Write that down...

Is there anything more fun than quoting movies? With just one line, you can bring people back to feel the emotion of a whole movie, and get some decent laughs. Generally comedies quote better than dramas or action movies (and foreign films suck to quote - no one knows what your saying with out the subtitling...and subtitling doesn't exist in real life). I think we all need to take some time and refresh ourselves on the best quote movies of all-time. Here's my top 5 most quotable movies, along with some thoughts and top quotes.

1) Van Wilder. There is no movie I quote more, from "Write that down," to "Are you stalking me? Because that would be super!" to "Sorry boys, the bakery is closed," to "Naomi, that's 'I Moan' backwards." Simply put, the best ever quote movie. Very underrated, no matter what it's rated (unless it's rated #1 of course).

2) Caddyshack. Everyone reading this ought to be able to run off 4 Caddyshack quotes instantly, if not, go back and watch this movie. Chevy Chase at his best. Also, and very importantly, Caddyshack II sucks. A lot.

3) Casablanca. A classic, even if in black and white. When the American Film Institute came out with it's list of 100 greatest movie quotes, Casablanca was the film with the most quotes, 7. Some are serious, some are funny, and most people quoting the movie don't know that they are quoting this movie. Stellar.

4) Full Metal Jacket. Truthfully, you only need to watch the first hour of this movie. Once Vincent D'onofrio dies, the movie loses a lot. Quick - what are the only two things to come out of Texas? I don't need to say anymore.

5) Fletch. Again, Chevy Chase at his best. Too many good quotes to list, so here's a link:

Just missing the cut:
