'Play it, Sam, play it...' (but not again!!)
'Look at me Ma....top of the world'
'Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me...'
Wannabe, haven't you got better things to do at half past six on a Sunday morning?
Almost every line in Firefly and Serenity do it for me.
However, a favourite from the latter;
In rising exasperation at his subordinates' incompetence and lack of response, The Operative;
"Target them. Target the Reavers, target everything...... SOMEBODY FIRE!!!!".
Serenity .... a very underrated and commonly unknown film!
I have loads of favourite scenes/quotes in films, but one that is certainly up there is ......
"I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?" - Mr Jackson at his best.
Half the dialogue of The 13th Warrior, too!!!!One in particular, though...
Norsemen chatter in Norse, which gradually fades into English, signifying the Arab character slowly understanding...
Healfdane: "She probably was some smoke-coloured camp girl... looked like that one's mother" (points at Ahmed ibn Fadhlan).
Ahmed: (supposedly in halting Norse) "My mother.... was.... a pure woman.... from... a noble family.... and I... at least.... know.... who... my.... father is, you.... pig-eating..... son of a whore....."
Healfdane goes to deck him. Herger holds him back and demands of Ahmed;
Herger: "Where did you learn our language??!!"
Ahmed: "...... I LISTENED!!!!!!"
Herger: "........?"Herger: (in admiration and amazement) "Ah-hah hah hah hah hah hah!!!!!"
Best scene has to be the opening scene in The Hunger
Catherine Deneuve & David Bowie. Scene lasts for the length of the Bahaus track, Bela Logosi's Dead (Pete whatsisname, lead singer of Bahaus has a cameo in the scene as well).
Here's the You tube link to the scene.

Thanks for that link, shooter!
Just relived a bit of my childhood watching that again... (I had the 12" of Bela Lugosi's Dead and used to play it on guitar...)
That was taken many years ago when I was still respectable!
I wear no other colour than black now (with maybe red or white detailing).
mmm... woolly jumpers.... thinking about how you would crossbreed a sheep with a kangaroo.... maybe candelight... a good wine...
