It's not technically a "movie", but the best punchline for me is from Batman, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths: "There is a difference between you and me. We both looked into the abyss. But when it looked back at us... you blinked."
While everyone talked about Doc from Tombstone, Kurt Russell did have some of the best lines. Everything he said when facing the loudmouth in the bar could have been on this list. "are you going to do something, or just stand there and bleed?"
@@andynieuwenhuis7833 it means pull your pistol. Smoke wagon was old west slang for the 1873 Colt single action army revolver or "the gun that won the west".
Braveheart had the best lines. “And dying in your beds, many years from now...would you be willin’ to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance...just ONE chance...to come back here and tell our enemies, that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take… OUR FREEDOM!” Great stuff.

Got almost all of them.
Oh, I totally forgot the greatest line ever. Kurt Russell, TOMBSTONE: "You tell 'em I'm comin', and Hell's comin' with me. You hear, HELL'S COMIN' WITH ME!"
It may not be an action movie really but I used this one in some of the games I play: "You are an imperfect being, created by an imperfect being. Finding your weakness is only a matter of time."
There were a good number that shouldn't have made this list. But there is one that is notable by its exclusion; "Whot we've got heah...is failure...to communicate."
They TOTALLY missed Nicolas Cage's response to Sean Connery in The Rock. Connery: "Losers go home and whine. Winners f*ck the prom queen." -- Cage: "Carla WAS the prom queen."
Khan was quoting Ahab when he was on the back of Moby Dick and stabbing him with a spear before he died. In Lethal Weapon 2 there is another brilliant line after the SA diplomat has been killed and Danny Glover isasked what happened to him, he replies, "He's been decaffeinated."
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 you 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 you paid your dues, Jack? Yes, sir, the check is in the mail."
Rouge one had his best. When he boarded the Rebel ship at the end before he killed them. The sound of his breathing is all you need to hear to know your fucked. ^^
Outside of this video "In 30 seconds, you'll be dead, and I'll blow this place up and be home in time for Corn Flakes" - Total Recall, is probably the most hilarious action movie quote, but possibly my favourite, because it happens towards the end and really epitomises the whole movie.
Not a bad one, but I always liked: Billy the Kid: Hey, Peppin. I see you got Charley Crawford down there with you. Sheriff Peppin: Yeah, that's right, Bonney. We got a whole... (Billy shoots Charley) Billy the Kid: Hey, Peppin. Charley Crawford's not with you anymore Was funny then and is still funny today...
They missed two of the best: “Sit yo 5 dollar ass down fo’ I make change!” And “Whatever you’re reaching for better be a sandwich, cuz I’m gonna make you eat it!”
"Your worst nightmare" ---Rambo 3 "I'm getting too old for this shit" ---Lethal Weapon "Surf's up" & "Nailed them both" ---Lethal Weapon 2 "If you're going to shoot, shoot. Don't talk." ----The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly "He had to split" ---The Running Man "Rest in pieces!" & "I now pronounce you man and knife" ---Expendables 2 "I'm Batman!" ---Batman (1989) "Don't call me Junior!" ---Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade "Keep the change, you filthy animal" ---Home Alone
0:44 - Someone doesn't know their classic literature. That quote isn't just some random action movie line. That's a direct quote from Herman Melville's _Moby Dick._
You can pretty much sit there the entire video saying out loud "No"..."Yeah"...."No"...."No"...."Yeah"...I agree with most comments, some are truly memorable punchlines and some are just there because they noticed them from the same movie and decided to add them in.
Within this video, I have to give that title to 5:29 1:12 is weak and senseless but at least I can recognize it as a threat. Outside of this vid I will always remember Halle Berry's "What happens to toads that are struck by lightning"-line from the first X-Men as utterly anticlimactic
+Headbiter ~ The problem with Storm's line there is that they edited out the context. Several "You know what happens to...?" lines spoken by Toad were filmed that would have made Storm's line make much more sense, but they were entirely cut from the movie.
I just wanna know what was up with Bruce Willis and "Reindeer goat cheese pizza" in the 90's? I swear I heard him say it in like 3-4 movies (including Last Boyscout and Hudson Hawk).
Kurt russells' Soldier was a vastly underrated flick
Love that film.
