Movie Buff Me: First 20 Favorite Movie Lines!

I’m a movie buff. But, of course, there are specific movie genres that I like. A don’t dig pure DRAMA or pure ACTION. And I don’t like real stories. By real, I mean real. Those things that happen in real life, that’s a no-no. Let’s put it this way, things in movies that look like normal is not my type. What I want to say is, I’m into FANTASY, SCI-FI, HORROR, 3D ANIMATION, COMEDY, COMEDY-ROMANCE, and, of course, ANIME. I hope I’m clear.

But, I guess there are always exceptions to the rule. I mean, comedy is normal and can be a real thing. In fact, it happens around me all the time. I can even make myself laugh without trying to. That’s comedy. But you can’t blame me. Everyone needs a laugh these days. With all the problems human race is facing. They are present from global economic recession, worldwide terrorism, oil price hike, crime rate rise, disasters like hurricanes, storms, earthquakes, tsunamis and wildfires, graft and corruption, impeachment trial, favorite TV network ratings, Taylor Swift’s upcoming album, to “how do I lose fats?”.

And because I LOOOOVE movies, I will share to you lines (yeah, LINES) that took my breath away the moment I heard it. Nah, taking my breath away is, uhm, quite exaggerated. Maybe “caught my attention” might fit. Yes, I’m gonna share to you lines that caught my attention in the movies I watched (and luckily, remembered). They are, of course, randomly selected, as they only randomly pop out in my mind. And I might, as well, add that these lines didn’t just catch my attention because of its riddled meaning, but on how the actor/actress who said it said it.

And I would also like to point out that this post will not include ANY Harry Potter movie quotes as I treat Harry Potter my personal favorites having watched them over and over and over and over and over again. So, you really can’t blame me if I memorized quite a lot lines from hp movies to actually make a special post for them. Yeah, right. I’ll just make another post just for Harry Potter. *<sniff>* I’m missing them again.

And another note, these lines are taken from foreign movies. This means local movies favorite lines (my favorite lines) aren’t here yet. There will be, again, special post for them. Understood? Understood. Oh my! I remember someone.

Here they are in no particular order:

1. “Call me crazy, ONE MORE TIME!”

Mary from the movie “Hancock”

**When Hancock finally knew of his past, and Mary is actually her super wife, they began to word-fight, and then wrestle. With wrestle, I mean, in a super way. Like flying across mountains, cities, destroying everything along the way. And just after a brutal landing, Hancock innocently called her crazy.

2. “This is a pen!”

Percy from the movie “Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Lightning Thief”

**Ooh. I totally remember this. Percy finally realizing who he really was now faces death in front of one of Hades’ Furies. And his teacher, Mr. Brummer (who is actually Chiron in a very convincing disguise) gave him a pen and told him he’ll need it. And it’s true. The pen was actually the “Riptide”, english name for "Anaklusmos". And Riptide’s a sword, by the way. Percy just needs to uncap it, that’s all. And according to the book, The Riptide once belonged to Hercules himself, son of the mighty Zeus. How it came to Chiron’s possession, I really don’t know. What I know is, Chiron was the one who tutored Hercules during his time. And I would like to extend my deepest annoyance to the makers of the Percy Jackson movie. Where’s the second part? I mean Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Sea of Monsters?

3. “It’s my job not to be.”

Hal Jordan from the movie “Green Lantern”

**Hal Jordan is actually the Green Lantern. And one of the main requirements to actually be one is to forget of the so-called FEAR. This, in my opinion and Hal’s, as well, is not an easy thing to do. He said this line when his young nephew asked him if he felt afraid during the ejection from the falling aircraft. And Hal said this.

4. “I see dead people.”

Cole from the movie “The Sixth Sense”

**I remember the line, all right. But I can’t remember what part of the movie Cole said it. Duh, I watched the movie, like, million years ago.

5. “My precious.”

Gollum from the movie “The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers”

Of course, I remember this. And Gollum, too. Actually, Gollum says the line over and over again during the entire movie. And with the other Lord of the Ring movies, too. He is actually referring to the ‘Lord of the Rings’. You will relate to him when you actually get your hands on the ring. It’ll take everything sane in you. Mark my words! Take it from me, I… uhm. Actually, I haven’t tried it yet. So, forget what I just said.

6. “I’m the king of the world!”

Jack from the movie “Titanic”

**What I remember is Jack and Rose were at the front tip of the gargantuan boat and having the time of their lives. And Jack was actually yelling this line while stretching his hands.

