Men love movies, men love to quote movies, on some cases men quote them wrong. We of course are just as guilty at abusing movie lines as the next but we recognize it and are attempting to remedy it, so enters this blog entry. If you’re quoting any of these lines on a daily basis, you need to stop… now!
20. Hakuna Matata. (The Lion King) – Often sung and in reply to something looking for a response of concern. Such as “what are you going to do if you can’t pay your rent?”, “Hakuna Matata.” This of course is usually pronounced horribly wrong and in the realm of “Hakuta Mayana.” Either way, stop doing it.
19. Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates…(Forrest Gump) - No, you don’t sound like Tom Hanks when you do it. This also goes for Run Forrest, Run. That needs to stop as well.
18. You can’t handle the truth. (A Few Good Men) – You can’t handle you’re doing a horrible Nicholson impersonation and it needs a code red. (Also, the author admits MAJOR fail by listing it was Cruise who said that line… it was Nicholson and I will hand in my MAN CARD for one whole day… thanks for pointing it out)
17. (I’ll) make him an offer he can’t refuse. (The Godfather) – If you notice, you’re most-likely spitting all over yourself when you do this correctly. Never should that much saliva be expelled when attempting to look cool.
16. I’ll be back. (The Terminator) – Not if you’re still going to be doing your shitty Arnold Schwarzenegger impression. We are begging you to stop this one right now…. wait… NOW!
15. You complete me. (Jerry Maguire) – You understand that 9 out or 10 times you’re quoting this to a dude… right?
14. E.T., phone home. (E.T.) – The only time a friend should be pointing a finger at you is during a police line up or asking you to help him expel gas.
13. May the force be with you. (Star Wars) – Lucas is killing my childhood and you’re trying to kill my trip to the kitchen to get another beer? Stop wishing Jedi good fortune on me every time I leave the room.
12. Yeah, baby! (Austin Powers) – Oh I get it, I just said a double entendre and you decided to point it out via a bad impersonation and a little dance. Fail!
11. Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn. (Gone with the Wind) – What makes me think you’ve never even seen this movie. New rule, not in your DVD collection, no quoting!
10. We don’t need no stinking badges. (Treasure of Sierra Madre) – Guess what smarts, you’re quoting it wrong. It’s actually: Badges? We ain’t got no badges. We don’t need no badges. I don’t have to show you any stinking badges. Gee, what’s wrong? Not so much fun to quote anymore? Good… stop!
9. Show me the money. (Jerry Maguire) – Your career is probably going downhill just as Cuba Gooding Jr if you feel the need to use this enough. BTW, if you use it while laying your cards down during a poker game, that’s a stabbing.
8. Go ahead, make my day. (Sudden Impact) - Lemme guess, you’re squinting your eyes and making a gun with your fingers, aren’t you. You should be ashamed of yourself.
7. Bond, James Bond. (James Bond films) - Double fail if you’re doing it as any other Bond but Sean Connery.
6. Hasta la vista, baby. (T2) – Do you feel smart by speaking a foreign language. Well, you’re not.
5. Are you talking to me? (Taxi Driver) – Feel free to spend an entire day quoting this by yourself in front of a mirror, other than that… leave us out of it.
4. There’s no place like home. (The Wizard of Oz) – Then go, don’t let the door hit you in your red ruby slippers.
3. Say hello to my little friend (Scarface) - If you whip anything out we are cutting it off.
2. Excuse me while I whip this out (Blazing Saddles) - Same thing applies.
1. Anything Monty Python – You’re stepping on most men’s religion. Leave these movies alone.