Set in the same universe as Blade Runner and Alien. Love it.
His longest line in the whole movie (7 words): "I'm going to kill them all, sir." Love it.
You are underrated you piece of trash!
Your mama underrated you piece of trash
"Now I have a machine gun. Ho. Ho. Ho."
Oh, Alan Rickman. I'll miss your sinister deadpan monotone voice.
How do you miss a movie? Go and watch it.
@@dwightschrute3721 picking up some one-liners for Jim, Dwight?
My favorite Die Hard has always been "He's still alive."
"What?"
"Only John can drive someone that crazy."
You mean always ?
He won’t be joining us for the rest of his life 😂
"Forgiveness is between them and God. It's my job to arrange the meeting"
One of my favorite ones. :)
That IS a cold one. It works very well too.
"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubblegum" Love that line 🤣🤣
Once Upon a Time in the West: “You brought two horses too many.” Total badass line.
It's not technically a "movie", but the best punchline for me is from Batman, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths:
"There is a difference between you and me. We both looked into the abyss. But when it looked back at us... you blinked."
That’s fuckin bad ass
''I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me!'' Rorschach was a badass...
I have a difficult time seeing past actors these days. I just see a scrawny little guy pretending to be tough.
"Go with God."
"God's gonna sit this one out"
LOVE THAT SHIT
“It’s a hell of a thing, killing a man, you take away all he’s got and all he’s ever going to have“
- William Munny. Unforgiven
One of my all time favorite lines.
Classic
Kurt Russell in Soldier is so great. He barely speaks but its such a powerful performance...
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubblegum.
i want to know from what movie is that from, i wanna see the damn movie
They Live! www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/
i am here to kick bubblegum and chew ass but i am all out of ass
Actually, the movie "They Live" came out in 1988 and "Duke Nukem 3D" came out in 1996. Duke Nukem used a lot of action movie lines.
You are welcome sir. Interesting how many people will remember that line from the game... Kind of gives an idea of which one was more popular. :)
"Good... Bad.... I'm the guy with the gun."
Classic Ash lines never get old.
"I said I didn't have a use for one. I didn't say I didn't know how to use it."
"This ain't Dodge City and you ain't Bill Hickok." Quigley Down Under.
Schwarzenegger's lines will always stay classic!
+Sahin Düzgün "Stick around !"
Let off some steam, Bennet!
I lied.
I want your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle.
"See you at da party, Richtah!"
While everyone talked about Doc from Tombstone, Kurt Russell did have some of the best lines. Everything he said when facing the loudmouth in the bar could have been on this list.
"are you going to do something, or just stand there and bleed?"
"Skin that smokewagon and see what happens."
@@MennoSchottenJust Exactly what does that line mean; "skin that smokewagon "???? Ths
@@andynieuwenhuis7833 it means pull your pistol. Smoke wagon was old west slang for the 1873 Colt single action army revolver or "the gun that won the west".
"I said, throw down, boy!!!"
you missed one from unforgiven:
hackman, " you just shot an unarmed man "
Eastwood, " he should have armed himself "
@@ericschubel4147 .....I'm not suppose to die I'm building a house.
Also avengers , Stark : We have a hulk
Star trek : " ughhh ugh akkk
" What was that ?"
" I said I got your gun" *BANG*
It’s a hell of a thing killing a man. Take away all he’s got and all he’ll ever have. - Unforgiven
"We all have it comin, kid."
guess that punk wasn't feeling lucky at all :D
"You called down the thunder, well now you've GOT IT!". Best line ever.
How could you NOT have Tom Selleck's line from "Quigley Down Under"?! "I said I never had much use for one. Never said I didn't know how to use it."
Braveheart had the best lines.
“And dying in your beds, many years from now...would you be willin’ to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance...just ONE chance...to come back here and tell our enemies, that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take…
OUR FREEDOM!”
Great stuff.
"The Lord tells me I'll be ok. But He's pretty sure you're fooked. ARHAHAHA!"
"He wasn't right in the head."
alba gu brath!
"For England, James?"
"No... for me."
Bond at his coldest.
"Time to face destiny!"
"Time to face gravity"
The "you're locked in here with me" line is just about my all time favorite.
"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die."
Probably my favorite one.
