"You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" - Charlie Croker, The Italian Job
Added by GeekOverture
|
From the movie that made Minis even cooler, The Italian Job left the audience in suspense as the bus teeters on a cliff. As Croker suggests he has an idea, the camera zooms out and the credits roll. One of the funniest bits from the movie was blowing up a van as they test the explosives.

"I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse." Don Vito Corleone, The Godfather
Added by GeekOverture
|
And the number 1 quote is of course the Godfather starring the late great Marlon Brando. This iconic film still remains the most celebrated mobster movie despite many attempts to better it. Laurence Olivier was actually the first choice to play the role. Who knows how he would have compared to Brando's. For impression tips, try saying it with your mouth full of sweets.

"May the Force be with you" - Han Solo, Star Wars
Added by GeekOverture
|
Remember when Star Wars was good? We have to go back to when Harrison Ford was waving the light saber to defeat the dark side. Just as Luke sets off to attack the Death Star battle station, Han wishes him well. The line has achieved cult status among geeks around the world.

"I'll be back." The Terminator, The Terminator
Added by GeekOverture
|
The film secured Schwarzenegger as a house hold name. It was originally scripted as "I'll come back", but it doesn't have the same ring nor menacing tone to it does it?

Tom Hanks plays the much loved character Forrest Gump. At the beginning of the film, Forrest is sat on a bench talking to a stranger, comparing like to confectionary; a modern day Confucius if you will. He then proceeds to take the audience on a journey through his life story.

"You can't handle the truth!" - Col. Nathan R. Jessep, A Few Good Men
Added by GeekOverture
|
Jack Nicholson at his best. The intense dialogue between Kaffee and Jessep only gets more heated when the latter says the infamous line. How many times have you used it when someone asks for the truth?

"E.T. phone home." - E.T, E.T the Extra-Terrestrial
Added by GeekOverture
|
The shrivelled but yet cuddly creature found the hearts of many in the 90's. It had kids up and down the country putting their hoods up and jumping off ramps in an attempt to fly. As he points with his gangly finger, he signifies his desire to make a long distantance call. How much do you think it would cost for him? It's certainly not a free call by any means.

"Show me the money!" Jerry Maguire
Added by GeekOverture
|
While there are many quotes to choose from like "Help me to help you" and the females' favourite "You had me at hello", this is the best. Jerry tries to keep his star athlete Rod but must shout his family motto.

"Squirrel" - Dug, Up
Added by GeekOverture
|
In at number 10 it's a relatively new film. Disney's Up was a funny yet heart breaking tale where Carl's sidekick Dug was introduced to the world. Not since errr... Lassy has there been a dog that everyone wished they owned. Whenever a dog quickly turns its head, I now imagine them saying "Squirrel!"
