    My favorite ending line isn't even spoken. It's Walter Matthau, at the end of 1974's "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three." He's just closed the door on a suspect, hears a sound, and gives a look as he opens the door again. The look he gives tells you he's solved the crime and the rest is just details. It's the most creative last ten seconds of a movie ever, and my favorite closing line.
    I also loved the final line in the Clint Eastwood movie "Unforgiven." Again, it is not spoken, but is presented in written form, with a quiet guitar motif playing over a scene of Clint Eastwood removing his hat and paying his last respects to his buried wife: "Some years later, Mrs. Ansonia Feathers made the arduous journey to Hodgeman County to visit the last resting place of her only daughter. William Munny had long since disappeared with the children... some said to San Francisco where it was rumored he prospered in dry goods. And there was nothing on the marker to explain to Mrs. Feathers why her only daughter had married a known thief and murderer, a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition." The last spoken line is pretty good too: "You better bury Ned right. You better not cut up nor otherwise harm no wh*res. Or I'll come back and kill every one of you sons of b!tches."
    I agree with others who mentioned Princess Bride's "As you wish," spoken by Peter Falk to his grandson as the movie closes. As a man with 11 grandchildren, that one pulls at my heartstrings every time.

    Small correction on Stand By Me: Chris Chambers died in a fast food restaurant, not a bar.
    "Chris did get out. He enrolled in the college courses with me and, although, it was hard, he gutted it out like he always did. He went on to college and, eventually, became a lawyer. Last week, he entered a fast food restaurant. Just ahead of him, two men got into an argument. One of them pulled a knife. Chris, who had always made the best peace, tried to break it up. He was stabbed in the throat. He died almost instantly."

    1) Apocolypse Now is one of my favourite movies but that line is lifted directly from the source material, Joseph Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness.'
    2) 'We are such stuff as dreams are made on' is a quote from Shakespeare's 'The Tempest.'

      I think in the majority of movies based on an existing source (no original screenplay) have last lines from a source., e..g., "Gone With the Wind." And LOTR. But they still count!

      Not the last line, but Apocalypse Now gave us "I love the smell of napalm in the morning!"

    #11 and #10: "Stand by Me" and "Shawshank Redemption" are both based on Stephen King novellas in "Different Seasons." "Stand by Me" is "The Body, Fall of Innocence" and "Shawshank Redemption" is "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, Hope Springs Eternal". The final lines of both movies perfectly fit the theme of the stories.

      agreed...although it not the last line...it's "Thank you boys, thank you" by Robin Williams. Still great though! An underrated masterpiece of a flick!

    I think what makes Goodfellas so great is that Ray liotta brings a lot of levity you just don't see by actors portraying gangsters. Shit look at de niro in the same movie. They go the tough route but he goes the everyman likeable route and combined in the music and some of the shot choices, it really is one of the best movies ever.

    Jack Burton in big trouble in little China.
    "You just listen to ole Jack Burton in the pork chop express". " On a dark and stormy night when the thunder is crashing and the rain is coming down in sheets thick as lead. When a 7' maniac taps the back of your favorite head against a bar room wall and looks you crooked in the eye and asks If you've paid your dues". You know what Jack Burton says "You look that big sucker back straight in the eyes, have you paid your dues Jack"?
    "Yes sir the check is in the mail".
    That one is preceded by another classic. When Jack says.
    "You guys stay here. Hold tight sit back keep the home fires burning, and if we're not back by Dawn call the president".

      You've conflated the opening and ending. The ending goes: You just listen to the Pork-Chop Express and take his advice on a stormy night, when the lightning's crashin', the thunder's roarin', and the rain's comin' down in sheets thick as lead. Remember what old Jack Burton does when the earth quakes and the poison arrows fall from the sky and the pillars of heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right square in the eye and he says "Gimme your best shot, pal. I can take it."
