Is there a line from a movie that really resonated with you but when you say it most people don't get the reference?
Mine is from an early 2000s film called Vanilla Sky.
“The sweet is never as sweet without the sour.”
No, just endless Simpsons references that fall on deaf ears.
You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is...never try.
"Kick his ass, Sea Bass!"
Aziz light!
(Fifth Element)
I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve
Excuse me while I stare at my big hairy (proud!) feet as I try to figure out whether or not you just insulted me.
ITT, people giving quotes but not saying from what movie
They asked for the quote, not the movie. :-D
I love to say, “Hello there!” Whether in game (on an mmorpg) or in person at a party and hold my breath, waiting in anticipation to see if anyone gets it.
General Kenobi!
YAY!!!
These are my go to quotes from Snatch and The Big Lebowski that I use whenever the occasion arises. Not everyone gets the reference. I also refer to my anxiety meds as "anti anxiety disco biscuits." I got that one from Shameless - my doctor got a kick out of that.
"What's happening with them sausages, Charlie?"
"In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again?"
"D'ya like dags?"
"You're out of your element!"
"This aggression will not stand, man."
"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"
"You can call me Susan if it makes you happy..."
I use it all the time
"Listen to the sounds of the machine" From Elephant's Dream, a short animated film.
I'm an engineer, and there's something almost spiritual about that line and its delivery. I think about it every time I'm debugging or trying to understand how a complex system works
Something tells me you would like the Love, Death, and Robots episode "The Very Pulse of the Machine".
I did!
And now I'm learning it's based off a short story. Gonna have to pick that up.
Serpentine!
What's this one from. My old roommate used to always say it when we played first person shooters and he was being shot at.
"No sir, I didn't like it"
-Mr. Horse
Do people really not remember Ren and Stimpy? Maybe younger folks but I assume that's most references that are older than them.
It's better than bad, it's good!
I feel like it was niche even when it was on. Lots of people know the big quotes like 'Stimpy! You eeediot! ' but dont know the more rare ones like 'Quick, man! Cling tenaciously to my buttocks! '
"Poooooooderrrrrred toooooaaaaaast maaaaaaaaaaaan!"
"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life."
