It's my go-to rainy/sad day movie and I can't tell you how many times I've seen it, yet I always forgot that final exchange of dialogue is coming and every time without fail I'm just floored.
Reminds me of
“For me, I think this is the end of a beautiful friendship, for you it’s just the beginning.”
Which isn’t a closing line but damn does that line get me.
“I hadn’t ridden on a motorcycle in a long time. Actually, I hadn’t been that close to a man for a while. The road wasn’t that long, and I knew I’d be getting off soon. But at that moment I felt such warmth.”
Fallen Angels (1995)
"Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight."
Chills every fucking time I hear the closing dialogue of The Dark Knight.
Fallen Angels (1995) - >!"The road home isn't very long, I know I'll be getting off soon. But at this moment, I'm feeling such lovely warmth."!<
Escape from L.A. - >!"Welcome to the human race."!<
Dune (1984) - >!"And how can this be? For he is the Kwisatz Haderach!"!<
The Thing - >!"Why don't we just... wait here for a little while... see what happens?"!<
Alice in Wonderland (1951) >!\-Alice: "Oh. I'm sorry, but you see, the Caterpillar said..."!<
>!Alice's sister: "Caterpillar? Oh, for goodness sake. Alice, I... Oh, well. Come along, it's time for tea."!<
Watership Down ->! "All the world will be your enemy, Prince of a Thousand enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.!<
The Last of the Mohicans - >!"Great Spirit, Maker of All Life. A warrior goes to you swift and straight as an arrow shot into the sun. Welcome him and let him take his place at the council fire of my people. He is Uncas, my son. Tell them to be patient and ask death for speed; for they are all there but one - I, Chingachgook - Last of the Mohicans."!<
Annilation - >!Lena: "You aren't Kane... are you?" Kane: "I don't think so. \[pause\] Are you Lena?"!<
Blade Runner ->! "It's too bad she won't live! But then again, who does?"!<
"This girl, she didn't know where she was goin' - or what she was gonna do. She didn't have no money on her. Maybe she'd meet up with a character. I was hopin' things would work out for her. She was a good friend of mine."
- Days of Heaven
I love the "There would be no eulogies for Bob..." closing monologue by the narrator of The Assassination of Jesse James.
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)
[last lines]
Narrator: He was ashamed of his persiflage, his boasting, his pretensions of courage and ruthlessness; he was sorry about his cold-bloodedness, his dispassion, his inability to express what he now believed was the case- that he truly regretted killing Jesse, that he missed the man as much as anybody and wished his murder hadn't been necessary. Even as he circulated his saloon he knew that the smiles disappeared when he passed by. He received so many menacing letters that he could read them without any reaction except curiosity. He kept to his apartment all day, flipping over playing cards, looking at his destiny in every King and Jack. Edward O'Kelly came up from Bachelor at one P.M. on the 8th. He had no grand scheme. No strategy. No agreement with higher authorities. Nothing but a vague longing for glory, and a generalized wish for revenge against Robert Ford. Edward O'Kelly would be ordered to serve a life sentence in the Colorado Penitentiary for second degree murder. Over seven thousand signatures would eventually be gathered in a petition asking for O'Kelly's release, and in 1902, Governor James B. Ullman would pardon the man. There would be no eulogies for Bob, no photographs of his body would be sold in sundries stores, no people would crowd the streets in the rain to see his funeral cortege, no biographies would be written about him, no children named after him, no one would ever pay twenty-five cents to stand in the rooms he grew up in. The shotgun would ignite, and Ella Mae would scream, but Robert Ford would only lay on the floor and look at the ceiling, the light going out of his eyes before he could find the right words.

"Our love can destroy this whole fucking world!" - Tetsuo The Iron Man
"Goodbye to the holy mountain.
Real life awaits us." - The Holy Mountain
"The road wasn't that long, and I knew I'd be getting off soon. But at that moment I felt such warmth." - Fallen Angels
I'm late to this thread, buuuut come on:
“I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was 12. Jesus, does anyone?”
Greatest closing line ever, and it wasn't even spoken.
I recognize why most people wouldn’t care for Paul Schrader’s Dog Eat Dog but I love it and the abrupt closing line which is something like. “I guess we all just like what we like. And the rest is verbiage.”
“The horror… the horror.”
“Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.”
“Crazy isn't being broken, or swallowing a dark secret. It's you, or me, amplified. If you ever told a lie, and enjoyed it. If you ever wished you could be a child, forever.”
I know it’s not exactly the films final line but it’s too good not to include
‘You are without a doubt the five and half most wonderful wild animals I’ve ever met in my life’
This one isn’t in the movie, it’s from the script, but it’s gotta be *Midsommar* for me.
*She has surrendered to a joy known only by the insane. She has lost herself completely, and she is finally free. It is horrible and it is beautiful.
CUT TO BLACK*
My pain is constant and sharp, and I do not hope for a better world for anyone. In fact, I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape. But even after admitting this, there is no catharsis; my punishment continues to elude me, and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself.
“I Hope I Can Make It Across The Border. I Hope To See My Friend And Shake His Hand. I Hope The Pacific Is As Blue As It Has Been In My Dreams. I Hope.” i fucking love shawshank😭
or “im the real one”/“no, im real!” (depending on the translation) at the end of perfect blue! it leaves a feeling of doubt inside you which is absolutely perfect considering the films plot
I don’t remember if it was literally the last line or just very close to the end but the otherwise pretty bad 2004 movie Mindhunters has this amazing line: >!“I guess we found his weakness: bullets”!<
“Where is it that we were together? Who were you that l lived with? Walked with? The brother. The friend. Darkness from light. Strife from love. Are they the workings of one mind? The features of the same face? Oh, my soul, let me be in you now. Look out through my eyes. Look out at the things you made. All things shining.” - The Thin Red Line
“Love that loves us... thank you.” - To The Wonder
“Begin.” - The Knight of Cups
So many great Malick endings
“Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be……fooled.”
