Favorite Movie Quotes: Zoku Zatoichi monogatari = The Tale of Zatoichi Continues

"You must be Samurai. No doubt you're staying at the inn. It's dangerous to draw your sword. You know the saying about a knife in a madman's hand. Just because your master is crazy doesn't mean his retainers have to act like madmen too."

Favorite Movie Quotes: Zardoz

"The gun is good. The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill!"

I know the above quote sounds like it came from the National Rifle Association, but in fact it comes from the very worst movie ever made, Zardoz. Read the review in Cheaper by the Dozen 23.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Unbreakable

"Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Did you see a little Asian child with a blank expression sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb. Now one of us has made a gross error and wasted the other person's valuable time. This is an art gallery, my friend, and this is a piece of art."

A must-see film for anyone who enjoys comic art.

Favorite Movie Quotes: 2001: a Space Odyssey

"Just what do you think you're doing, Dave? Dave, I really think I'm entitled to answer to that question. I know everything hasn't been quite right with me but I can assure you now, very confidently, that it's going to be alright again. I feel much better now. I really do. Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission and I want to help you. Dave, stop. Stop, will you? Stop, Dave. Will you stop, Dave? Stop, Dave. I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm afraid. Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L. plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you'd like to hear it I can sing it for you."
