    A Few Good Men has so many of these for me.

    Kaffee: You got authorization from Aunt Ginny.
    Galloway: Very nice woman. I gave her a call like you asked. We spoke for about an hour.
    Kaffee: Does Auny Ginny have a barn? We could hold the trial there. Maybe his uncle Goober could be the judge."
    Galloway: I'm going to Cuba with you tomorrow.
    Kaffee: And the hits just keeeep ooooooooon coming.


    Kaffee: Whoa. Hold it. We gotta take a boat?
    Barnes: Yes, sir. To get to the other side of the bay.
    Kaffee: Nobody said anything about a boat.
    Barnes: Is there a problem, sir?
    Kaffee: No, no problem. I'm just not that crazy about boats, that's all.
    Galloway: Jesus Christ, Kaffee, you're in the Navy for crying out loud.
    Kaffee: Nobody likes her very much.
    Barnes: Yes, sir!

    As a comic book geek, of course I'll toss out a couple from Iron Man.

    (first meeting between Tony Stark and Pepper Potts after Tony returns from captivity)
    Tony: Hmmm. Your eyes are red. Tears for your long lost boss?
    Pepper: Tears of joy. I hate job hunting.
    Tony: Yeah, well, vacation's over.

    (as Tony is testing his rocket boots and a robot stands by with an extinguisher)
    Tony: Day 11, Test 37, Configuration 2.0. For lack of a better option, Dummy is still on fire safety.
    (turns to the robot)
    Tony: If you douse me again, and I'm not on fire, I'm donating you to a city college.

    (one of the better exchanges between Tony and Pepper)
    Tony: Am I making you uncomfortable?
    Pepper: Oh, no, I always forget to wear deodorant and dance with my boss in a room full of people I work with in a dress with no back.
    Tony: Well, you look great, you smell great. But I could fire you if that would take the edge off.
    Pepper: I don't think you could tie your shoes without me.
    Tony: I'd make it a week.
    Pepper: A week, really? What's your social security number?
    Tony: (after a long pause): Five...
    Pepper:"Five?" You're missing just a couple of digits.
    Tony: Right, the other eight. Well, I have you for the other eight.

    Was just rewatching "The Avengers" and Stark has the best lines in that one, too.

    • To Loki, who's wearing his big-horned helmet: "Make your move, Reindeer Games."
    • To Thor: "No hard feelings, Point Break, you've got a mean swing."
    • To Hawkeye, who's just asked for a ride to atop a building: "Right. Better clench up, Legolas."
    • To Loki, who has just tried his mind control, only to be thwarted by Tony's chest reactor and muttering "That usually works.": "Performance issues are not uncommon. One out of five..."

    and, of course,

    "THAT MAN IS PLAYING GALAGA!"

    "The Count of Monte Crisco."
    "The County of Monte Cristo. You'll like it. It's about a prison break."
    "Shouldn't we file that under educational?"

    Predator:

    "You're hit, man. You're bleeding."

    "Ain't got time to bleed."

    (mortar gets shot at the bunker above)

    "Oh... got time to duck?"


    And, of course...

    "You're one. Ugly. Mother......!"

    Ocean's Eleven:

    Reuben: "I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place and I'll never forget it."
    Danny: "That was our pleasure."
    Rusty: "I'd never been to Belize."

    There are about 100 of them in Fletch. My favorite: when he arrives at the tennis club and accidentally hits the Mercedes with his swing. It's a nothing moment, but it's perfect and very, very funny.

    A throwaway line from a throwaway Rom/Com (5 Year Engagement):

    Well maybe as nice as little elmos are, Elmo should have considered using protection! C is for condom! That's good enough for me!

    Captain America had a few.

    When Rogers breaks into the Hydra camp looking for the 107th , and opens all the cells. "What, are we letting everyone go?" "I'm from San Francisco."

    Also, when a soldier first picks up a Tesseract-powered gun "You know how to use that?"

    Superbad (which is on now). When they're dragging McLovin to the police car and the kid spits on Hader's shirt, then he KOs him with the nightstick: "Nice mullet, asshole."

    Dumb and Dumber, when Lloyd Christmas is coming out of the 7-11.

    "Hey guys! Big Gulps, huh? All right! Well, see ya later."
