...do you think you've quoted the most times from, in your life?

I would have to guess Happy Gilmore or Caddyshack for me, just because it seems like you can't play a round of golf without quoting those. But maybe Top Gun! Or This is Spinal Tap!

Man. So many choices.

Either Ace Ventura is probably tops for me.

Talladega Nights a close 2nd.

Any Austin Powers movie is probably 3rd right along side Dumb and Dumber.

And I realize I'm a fan of dumb comedies.

We used to yell out 'BAYONETS' from the TNT Movie Gettysburg in college just because.
So Gettysburg is up there.

Also, a lot of 'General Lee, I have no division'.

Talladega Nights is a great candidate because of "If you're not first, you're last" alone.

Which brings up a related question - is there a movie that should actually be the blindingly obvious choice, because a line has entered into the general lexicon?

Like, I would never intentionally quote When Harry Met Sally otherwise, but I certainly have said some variation of "I'll have what she's having."

As a KU fan the movie line, or derivatives of, that I like the least is "we're not in Kansas anymore"

And 107% of the time people say that line, they do it with a genuine sense of originality and novelty.

The one that sticks out to me is one that have entered people's everyday lingo. One of my all-time favorites and one that should be on my most-quotable list

Forrest Gump
"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get"

I love that movie for it's constant quotes that I say...
"I gotta pee"
"I was runnnniiinngg"
"Lt. Dan! ICE CREAM!"
"RUN FORREST RUN"
"That's all I've got to say about that"
