A Special Announcement

As our thousands of loyal readers know, each March brings out a very special event here at the NEZ: The Annual March Madness Madness.

The past two years have seen us crown the greatest cartoon character of all time (Homer) and the greatest TV theme song of all time (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). Both were the result of a crazy 64 team tournament, with all the upsets you can imagine (David the Gnome over Inspector Gadget?!?!).

After racking our brains over what to go with this year, we've decided on this year's contest...

Greatest Movie Quote of All Time

 

We know, this isn't going to be easy. There are thousands of quotes out there, and we need to get it down to a field of 64.

So that's why we need your help.

What movie quotes are your favorites? Which Dumb and Dumber quote do you find most hilarious (answer: all of them)?

Leave your favorites in the comments, and we'll make sure they at least take part in the conference championships.

-------------------

A few thoughts before we get started:

1. This is a contest held by The North End Zone, so the quotes will follow accordingly. Nothing from Gone With the Wind or Chinatown. This isn't the AFI Top 100 Movie Quotes. Hell, the #1 seed will likely go to something from Varsity Blues.

2. Points for more underrated quotes. For example, from Animal House: "You guys playing cards?" Awesome.

3. Don't worry about getting the quote exactly right. We'll figure that out later.

4. Dialogue is acceptable. For example, from Major League: Hayes: Willie "Mays" Hayes. I hit like Mays, and I run like Hayes. Lou: Well you may run like Hayes, but you hit like shit.

5. Whatever. There really aren't any rules.

T.S. Quint: But they're engaged.
Brodie: Doesn't matter, can't happen.
T.S. Quint: Why not? It's bound to come up.
Brodie: It's impossible, Lois could never have Superman's baby. Do you think her fallopian tubes could handle the sperm? I guarantee you he blows a load like a shotgun right through her back. What about her womb? Do you think it's strong enough to carry his child?
T.S. Quint: Sure, why not?
Brodie: He's an alien, for Christ sake. His Kyrptonian biological makeup is enhanced by earth's yellow sun. If Lois gets a tan the kid could kick right through her stomach. Only someone like Wonder Woman has a strong enough uterus to carry his kid. The only way he could bang regular chicks is with a kryptonite condom. That would kill him.

You might have to increase this to a 128 quote bracket, and since I follow the general rule that bigger is more awesome, that would be awesome.

And Old School provides a wealth of potential entries:

Mitch: True love is hard to find, sometimes you think you have true love and then you catch the early flight home from San Diego and a couple of nude people jump out of your bathroom blindfolded like a goddamn magic show ready to double team your girlfriend...

Mitch: Sorry, your seatbelt seems to be broken. What do you recommend I do?
Cab Driver: I recommend you stop being such a faggot. You're in the backseat.

Frank: Anything? Well, uh I guess I, deep down, am feeling a little confused. I mean, suddenly, you get married, and you're supposed to be this entirely different guy. I don't feel different. I mean, take yesterday for example. We were out at the Olive Garden for dinner, which was lovely. And uh, I happen to look over at a certain point during the meal and see a waitress taking an order, and I found myself wondering what color her underpants might be. Her panties. Uh, odds are they are probably basic white, cotton, underpants. But I sort of think well maybe they're silk panties, maybe it's a thong. Maybe it's something really cool that I don't even know about. You know, and uh, and I started feeling... what? what I thought we were in the trust tree in the nest, were we not?

Hokienomics is correct: bigger is always better.

Therefore, we will be doing conference championships. One quote from 64 movies will move on to the big dance, with a few exceptions (it would be un-American to not include at least 2 Dumb and Dumber quotes).
