Possible lines from other movies that Indy could use

I thought this would make an interesting thread. :D

Are there any lines from other movies that you feel are typical Indy lines?

For instance, the line spoken by Rick O'Connell in the Mummy: "We are in serious trouble!" is a line that I could easly see Indy using in one situation or another.

I'd love to hear your views and suggestions on this. ;)
 
So Indy would be even more of a rip-off than he already is???? (Ya... I know... George and Steve call him an "homage" but that's just semantics..."

IF Indy was up to the challenge (A BIG IF, and probably only pre- TOD) I suspect he'd ascribe to the philosophy "Better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool", from "Harley Davidson and the Marlborough Man"

Not exactly Indyish, but I'd love to hear Harrison say: "Yippiekiyay Motherf..." :whip:

How about the Lethal Weapon (tired) joke...."I'm getting to old for this [edit for content]"...?

ooooh, this coulf be fun, Canyon...I like it!

How about some lines from the Tarantino Classic, Pulp Fiction:

"Say what again. SAY WHAT AGAIN. I dare you, I double dare you..."

or

"The way your dad looked at it, this watch was your birthright..."

or

"This was Divine Intervention! You know what "divine intervention" is?"

okay maybe not Pulp Fiction, but how about Army of Darkness:

"Gimme some sugar, baby."...four words, for those paying attention

"Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun."

"Maybe. Just maybe my boys can protect the book. Yeah, and maybe I'm a Chinese jet pilot."

and

"Alright. Who wants some?"...4 again

Whadaya think? I think Ash and Indy are "very much alike".

Canyon, you should make this into a contest thread.

How about some of my favorite MacGyver quotes...

"You may not believe this, but there have been times when I've had a lot more fun in the back seat of a car."

"We're all gonna die. The trick is not to rush it."


And a good line to end the movie..... "I've got a great idea. Why don't we quit while I'm winning?" (Pete from MacGyver)

I always would like to see a little urban in Indy, maybe from T.V.s hit series Good Times, he could do the old

"Dyno-Mite!"

or a little Chris Tucker from Rush Hour if he has to speak to an Asian . . .
"Nobody understands the words coming out of your mouth!"

or another Christ Tucker classic from Friday, after Indy knocks out a bad guy,

"You got Knocked the F**K OUT!"

just me thinking

Great idea for a thread Canyon!

How about some quotes from Futurama (not Indy-like but this is all in good fun anyway):)

"This is the worst kind of discrimination....the kind against me!"

"Don't do anything that affects anything, unless it turns out you were supposed to do it, in which case, don't not do it."

"Ah, to be young again... and also a robot."

"What? After I spent MONTHS slaving over a hot monkey brain?"

"Fool me seven times, shame on you. Fool me eight or more times, shame on me."

"Cheating in a fake fight. That's low."

"Stop exploding, you cowards!"

"Well, guys, we're about to get our guts kicked out by folk singers."

Great responses, guys. Thanks. ;)

I've just thought of another one. It's a variation of a line used by Dan Ackroyd from Spies Like Us. His line is "You know, I must really like you, because I don't like horses and I hate guns!"

Indy's line could be: "You know. I must really like you, because I don't like Nazi's and I hate snakes!"

Anything from the Mummy movies could easily. In particular, Rick O'Connell's lines (and let's face it, Brendan Fraser acted like a Indy wannabe). Like that scene in Mummy Returns, where the good guys are driving away in the doulble decker and the mummies are chasing them and are about to jump on O'Connell's car..

O'CONNELL:

Oh no! Not the car

The car is smashed up by the mummies.

O'CONNELL:

Oh, I hate mummies!!

or...

O'CONNELL (to Ardeth Bay):Just like old times, huh?

Indy's quote "Travling thru nazi country ain't just like driving on the open road kid!" ;)
