I took historical/epic to be either historical or epic, not that it has to be both. I think Star Wars qualifies as an epic for sure.

This probably appeals more to Tolkein nerd in me than the voters, but oh well.

Considering the movie opens with the same quote as the novel, I love the pick. It's a good one.

Thanks, I tried to save Comedy/Early 80s as my last category because it's really deep if you think about it.

I almost picked something from Animal House, but was deciding between "Toga" and "Food Fight".

It's Historical/Epic. It's not historical epic. Anything else?

Now that we're done, I think this is the best quote not taken

It's one of those great movies that didn't produce a great quote. That was the biggest strategy question in the draft, I'd say. Do you stick to actual great quotes or just grab a movie or two that people love and fill it in with a generic, forgettable line of dialog?

At any point did that movie involve snakes on any passenger plane?

Very quotable movie, of course, but I would have jumped on Stay classy, San Diego or the scotch line before grabbing this one.

I think ntndeacon nailed it. This was one of the first few quotes I thought of for Comedy, which I think may be the deepest category.

I don't know that I could argue with any of the three quotes, but I think I give the nod to 'That escalated quickly.' I use that quote all of the time in my day-to-day life. It's just so perfectly understated and accurate.

"Stay Classy" is the worst thing that's happened to the planet this century.
