From the 1975 classic "A Boy and his Dog"
Dog to his boy (after enjoying his first meal in days):
". . . (belch) you got good taste in women"
I had read the Harlan Ellison short story and knew the line was coming, I fell out of my chair laughing.
An early Don Johnson film.

deco100,
It's from "When Harry Met Sally". Meg Ryan & Billy Crystal. GREAT scene.
tomwiii,
Is that from "To Have and To Hold?".
Michael is so full of hilarious lines, no way to pick a favorite.
Michael: "Just remember what John & Paul said...."
Group: "The Apostles?"
Michael: "No, the Beatles."
As Good As It Gets was also great for line. My favorite scene is when they first get in the car to drive to Maryland & Nicholson turns on the tape to have it blast out "YMCA". It was priceless!

From Five Easy Pieces w/Jack Nicholson when he was in a cafe trying to order some toast, the waitress told him they couldn't serve him only toast.
Waitress: Anything else?
Jack: Yeah, now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich and you haven't broken any rules.
Waitress: You want me to hold the chicken?
Jack: I want you to hold it between your knees.

Lawrence of Arabia - Lawrence slowly squeezes out candle flame between his thumb and finger tip. A fellow watching tried to do the same and burns the crap out of this finger tips and complains - "What is the trick"
"The trick," says Lawrence "is not to care."

"What we have here is a failure to communicate". Cool Hand Luke
I don't remember the exact line, but in Amadeus, there is a scene between Emperor Joseph and Mozart after the debut of an opera. Joseph wants the length cut and tells Mozart that "there are too many notes". Mozart replies, "But, sire, there are only as many notes as needed".

Eventer, you are right about tomwiii's line. It is from "To Have and To Hold".

M'brain is fuzzing out -- but Plan Nine From Outer Space is chock full o' good lines -- one of my favourites is just beyond my memory right now -- something like, "Inspector Clay is dead ... murdered ... and somebody's responsible...!"
Oh! And just about anything from South Park: The Movie -- LOL!

This is great, bringing back some terrific lines and movies I haven't thought of in years.
This is non verbal but Indiana Jones is what triggered the memory. He is confronted by a scimitar wielding, menacing guy who is advancing on him, he only has his whip in hand....expression changes...he whips out his pistol and pow!! Absolutely loved that for all the pictures you've seen where they throw down their gun and decide to fight to the death hand to hand...phooey no heroics just do what ya gotta do!

From Jerry MaGuire-
Jerry Maguire: I love you. You... complete me.
Dorothy Boyd: Shut up. Just shut up. You had me at "hello."
From Bull Durham-
Crash Davis: Well, I believe in the soul, the ****, the *****, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. [pause] Goodnight.
