NestorDRod Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Re: Top 10 Action Hero One-Liners OK, fine. You've gone and made me pull out the stops... When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail." - Jack Burton, Big Trouble in Little China - Jack Burton: We really shook the pillars of heaven, didn't we, Wang? Wang Chi: No bulls**t, Jack. Jack Burton: No bulls**t. - Again, from BTILC - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clsage Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Re: Top 10 Action Hero One-Liners From the Comic of 300 (haven't seen the mvie yet): Mede: This is Blasphemy! This is Madness! Leonidas: This is Sparta. While I have yet to read the graphic novel or see the film, I'll toss in one of the best "lines from an action film trailer" I have heard: Leonidas: "Enjoy your breakfast Spartans, for tonight we dine in hell !!!" And the classic historically referenced line, also from the battle of Thermopylae: Xerxes: "Our arrows will blot out the sun...." Leonidas:"Than we will battle in the shade." -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an emissary of Xerxes and I can't remember the Spartan's name...At least in the movie it wasn't, haven't read the graphic novel.
