tigeraid Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Well, it was an 80s action movie in spirit
Corey_Lazarus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 So were Hard Target and Universal Soldier, but they're 90's action flicks (though, for my money, I'd put Universal Soldier up against the majority of 80's action flicks, even Ahnuld ones). Why don't we all just agree to throw the entirety of Ghostbusters into this? The whole movie is fantastic. Stantz: "Hey, where do these stairs go?" Venkman: "((looks at the stairs)) They go up." -- Venkman: "And..." **Pulls the tablecloth off and smashes everything that was on the table but the vase of flowers.** Venkman: "...the FLOWERS are STILL standing!"
starvenger Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Why don't we all just agree to throw the entirety of Ghostbusters into this? The whole movie is fantastic. There's just so many great movie quotes and moments from the 80's, aren't there? "That's nawt a knife. THIS is a knife" Till all are one.
Black Lushus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 LOLziez! Autobots can't fly, sillies! well except for the first few episodes and then they suddenly forgot how to. thanks for that, btw, starvenger! "I'm gonna be there, Bender...I'm gonna knock your dick in the dirt!" "HAKA DAKA! ALRIGHT!"
Guest Coffey Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 "Get away from her you bitch!" - Aliens "When this thing hits 88 miles per hour..." - Back to the Future. "Pain." - Rocky 3 Anything from Bloodsport. Total classic, cheesy 80's action movie.
cabbageboy Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 I can't believe no one has mentioned this one: "My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father. Prepare to die." Here's an Arnold classic moment from the Running Man: "Hey Killian! This was Sub Zero....now he's just plain zero!" It's such a dumbshit line but it's hilarious and awesome. Obviously there's "I'll be back" from Terminator and a bunch of other Arnold movies. I was trying to think of an 80s defining moment from Top Secret, but there's about 10,000 things that come to mind and I can't narrow it down. By the way, wasn't Robocop 2 from 1990?
starvenger Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 LOLziez! Autobots can't fly, sillies! well except for the first few episodes and then they suddenly forgot how to. thanks for that, btw, starvenger! I aim to please. By the way, wasn't Robocop 2 from 1990? I hear Frank Miller loves it when you tell him that Robocop 2 was way better than Sin City...
Black Lushus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Here's an Arnold classic moment from the Running Man: "Hey Killian! This was Sub Zero....now he's just plain zero!" It's such a dumbshit line but it's hilarious and awesome. "Because there's nothing funny about a dickless moron with a battery up his ass" "where's Buzz Saw?" "He had to split" "I choose Ben Richards...he's one meaaaan motherfucker!"
Black Lushus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 I hear Frank Miller loves it when you tell him that Robocop 2 was way better than Sin City... explain this one to me.
starvenger Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 I hear Frank Miller loves it when you tell him that Robocop 2 was way better than Sin City... explain this one to me. Subtle/near obscure joke there. Miller wrote the screenplay to Robocop 2, and of course wrote and drew the Sin City comic. I'm sure he'd like to forget that he had anything to do with the former...
Black Lushus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 you know...Robocop 2 wasn't HORRIBLE or anything, it just didn't match the first one...come on, Robo teaching morals to the kids was brilliant! Now Robocop 3, yeah what a shitty way to end a saga.
pochorenella Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 If I'm not mistaken Robocop 3 was also written by Frank Miller. And yes, I'm also one of the few who also liked Robocop 2. But Lushus is right, nothing could match the first Robocop.
Dangerous A Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 I loved Robocop 2. Fuck all who don't.
Guest wildpegasus Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 The Ghostbusters cartoon was extreamly quotable too. Some fav movie moments. In Commando when Arnold and the girl run the car into the telephone pole. Over the Top -- "It's time to go to work" Buddy who would intimidate everyone by eating and drinking everything Scott Norton! Terry Funk taking an unbelievable bump through a door courtesy of Stallone. You can even see where Funk's body went through afterwards The first armwrestle of the movie -- It was so similar to my days in school Stallone's pipes and physique being shown off anywhere Stallone driving his truck through his father in law's million? dollar home so he could get his son back The two music videos And Stallone explaining how he turns into a truck when he turns his hat backwards. I myself do this all the time. Stallone selling his truck and betting all his money in the armwrestling tournament with the odds incredibly stacked up again against him is perhaps my fav movie moment ever. The visual of Stallone with his only possesion -- a bag full of money -- walking up to the betting area to place his whole life on the line in perhaps the manliest sport of all is, has been and forever will be an inspiration to me. Man, I love this movie. Anything I ever wanted to be in life is epotomised here. Stallone is more man the William Shatner himself.
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Rocky IV's training sequence - contrasting Rockys with Dragos. Fedor does similar stuff to Rocky, but he NEEDS to climb up a mountain and be chased by a car in the snow and train in a barn.
Yuna_Firerose Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 "My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father. Prepare to die." o.0;;; Why is this film so popular?! As for best 80s movie moments.... Anything from Beetlejuice. The finale of Little Shop of Horrors.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted April 28, 2006 Report Posted April 28, 2006 Wholesale carnage at the beginning of Transformers (Optimus, Rawhide, Ratchet, Wheeljack among others). I was 10 and loved the Transformers. Messed me up for a while. Jimmy Chitwood hitting the jumper from the top of the key to win the state title in Hoosiers. Ash J. Williams sawing his arm off (I'm a sucker for the Evil Dead series).