"You just blew the element of surprise!"
*punch*

now yous can't leave. classic line.
It's not Star Trek III. It was Star Trek II.
"What we have here, is a failure to communicate." Cool Hand Like.
Oh, I totally forgot the greatest line ever.
Kurt Russell, TOMBSTONE: "You tell 'em I'm comin', and Hell's comin' with me. You hear, HELL'S COMIN' WITH ME!"
"Forgiveness is between them and god. It is my job to arrange the meeting." That quote always gives me the chills.
_"I'm going to kill them all, Sir."_
-Kurt Russell, _Soldier_
.
"Maybe you shoulda made 'em smart, instead of fast."
-Gary Busey, Soldier
“I ate a bowl of nails for breakfast this morning”
“So?”
“Without any milk”
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
You ended it with Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon (2 I believe) and you didn't add the best one: "I'm too old for this shit."
Exactly. There's also my favourite villain's line from the franchise "You would already be dead in you were in Hong-Kong".
"i come in peace"
"Yeah and you go in pieces"
Dark Angel from 1990
It may not be an action movie really but I used this one in some of the games I play:
"You are an imperfect being, created by an imperfect being. Finding your weakness is only a matter of time."
Arnie the king of One Liners
Not exactly an action movie: Adventures in Babysitting, but the delivery is perfect.
"Don't f*** with the babysitter."
Somehow I knew half of it would be Ahnold.
There were a good number that shouldn't have made this list.
But there is one that is notable by its exclusion;
"Whot we've got heah...is failure...to communicate."
And the other half is Stallone/Eastwood
This is gold after gold moments. So good.
City slickers
Curly-"I crap bigger than you."
Best line ever!
Excellent calibration 💯👍👍🤠
Well look at that, a Chuck Norris fact direct from the man himself: Chuck Norris doesn’t step on toes, he steps on necks.
And since it came from him, it's 100%verified. Best fact check of all time 😄.
"coz donuts... don't wear alligator shoes" LOOL had me rolling! Wicked list dude!
"I'm on a mission from god"
"Tell Him you failed"
From the movie Paul
"You wanna be a farmer?" ... "Here's a couple of ache-ers" :)
I never heard that one before - I laughed way too loudly at the punch line.
Oh, didn't get it till now.
Actually back in the days of the IMDB boards I had to explain that gag to a German user because the play on words didn't translate very well.
The best line “come with me if you want to live”, Terminator 2
The whole time I was waiting for Kurt Russell to explain what F.U.B.A.R. meant from 'Big Trouble In Little China'.
They TOTALLY missed Nicolas Cage's response to Sean Connery in The Rock. Connery: "Losers go home and whine. Winners f*ck the prom queen." -- Cage: "Carla WAS the prom queen."
Diplomatic immunity......
Pow..... It's just been revoked. Lol
Always love Ripley's line.
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I am all out of bubblegum... Words of a Winner...
Khan was quoting Ahab when he was on the back of Moby Dick and stabbing him with a spear before he died.
In Lethal Weapon 2 there is another brilliant line after the SA diplomat has been killed and Danny Glover isasked what happened to him, he replies, "He's been decaffeinated."
De-kaffer-nated.
Because de South Africans keep referring to blacks as kaffers.
Thanks for that! I shared it on my channel! Cheers!

And I found myself mouthing many of these punchlines as I watch this video, with a bonus of awkward stares from my colleagues afterwards. Damn.
Between Arnold and Clint there's a lifetime of one liners.
Also: "If I ever go to war - I promise your going to see something different."
well edited! great lines too!
I'm talking to an empty telephone... cause there is a dead man on the other end of this fucking line. - Heat
No ticket.
That the "no ticket" from Indiana Jones? :)
themaintenancedude That's correct
Will Tyson well played!
Don't call me, Junior
themaintenancedude no it's the "no ticket" from dogma. of course it's Indiana Jones
How could anyone forget Young Guns. Billy the kid line is the best. "I'll make you famous !"
Not a bad one, but I always liked:
Billy the Kid: Hey, Peppin. I see you got Charley Crawford down there with you.
Sheriff Peppin: Yeah, that's right, Bonney. We got a whole...
