"Trading Places" is the most quotable movie of all time. Waaaaaay back when I was in high school, I had a job at a local soda pop shop. My boss and I would endlessly quote this movie. Half of our conversation to our customers was bits and pieces of one-liners. Some of my favorites:
John Belushi: "Monkey? MONKEY????? I'm a FUCKING gorilla, YOU CLOWN!!!!"
"Who been puttin' their KOOLS out on my floor?? WHO HAS BEEN PUTTIN' THEIR KOOLS OUT ON MY FLOOR?????"
*Eddie Murphy is pretending to be a crippled blind man to con people for money*
"Hey baby, whats happenin? I know what you thinkin baby, once you have a man with no legs, there's no goin back... " *woman, disgusted, walks away* "We can make it baby! Me and you!... Ya BITCH!
"When I was growing up and we wanted a jacuzzi, we had to fart in the bath tub."
"You was in the tank last night, braggin' on yo' limousine. You're the muthafucka I was gunna call!". Followed by the best line in the film, "YEAH.".
*with a refined accent* ""Muthafucka? Moi??"
"Merry New Year!!!" "Happy. It's Happy New Year." "AH-HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Thank you for correcting my English which STINKS!"
"You beatin' 10 cops. How come I don't see no bruises on you?"
"'Cause I'm a karate man, see! And a karate man bruises on the inside! They don't show their weakness. But you don't know that because you're a big Barry White looking motherfucker!"
*Eddie Murphy accidentally breaks an expensive vase*
Eddie: Hey, sorry about that.
Randolph Duke: It's perfectly alright William. It was your vase.
Eddie: That was a cheap vase, right? That was a fake?
Randolph Duke: I believe we paid $35,000. But if I remember correctly, the insurance company valued it at $50,000. You see, Mortimer? William has already made us $15,000.
[Coleman, Mortimer, Randolph, and Eddie Murphy start laughing]
Eddie: You want me to break something else?
Randolph Duke, Mortimer Duke, Coleman: NO!
