Anything from a Zucker/Abrahams comedy...especially...

"What was it we had for dinner tonight?"
"Well, we had a choice of steak or fish."
"Yes, yes...I remember. I had lasagna."

A Few Good Men - whole movie (first time I noticed how good a script was in a movie)

Real Genius, Fletch, National Lampoon's Vacation:
"I'm going steady, and I french kiss..."
"So? Everybody does that."
"Yeah, but daddy says I'm the best at it"

Most Tarantino films, especially:
-The Christopher Walken / Dennis Hopper scene from True Romance
-The "basement pub scene" from Inglorious Basterds:
"Well, if this is it, old boy, I hope you don't mind if I go out speaking the King's."
"By all means, Captain."
"There's a special rung in hell reserved for people who waste good scotch. Seeing as how I may be rapping on the door momentarily...I must say, damn good stuff, Sir."

Fight Club, Seven, The Game:
"We're divorced. She remarried a pediatrician, or a gynecologist....a pediatric gynecologist. Lives in, uh, Sausalito."

Any Star Trek movie Nicholas Meyer was involved with...especially...
"To be or not to be, this is the question which preoccupies our people, Captain Kirk. We need breathing room."
"Earth. Hitler. 1938."
"I beg your pardon."

And speaking of Christopher Plummer...The Insider has some great dialogue:
"Are you questioning our journalistic integrity?"
"No, I'm questioning your hearing."

Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, Chinatown, Godfather, Butch Cassidy, 2001 (HAL scenes), Dr Strangelove, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Russia House...the list goes on.

Drax: You missed, Mr Bond.

Bond: Did I?


Desolated, Mr. Bond.

Heartbroken, Mr. Drax.

OK - it's big, but for me, completely worth it. From Winter Kills - an excerpt from the penultimate scene with Anthony Perkins (John Cerruti) and Jeff Bridges (Nick Kegan) in the ultimate Kennedy assassination conspiracy phantasmagoria. SPOILERS.

John Cerruti: This is the contract silo, Nick. Contracts, contracts, contracts. Agreements kept. Agreements broken. Papers, papers, papers. Signatures. Your father's holograph signature on his interlocking companies going back, oh, 30 years. Also those of diplomats, authors and inventors. Tax deals. Foundation deals. Signatures of presidents and sheikhs. Signatures to put men away for, oh, decades. Destroy careers, public lives, marriages, estates. Love affairs. Letters of passion, indiscretion and conspiracy... acquired by your father's intelligence network. Letters to persuade a man to close a deal or leave a job or sell out on his brother. Data necessary to sustain a financial empire. And here- Here are the spoken words. Shh. Voices and sounds. And visuals. Pictures on microfilm. Movies. Video. Marvelous little gadgets that document verbatim...all your father's conversations with all his people. And his people's conversations with others. From our satellite, we can watch everything. Nasty little wars in Africa. Troop movements. Ship movements. Nuclear tests. The Sinai. The Panama Canal. Every little thing to check an investment, buy us in or out. Even tonight, while most of our workers sleep, It goes on. [....] Information. Black holes of information. Galaxies within galaxies. Multiple expanding universes of information. Aren't you glad you came? Pa never allowed the family here in his office. Ah. Misjudgment. You'll run all this someday. You'll need to know.

Nick Kegan: All this and you couldn't find my brother's killer?

Cerruti: I'm so glad you're here. I receive so few outsiders. Who to trust? Who to trust? All the nerves but none of the flesh. End of our social. Why did you come here without an appointment? What do you want?

Nick: I want to find Yvette Malone.

Cerruti: Impossible. She's been kidnapped.

Nick: Kidnapped?

Cerutti: Yeah. Abducted, swept away, taken off, snatched, kidnapped.

Nick: By whom?

Cerruti: The kidnappers. Bad guys. Casper Jr. Where are you going?

[After much more, including the final revelation and Kegan breaking both of Cerruti's arms with a blackjack to get it.]

