- decepticrat, on 03/07/2008, -3/+34I think these are all great contenders for best monologue. It's really hard to go wrong when your list is weighted heavy with Tarantino---the undisputed king of writing the most interesting few, and sadly, last moments of peoples' lives in my opinion. Think about it. Reservoir Dogs, Natural Born Killers, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction... every one of these movies are based around the very premise of interesting death.
For me, the best pre-death spiel ever written (also Tarantino) was delivered by the victim and not the killer. Dennis Hopper (Victim) to Christopher Walken (Murderer) in TRUE ROMANCE---in which Hopper displays an award winning nervous (almost zen-like) calm while explaining to Walken how he, being Sicilian, is an 'Eggplant.' - trapilales, on 03/07/2008, -1/+31Page starting to go down so here it is without the pointless blog commentary:
5) Pulp Fiction: Ving Rhames Gets Medieval on Hillbilly Boy's Ass:
Text: What now? Let me tell you what now. I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' n**gers, who'll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight. I'ma get medieval on your ass.
4) American Psycho: Christian Bale Shows It's Hip to Be Square
Text: Do you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercial and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humour...In '87, Huey released this, "Fore," their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
3) Pulp Fiction: Samuel L. Jackson Dares You To Say "What" Again:
Text: There's a passage I got memorized, seems appropriate for this situation: Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!"
2) There Will Be Blood: Daniel Day Lewis Drinks Your Milkshake
Text: DRAINAGE! Drainage, Eli you boy. Drained dry, I'm so sorry. If you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake. And I have a straw, there it is, my straw reaches across the room and starts to drink your milkshake. I drink your milkshake! I drink it up! Did you think your song and dance and your superstition would help you, Eli? I am the third revelation. I'm smarter than you! I'm not a false prophet, you sniveling boy! I AM THE THIRD REVELATION!
1) Ralph Fiennes Shows Us The Face of True Evil
Text: Today is history. Today will be remembered. Years from now the young will ask with wonder about this day. Today is history and you are part of it. Six hundred years ago when elsewhere they were footing the blame for the Black Death, Casimir the Great - so called - told the Jews they could come to Krakow. They came. They trundled their belongings into the city. They settled. They took hold. They prospered in business, science, education, the arts. With nothing they came and with nothing they flourished. For six centuries there has been a Jewish Krakow. By this evening those six centuries will be a rumor. They never happened. Today is history. - inactive, on 03/07/2008, -2/+31Pulp Fiction is the #1 for me!
- Jeepy, on 03/07/2008, -0/+20"First I'm gonna use you as a human shield, then I gonna kill this guard over there, with the Patterson trocar on the table. Then I was thinking about breaking your neck."
"And how are you going to do all that?"
"You know my handcuffs?"
"Hmm?"
"I picked them." - cRmtIMe, on 03/07/2008, -0/+15"***** you Lucky Charms."

- RyanOC, on 03/07/2008, -0/+12Remember Sully when I promised to kill you last? I lied! (Arnold Schwarzenegger in Commando)
- MrBabyMan, on 03/07/2008, -2/+12Clifford Worley: You're Sicilian, huh?
Coccotti: Yeah, Sicilian.
Clifford Worley: Ya know, I read a lot. Especially about things... about history. I find that ***** fascinating. Here's a fact I don't know whether you know or not. Sicilians were spawned by *****.
Coccotti: Come again?
Clifford Worley: It's a fact. Yeah. You see, uh, Sicilians have, uh, black blood pumpin' through their hearts. Hey, no, if eh, if eh, if you don't believe me, uh, you can look it up. Hundreds and hundreds of years ago, uh, you see, uh, the Moors conquered Sicily. And the Moors are *****.
Coccotti: Yes...
Clifford Worley: So you see, way back then, uh, Sicilians were like, uh, wops from Northern Italy. Ah, they all had blonde hair and blue eyes, but, uh, well, then the Moors moved in there, and uh, well, they changed the whole country. They did so much *****' with Sicilian women, huh? That they changed the whole bloodline forever. That's why blonde hair and blue eyes became black hair and dark skin. You know, it's absolutely amazing to me to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, that, uh, that Sicilians still carry that ***** gene. Now this...
[Coccotti busts out laughing]
Clifford Worley: No, I'm, no, I'm quoting... history. It's written. It's a fact, it's written.
Coccotti: [Laughing] I love this guy.
Clifford Worley: Your ancestors are *****. Uh-huh.
[Starts laughing, too]
Clifford Worley: Hey. Yeah. And, and your great-great-great-great grandmother ***** a *****, ho, ho, yeah, and she had a half-***** kid... now, if that's a fact, tell me, am I lying? 'Cause you, you're part eggplant.
[All laugh] - Markpdotcom, on 03/07/2008, -2/+12*****'s sake! Use Paragraphs!
- jeffinfremont, on 03/07/2008, -0/+10Listen kid, I'm not gonna ***** you, all right? I don't give a good ***** what you know, or don't know, but I'm gonna torture you anyway, regardless. Not to get information. It's amusing, to me, to torture a cop. You can say anything you want cause I've heard it all before. All you can do is pray for a quick death, which you ain't gonna get. - Mr. Blonde in Reservoir Dogs
- mjparker75, on 03/07/2008, -2/+11My name is inego?? montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.
- lucidapathy, on 03/07/2008, -1/+9Begging? So like if I beg for something it'll end? I'm confused.
;) - jjmdirector, on 03/07/2008, -0/+7how about this "Are going to kill me now.." " I killed you 10 minutes ago" (holding up empty syringe) " is there any pain " "no" "Thank you, Is it too late to say im sorry?" "its never too late" V for Vendetta
- aaaleman, on 03/07/2008, -1/+8Somebody drank your milkshake in the recent past. C'mon, just admit it. You're sour about that. It's ok =)

