re: What actor can lay claim to having the most quoted lines from their movies?

My top 5:

Jim Carry
Will Ferral
Samuel L Jackson
Ben Stiller - like it or not Meet the Parents, Zoolander, Tropic Thunder, Dodgeball, and Starsky and Hutch have a shite ton of quotable material
Trey Parker - I quote south park more than anything and he should be on this list because he writes all the lines. Plus "Cannibal: The Musical" is pure brilliance

Simmons! Simmons is old, but he can't go home 'cause he hates his wife!

You've met her at the Christmas parties. She's the one that gets plastered and calls him a retard! And you, Tom, you're the biggest brownnose I've ever seen! You've got your head so far up Mr. Allen's arse, I can't tell where you end and he begins!

First thought was Clint.

My vote goes to Arnold.

I know not at the top but Val Kilmer should get a mention for Tombstone alone. I once had his every line in the movie memorized. Probably could still quote 90% of it

Me and you both, the wife got sick of "I'm your huckleberry", "your ah daisy if ya do" etc.

I agree. I quote comedy movies more than serious movies and Will Ferrell is top dog in that category

---

I'm thinking the under 45 crowd is going to be tuned into the comedy stuff when it comes to quotable lines.

Action heroes & comedic actors will be on the list.

Quote HOF
1.Clint
2.Arnold
3.Pacino

Jim Caray

"Can I have another one of these with some booze in it?"

"You're on a gravy train with biscuit wheels."

"Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you."

"Nobody steps on a church in my town"

"You never say, "I'm gonna fight you, Steve". You just smile and act natural, and then you sucker-punch him."

"We're gonna need champagne for 250 people, and send the stuff that you send to me. Don't send the stuff that I send to other people."

"To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Cong."

"All right! This chick is TOAST!"

"I make it a rule never to get involved with possessed people... Actually, it's more of a guideline than a rule."

"C'mon, it's Czechoslovakia. We zip in, we pick 'em up, we zip right out again. We're not going to Moscow. It's Czechoslovakia. It's like going into Wisconsin."

"Alright, I gotta hang up now, because I gotta go kill everybody."

"I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over and over and over?"

"Yes, it's true. This man has no dick."

"You know I'm not big on apologizing. So I'll just skip it if it's all the same to you."
