WALKEN: "Is there something with 'D' that I didn't get?"
DOCTOR: "Yeah, DEAD!"

WALKEN: "In MY jungle you'd be just another a$$hole"

WALKEN: "When you grow up, you'll never be nothin' but a beggar"

(After Walken leaves the room) "Don't worry, he's expendable."

I like it when Marc Antony , crying out in grief, remarks, "Caesar"s spirit, aching for revenge with his mate, Ate (the Roman goddess of mischief and vengeance) by his side still smoking, coming hot and straight from Hell, exclaims with a monarch’s voice, "Cry ‘Havoc!’ and let slip the dogs of war". Bloody right, Tony. Oh! Wrong narrative. Oops. Sorry.

While Shannon and the documentary filmmaker are sitting at the bar, and get harassed by a government official:

Shannon: Who was that guy?
Filmmaker: Woody Woodpecker.

That always cracks me up, just so completely random.

Endean: A reconaissance mission is no good if you don't come back.
Walken: I always come back.

Walken: If everything goes as planned and the new regime is in place, we can get out anyway we want. If anything goes wrong, this will be our only escape route so be ready.
Boat Pilot: Don't worry I'll be here.
Walken: If you're not hope to hell I get killed.

Shannon to the boy watching TV in his apartment when telling his employers who to send the deneficiary payments to in case they get killed and they ask Shannon who his benificiary is.

"Hey you. What's your name?"

From the Hotel tour guide/driver that takes him out to the jungle to photograph birds: "Caw C-c--caw, Caw, C-caw Caw"

reply

"No no, don't take your coat off!"

I also love the bit where Walken is quoting the Latin names of the birds and the part where he says to the mining company lackey "Just so we understand each other, you're dead!"

reply

Craziest? Naw. But My favorite even having just watched it is the Brit video team producer, just pushed back into the hotel by the police. To the hotel desk man:
Producer: oh, ah, stupid question, but any messages for me?
Desk: Ah, the wireless is still out.
Producer: Is it expected in soon?

He was too cool. Such that I was totally shocked and angry when he got run down and killed. Haven't seen it since I was 14, and it was totally worth it.
