Here we are again with some of the best quotes from movies ever. As we said some months ago, when we published our first instalment, we are sure that you will think about lots of good movie quotes that you think we should have never forgotten. That´s what we want to propose you: Tell us which is your favourite one and which one(s) you think nobody can miss.
We hope you like them!!!
-"As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again!" Scarlett O´Hara (Vivien Leigh) is determined to survive and endure at any cost in Gone With The Wind.
-"I love the smell of napalm in the morning". Lieutenant Colonel William "Bill" Kilgore (Robert Duvall) expresses his love for the smell of napalm as he watches the devastatinng effects of this poisonous gas over Vietnam local population. After all, "it smells like victory".
-"A martini. Shaken, not stirred". First used by Sean Connery in Goldfinger , this catchphrase of British Secret Service agent James Bond is used in numerous films of the Bond saga.
-"Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you´re gonna get". Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) tries to convince the woman in the bench that life is full of surprises and that you can never be sure what will happen next. Unfortunately, the woman does not seem to be too interested.
-"I see dead people". Cole Sear ( Haley Joel Osment) tells Malcolm (Bruce willis) his secret in The Sixth Sense: he sees dead people, walking around like ordinary people, not knowing that they are dead.
-Houston, we have a problem. Apollo 13 astronaut Jack Swiggert (Tom Hanks) communicates that something is going dangerously wrong (an explosion in an oxygen tank) in their spaceship as they are aproaching the moon. The phrase has been used since then humorously to report any kind of problem.
-"You talking to me?" Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) says these popular words as he stares at the mirror. This sequence of Taxi Driver has become iconicand according to De Niro himself, he took it from Bruce Springsteen after listening to him at a concert.
-"E.T. phone home". The most famous of friendly aliens come to Earth was excited because he was able to communicate Elliott that he needed to build a device to "phone home" and let them know where he was.
-"I'm flying". Rose (Kate Winslett) says these words in perhaps the most famous scene in Titanic. In the beginning of the last day in the Titanic, Jack (L. DiCaprio) makes her stand on the railing of the ship, grabbing her arms and extending them out.
-"Hasta la vista, Baby!" This catchphrase was uttered by Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2: Judgement Day just before breaking into pieces the frozen T-1000 with a gunshot. The phrase is in Spanish in the original film, what created a problem for Spanish translators. They decided to solve it by using the equivalent farewell words in Japanese: "Sayonara, Baby".
That´s all for now! Hasta la vista, Babies!
One of my favourites films is " Pulp Fiction" of Quetin Tarantino, and everyone should watch it.
ReplyDeleteI have two favourite quotes, the first it's says by Marsellus Wallace when Butch ask him:
-What now?
and Marcellus says:
-What now? Let me tell you what now. I'm gonna call a couple of hard, pipe-hitting niggas to go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch.
And the other is of Mr Wolf when he says:
-Hi, I'm Wiston Wolf, I solve problems.
How nice to read your comment, Edu!!!

Amazing job! Congrats to the English department. I'll use them in my class. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeletegood job, I think that is a good form to learn english. I enjoyed TITANIC. thank you teachers!
ReplyDeleteThe one I like the most is "Hasta la vista, baby". But my favourite quote of all history of cinema is "Hail to the king, baby", from the movie "Army of darkness".
ReplyDeleteHere is the link to the scene where the main character says the quote:

PD: the film is about a man who travels to the middle age, and at the end of the movie he comes back to the present (the 70's).
I enjoyed my last english watching these parts of some films. All of them are pretty interesting, but for me the best are "E.T." and "Titanic".
ReplyDeletebtw, good blog to learn english.
I could see all scenes and I think that it is a good form to know a little more about this language. I like so much the sentence that said: life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you´re gonna get, because in my opinion this is true.

ReplyDeleteI´ve really enjoyed those best movie quotes, there are some mythical phrases like the ones in Terminator, Forrest Gump, E.T. or James Bond, and all the films are also masterpieces of cinema, the one I like most is "You talking to me?" it´s so funny and epic...
You´re doing nice job Manuel, this blog is too good, keep making it even better though it´s almost perfect now
I think that the best scene above all is the one by Arnold Schwarzenegger because in the original film he speaks in spanish . He says " hasta la vista, baby".
ReplyDeleteAnd I think that is the best film of Terminator.
And other scene of a film is "The sixth sense" when the kid says to boy that:" I see dead people".
I like this blog is very funny
ReplyDeleteThis blog is very interesting, I don't like only this section, I also like the other... It's enjoyable!!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite films is It from Stephen King it is about a devil clown that kills people with their own fears. An quote from that film is when the litle guy gets close to a drain and the clown says him "They float,all of them float and whem you come down with me you´ll also float"
ReplyDeleteThe Titanic video is very interesting and very romantic. It´s our favourite film because is a real story and we cry saw it, we love it.
ReplyDeleteWe also think so! Titanic is the best film, is very romantic.