Nick: I want to find Yvette.

Cerruti (going into shock): Yvette Malone...was a professional actress named Jenny O'Brien, but I don't think she wants to see you today, Nick. She's the guest of a freshman anatomy class over at Kegan university medical school... and she's kind of tied up right now, if you get the picture. You get the picture, Nick? You get the picture? You get the picture, Nick?

Hanky Panky

Michael and Kate are left in a small plane with a pilot who has had an apparent heart attack.

Kate Hellman (Gilda Radner) "Do something!"
Michael Jordon (Gene Wilder) " I am doing something. I'm crashing an airplane!"

Paraphrasing since I haven't seen the film in 30 years.

Hugo Drax may be my favorite Bond villain. He has a couple of my favorite villain lines, anyway:

'Look after Mr. Bond. See that some harm comes to him.'

'Mr. Bond, you persist in defying my efforts to provide an amusing death for you.'

'James Bond. You appear with the tedious inevitability of an unloved season.'


Yes!

Gilligan's Island episode "And Then There Were None".

"Chop Suey, Dixie-Style!" (~2:00) - The Lady in Red

Just the idea of a menu item like Chop Suey Dixie-Style makes me chuckle.



I still remember it fondly. "Dixie Style" cooking was quite popular when this episode aired. Interestingly enough, today's chefs are often modifying more-or-less traditional Asian cuisine to reflect American tastes.

The best dialog sequence in years has to be the finale of HATEFUL 8:

Walton Goggins: AS my first and ONLY act as Sherrif of Red rocks I hereby sentence you to hang from the neck until you are a dead"

JACKSON; "tHAT'S A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT"

GOGGINS" ...Mary todd Lincoln.... that's nice touch"
SML: Yeah!

May have had this before but its just pitched right.

"...He was after a Hawken gun. 50 calibre or better. He settled for a 30...but...damn, it was a gen-u-ine Hawken...You couldn't go no better..."

And

"...he'll just run the second we step out of these trees."
"...Trick to it, walk out on this side of your horse..."
"...What if he sees our feet?"
"...Elk dont know how many feet a horse has..!!"

Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home

At film's end the crew is brought before the court for sentencing...

President - "Bring in the accused." (Spock joins the line-up)

President - "Captain Spock, you do not stand accused."

Spock - "Mister President, I stand with my shipmates."

President - "As you wish. The charges and specifications are...Conspiracy. Assault on Federation officers. Theft of Federation property. Namely the starship Enterprise. Sabotage of the USS Excelsior. Willful destruction of Federation property...specifically the aforementioned USS Enterprise. And finally..disobeying the direct order of the Starfleet commander. Admiral Kirk..how do you plead?"

Kirk - "On behalf of all of us, Mister President, I am authorized to plead guilty."

President - "So entered. Because of certain mitigating circumstances, all charges but one are summarily dismissed. The remaining charge, disobeying orders of a superior officer, is directed solely at Admiral Kirk. I'm sure the Admiral will recognize the necessity of keeping discipline in any chain of command?"

Kirk - "I do, sir."

President - "Admiral Kirk, it is the judgement of this council that you be reduced in rank to Captain. And as a consequence of your new rank you be given the duties in which you have continually demonstrated unswerving ability...the command of a starship. You and your crew have saved this planet from it's own short-sightedness and we are forever in your debt."

Applause all around.

Alan Felix: "What's the secret?"

Humphrey Bogart: "There's no secret, kid. Dames are simple. I never met one that didn't understand a slap in the mouth or a slug from a .45."

Alan Felix: "Yeah, 'cause you're Bogart. I could never hit Nancy. It's not that type of relationship."

Humphrey Bogart: "Relationship? Where'd you learn that word, from some Park Avenue shrink?"

Alan Felix: "I'm not like you. In Casablanca, when you lost Ingrid, weren't you crushed?"

Humphrey Bogart: "Nothing a little bourbon and soda wouldn't fix."
