I've always been partial to the speech given by Vinz Klortho, keymaster of Gozer when asked by Igon who Gozer exactly is:

Gozer the Traveller will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldronaii the Traveller came as a large and moving Torb. Then during last of the Meketrex supplicants they chose a new form for him, that of a giant Sloar! Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of a Sloar that day I tell you!

I wonder what Vinz might have added to this speech if 1000 years from now he was again asked about Gozer:

Then in the year 1986 when our prisioners were released, the traveller's form was again chosen; that of a giant beast made entirely of marshmellow! Many subcreatures were crushed and undone on that day! Hail Gozer, Volguus Zildrohar!

I've long thought Pvt Hudson had the best lines in Aliens. "Well that's it. TILT! Game Over! We're dead."

The quote is actually:

"Come with me if you want to live" first uttered by Kyle Reese in the original Terminator movie. He says it to Sarah Connor when they first meet.

It's what started it all. And it's been used in every Terminator movie ans subsequent TV series since. I, for one, love it when a line - a signature line - is used in such a manner. Unlike other signature lines this one is used by various characters within the same context.

"May the force be with you" is generic in nature. "Live long and prosper" is mainly used by one character. So is "resistance is futile." Ditto with "who you gonna call," and the aforementioned "I'll be back."

Funny thing is that "come with me, if you want to live," is used by one human and then 3 terminators. But each with significant meaning for the humans in peril. It is, for me, an iconic line. The storytellers in each of the movies and in the TV series were wise to use it.

Yes, I agree. I love Galaxy Quest. And then got their own show renewed.

One of my favorite lines is "Whoever made this episode should DIE!"

"Did you ever even WATCH the Show?" Security Chief "Roc" Ingersol played by Guy Fleegle played by Sam Rockwell, speaking to the cast about all the oblivious mistakes they are making.
