    There may have been a thread one this earlier, but I watched Avatar for the second time last night and during the security speech when I heard "You are not in Kansas anymore" it dawned on me how often that phrase comes up, either in other movies or from ordinary people. I wonder if the writers for the Wizard of Oz ever thought that line would be so well-known 75 years later.

    So what other movie lines do you hear incorporated into normal conversation, or commonly referred to as an attempt at humor?

    Here are a few to start off:

    "Life is like a box of chocolates"
    "I'm gonna get midieval on his a$$"
    "I'll be back" (obligatory Ah-nuld voice)

    Now that you have the idea, let's hear them!

    Almost nobody from this generation has actually seen it, but everyone says: "play it again Sam" And I want to smack them!

    (The line isn't even in the movie)

    Mother is describing her daughter to another adult who has just accused the girl of being a lesbian. My daughters use the line all of the time.

    Just make sure when they ask you to take your top off to get the money first.

    From the best movie ever made (same director as Avatar, no coincidence):

    I'll be back.

    Come with me if you want to live.

    Hasta la vista, baby.

    Less heard, but I use it a lot around friends:

    Dumb & Dumber is a suprisingly quotable movie. I must admit to having said on occasion to good friends:

    "Just when I think you couldn't get any dumber you do something like this...
    AND TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!"

    It is very quotable. I know I've quoted it a ton.
