Name the movies:
"This is my house, not a pigsty."
"Gimme my hundred bucks!"
(don't care for the movie, but I love this line)
"The stuff that dreams are made of."
"Shut up and deal"
"Closer than that, Walter."
"A thousand poets dreamed a thousand years, and you werre born, my
love."
"Mein Fuhrer, I can walk!"
"You can have me for nothing."
"Everybody dies"
"Damn you all to hell!"

Although several others on this list are quite worthy, this would be my pick
of the lot.

No he doesn't. He says, "non," and besides, it's not at the end of the
movie, and you don't get any credit because I thought of it first, and I
didn't post because it didn't fit, and so there, nyah.

I'm so happy to be the device that let you vent all that built-up

Anyway, it's a stupid flick so who cares? Glad you're feeling

You left out an "uh." It's the "uh" that really does it.

I think this one may be the best of all.
A great ending to a movie I'm only lukewarm about: "Now that's the
dumbest thing I ever heard."
Here's a last line I love even though I prefer the book's ending:
Movie: "What you want me to say is 'I love you'... I love you... I
love you... I love
you... I love you..."
Book: "She walked rapidly in the thin June light towards the worst
horror of all."
Who knows it without googling?
Tom (who's rather surprised that "For a moment there, I thought we
were in trouble" hasn't shown up yet)
Joe Gillis
OK, Mr. Expert. "Uh, the stuff that dreams are made of" is NOT the
last line of the movie. Ward Bond responds by saying "Huh?".
Feel free to nitpick that.

I don't know, but it reminds me of Dickinson's:
There's a certain slant of light,
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes.

I didn't mean to pick a fight. I just like the "uh."

Well, if you insist:
The "uh" comes after the "The."
And the thread header says "The Last Line (or near it)."

No Man
Maybe
There's a certain slant of bait,
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes.
Or maybe
There's a certain slant of light,
On chained snowy tires
That oppresses, like the height
Of cathedral spires.

I think we can identify that writer. Twain. He claimed that distinction for
education, I believe, though I'm not gonna look it up. Education allows you
to know - and the rest of it.

Actually it was this guy:

He also said, "There are 400,000,000 rats in the city of New York. Of
course, I am speaking only from memory."

Seems so. But I first read it in Twain.

Yes. Twain quoted Nye's remark in his autobiography. I first heard
it from either Dennis Muir or Frank Muir in a BBC program - My Music
