This can come from a movie, book, videogame, whatever.

What's your fave one-liner, that is said before or after the person saying it kills someone or somethoing else?

E.G. From the movie Commando:

The greatest post-mortem one-liner of all time is the following: Schwarzenegger has just chased down and run Sully's (David Patrick Kelly) Porsche off the road with an Austin Healy Sprite. After ramming the Sprite head-on at 80 miles-per-hour into a telephone pole, Arnold checks to see if Rae Dawn is alive and then pulls Sully out of the Porsche, demanding to know where his (Matrix's) daughter is. Sully tells him to fuck off. Arnold says, "Listen, loyalty is very touching but it's not the most important thing in your life right now. Gravity is." No, that is not the best line. This is.

Arnold then carries Sully over to a cliff and dangles him over the edge by one leg (look for the wire holding Sully up). After some more words are exchanged, Schwarzenegger says to Sully, "Hey Sully, remember when I said I'd kill you last?" Sully then says, "Yeah, you promised you'd kill me last." To which our governor responds, "I lied." He then drops Sully off the side of Mulholland Drive. Now, I know what you are saying. That is technically a "pre-mortem" one-liner. Right, except for the fact that just before Schwarzenegger pushes Sully's Porsche back onto its wheels, Rae Dawn asks, "What happened to Sully?"

"I had to let him go."

Brillant.

Add your own, comment, etc.

This actually comes from the blooper real for "Rush Hour 2". Chris Tucker looks out the window after the bad guy has fallen to his death and says "Damn! He ain't gonna be in Rush Hour 3!"

Dirty Harry: "What you have to ask yourself is, 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya ... punk?" :D

*scratch scratch*

"I think it's in Russian, I can barely make it out - it says, 'Front towards ene..' "

"was that a bullet?"
Perfect Dark - N64

"was that a bullet?"
Perfect Dark - N64
"No ... it was an enraged frakking female BEE with PMS!" :D

"I knew that someday, somehow, we'd both die. I just figured you'd be first."

"Look! The bleeding stopped! Uh oh."

"Why are you ducking? He couldn't possibly hit us in the head from there."

*scratch scratch*

"I think it's in Russian, I can barely make it out - it says, 'Front towards ene..' "

Where's that from?

10 posts and nobodys got this one yet..wow

you people are lucky im alive or this post wouldnt have any meaning or creatence

pulp fiction duh

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.


but the rush hour II one is amazing as well

"Why are you ducking? He couldn't possibly hit us in the head from there."

Are you sure you're not thinking of General Sedgewick's "They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance"?

In the Firefly episode War Stories, at the very end when Capt. Mal Reynolds is fighting Niska and Zoe and everyone is standing around:

Wash: Shouldn't we help him?
Zoe: No, this is something the Captain has to do on his own.
Mal: No it isn't.
Zoe: Oh, my mistake.

Assorted gunfire at Niska ensues from the crew. It's one of those delivery things.

Another Schwazenegger quote from [I]Commando[I], I think. After he fights his nemesis in a dingy basement, he finishes him by shoving a steel pipe through the bad guy's chest into a steam pipe. The villain ends up with a pipe sticking out of his chest that has steam pouring from it, and Ahnold says the one thing I remember from that movie:

"You need to let off some steam."

It's so cheesy, it's a classic

Resident Evil 2 one here.

This is when you kill Mr. X for the last time in Claire's B Game. You get the rocket laucher and aim it at him, at which point the game takes over and you go into a cutscene where Claire says "You LOSE, big guy!" before firing the RL, blasting Mr. X into gory chunks in beautiful mutiple camera angles.

From Cape Fear: "And would you tell (the police) to hurry? I just killed the intruder." Meanwhile, the intruder is looking at the woman with the gun and you can just see the fear in his eyes.

From the internet series, Red Vs. Blue...

Caboose speaks to the dead Battle Creek players after his beserker killing spree: I WILL EAT YOUR UNHAPPINESS!
YOUR TOAST HAS BEEN BURNED, AND NO AMOUNT OF SCRAPING WILL REMOVE THE BLACK PARTS!

Church, dying, to Tucker [strained]: I just want you to know... I always hated you. I always hated you the most.

Tex: I could just kill you now.
Church: You can't, I'm already dead bitch!
I love that show... :fluffle:

oops....
dont remember where its from...

Ah-nold to Sharon Stone in Total Recall: "Consider this a divorce."

"Why are you ducking? He couldn't possibly hit us in the head from there."
"What are you ducking for? ... They couldn't hit an elephant at this dist-" -last words of General John Sedgwick, 1864 ... right before he was shot in the head by an enemy sniper

O.K. It looks like i'll be the first one with a literary quote, Oscar Wilde, is reputed to have said on his deathbed, ''either this wallpaper goes or i do''. One of my favorites

Lit: "'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a
church-door; but 'tis enough,'twill serve: ask for
me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man." - Mercutio, act 3, scene 1, Romeo and Juliet - pre-mortem

post mortem - "I think he got the point." Sean Connery as James Bond in 'Thunderball' , after shooting an enemy with a spear fishing gun.

"BOOM, headshot!"

Don't know where it's from, though.

From the game GUN:
Hoodoo: (after you shoot him enough) No! I'm Hoodoo Brown!
Colton: (shoots him, causing him to fall out the window behind him) You were.

from the game Metal Gear Solid:
Snake: (after shooting a Hind D and watching it explode) That takes care of the cremation.

I drank WHAT?! -Socrates

i cant believe no ones said this one...its just classic (hopefully i get it right)
Simpsons:
*itchy robots are attack them and bart takes photo of robot where flash destroyes it*
Bart: [German accent] "Hey mouse...say cheese."
[snaps picture; Itchy robot collapses]
"With a dry, cool wit like that, I could be an action hero."

"As you said, he had a pressing engagement."
-James Bond in Goldfinger upon being shown the crushed remains of a Mafiosi's car.

My favorite comes form a Terry Pratchett novel. Though it's only my favorite because it relates to an argument I used to have with the uncreative when I played Dungeons and Dragons.

It related to why magical armor was eventually abandoned as a way of keeping soldiers alive. After a while the magic tended to wear off, and if it was broken it tended to explode. The narrator explains "the last words on many an ancient warlord's tomb were 'you can't kill me, I have Magic Argghhh!'"
