [/i]

Private Joker: Sir, the private believes that any answer he gives will be wrong! And his senior drill instructor will beat him harder if he reverses himself, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Private Joker is silly and ignorant, but he's got guts. And guts is enough.



Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Private Joker, why did you join my beloved Corps?
Private Joker: Sir, to kill, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: So you're a killer?
Private Joker: Sir, yes sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Then let me see your war face!
Private Joker: [nervously] Sir?
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: You got a war face! AAAAAAAAHH! That's a war face, let me see your war face!
Private Joker: Ahhhh!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Bullshit. You didn't convince me. let me see your REAL war face!
Private Joker: [Screaming] AHHHHHHHHHHH!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: You don't scare me! Work on it!
Private Joker: Sir, yes sir!

Full Metal Jacket was awesome. Some of the lines Bad Mutha had cracked me up.

My favorite line from Band of Brothers at the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge, We're paratroopers Lieutenant, we're supposed to be surrounded.

Private Joker: Well, pilgrim, only after you eat the peanuts out of my *censored*.
Animal Mother: You talk the talk. Do you walk the walk?



Animal Mother: Well, if you ask me, uh, we're shooting the wrong gooks.

[being interviewed]
Animal Mother: What do I think about the U.S. involvement in the war? We should win it.

Animal Mother: *censored* you Cowboy, *censored* all of you *censored*!

That's another of my favorites, Joe Pesci stole the show in that one.

Outlaw Josey Wales

Carpetbagger: This is it... one dollar a bottle. It works wonders on wounds.
Josey Wales: Works wonders on just about everything, eh?
Carpetbagger: It can do most anything.
Josey Wales: [spits tobacco juice on the carpetbagger's coat] How is it with stains?

Dirty Harry






Bank Robbery scene:



Harry Callahan: I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
Bank Robber: I gots to know.


Another good one from the same movie:

[after a battered crook has accused Harry of beating him]
Chief: Have you been following that man?
Harry Callahan: Yeah, I've been following him on my own time. And anybody can tell I didn't do that to him.
Chief: How?
Harry Callahan: Cause he looks too damn good, that's how!

Sense and Sensibility

Edward- What I want, what I have always wanted, is the quiet of a private life; but my mother is determined to see me distinguished.
Elinor- As?
Edward- Anything! A great orator, a leading politician...even a barrister would serve...as long as I drove a barouche and dined in the first circles.
Elinor- What do you wish for?
Edward- (thinks) I've always preferred the Church; but that is not smart enough for my mother. She prefers the army, but that is a great deal too smart for me!
(both laughing)
Elinor- Would you stay in London?
Edward- I hate London; no peace. A country Living is my ideal; a small parish where I might do some good...keep chickens...give very short sermons...
(Elinor chuckles)
