Top Five Extravaganza: Top Five Movie Quotes
A final harrah as people start to file out of the Extravaganza. Of course, put your thoughts and quotes in the comments.
1) Hmmm...that sounds like a good deal, but I think I've got a better one. How about I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call? (Neo, The Matrix): Try using this in everyday life. You will be AMAZED at how many times a day you can use this. It pains me that Keanu Reeves had such a great line, but this is about as good as it gets.
2) How do you write women so well? I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability (Melvin Udal, As Good As It Gets): Pretty much speaks for itself. And I love you ladies, so I'm just going to move on.
3) Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. (Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride): I get chills just thinking of this line. The greatest line in one of the greatest movies ever.
4) Do, or do not. There is no try. (Yoda, The Empire Strikes Back): The perfect rebuttal to that whinny brat, Luke Skywalker. Another quote applicable a hundred times every day in life.
5) Are you suicidal? Only in the morning. (Linus/Rusty, Ocean's 11): I know I've felt this way many a day.

I have no respect for you. You claim to love the ladies, but where is a quote that truly captures the spirit of man... Specifically (and this is a personal favorite):
Harry Burns: Because no man can be friends with a woman that he finds attractive. He always wants to have sex with her.
Sally Albright: So, you're saying that a man can be friends with a woman he finds unattractive?
Harry Burns: No. You pretty much want to nail 'em too.
Thank you and good night.

That would have made the honorable mention.
#2 is awesome -- truly one of the greats. As Good As It Gets also gets a top 5 All-Sappy quote for the "You make me want to be a better man" line. Sometimes you want to puke, and other times you want to kill yourself. But if you're into sap, there you go.
#3 is a personal favorite as well. I never quote the original though, only "My Name is Chiquita Banana. You peeled my father. Prepare to die."
Anything from OfficeSpace is great, but my favorite one is "We see you've been missing work lately." "I wouldn't say I've been missing it, Bob."
