Favorite quote from Pool Movies

All the talk about The Hustler got the movie in my head.

I think my favorite line from there, maybe because of how Gleason looked when he said it is "Now I know why they call you Fast Eddie" after Eddie said "Let's make it $200 a game".

COM: The interaction between "Eddie" and Miz "Is this your first tournament?" "I did not deserve that" "Yes, yes you did" LOL I use those lines with my son all the time, especially when I see nervous parents watching their kids play and they yell and cheer after each game. I keep thinking "so, is this your first tournament?" hehe.

Poolhall Junkies: "I'm a millionaire, I lose 80 grand, I go get another 80 grand"

My favorite quote is from the Hustler and is actually not related to pool

Sarah and Eddie are having a picnic while his thumbs are healing.

Sarah Packard: I love you, Eddie.
Fast Eddie: You know, someday, Sarah, you're gonna settle down... you're gonna marry a college professor and you're gonna write a great book. Maybe about me. Huh? Fast Eddie Felson... hustler.
Sarah Packard: I love you.
Fast Eddie: You need the words?
Sarah Packard: Yes, I need them very much. If you ever say them I'll never let you take them back.


Gives me chills every time
 
Since I don't consider The Hustler a pool movie...

...my favorite quote comes at the best part of every pool movie I've ever seen. It says:

'The End'.
 
That big guy over there with the tie tack in his nose...that's Mozell, him we stay away from

"No Shit"
 
"A hundred and fifty? You go into a shoe store with $150, you come out with one shoe!"

Love that line.

As you can see, this saying has spread to the general public...

"No Shit"

And the one later "whatchu got in that thing?" "Doom".

Which actually is where ID got the name for their video game from if you guys did not know, they said because it would be Doom for the other video games.

Your man card has been suspended.
 
I'm shooting pool, Fats. When I miss, you can shoot.

That's my favorite line from the movie. It embodies the complete confidence that Fast Eddie has the second time he plays Fats, but this time it's not arrogance, it's just knowing that nothing is going to stop him from beating Fats this time around because he's a stone cold killer after losing everything else that mattered to him.
 
Not my favorite line, but certainly worthy of an honorable mention, from PoolHall Junkies:

"Did you guys know that the average penis size is X inches...

and that the average vaginal canal is X inches?

Therefore, in this country alone...there's over X miles

of unused virgin pu$$y out there".
:eek:

Charlie Burns: Quiet.

Fast Eddie: Yeah, like a church. Church of the Good Hustle.

Charlie Burns: Looks more like a morgue to me. Those tables are the slabs they lay the stiffs on.

Fast Eddie: I'll be alive when I get out, Charlie.
