Damn, I'm pretty much a movie quote-spouting machine. Sometimes I even do it in public and then I get some weird looks. Here are the common ones I say:

Back to the Future:
"Great Scott!"/"This is heavy!" (of course)
"1.21 gigawatts!"
"Hey McFly, you bojo! Those boards don't work on water - unless you've got power!"
"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads."
"How's it hanging, McFly?"
"Run for fun? What the hell kind of fun is that?"

Forrest Gump:
Almost literally the entire movie. At one time I had the first half-hour of it memorized.

Cannibal! The Musical:
Shpadoinkle Day (song)
"I'm Alferd Packer, and this is my horse Lianne." (from the original trailer)
"W-w-was she with you on your trip?"
"But that's not the way it happened."
"Fudge, Packer?"
"He says, 'Welcome to the land of blue light.'"
"Look at all these teepees we have - because, we are... Indians!"
"Oh I wish I were in the land of cotton, old times there are not forgotten. Look away, look away, look away!"
Etc...

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas:
"What? No! We can't stop here, this is bat country!"
"I feel a bit light-headed, maybe you should drive."
"What's the score here? What's next?"
"That stuff makes pure mescaline seem like ginger beer."

And so many more I don't feel like typing out...
From "Foxy Brown":

Bobbie: Listen skinny, before you start talking tough, I'd better warn you I've got a black belt in karate. So why don't you get out of here quietly, while you still got some teeth left in that ugly face?
[Foxy knocks her down with a barstool]
Foxy Brown: And I've got MY black belt in barstools!

I. Love. Pam. Grier.
Pretty much anything from Firefly and Serenety. Mainly I just warn people about the special hell.
From The Big Lebowski:

"Do you see what happens, Larry, WHEN YOU *** A STRANGER IN THE ***? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, LARRY! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU *** A STRANGER IN THE ***!" A memorable scene from a memorable movie.

Also, from 300:

"Madness? THIS IS SPARTAAAA!!!!!"

"Spartans! Ready your breakfast and eat hearty, for TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL!!"

"Go tell the Spartans, passer-by, that here by Spartan law we lie." (not really a movie quote but I love this line anway)

And the king of oneliners is Arnold Schwarzenegger:

"I eat Green Berets for breakfast and right now I am VERY hungry!" (Commando)

Matrix - "Sully, remember when I promised to kill you last?" - Sully, "That's right Matrix, you did" - Matrix - "I lied." (Commando)

Some more mixed stuff from Predator:

"Bunch of slack-jawed ***s around here. This stuff will make you a god damned sexual Tyrannosaurus, just like me."
"This place makes Cambodia look like Kansas."
"You're one UGLY *******."
"Stick around."
"Come on... Come on! Do it! Do it! Come on. Come on! Kill me! I'm here! Kill me! I'm here! Kill me! Come on! Kill me! I'm here! Come on! Do it now! Kill me!"

And of course the best one:

"Get to da choppah!Auugh!"

I could go on and on about Arnie movies...They're pretty much memorable quotes and oneliners chained together by some action scenes.
From the drug dealer in Diggers:

"Well, it's been a business selling pleasure to you"
Spaced, episode 2.2

Bilbo: " 'The Phantom Menace'... was eightteen months ago, Tim."
Tim:   "I know, Bilbo.. ok.. it just...it still hurts! You know, that kid wanted a Jar Jar doll."
Bilbo: "Kids like Jar Jar!"
Tim:  "Why?!"
Bilbo: "What about the Ewoks, hu? They were rubbish! You don't complain about them..."
Tim:  "Yea, but... Jar Jar Binks makes the Ewoks look like... fuckin' SHAFT!"
From Shaun of the Dead:

'Barbara: [Over the phone] Some men tried to get into the house.
Shaun: Well are they still there?
Barbara: [Over the phone] I'm not sure, we've shut the curtains.'

and from Blues Brothers (best film ever made):

'Elwood: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it!'
-The "Star Wars" movies are full of good quotes....if I had to pick one favorite:
Leia to Han: "You do have your moments.....not many, but you do have them."  Smile

