aka List-People get it wrong AGAIN coz they dont agree with MEEEEEEE

(http://www.afi.com/tvevents/100years/quotes.aspx)

Pretty good list but lots of wtf stuff in there. Like "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." at #7. Who EVER quotes that line? Also, "Open the pod bay doors, HAL."

And, well... I wanna whine about some omissions but after a bit of research it turns out Tarzan never actually says "Me Tarzan, you Jane" and HAL doesn't exactly say "Do you want me to sing a song for you, Dave?"

How about we start a Top 100 miss-quoted Movie Quotes list?

#1: Play it again, Sam.(Casablanca, not)
correct line: "Play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By'"

#2: You call that a knife? (Crocodile Dundee, hi Scots!)
correct line: "That's not a knife... THAT'S a knife."

Okay, a few things:

Make my day? There's no way that's better than You've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?, or better the full quote.

Other than that, it's depressing to see the same frigging films show up time and time again more because of their status than of their quotable nature - I mean, do we need three or four quotes for The Graduate and The Wizard of Oz?

INCONTHIEVABLE THAT THEY WEREN'T ON THERE!

But no, not really actually. There are far worse crimes than not including The Princess Bride.

For example, where's old Brook's the world went and got itself in a big damn hurry or get busy livin' or get busy dyin' from The Shawshank Redemption.
Where's Malone's just like a wop, brings a knife to a gun fight or he puts one of yours in the hospital, you put one of his in the morgue - THAT's the Chicago way from The Untouchables.

So many missed.

Oddly enough, I paraphrase that line on many occasions.
