Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
Pretty neat, but "May the Force be with you" is NOT more popular then "Luke, I am your father."
|
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
Actually the quote should be "No, I am your father", right?
Edit: yes, I checked it. Most people think it's "Luke, I'm your father", but it's "No, I'm you're father":p And that was cool to read. Only knew about 7 quotes though. :( |
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
pretty cool idea, some of the quotes that are accompanied with the movies are all the most popular within the movie.
|
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
That list is all over the place, but I guess it'll pass.
For one, who still quotes Casablanca. Honestly. |

Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
This isn't "The Quotes Most Used By the Mass Populace," but the greatest movie quotes of all time. Just because you hear more people quoting The Matrix more often doesn't change the fact that people still know quotes from Casablanca (even without knowing they're from Casablanca) 60 years after the movie's release.
/me shrugs and walks away |

Quote:
2. It doesn't say they stay a part of our cultural vocabulary. And besides, the simple fact that you have heard the quotes, recognize the quotes, and can say what movie they came from means that they are part of the cultural vocabulary. And I quoth myself, "Just because you hear more people quoting The Matrix more often doesn't change the fact that people still know quotes from Casablanca (even without knowing they're from Casablanca) 60 years after the movie's release." /me shrugs and walks away |
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
Quote:
Not everybody can say they recognize every single one of those quotes and how they were used. I can't. I haven't even seen Casablanca. Who's to say my kids will, for sure? |
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
Quote:
And I'm sure lots of folks do because it is still used in TV and movies. Not as often, but its around. And what exactly would people quote from the Matrix? Its like saying people quoting, "I'm Rick James, bitch" should be on the list. Most things should stand the test of time, and not just because they are current pop culture fads. And this was a list compiled by film experts not average moviegoers as I'm sure the list would be different. Well I know it would be difference cause I saw one compiled by movie goers.. maybe I should find one... |

Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
The AFI list is 100% crap for one reason... they left out the greatest movie quote of all time:
"I came here to do two things: Chew gum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubble gum." Rowdy Roddy Piper in They Live |
Re: AFI's 100 Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time
Dyne, I'll concede your point if you can prove to me that people are going to remember any lines from The Matrix 60 years from now. Being as what nearly everybody remembers from the movie is a shot of Neo falling backwards while the camera revolves around him rather than any particular line, I find that somewhat unlikely. The most memorable line of the movie is, "Whoa..." for crying out loud. You think people are going to be quoting that to sound cool a few decades from now?
Besides, the sequels have sort of tainted The Matrix in the pop consciousness. Anyhow, I'm glad to see that Inigo Montoya's immortal three lines were at least nominated. But I'm a little confused by the Pulp Fiction quotes. To be honest, I don't remember those. The lines I remember are, "Ever had your ass beaten to a soundtrack?" and "Zed's dead, baby." Hell, I remember Samuel L. Jackson describing his wallet better than those two quotes. |
