[Film] Film or TV lines you use in your everyday lives

[Home and Away]

What are some quotes from films or TV that you use in your daily life? I tend to use quite a few without even thinking about it. Maybe some that are not the obvious ones like "Scorchio", "I'll be back", etc.

I'll start:

When having a whole cake with family or friends (usually birthdays) I tend to say "Make sure that everybody sees the cake before we cut it". -Hyman Roth, Godfather II (1974)

When telling someone to drive faster I often say "Faster! Evinrude, Faster!" -The Rescuers (1977)

“Just put that anywhere, pal!”

A family joke when we hear a loud clatter or crash in a kitchen, cafe or restaurant. Happens surprisingly a lot. Three of us find it amusing .

From Groundhog Day.

 

[OzMike]

'Time to die', when a power tool packs up, or a hand tool breaks.
From original, not messed with, Blade Runner.

 

[Mellotron]

Basically the entirety of I'm Alan Partridge Series 1 and 2, and The Office.

Like a huge number of men my age.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

If someone's half-baked plans go awry:

"Is this a way to run a f***ing ballroom?"

From Top Rank by Derek and Clive (Live).

 

[Jack Straw]

"I didn't get where I am today by using lines from film or tv!"

 

[Deadly Danson]

"By all means move at a glacial pace, you know how that thrills me."
Sometimes applies to Adingra tracking back.

When someone is rambling on about something only they care about I usually let them go on for about a minute or so, pretending I'm really interested not saying a word,my go to stfu line is John has a long moustache! Usually the person is so involved with their own monologue they just ramble on but I feel comforted knowing I at least tried to get a fkn word in.

Will often use:

- "Funny how? Funny like a clown? I amuse you?" (if someone ever says anything like you're funny to me. One of the best scenes from any movie of course, Goodfellas). Some people occasionally get it.

- Will often say "We're in the pipe, 5 by 5" when setting off on a journey or after getting on a bus. Anyone I'm with with always say wha? though. (Aliens, of course).

- I'll always ask if "Cream of Sum Yung Gai" is on the menu at any Works meal out if it's any type of oriental food. (Wayne's World).

- "cool beans" in it's various formats, from Hot Rod, often gets a use too.

All for my own amusement, often said under my breath.

Tom Cruise in Risky Business.

 

[Flounce]

“Just doing it Sybil”

If I am being hassled about something by the other half


”I know nothing” (said in my best Spanish accent)

If I don’t want to talk about something. Often gets a strange look unless the person is familiar with Fawlty Towers

 

[Fignon's Ponytail]

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

 

[Clive Walker]

Great Scott!

 

[Home and Away]

Driving fast on the motorway I often say stuff like "Stay on target!", "Almost there...!" or "ready to jump to lightspeed!" obviously from the Original Star Wars.

 

[Flounce]

Not from a film or tv but I tend to come out with

”Not for me Clive”

If someone is asking me about something I’m not keen on.
It often gets a quizzical look from the person I’m responding to
