Is there a film with more quotable lines than Withnail and I? I'd be surprised if there was.

'Screwballs'!

"In the meat locker!"
"Well, what better place to beat the meat?"

Repo Man. Withnail and I is the second worst film evah, after The Tall Guy (sorry phil)

HOW DARE YOU!?!?!?!

― katie, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Come on Mark, why is Withnail & I the 2nd worst film ever?

― DG, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Because there's one film that's even worse, presumably.

― Trevor, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes, The Tall Guy.

― mark s, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ha ha. Alright, I'll rephrase the question - what is so bad about Withnail & I?

― DG, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The Princess Bride

I nominate Velvet Goldmine for film with most Oscar Wilde quotes (that's not about him).

Withnail & I = pure genius!

I nominate Austin Powers purely on volume of quoting, especially considering how little merit the quotes have on their own.

"Heavy Metal Parking Lot" & "Vigilante Fury".

― doorag, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well, any John Waters movie. But "Female Trouble" and "Pink Flamingos", especially.

― Arthur, Friday, 7 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

PINK FLAMINGOS!!! "You can eat shit for all I care!", "There's two kinds of people in the world, my kind and assholes", "No one sends you a bowel movement and lives!", "Do my balls, mama!", "But WHAT if one day there's no more EGGS?!"

Up in Smoke. "Hope you're not busy for about a month", "It's on the front bumper", "I wasn't looking at your birthmark", "My dick has stagefright", "Not anymore!", "A shitload?", "Go with it!" With the exception of the latter two, the word "man" must end every phrase!
