"I'm sorry, I meant drop dead, Comrade"
"We seem to have reached the age where life stops giving us things and starts taking them away."
"I like Ike."
"Oh that can''t be good at all!"
"Do I look like a mailman?"
"Get on Gramps!"
"Not into space, into the space between spaces."
"What're you, like 80?"
"Damn, I thought that was closer..."
"Well, you know me, always glad to help..."
"I've got a bad feeling about this."
"Come on, genius."

"Big damn Ants!"
All these replies are fantastic, i do find myself quoting Three times it drops in skool to everyones dismay i do love saying. whenever im sad and i feel happy i say... Through eyes at last i saw in tears, thanks for posting.
Mac: This ain't gonna be easy.
Indy: Not as easy as it used to be.
That's like a John Wayne level of iconic. It's easily my favorite of all the "I'm too old for this ****" type lines that aging movie heroes have spouted in recent years.
I'm also partial to the tent scene dialogue, in which we get to hear two rejected Indy 4 titles incorporated:
Spalko: "Now I am become Death, The Destroyer of Worlds."
"I'm sorry, I meant drop dead, Comrade"
"We seem to have reached the age where life stops giving us things and starts taking them away."
"I like Ike."
"Oh that can''t be good at all!"
"Do I look like a mailman?"
"Get on Gramps!"
"Not into space, into the space between spaces."
"What're you, like 80?"
"Damn, I thought that was closer..."
"Well, you know me, always glad to help..."
"I've got a bad feeling about this."
"Come on, genius."
"There's no Sears and Roebuck here!"
"Get that greaser!"
"They weren't you, honey."
"Henry Jones, Jr!"
"Big damn Ants!"
"Saucer Men from Mars?"
"Well you know me, always glad to help!"
"C'mon..."
"Why don't you stick around, Junior?"
"How much of life is lost in waiting?"
"Good thing we're not grave robbers."
"You're a...a teacher?!"
"Part time."
"You don't know him!"
"Are you still leaving a trail of human wreakage, or have you retired?"
"Same old, same old."
"Grab the snake!"
"Three times it drops..."
"Ouch..."
"It's just a thing!"
"Jonesy!"
"If you want to be a good archaeologist, you gotta get out of the library!"
HAHAHAHAHA! That's great! I laughed even reading it!!! Nice one! I like all those. I also like one that I may quote wrong, but I'm talking about the one where they are at the camp and Spalko is about to kill Mutt, and he combs his hair and says "Okay do it".
BUT THAT"S NOT IT, what I like is that Indy goes like "You heard him."
Its like he's saying "I don't care, kill him."
kinda obvious but i loved "not as easy as it used to be" ... also "drop dead, comrade" ... "big damn ants" ... and even tho the marion re-union felt a bit flat to me the "they weren't you, honey" bit was cool!
i think CRUSADE is my favorite indy movie to quote tho ... so many great lines

Indy saying "You heard him" either suggests that he simply doesn't care wether or not his young sidekick will be spiked by the sword pointed at his throat (said sidekick -in a sudden swashbuckling moment, or is it just naive young male stupidity that stems from the desire to appear all strong and indestructible? And if the latter is true, why doesn't Indy react to that behaviour, as he did before?- doesn't seem to care about his own death either.) or it implies that he's certain Spalko won't kill Mutt.
The first option is out of character and the second possibility seems to only further confirm the notion that there's no threat in that scene to begin with.
It's a stupid scene that left me more worried and confused than amused. But hey, if it makes you laugh, that's nice I guess.