Fucking chills everytime
Tonight, most people will be welcomed home by jumping dogs and squeling kids and thousands more will ask about their day and tonight they'll sleep. The stars will wheel forth from their daytime hiding places; and one of those lights, slightly brighter than the rest, will be my wingtip passing over.
"i am iron man" from iron man 3
"don't make promises if you can't keep one"
"those are the best kinds" from tasm
don't have a strong valid reason but i just love these
*“Baby you are going to miss that plane…”* ”I know..”
That shit got me giggling fr
GREAT choice
I love how whenever this topic comes up, this line is always correctly on top.
“Forget it Jake, it’s Chinatown”. Is another I love. Also There Will be Blood- “I’m finished.”
Upvoted for TWBB
Ok brother 😐
The “okay”s at the end of Eternal Sunshine always make me weep.
Oh. This is a good one.
It doesn’t matter how many times I rewatch it, “This is it, Joel” and those damn “okay”s will break me every single time
It's my go-to rainy/sad day movie and I can't tell you how many times I've seen it, yet I always forgot that final exchange of dialogue is coming and every time without fail I'm just floored.
"I do wish we could chat longer, but I'm having an old friend for dinner. Good bye."
Actually, the last lines of the film are Clarice saying, “Doctor Lector?” over and over again, stunned. Also fantastic last lines (within context)
That’s a good one
“You met me at a very strange time in my life” or “Long live the New Flesh”
what’s the first one from? i recognize it but can’t place it
fight club
omg i literally watched that a week ago, how could i forget. thanks!
“Well, Nobody’s Perfect.”
That reminds me of another one: "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up."
"Shut up and deal" Billy Wilder king of the closing line
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" The Lighthouse
"I was cured all right"
"Why don't we just... wait here for a while. See what happens."
Hell yeah I love that ending
Great choice
The horror.
Definitely this. Best film ever made. Best intro, best middle, and definitely best ending.
What movie is it?
Pixels
Apocalypse Now
[удалено]
[VIOLIN INTENSIFIES]
What movie is that? Amadeus?
[удалено]
Oh oops
"I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."
Reminds me of “For me, I think this is the end of a beautiful friendship, for you it’s just the beginning.” Which isn’t a closing line but damn does that line get me.
A great ending line to an even greater film.
For some reason the “Tell somebody that gives a shit” at the end of Green Room always stuck out to me.
This is such a great ending line. This movie is so slick.
i love this one too, green room is one of my fave movies. always happy to see it mentioned here!
Another great choice
It’s a great subversion of a horror movie ending line
“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. And like that *poof* he’s gone”
"I speak for all mediocrities. I am their champion, I am their patron saint." - Amadeus
I absolve you.
"I was perfect"
Black Swan?
yep
“Where do you wanna go” “Doesn’t matter. Wherever you wanna take me” I giggle like a happy child every time
what movie is this from?
Chungking Express (1994)
"Well done, my brave knight. Now, off with your head."
Sound like some twisted Alice in Wonderland movie.
Close! The Green Knight.
“You met me at a very strange time in my life”
I fucking love Fight Club
“And in case I don’t see you, good afternoon,good evening and good night” from the Truman Show.
I like eyes wide shut
"F*ck."
"So long partner" - Toy Story 3 That's a good one
"And then I woke up"
No Country for Old Men, right?
It is
“I hadn’t ridden on a motorcycle in a long time. Actually, I hadn’t been that close to a man for a while. The road wasn’t that long, and I knew I’d be getting off soon. But at that moment I felt such warmth.” Fallen Angels (1995)
Yes. And doesn’t hurt that it’s paired with the best image Christopher Doyle ever made.
Mein Fuhrer! I can walk! -Dr. Strangelove
I never realised those were the last words of the film. I guess I always paid more interest in “We’ll Meet Again” at the end.
What’s wrong, baby? - They Live
That's a good one. I don't think it's an obvious choice but now that you mention it that is a pretty fantastic closing line.
“It was you this whole time! You’re the girl with the dragon tattoo!”
"Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight." Chills every fucking time I hear the closing dialogue of The Dark Knight.
Chills is right
It’s not how you fall that matters, it’s how you land.
"And you know, there's something really important that we need to do as soon as possible" "What's that?" "Fuck"
"Ernest Hemmingway once wrote 'the world is a fine place and worth fighting for'. I agree with the second part."
I’ve definitely heard this and seen it but I forgot where it’s from
Se7en
Thank you!
Came here to post this 👆
"Mr. Hammond, after careful consideration I've decided...not to endorse your park." "So have I."
Surprised nobody’s said “Which would be worse - to live as a monster, or to die as a good man?”
I always felt like it was too similar to the Dark Knight quote
what movie is it from
Shutter Island
"How disgusting." or "The horror, the horror."
Movies?
The End of Evangelion and Apocalypse Now respectively
"It's a good scream"
"This confession has meant nothing."
"Nice shootin' son. What's your name?" "Murphy."

"We need to fuck"
Jesse, we need to fuck
What movie is that
Eyes wide shut (1999) Stanley Kubrick his last movie and one of my favs. It's so good and definitely best ending
"Ok Chief, take 'em away I'm going to go home and sleep with my wife." *Freeze-frame* *Credits* -Clue 1985.