7. “Good job.”

Hancock from the movie “Hancock”

These two words are what Ray wanted Hancock to say to all the people who try to do good. I remember Ray had had a very hard time making Hancock say this. But on his heroic act on a bank robbery (in a suit he promised not to wear) just after the chief of police actually asked him to come out of the jail to help them, he said this line to almost everyone on the scene. Quite exaj? I agree. But, really, good job, Hancock. Anger managed.

8. “Trying doesn’t matter when you always fail.”

James Reid from the movie “Green Hornet”

**James Reid is Britt Reid’s father. And Britt Reid is the Green Hornet himself. But this line was delivered when Britt was just a superhero fanatic kid. Britt just got thrown out of the school because of a physical involvement in a brawl in their school. And James wasn't at all happy about it. He kinda scolded him, took the kid’s superhero action figure, actually disfigured it by forcibly taking its head, and threw the head in a bin. Poor Britt. He was really just helping a girl being bullied. Oh, life is just so unfair.

9. “Honey, you complete me!”

Secretary from the movie “Furry Vengeance”

**I really couldn’t understand why the secretary said it. So, I’m not gonna tell you no more.

10. “Don’t worry about me. I’ll be home in no time.”

Aunt Jackie from the movie “Alvin and the Chipmunks: the Squeakquel

**After rolling down in a wheelchair from a upper floor all the way down to the lower floor connected by an escalator, Aunt Jackie managed to say these words. How brave of her. But the ambulance guy didn’t think Aunt Jackie will be home in no time. And I think, too. I think It’ll take a lot of time before she could go home.

11. “Life is a race!”

Dr. Virus from the movie “Three Idiots”

**Famous line from the infamous Dr. Virus. I can’t remember exactly his full name, ‘coz it’s Indian. He said this line to a crowd of first years which includes Rancho. He brought a bird with him, knocked off a box filled with rejected applications, and showed the innocent and delicate, young freshmen of one of the greatest inventions man have ever seen: An Astronaut Pen. You see, ordinary pen don’t work on space. So, scientists spent years and a lot of money developing this pen. So astronauts could actually write while in space. But Rancho asked, why couldn’t they just use pencils? So true.

12. “Sorry is not in my dictionary. If you want to hear it, change your name to ‘Sorry’. Then, I’ll call you ‘Sorry’.

Kyungjin from the movie “Windstruck”

**This movie is actually Korean. So, I got the line from a subtitle. But, of course, subtitles are meant to translate what the actual lines mean. May it be Spanish, Japanese, Korean, gibberish, and even Pikachu’s “Pika, pikapi. Pika Pikachu, pika pikapi”. Unless, of course, you buy a pirated movie where 'sh*t' is subbed as ‘dog’s feces’. And 'let’s go' is subbed ‘come away’. Now, that’s totally a no-no. Well, Myungwoo was just asking Kyungjin to just say sorry because she forcibly and brutally took him to the police headquarters (twice!) to put him in jail for a misinterpreted act of heroism Myungwoo did. But as arrogant as she is, well, uhm, she said this line.

13. “Of course.”

Ha-Young from the movie “100 Days with Mr. Arrogant”

**Honestly one of the best Korean movies ever produced. So the leading guy in the movie (aka Mr. Arrogant) tried to teach Ha-Young the right way of speaking English. As far as I remember, the guy even proposed to be his private tutor so they could have their private lessons in the girl’s room. And the guy asked the girl, “Are you stupid?” (something like that) in English, and the only thing the girl could come up with is this line. Epic!

14. “Too freaky?”

Edward from the movie “Vampires Suck”

**This is one heck of a movie, this is. A parody to be exact. A parody of the hit movies 'Twilight' and 'New Moon'. Well, Edward was trying to get over Becca by watching this black and white movie featuring a human, uhm, mosquito while eating gigantic cup of, uhm, ice cream? I’m not really sure what that stuff was. A girl entered the room and said she had a vision of Becca. You know ESP things. Where you can actually see things in your mind, and on movie standards, they are quite true. But Edward said she’s totally, like totally, over Becca and finally got himself someone that actually meets his level. And then, a Lady Gaga look-alike (I really don’t think they look alike) showed up and that’s when Edward said this line.

15. “With great power, comes great responsibility.”