(Billy shoots Charley)
Billy the Kid: Hey, Peppin. Charley Crawford's not with you anymore
Was funny then and is still funny today...
These aren't punchlines, they're one-liners
Hank Wimbleton Well, there's often some punching involved, so they sorta qualify.
Hank Wimbleton Some of these are more than one line/sentence as well, but who cares?
and 89% are rubbish.
You forgot "You Shall Not Pass" The Lord of the Rings
5:09 Doughnuts don't wear alligator shoe. That's one of the best lines I've ever heard!
How can you miss the "Get to da choppa!" from the Predator (1987)?
"Are you gonna lay there, swallow that blood in your mouth. or are you gonna stand up, spit it out and go spill theirs?" Hardcore Henry
The best line ever was from Man on Fire when the he says "I'm gonna kill them" and nine inch nails starts playing in the background.
"I ain't got time to beed" is and always will be my favorite 80's macho action line.
"Ever danced with the devil in pale monlight?"
They missed two of the best: “Sit yo 5 dollar ass down fo’ I make change!” And “Whatever you’re reaching for better be a sandwich, cuz I’m gonna make you eat it!”
"Your worst nightmare" ---Rambo 3
"I'm getting too old for this shit" ---Lethal Weapon
"Surf's up" & "Nailed them both" ---Lethal Weapon 2
"If you're going to shoot, shoot. Don't talk." ----The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
"He had to split" ---The Running Man
"Rest in pieces!" & "I now pronounce you man and knife" ---Expendables 2
"I'm Batman!" ---Batman (1989)
"Don't call me Junior!" ---Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade
"Keep the change, you filthy animal" ---Home Alone
I cry tears of joy whenever these videos come out. Tears of manly joy... of course.
0:44 - Someone doesn't know their classic literature. That quote isn't just some random action movie line. That's a direct quote from Herman Melville's _Moby Dick._
You can pretty much sit there the entire video saying out loud "No"..."Yeah"...."No"...."No"...."Yeah"...I agree with most comments, some are truly memorable punchlines and some are just there because they noticed them from the same movie and decided to add them in.
Now I have to watch every movie in this again.
That was really enjoyable. I can't decide which movie I want to re-watch first.
4:49 OWWWWWWWW.. thats was unbelievable BADASS
These are great. And you can take that to the bank.
The blood bank.
What are you talking about "wish," I use these lines on a daily basis son.
Damn, I've seen almost all of those. And you kept the best one for last.
1:12-1:16
Hands down one of the WORST movie lines. Its embarrassingly stupid.
Within this video, I have to give that title to 5:29
1:12 is weak and senseless but at least I can recognize it as a threat.
Outside of this vid I will always remember Halle Berry's "What happens to toads that are struck by lightning"-line from the first X-Men as utterly anticlimactic
It was poorly filmed too
Especially ironic given they left out Ian McShanes AWESOME one liner which follows immediately afterwards 'Nobody fucks with my car'
You're wrong. It's absolutely hilarious. One of the funniest lines ever written!
Oh...
This list isn't about comedies? My mistake.
+Headbiter ~ The problem with Storm's line there is that they edited out the context. Several "You know what happens to...?" lines spoken by Toad were filmed that would have made Storm's line make much more sense, but they were entirely cut from the movie.
I member these.
So much good stuff!

Where was the "My name is Maximum Decimus Meridius ..." speech from "Gladiator"???
All are a distant 2nd behind Rowdy Roddy Piper’s classic.
I have come here...
Which one? "Either put on those glasses or start eating that trash can"?
"You shoot me in a dream, you better wake up and apologize."
What about "Jaws"?: "Smile you son of a BOOM"
Jaws isn't an action movie, it's a horror movie. There's some movies in this video that aren't even action movies (i.e. Fight Club).
Technically is a thriller.
Soldier ... soldiers deserve soldiers Maam
U have the right to remain silent but I wanna hear ya screaaaaaaaammmmmmmmm
"You have the right to remain silent,
*but I wanna hear you screaaam!*"

I just wanna know what was up with Bruce Willis and "Reindeer goat cheese pizza" in the 90's? I swear I heard him say it in like 3-4 movies (including Last Boyscout and Hudson Hawk).
" holy shit! We're getting beat up by the inventor of scrabble!"