BruiserKC Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 The scene in Porky's where they go on the beaver shoot...including where Balbricker grabs Tommy Turner's schlong and then the scene where the men in the principal's office are losing it. Coach Barkett: Mr. Carter, I think I have a way out of this. We, uh, call the police, and we have 'em send over one of their sketch artists. And Miss Balbricker can give a description. We can put up "Wanted" posters all over school..."Have you seen this prick? Report immediately to Beulah Balbricker. Do not attempt to apprehend this prick, as it is armed and dangerous. It was last seen hanging out in the girls' locker room at Angel Beach High School."
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 From 'The Running Man': Richards: I'll be back! Killian: Only in a rerun... ----- From 'Lethal Weapon 2', as the South African is shooting Gibson and Glover has his gun pointed at him: Rudd(while pulling out his credentials): Diplomatic immunity! *Murtaugh puts a bullett in his head* Murtaugh: It's just been revoked. ----- In 'Coming To America' where the two guys at the basketball game start bowing to Prince Akeem and the girl asks who they are. His reply, "Oh just a couple of men I met in the bathroom", is priceless. ----- The opening musical montage of 'Rocky 3' with "Eye Of The Tiger" playing. Great contrast between Clubber training and Rocky living it up.

His reply, "Oh just a couple of men I met in the bathroom", is priceless. ----- "The royal penis is clean." Also...from Planes Trains and Automobiles after Steve Martin and John Candy wake up together in the hotel bed. Neal: Del... Why did you kiss my ear? Del: Why are you holding my hand? Neal: [frowns] Where's your other hand? Del: Between two pillows... Neal: Those aren't pillows!
Black Lushus Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 Neal: you can start by wiping that fucking grin off your rosey fucking face. Then you can get me a fucking autombile, a fucking volvo, a fucking datsun, four fucking wheels. Car Rental Agent: I really don't care for the way you're speaking to me. Neal: And I really don't care for the way your company left me in the middle of fucking nowhere with fucking keys to a fucking car that isn't fucking there. And I really didn't care to fucking walk down a fucking highway and across a fucking runway to get back here to have you smile at my fucking face. I want a fucking car RIGHT FUCKING NOW! Car Rental Agent: May I see your rental agreement. Neal: I threw it away. Car Rental Agent: Oh boy. Neal: Oh boy what? Car Rental Agent: You're fucked!
Man Who Sold The World Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 "Where are your hands?" "Between two soft pillows." "Those aren't pillows!" - Planes, Trains, Automobiles "_Nice Fuckin' Model_!" - Beetlejuice "Why are you shooting us? We're just friends of Bernie's." "I hate... Bernie's friends!" The awesomeness that is Weekend At Bernies. "Last night, when she was sandwhiched between the two Finnish dwarves and the Maori tribesman, I thought; This is a girl I could marry." "Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the VP is such a VIP, shouldn't we keep the PC on the QT? Cause of the leaks to the VC, he could end up MIA and then we'd all be put out in KP." Lane Myer: Sorry Johnny, I don't have a dime. Johnny: Didn't ask for a dime. Two dollars. Lane Myer: My little brother got his arm stuck in the microwave. So my mom had to take him to the hospital. My grandma dropped acid this morning, and she freaked out. She hijacked a busload of penguins. So it's sort of a family crisis. Bye! [slams the door shut]

Si82 Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 The finale of Little Shop of Horrors. I love that film but I think Steve Martin being introduced as the dentist is the best part. That and when he's treating Bill Murry.
Ced Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 Bloodsport - "Chong Li! Chong Li! Chong Li!" - "You break my record. Now I break YOU like I break your friend!" - The splits punch UHF - The blind man and the Rubik's cube "Is this it?" "No." "It's this it?" "No." - The Wheel of Fish - Raul teaching poodles how to fly
Yuna_Firerose Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 The finale of Little Shop of Horrors. I love that film but I think Steve Martin being introduced as the dentist is the best part. That and when he's treating Bill Murry. My very first introduction to anything of a gay nature. I love it. "Caaaaaaaaaandy bar! Ohhh yeah.... THANK YOUUUUUU!" Orin: [holding a dentist's tool] Let me ask you something! Does this scare you? Would you like if I took this and headed right for your damn incisors? Seymour: [looks terrified] Orin: It'd hurt, right? Seymour: Uh huh. Orin: You'd scream, right? Seymour: Uh huh. Orin: Well get your ass in here! Beetlejuice: I'm the ghost with the most, babe.
tigeraid Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 Oh... "THOSE MEN WANTED TO HAVE SEX WITH ME!" Trading Spaces. That line and Jamie Lee Curtis topless. Doesn't get much better than that.
NoCalMike Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 Phobe Cates, a Swimming Pool, a Red Bikini.....yeah you know where this is going... "I heard a Ruckus" The Johnny Cab from Total Recall "Times like this I wish I had three hands" The Army showing up to help, 10 seconds after the Monsters were defeated in the Monster Squad "Hi I'm Chucky Wanna Plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay" The mom discovering CHucky didn't have any batteries in his pack, and all hell breaking loose
Gary Floyd Posted April 29, 2006 Report Posted April 29, 2006 "Where are your hands?" "Between two soft pillows." "Those aren't pillows!" - Planes, Trains, Automobiles Oh hell yes. I love that movie. "From Beyond-The "kiss" scene Texas Chainsaw Massacre-Drayton tries to explain to his son Leatherface the birds and the bees, and spells sex "S-C-E-X!" Blood Simple-"I Ain't Afraid O' You Marty" "Well, ma'am, if I see him, I'll sure give him the message." One of my favorite endings ever. Street Trash-Severed Penis Hot Potato
