This kind of thread is a lot of fun, launchcruiser, but it really doesn't belong in the "Help" section, it's more of a "Cafe" kind of thing - so that's where I've moved it.

My favorite quote, off the top of my head, is from Living Legend:

Cylon: Sir, if I may...

Baltar: Not now, I want to see the destruction of the last battlestar.

Cylon: I really think you should take a look at the other battlestar.

I am

"Amnesia, what a pretty name.", Apollo said that one ..........In one of the Terra eps ......

Can't remember WHICH ONE

I loved the Favorite BSG lines thread - it was hysterical. So many lovely memories! But it's cool to remember other shows as well, so this is great...

Star Trek IV had some great Spock Lines - the whole Colorful Metaphor exchange was just priceless. I also liked in Relics - don't remember the exact words - but when Scott is teaching Geordi "How can you expect to be a miracle worker if you tell him the truth about how long it will take!" - something along those lines.

Was Real Genious considered SciFi? Val Kilmer's "Why is that thing on your head" - "Because if I wear it anywhere else it chafes" is still recited regularly in my home. Most of the lines from that movie are recited regularly in my home... if you haven't seen it, please do - you'll laugh yourself silly.

Then there was Star Wars... "Laugh it up Fuzzball" comes to mind.

Sigh - Y'know, I've always loved SciFi - nearly any flavor. BSG was always my favorite, but there was a lot of other good stuff out there, too.

My favorite, Col. Tigh to Apollo and Starbuck...

"when Adama sees these, he's gonna go Crazy..."

My fave is from Star Trek, where Kirk and Spock say something along these lines...
"The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few, or the one."

Also I like it when Starbuck says, "With troops like these who needs cylons".
Can"t remember what episode it is from...............

I think that was Gun on Ice Planet Zero - when they were taking all the convicts down to blow up the guns on the Cylon planet. The prisoners themselves just... weren't getting along.

My favorite TS quote was a small throw-away punch line, but it was good.
Scotty is working hard at drinking the alien under the table. They have each consumed a large quantity of many things, and the supply is running low. Scotty remembers something he has been saving for a special occasion, and he pulls a fancy bottle of something out of a cabinet. The alien looks baffled.
Alien: "What is it?"
[long pause while Scotty holds up the bottle and examines it]
Scotty: "It's green!

ROTFL - I actually remember that line! Scotty was always my favorite - and not just for the accent, either. He just seemed to be the... practical one. Probably why I like the Tyrol character so well - the one getting the work done without getting much of the glory. If I heard it once, I heard it a million times... "I'm given her all I got, Captain!"
