Classic movie lines are those that are not only totally awesome, but appropriate for almost any situation, and are instantly recognizable even if someone hasn’t seen the movie. An essential element of camp is also the hallmark of a quality, instantly and perpetually quotable movie line. This line from the hugely buzzed up “Brokeback Mountain” has got to be one of my favorite movie lines ever. It ranks up there with these other total classic movie lines:
“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.”
“You can’t fight in here. This is the war room.”
“I am serious. And stop calling me Shirley.”
“Nobody puts Baby in a corner.”
“You’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
“Here’s lookin’ at you kid” (almost all of the best lines from Casablanca could fit here)
Feel free to add your own favorites!
