"It's easy to be philosophical when some other c---'s got sh--e for blood." ~ Mark Renton, Trainspotting
"It was the kind of baby that, after you fed it, you threw up." ~ Christina Ricci's character, The Opposite of Sex
"You talkin' to me?" ~ Travis, Taxi Driver [even if it's turned into a cliché]
"You're so-o ambitious, aren't you? You know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well-scrubbed, hustling rube, with a little taste. Good nutrition's given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desperately to shed - pure West Virginia. What does your father do? Is he a coal miner? Does he stink of the lamp? You know how quickly the boys found you. All those tedious, sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars, while you could only dream of getting out. Getting anywhere, getting all the way to the F...B...I." ~ Dr. Lecter

I agree, why take the time to reply if the editors are going through every detail with a fine tooth comb!! It's not on! who's to say what we can read !! I would like to go through the discarded reviews, I think we should be given the right to view material or at least some level of choice alternative. There are alot of interesting people who contribute to this site who are capable of more than the average two line post's. Participants to the forum should have some airspace to view their comments!! I think it's rude that you do'nt even get a reply telling you why material has'nt been used on the forum. Most of the classic films have swearing in them, Scarface, Goodfella's, Casino to name but a few. If you think that the majority of kids & adults have not come across any swearing at some point in their live's it's time to get real. If parents who are sensitive to this material should impose the use of NET NANNY or other suchlike programs, or wimp off if the oddball word offends. After all this is supposed to be a non main stream forum & film channel
I love the poem in Dead Poet's Society - something about sampling all of life so that when you come to die you will not discover that you had not lived.
Also anything from Fight Club (except it is lifted from the novel so should not really count as a movie quote) in particular, "sticking feathers up your b*** does not make you a chicken" "I'm not paying this back, I consider it a**hole tax". Classic.
I love the part in Thelma and Louise when Thelma tells Louise that she can't go back to her old life "something's crossed over in me and I can't go back. I just couldn't live".
And my all time favourite is in Gallipoli when the Aussie soldiers trash a shop in Cairo cos they think the shop owner ripped off their mate and as they are running down the road in delight and triumph they yell out "You're dealing with Australians here" except they trashed the wrong shop! So typical of Australians (I am one and can say what I like about us)
Just remembered True Romance. In my opinion the best film that Tarantino's been involved. Great cast (Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Brad Pitt, Gary Oldman, Christopher Walken, Dennis Hopper, James Gandolfini, Val Kilmer, Samuel L Jackson etc) amazing soundtrack and brilliant quotable lines.
"It looks like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down"
And of course Clarence's memorable (sort of) tribute to Elvis.
"He didn't give a fk about nothin' except rocking and rolling, living fast, dying young and leaving a good looking corpse. I watch that hillbilly and I want to be him so bad.
And man, Elvis looked so good. I ain't no fag but Elvis was prettier than most women,....you know I always said that if I had to fk a man, you know had to, if my life depended on it, I'd fk Elvis."
It's also got one of my favourite ever movie scenes where Christopher Walken playing a Mafia godfather-type is torturing Dennis Hopper for information and Dennis responds by explaining to him how Sicilians originated from "niggers".
(Sorry if that word offends people or is deemed politically incorrect but am just quoting from the film )

That someone will die is a certainty. That I will die is a matter of circumstance. I will not be a victim of anything so trivial as circumstance.

Carlos: What, were they psychos, or...? Seth: Did they look like psychos? Is that what they looked like? They were vampires. Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them, I don't give a f*** how crazy they are.
But my favourite is Seth refusing to take Kate with him to El ray at the end of the film...
Seth: I may be a b*****d, but I'm not a f*****g b******d.
