The thing about the lines in this movie is that they could have been from anything. They just don't stand out. Nothing like the exchange of dialog between Willie and Indy in the palace when Indy brings her the fruit.

"Looks like you brought a knife to a gun fight" is a good line but I'm pretty damn sure it's borrowed from something else which is really sad.

I hated Kingdom (read review).
This film's dialogue is beyond the pale for the most part.
The line, "You're a teacher?"
"Part-time."
is 100% brilliant. It's really, really funny and I'm sad they used it in the trailer.
I love the "I like Ike" line a lot, too - I'm curious if people on here know the context or what it refers to, and that's not an insult, more an ageist reference.

Dr Jones, wasn't it the Sultan of Madagascar who threatened to cut off your head if you ever returned to his country?
Indiana Jones: No, it wasn't my head.
Chattar Lal: Then your hands, perhaps?
Indiana Jones: No, it wasn't my hands. It was my... .
[looks down at his groin]
Indiana Jonesl: my misunderstanding.
chattar lal: which is excatly what we have here.
I dare anyone to give me lines like that from kingdom.

"Isn't that just like a whop..."
The Untouchables (1987) -- "Isn't that just like a whop. Bring a knife to a gun fight."
The phrase "knife to a gunfight" has been used in various ways since then.
I thought of a line I actually really liked:
"Your name is Professor Harold Oxley, we studied at the University of Chicago, and you were never this interesting!"

One of the funniest was from the Russian guard?"Please, for love of God, shut the hell up!"
Although I did like:
"Says 'Grave robbers will be shot'!"
"Good thing we're not grave robbers, then."

"I like Ike!" is one of the best! Love it! It's sad when I saw it the 3rd time with a bunch of annoying high school kids they didn't get it.

Yeah, try walking out of most films and quoting them the next day. I imagine you'd manage about 3 at most. I enjoyed Iron Man but I'd struggle to think of many lines from that.
Oh, and it's not a line, but I loved the bit in the truck where Mutt flips Indy the switchblade, only for it to land on his shoulder.
The Oxley line: and you were never this interesting... was great also.
