Better than Reality

CNN has a pre-story (i.e. a story about news that hasn’t happened yet, and for that matter won’t really be news when it does) about the top 100 movie quotes. I’d like to nominate Trinity’s quote when she shoots the agent during the rescue of Morpheus:

Dodge this.

I think somebody needs to point out to the AFI that the line “Houston, we have a problem” was kinda by Tom Hanks, but was really by Jack Swaggert (and I believe is actually “Houston, we’ve had a problem here.”

Update: Yes, I know Trillian is an IM client, not a character in The Matrix. Honestly.

    I’d like to nominate almost the entire script from Withnail & I http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094336/quotes. Unfortunately the quotes page doesn’t mention “Monty you terrible c***” (am I allowed to say that here?)
