“Leave the gun, take the cannoli.”
The scene: Two men have been sent to kill somebody after they attempt to overpower their boss. They leave once the deed is done. The three-time Oscar- winning “The Godfather” film is still considered a classic, even after all these years.
The movie was released in the early 70s but is still reminisced about today. Richard Castellano, who played Peter Clemenza in this film, is the guy who could not resist saying this unforgettable line. But, it’s a good thing he did, because it curated one of the most popular quotes from one of the most popular films of all time.
Groundhog Day
“Ned Ryerson! I have missed you.”
The scene: Phil encounters Ned on the street and is so happy to see him that he hugs him indefinitely. In one of the movie scenes, completely unannounced, Murray decides to say, “Ned Ryerson! I have missed you,” and hugs him for a very long time.
He continues to say, “I don’t know where you’re headed. Can you call in sick?” Tobolowsky was thrown entirely off and looked awkward; he got away as quickly as possible. When the scene was over and the director re-watched it, he decided to leave it since Murray had carried it out so well.
Weird Science (1985)
“How about a nice greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray?”
The scene: Chet finds out his little brother and his friend are drunk. In the 1985 John Hughes sci-fi film "Weird Science," scientists use computers to create a stunning woman.
But, unfortunately, the two high school geeks have a nemesis – Chet (Bill Paxton), Wyatt’s older brother. So, in one scene where Chet finds the kids trashed and one of them feeling queasy from the drinking, he says, “How about a nice greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray?” Paxton revealed that his father used to say this to him and his brother when they’d been drinking too much.
The Empire Strikes Back
"I know."
The scene: Darth Vader is about to split up Han and Leia. Before he does, they lean in for a meaningful kiss. After this, Leia says she loves Han. This is one of the most well-regarded Star Wars movies in the entire series. Some say it’s been rated the best since it’s the darkest one of the series.
Others say it’s due to the fact that there’s never a dull moment. It was the second movie released of the lot in 1980. Even with the success of the new movies, we will never forget the impact the classics had on film lovers around the world. The love story between Han and Leia captured all of our hearts.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
*Fall, roll, flourish!*
The scene: This line is delivered when we first see Willy Wonka in the film. He is greeting the kids that won the golden tickets to his chocolate factory. When he makes his way to the gate, he falls forward and rolls on the red carpet.
Gene Wilder brilliantly performs this role and actually made up many defining moments on the spot while filming, including this iconic entrance. He immersed himself into his character, which ultimately made this film so well-received. In the end, the 1971 film got an Oscar nomination and a few other awards and nominations behind its name.