Basehead: Come on, man. You kmow I'm a little short. Hook me up, man.
O-Dog: *****, hook you up? ***** outta here.
Basehead: Man, I got these cheeseburgers. They some double cheeseburgers.
O-Dog: *****, I just ate. I just ate. If you ain't got no money, you just assed out.
Basehead: [as O-Dog was leaving] Come on, man. I'll suck your dick, man.
O-Dog: The ***** you just said?
Basehead: I said I'll suck your dick, man. Come on now.
O-Dog: [shoots basehead] Suck on that, you bitch-ass trick.
[to A-Wax]
O-Dog: Anybody want a hamburger?
A-Wax: I don't want no ***** hamburger.
O-Dog: I got it from that basehead.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107554/quotes - Sryden42, on 03/07/2008, -1/+7Am I the only one who prefers this quote from American Psycho? I suppose they had to just pick one.
Patrick Bateman: Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your *****. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite. - korbink, on 03/07/2008, -1/+615-20 minutes? You might want to rewatch the movie.
- logicalnoise, on 03/07/2008, -0/+5as a sicilian, I have to say that scene is also one of my favorites. Easily the best in the movie.
- steveboutin, on 03/07/2008, -0/+4arnold FTW.
- whiskeymb, on 03/07/2008, -0/+4Wouldn't be nearly as good of a movie if two of the best characters we're gunned down right away by cops...
"Say 'what' again.. I dare y..." POP POP POP ... and scene. - alk509, on 03/07/2008, -0/+4This one from "The Dark Side Of the Heart" is #1 in both awesomeness and hilarity:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lWyKm6dqCk - oohkumar, on 03/07/2008, -0/+4Chronicles of Riddick - Death by Teacup Scene
Guard: "Is there a name for this private little world of yours, huh?"
Guard:" What happens there when we don't just run away?"
Guard: You'll kill us... with a soup cup?"
Riddick: "Tea, actually."
Guard: "What's that?"
Riddick: "I'll kill you with my teacup."
Two seconds later guard suffers a 'death by teacup' - classic scene! - masterkenobi, on 03/07/2008, -0/+4"Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last?"
"That's right, Matrix. You did."
"I lied." - ahoyhoy, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3What about the ending scene of V for Vendetta, where he says something to to the tune of "Now your all going to fire your guns at me and hope that by the time your finished, I'll be dead." then "This is going to end with my hands around your neck as you die."
- lordsteve, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3You win.
- logicalnoise, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3what's odd about true romance is that QT wrote it in a non linear format. You weren't supposed to know the entire backstory of the main two charectars before the last quarter of the movie. Meaning this scene would have been closer to the end and even more powerful. But Tony scott still did a pretty good job and QT said himself that he think Tony's vision of his script was perfect.
- Zihuatanejo, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3The Operative: I want to resolve this like civilized men. I'm not threatening you. I'm unarmed.
Malcolm Reynolds: Good. (Shoots him in the chest)
Technically neither a murder nor a monologue, but I still like. - inactive, on 03/07/2008, -2/+5The word is '*****' - The writer needs to stop being such a pussy!
- Namco, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3Because it's Inglewood? Even if a tenant did call the cops, it'd take them an hour to get there.
- echotech, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3You can say anything as long as it's in quotations. "Bitch"
- jasmar, on 03/07/2008, -1/+4that's a nice mirror
- pegleg79, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3Not a monologue, but love these:
Little Bill Daggett: Well, sir, you are a cowardly son of a bitch! You just shot an unarmed man!
Will Munny: Well, he should have armed himself if he's going to decorate his saloon with my friend.
Little Bill Daggett: You'd be William Munny out of Missouri. Killer of women and children.
Will Munny: That's right. I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you did to Ned. - BohicaTwentyTwo, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3"Do you know who I am?"
"I give up."
"I am the Antichrist. You tell all the angels in heaven that you never saw evil more singularly personified than as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti..." - MikeFallopian, on 03/07/2008, -0/+3Tyrell: Would you... like to be upgraded?
Batty: I had in mind something a little more radical.
Tyrell: What... what seems to be the problem?
Batty: Death.
Tyrell: Death, ah, well that's a little out of my jurisdiction. You...
Batty: I WANT MORE LIFE, *****! - >mark, on 03/07/2008, -1/+4Videos:

- Vash265, on 03/07/2008, -0/+2Honestly, TR is one of the only Tony Scott movies I can stand. After that all he's ever done is that stupid ass sepia-filter with manic camera shots. TR was amazing though, and I still love that Hans Zimmer Marimba intro to death.

- ZeroSumDivide, on 03/07/2008, -0/+2Better and more appropriate would be this, even though it's Agent Smith that gets axed, and Neo's fate is left ambiguous:
"Why, Mr. Anderson? Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more that your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Yes? No? Could it be for love? Illusions, Mr. Anderson. Vagaries of perception. The temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, Mr. Anderson. You must know it by now. You can't win. It's pointless to keep fighting. Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist?" - ramunenke, on 03/07/2008, -1/+3what about the prayer from the boys in boondock saints

- mrtrevin, on 03/07/2008, -0/+2There is the fact that it's a movie, but I also don't think people call the police after every brief loud noise they here. A gun fired indoors is deafening in that room, but you'd be surprised at how quiet it is from the next floor or even on the other side of a wall.
