I saw this in one of my wife's magazine.

"what's your favorite movie line of all time?"

my personnal favorite :

"She wasn't kissing your face, my love!"

Persephone to the Merovingian in Matrix Reloaded, after she mentionned the lipstick he was still wearing.

close second again from The matrix Reloaded

"...to curse in french, nom de Dieu de putain de bordel de merde d'enculé de ta mère, it's like wiping your ass with silk, I love it!"

The Merovigian
 
I shudder at the thought of how many Monty Python jokes will be rehashed here once again...
 
My favourite might be Roy Batty's monologue at the end of Blade Runner ("All those... moments, will be lost, like... tears... in rain."), possibly something else from that movie. Or from Casablanca.

This is funny. Just the other day I was thinking about how The Matrix is a pretty kickass standalone movie, despite the presence of Keanu Reeves and whatnot, and how the other two don't make it look like they were conceived as a trilogy (much like the original SW trilogy). Then I got to thinking of what was cringeworthy in Reloaded that was noticeably different from the tone in the first movie, and what immediately came to mind were the two lines you quote above. I was thinking how the Wachowski brothers must have thought they looked swell in the script, and yet in the movie they fall so pathetically flat. It's like the "Noooo!" as the end of RotS, someone should have caught it and said, "Look, I can see what you were thinking here, but it doesn't work, it should go." If you had instead started a thread asking for the worst movie quotes or quotes that conspicuously fail to achieve the desired effect, it's very possible I had mentioned those two simply because I had been thinking about them. I swear I'm not making this up.
 
Pretty much everything Rhet Butler said in Gone With the Wind was awesome. I wish I was that snappy.
 
"I know you all half as much as I would like, and I like you all twice as much as you deserve."

Lord of the rings


"I lie, even when I tell the truth"

Scarface
 
Movies often function as a kind of inflated show of the wit and creativeness in conversations people would like to have.

For success at this, see most Quentin films or films with Humphrey Bogart in them

For failure at this, see Donnie Darko or Kill Bill.

Sanjuro: You're all tough, then?
Gambler: What? Kill me if you can!
Sanjuro: It'll hurt.
 
The Passion of the Christ -

"AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH! ARRRRRRRGH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Don't forget all the random one-word Latin phrases the Romans balk there

Romans sure were dumb and communicated like a bunch of barbars
 
I know there are much better lines, but since I can't think of anything else that was either from a recent movie, one that sucked, or both I'll say;

-"You are...and always will be...my friend."

Spock in one of the Star Trek movies.

(shrugs),
The Vault Dweller
 
Really, though, my favorite line from any movie is the following:

"I worry that my son might not understand what I've tried to be. And if I were to be killed, Willard, I would want someone to go to my home and tell my son everything. Everything I did, everything you saw, because there's nothing that I detest more than the stench of lies. And if you understand me Willard, you will do this for me."
-Apocalypse Now
 
I'd have to go with almost anything said by the Drill Sergent or Private Pile in "Full Metal Jacket". Ah! Genius, all of it...
 
One of my recent favorites:

"Thanks for your honesty. Now fuck off and die." - Closer.

Someone needs to revive the Movie Quotes game...
 
"Your so fucking money and you don't even know it." - Trent

"I'm talking about drawing a line in the sand dude. Across this line YOU DO NOT... also, dude, 'chinaman' is not the preferred knowinglature. 'Asian American' please." - Walter Sobcheck

Shut the fuck up, Donnie.
 
'White power! WHITE POWER!!"
"Blue power motherfuckers!"

Hell, 3/4s of Bad Boys 1 +2 is just a riot.

"You had best unfuck yourself or I will unscrew your head and shit down your neck."

"I bet you're the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass, and not even have the god damned common courtesy to give him a reach around."

"I'm gonna give you three seconds--exactly three fucking seconds--to wipe that stupid lookin' grin off your face, or I will gouge out your eyeballs and skull fuck you!"

"I admire your honesty. Hell, I like you, you can come over to my house and fuck my sister."

"Were you born worthless, or did you have to work at it?"

"I wanted to meet interesting and stimulating people of an ancient culture, and kill them. I wanted to be the first kid on my block to get a confirmed kill."

"Do you suck dicks? Bullshit! I bet you could suck a golfball through a guarden hose."

it becomes even better if you know that the drill sarge was a real one (retired ofc). over half the curses & insults were NOT in the script, they just improvised...

And that his voice made FO: Tactics just a little bit better.

"Let me tell you something, pandejo, you pull any crazy shit with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you and stick it up your ass and pull the fuckin' trigger 'till it goes "click". Nobody fucks with the Jesus."
