You've got me on the other quote though. Made me laugh, but I don't think I know it.
A hint - the movie was directed by Terry Gilliam. Probably not a very well known one.
"Where are the weapons?"
"Feel one."
Can't say that rings a bell...

Doctor who?
Have you any famous last words. . .
Adventures of Baron +something else i can't remember :-/
Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.

Ah, could the GM be stumped?
Godfather, not a million miles off with Dr Who. Certainly in the right sort of genre.
This is not an obvious quote, as there are many from this highly quotable film. Think cult-ish, think camp.

I'm sorry if this quote was exclusive for Michal...but considering he hasn't answered it, I will:. "Flash Gordon" (oh, that was a great movie )

Nice one Malia - I'm impressed. Glad I didn't have to go the obvious route - for there are many.
I loved this film as a kid and it still gets me now. How can this film still be so funny. Great cast too... it doesn't mean too much when you're younger, but re-viewing and recognising people like Timothy Dalton and Richard O'Brien is a blast.
All hail Flash Gordon, saviour of the universe!

Why? :
I loved this film as a kid and it still gets me now. How can this film still be so funny.
Classics films remain funny (in this case)
The atmosphere the movie creates and the scenography are superb! Just remember the scene where Dalton's character (can't remember the name) challenges Flash Gordon in that creepy rock full of holes and... Ok, if anyone wants to know what happens (who wins, if one of them dies or not) watch the film!
But that scene is just unforgettable )
Great cast too... it doesn't mean too much when you're younger, but re-viewing and recognising people like Timothy Dalton and Richard O'Brien is a blast.
on't forget Ornella Mutti...She was just perfect in the film, and incredibly beautiful
All hail Flash Gordon, saviour of the universe!

That whole chunk of film in "arbor" (isn't it called?) is fantastic. (remember that great gag with Flash and Ornella Mutti flying over and nearly crashing on the ice planet of "Frigia" when she's trying to seduce him in the cockpit? )
One amusing anecdote about this film - I saw it in the cinema when it was first released as a little boy. I must have been about five years old. At the moment Flash is "eaten" by the swampy monster after narrowly avoiding death by quicksand apparently I said loudly, "well, Mummy, it looks like it's not Flash Gordon's day" to the amusement of the entire auditorium. that one get's rolled out at family get-togethers every so often as you might imagine. :

Oh, that explains it. But I also watched Flash Gordon as a girl, and re-watched it many times!

Yes, arbor. Arbor men, and all that. But still can't remember Dalton's character name. ???
(remember that great gag with Flash and Ornella Mutti flying over and nearly crashing on the ice planet of "Frigia" when she's trying to seduce him in the cockpit? )
LOL! Who could forget it??!! (I'll always remember -and laugh- Flash's face while she was playing with the ship's switchboard and especially with the lever )

I think I could go on quoting this film all day long. Instead, something new, an easy one.....

You are so right... Kids can be so annoying in the movies (but I was a little girl, not too long ago :, and if my memory serves me well, I used to bother people in the movies with my comments) Anyway, I'm a grown up now, and have the "right" complain about kids behaviour at movie theaters all I want
Malia: Prince Barin wasn't it. "Freeze, you bloody bastards!"
"Tricked you Barin! ... Back off. One move and you're looking for a new prince"
"If they catch you they will kill you..... but first they must catch you."
I watched "Watership down" just a few years ago, in a film festival... Nice movie -poor rabits :-

I blame the mass of children I had the misfortune of seeing the Lion King with for the first time for totally ruining it for me. I've seen it since and liked it much mroe, but there's still the distant whining noise in my head punctuated by the classic phrases 'what does that mean, mummy? what's that, mummy? why's he doing that, mummy?" whenever I watch it *shudder* :

I'll never out-quote you Malia, you're too on my wave-length. I read the book last year and got totally caught up in it. It's fantastic - really worth the read. Made me cry too, which is pretty rare for a book as nearly all of my emotional response is reserved for audio/visual!

That has only happened to me only two or three times in my life, and I dare say I've read quite a few books. One that I remember was a sort of a short story by L.M. Montgomery which can incidentally be found here (expired copyrights are a good thing!).
But back on topic. Here's another quote:
"...and at that moment all the winkles cast off their shells and use them as megaphones to announce the concert.... then the hammerhead shark plays the xylophone with catfish bones... the sea is blue like the sky and the sky is blue like the south seas and I don't know if I'm swimming in the sky or flying at the bottom of the sea - I swear it gives me the shivers!"

LOL! So true... As Giger said once, a single child is a charming creature, but a bunch of kids...that can be creepy (e.g., Sanitarium, chapter 2 )
"No! No! Not de Bore Vorms! Farder!"
(Ahh, poor Aura :)
Remember this dialogue? (not sure how accurate it is, but you'll get the concept)
Aura: Look! Water is leaking from her eyes...
Miing: It's what they call tears. It's a sign of their weakness.
(I just loved that scene... Ming is probably one of the most evil characters in movies history!)
I'll never out-quote you Malia, you're too on my wave-length.
It's always great to find people with a similar taste for movies (and what an exquisite taste we have )
I read the book last year and got totally caught up in it. It's fantastic - really worth the read.
Haven't read the book, yet... But if you say it's worth reading, I'll try to get my hands on it

I still think Lord of the Flies is perfect in this regard... but that game of hide and seek they played in Sanitarium was quite something too.
And that quote of Giger's could be just as easily applied to adults

Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.