-Deanna Troi's drunk scene in "Star Trek: First Contact" during which she introduces Riker to Zephram Cochrane (who's also drunk.) I could quote most of it, but it really has to be seen to get the full amusing impact.  ("You want my....(hic) PROFESSIONAL opinion as ship's COUNSELOR? (hic) He's NUTS."   Tongue)

-Pretty much any Merry/Pippin scene in "The Lord Of The Rings" movies.   ("You need people of intelligence on this mission.....quest....thing."  "Well, that rules you out, Pip." Big Grin)

-And, of course:
"Don't try to quantify me, Clarice.  A census taker once tried to quantify me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. (makes slurping sounds)" - Hannibal Lecter in "The Silence Of The Lambs"   Tongue Tongue
Fight Club, great movie.
You left our "Did you know you can make Napalm from gasoline and orange juice conentrate?" Say that at a party, you'll get the craziest stares.
"Are we the first, are we the first to arrive here?"

"This isn't a moon burn you know"

Close encounters of the third kind

Contact

the shining

jack: wendy!  light of my life!

wendy: don't hurt me!  (walking up the stairs backwards, holding a baseball bat, backing away from her insane husband)

Dark Helmet: So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

Lone Starr: What the hell was that noise?
Dot Matrix: That was my virgin-alarm. It's programmed to go off before you do!
Sir Lancelot: We were in the nick of time. You were in great peril.
Sir Galahad: I don't think I was.
Sir Lancelot: Yes, you were. You were in terrible peril.
Sir Galahad: Look, let me go back in there and face the peril.
Sir Lancelot: No, it's too perilous.
Sir Galahad: Look, it's my duty as a knight to sample as much peril as I can.
Sir Lancelot: No, we've got to find the Holy Grail. Come on.
Sir Galahad: Oh, let me have just a little bit of peril?
Sir Lancelot: No. It's unhealthy.
Sir Galahad: I bet you're gay.
Sir Lancelot: Am not.

Dennis: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

King of Swamp Castle: One day, lad, all this will be yours.
Prince Herbert: What, the curtains?

King Arthur: On second thoughts, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place.

Prince Herbert: He's come to rescue me, father!
Sir Lancelot: Well, let's not jump to conclusions.
King of Swamp Castle: Did you kill all those guards?
Sir Lancelot: Um... oh, yes! Sorry.
King of Swamp Castle: They cost fifty pounds each!
Sir Lancelot: Well, the thing is, I thought your son was a lady.
King of Swamp Castle: Well, I can understand that.
Brian's mother: He's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy!

Brian: I'm not the Messiah! Will you please listen? I am not the Messiah, do you understand? Honestly!
Girl: Only the true Messiah denies His divinity.
Brian: What? Well, what sort of chance does that give me? All right! I am the Messiah!
Followers: He is! He is the Messiah!
Brian: Now, f**k off!
*pause*
Arthur: How shall we f**k off, O Lord?

Brian: Please, please, please listen! I've got one or two things to say.
The Crowd: Tell us! Tell us both of them!
Brian: Look, you've got it all wrong! You don't NEED to follow ME, You don't NEED to follow ANYBODY! You've got to think for your selves! You're ALL individuals!
The Crowd: Yes! We're all individuals!
Brian: You're all different!
The Crowd: Yes, we ARE all different!
Man in crowd: I'm not...
The Crowd: Sch!

Matthias: Look, I don't think it should be a sin, just for saying "Jehovah".
*Everyone gasps*

Matthias: Making it worse? How can it be worse? Jehovah! Jehovah! Jehovah!
Jewish Official: I'm warning you! If you say "Jehovah" one more time (gets hit with rock) RIGHT! Who did that? Come on, who did it?
Stoners: She did! She did! (suddenly speaking as men) He! He did! He!
Jewish Official: Was it you?
Stoner: Yes.
Jewish Official: Right...
Stoner: Well you did say "Jehovah. "
*Crowd throws rocks at the stoner*
Jewish Official: STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! STOP IT! All right, no one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle. Even... and I want to make this absolutely clear... even if they do say, "Jehovah. "
*Crowd stones the Jewish Official to death*

Brian's mother: Who are you?
Wise Man #2: We are three wise men.
Brian's mother: What?
Wise Man #1: We are three wise men.
Brian's mother: Well, what are you doing creeping around a cow shed at two o'clock in the morning? That doesn't sound very wise to me.
