I’m at Sonic right now waiting for anyone that thinks that cheese shite is better than the President’s speech in Armageddon

Lot of great ones mentioned already, so I'll add Edward Norton's long arse, insane, rant to his reflection in the mirror from 25th Hour.

quote:

Yeah, frick you, too. frick *me*? frick *you*, frick you and this whole city and everyone in it. frick the panhandlers, grubbing for money, and smiling at me behind my back. frick the squeegee men dirtying up the clean windshield of my car - get a fricking job! frick the Sikhs and the Pakistanis bombing down the avenues in decrepit cabs, curry steaming out their pores stinking up my day. Terrorists in fricking training. SLOW THE frick DOWN! frick the Chelsea boys with their waxed chests and pumped-up biceps. Going down on each other in my parks and on my piers, jingling their dicks on my Channel 35. frick the Korean grocers with their pyramids of overpriced fruit and their tulips and roses wrapped in plastic. Ten years in the country, still no speaky English? frick the Russians in Brighton Beach. Mobster thugs sitting in cafés, sipping tea in little glasses, sugar cubes between their teeth. Wheelin' and dealin' and schemin'. Go back where you fricking came from! frick the black-hatted Chassidim, strolling up and down 47th street in their dirty gabardine with their dandruff. Selling South African apartheid diamonds! frick the Wall Street brokers. Self-styled masters of the universe. Michael Douglas, Gordon Gekko wannabe mother frickers, figuring out new ways to rob hard working people blind. Send those Enron assholes to jail for frickING LIFE! You think Bush and Cheney didn't know about that shite? Give me a fricking break! Tyco! Worldcom! frick the Puerto Ricans. Twenty to a car, swelling up the welfare rolls, worst frickin' parade in the city. And don't even get me started on the Dom-in-i-cans, 'cause they make the Puerto Ricans look good. frick the Bensonhurst Italians with their pomaded hair, their nylon warm-up suits, their St. Anthony medallions, swinging their Jason Giambi Louisville Slugger baseball bats, trying to audition for "The Sopranos." frick the Upper East Side wives with their Hermès scarves and their fifty-dollar Balducci artichokes. Overfed faces getting pulled and lifted and stretched, all taut and shiny. You're not fooling anybody, sweetheart! frick the uptown brothers. They never pass the ball, they don't want to play defense, they take five steps on every lay-up to the hoop. And then they want to turn around and blame everything on the white man. Slavery ended one hundred and thirty seven years ago. Move the frick on! frick the corrupt cops with their anus-violating plungers and their 41 shots, standing behind a blue wall of silence. You betray our trust! frick the priests who put their hands down some innocent child's pants. frick the church that protects them, delivering us into evil. And while you're at it, frick J.C.! He got off easy! A day on the cross, a weekend in hell, and all the hallelujahs of the legioned angels for eternity! Try seven years in frickin' Otisville, J.! frick Osama Bin Laden, al-Qaeda, and backward-arse cave-dwelling fundamentalist assholes everywhere. On the names of innocent thousands murdered, I pray you spend the rest of eternity with your seventy-two whores roasting in a jet-fuel fire in hell. You towel-headed camel jockeys can kiss my royal Irish arse! frick Jacob Elinsky. Whining malcontent. frick Francis Xavier Slaughtery my best friend, judging me while he stares at my girlfriend's arse. frick Naturelle Riviera, I gave her my trust and she stabbed me in the back, sold me up the river, fricking bitch. frick my father with his endless grief, standing behind that bar sipping on club sodas, selling whisky to firemen, and cheering the Bronx Bombers. frick this whole city and everyone in it. From the row-houses of Astoria to the penthouses on Park Avenue, from the projects in the Bronx to the lofts in Soho. From the tenements in Alphabet City to the brownstones in Park Slope to the split-levels in Staten Island. Let an earthquake crumble it, let the fires rage, let it burn to fricking ash and then let the waters rise and submerge this whole rat-infested place.

2) Bill Pullmam's "today we celebrate our Independence Day." from Independence Day.

Eulogy for Theodore Donald Karabatsulos- Big Lebowski

I still think think this scene is probably the hardest I’ve laughed when seeing a movie for the first time

"A Mercury is a good car. That's the car I was driving that day. I've had a lot of cars. Different kinds. Lot's of different kinds of cars. She was standing - this girl - on the side of the street where there was this chicken stand, wasn't the Colonel but it was a chicken stand nonetheless. I pulled the Mercury up right along side her and rolled down the window, see, by electric power. She had on a leather skirt and had a lot of hair on her arms. I like that a lot. That means a big bush. I like a big bush. She says, "Are you dating?" You know, so I said, "Sure." She gets in and we pull off to a remote location that was comfortable for both she and I. She says, "How much do you wanna spend?", I said, "Whatever it will take to see that bush of yours because I know it's a big one." She says, "Twenty five dollars." That's not chicken feed to a working man so I produce the $25, she puts it in her shoe, pulls up her skirt and there before me lay this thin, crooked, uncircumcised penis. You can imagine how bad I wanted my $25 back, huh"

I can’t believe no one mentioned Robert Duvall as Captain Kilgore in Apocalypse Now.

not the best but i always liked this speech by Vin Diesel in Knockaround guys

500 fights, that's the number I figured when I was a kid. 500 street fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate tough guy. You need them for experience. To develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then, after, you realize that's what you are.

Doing my yearly firefly rewatch made me think of this



quote:

This report is maybe twelve years old. Parliament buried it, and it stayed buried til River dug it up. This is what they feared she knew. And they were right to fear, 'cause there's a universe of folk that are gonna know it too. They're gonna see it. Somebody has to speak for these people. You all got on this boat for different reasons, but you all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. 'Cause as sure as I know anything I know this: They will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground, swept clean. A year from now, ten, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more running. I aim to misbehave.