Uncle Ben from the movie “Spiderman”

**Who would not remember this line? I mean, WHOOOO? Uncle Ben was dying when he said this. He was shot by a guy who Toby ignored even when he got the chance of capturing it. Whoa, it’s like Pokémon. Capture? No? I mean, capture? Really. You see, Spiderman (a while ago, he was “The Human Spider”) entered this enter-and-you’ll-not-go-out-alive wrestling match that promised, uhm, I think $3,000 to those who could manage to defeat the reigning champ. But, of course, he’s the Human Spider, I mean, Spiderman, he won! But that good for nothing guy gave him $100. Only! Where’s justice, man? Incidentally, the guy who shot his Uncle Ben robbed that GFN guy and took all the money Spidey should have. And for justice to be served, the Human Spider just let the culprit go away. If he just did capture the guy, Uncle Ben would have been alive and couldn’t have said this line upon the face of death. *<sniff>*. Lesson learned, Spidey.

16. “I don’t deal in chance.”

The Red Queen from the Movie “Resident Evil”

**The Red Queen is actually an AI (artificial intelligence) of a huge underground laboratory called The Hive in Raccoon City. Funny thing is, The Red Queen is a little girl with no less than 10 years old. When the T-virus was exposed to the lab, she (the AI) closed every possible way to get out of The Hive killing everyone in it. The T-Virus, being able to become air borne, and inhaled by the pips in the lab, reanimated their bodies making them *<RAWR>*, LIVING DEAD! The AI said this particular line when Alice mentioned something about an Anti-Virus that could cure one of her infected companions when they were trapped inside a password-protected room. But according to The Red Queen, Alice must kill her first before she gave the password. And she said, and I quote, “it’s a risk I cannot take.”

16. “To infinity and beyond!”

Buzz Lightyear from the movie “Toy Story”

**This is epic, man. Who would forget Buzz Lightyear? When this guy, uhm, toy, whatever, came into Andy’s room, he sure believed he was a Space Ranger sent from intergalactic headquarters to defeat the evil dominion of Zurg. Well, Woody sure wasn’t impress by this. And he keeps on telling Buzz that he is just a toy. T-O-Y, toy! But, of course, Buzz didn’t listen much to Woody and actually told him that he could fly using his built-in wing. And before he took off, he said this line. Well, I agree with Woody, it wasn’t flying. It was falling with style. There you go, Space Ranger Buzz.

17. “Oh, it’s an equation.”

Troy Bolton from the Movie “High School Musical”

**Wildcats gonna have their championship match later. Before they went to the gym, the girls showed them a black board full of mathematical equations. That’s when Troy said this line. Well, that’s not it, Troy. Gabriella flipped the board backwards and showed them what they truly mean; a well lettered “Good Luck Wildcats!”

18. “I’m not afraid anymore!”

Kevin from the movie “Home Alone”

**This is one of the first movies I’ve got the wildest opportunity to watch over and over again. Who can blame me? The movie sure is full of comedy in it. Not to mention stupid villains who make the movie funnier. Funnier, with their careless stunts and successful schemes (say successful in the most sarcastic way). Now, Kevin here sure is brave when he delivered the line. He was actually referring to an old guy who sweeps the snow on the road. Well, this guy turned out to be his hero when worse came to worst. Thanks, old friend.

19. “It is impossible.”

Edward from the movie “Daybreakers”

**One of the creepiest movies I watched. I mean, the whole world is run by vampires. And instead of global economic crises, their global problem is the fast declination of human blood supply. Yeah, there are still humans on the run. And they are, in turn, hunted and farmed by the government of blood suckers. Blood deprivation was a national threat. Vampires, who do not have the means to get blood of their own, fed on themselves. And according to the movie, they could poison their own bodies. Thus the subsiders were born; an ugly evolution of vampires. Edward said this line when a guy (a vampire like himself before) took his hand, rested it on his chest, and allowed Edward to feel the heartbeat in it. The thing was, there was no heartbeat. In fact, it hadn’t beaten for 9 years. Now, that’s impossible.

20. “Go f*ck yourself.”

Logan of X-men: First Class”

This is so typical of Logan. Erik and Charles (Magneto and Professor X in their tween days) found him in a bar using the old version of the Cerebro. They were, uhm, recruiting mutants like them around the globe to join their common cause. And sadly, Logan refused with this line. This is some kind of a mystery to me. While Erik and Charles were young in the movie, Logan was still the same Logan in X-men 1 to 3. Go figures.

Well, that’s 20 of them. 20 lines that are luckily stuck in my mind even after all these years. There are more, of course. I’m just waiting for them to cross my mind. Until then.
