5. "Top Gun": Val Kilmer to Tom Cruise: "You can be my wingman anytime."
There was fic about this, right?
None of it means a damn thing.

A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Aw, I sort of like "You had me at hello."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like it because it spawned 'You had me at "let's gear up."'
I think "You complete me." is much cheesier.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
10. "The Postman": A blind woman says to Kevin Costner: "You're a godsend, a savior." He replies: "No, I'm a postman."
I haven't seen the film, but I feel "They wore hats," which had me collapsing in giggles every time I saw the trailer, deserves at least an honorable mention.
1. "Titanic": Leonardo DiCaprio's "I'm the king of the world!"
Seriously? "I'm kind of the world!" is cheesier than "I will never let go"?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Seriously? "I'm kind of the world!" is cheesier than "I will never let go"?
Maybe there's an extra bonus cheese factor since James Cameron repeated the line when accepting his Oscar.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"I'm the king of the world" is so immediately identifiable -- I never hear it without thinking of Titanic. As someone who's never actually seen the movie, I had no idea "I will never let go" was from it. I think sticking out gains points.

5. "Top Gun": Val Kilmer to Tom Cruise: "You can be my wingman anytime."

Probably, but it's famous cos it's the line Tarantino misquotes (as "you can ride my tail anytime") in the gay Top Gun speech in Sleep With Me.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
"Top Gun": Val Kilmer to Tom Cruise: "You can be my wingman anytime."
Dude, that line is SO not cheesy! Because it's immediately followed by "Bullshit. *You* can be *mine.*"
signed,
Top Gun apparently played a larger role in my formative years than I thought

Brought the slash early, did it?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

"Love means never having to say you're sorry." IJS.
