Or something to that effect. Then Joe Pesci blows you away to the sounds of Sid Vicious.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's reversed: "Now I'm just another nobody. I get to live the rest of my life like a schnook."

These are my most memorable
Honey, I shrunk the Kids
"Wait! I get it!..... French Class!!!!.............. AHAHAHAHA" (for some reason, to this day, everytime i say "I get it," I follow it with "French Class")

Predator
-"What the hell ah yu?"
-"Whhhhuuaaattt the hhhhellllll arrrrrrrrrrrre yuuuuuuuuuuuuu?"

LOTR

"I'm Back"


But, I think the "I Hope" line in Shawshank is the greatest way to close a movie, ever.

Great selections. I love "A Clockwork Orange", "Clue" and "The Matrix".


I had to look this up to be sure of the exact quote but I liked it:

"One cannot choose but wonder. You see - he has all the time in the world."

Aww, man, now I'm reliving this moment in my head and sinking into a black despair. Thanks a lot. Fuck you, and fuck Peter Weir.

(I love that movie, great choice!)

You can't beat

What about all the parodies about the closing line at Rambo, "to see a friend" or something.

"We need to get Rusty a woman."
"I hear there's a woman's prison just down the road."


"But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club."


"OK. Drop and give me twenty."


"Thanks for getting my undies back."
"Thanks for coming over. "
"Thanks for coming to get me."
"Happy Birthday, Samantha. Make a wish."
"It already came true. "

Commonly misquoted as a closing line. It's actually Scarlet who has the last line, saying "After all.... tomorrow is another day..."

You can thank my wife for that.

I always liked "We're devils and black sheep... and really bad eggs... Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho..."

Lance Henrikson. Hard Target.


Oops.



(Might not have been the exact closing line, but close enough)

Actually, the closing line of THE PHANTOM MENACE is Boss Nass' 'Peace!!!' after he receives weird ball thing from Amidala at the parade.

"I'm pregnant." (perfect fucking screwfuck ending for The Way of the Gun, from the man who wrote "and like that...he's gone.").

"Goodbye Leo." (the whole last act is great in Miller's Crossing, and i would've said "What heart?" if the movie had ended there).

"Sounds good to me." (not exact, from Dawn of the Dead).

"...all things shining." (The Thin Red Line).

"...all i could think about was..." (fucking awesome ending to The Rules of Attraction, because who gives a fuck what you were thinking about).

I always liked that too, I just wish it hadn't immediately cut to that loud obnoxious music in the end credits, it spoiled the mood for me. A moment of silence or a more fitting song would have been appreciated.

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it.

or if you want to count the post-credits scene:

... You're still here? It's over! Go home!

Not as good as some of y'all's, but still a personal favorite (from The Winslow Boy):

Oh, you still pursue your feminist activities?

Oh yes.

Pity. It's a lost cause.

Do you really think so, Sir Robert? How little you know about women. Good-bye. I doubt that we shall meet again.

Oh, do you really think so, Miss Winslow? How little you know about men.
