Not the best, but I was always a fan of:
"I'm like her Fairy Godmother. Only slutty."
"Okay. Whatever that was was really good.
-The Wedding Singer.
Also, the one in my avatar: "My word?! You're asking a whore for her cherry!"
-The Little Dog Laughed
"Da da da da dum."
"It's a mean, nasty Republican town."

It's not really a one-liner, but mine's also from The Wedding Singer. It's mostly in the delivery, but I love when Laura Benanti says, in response to "She seems a little tipsy"
I'm not tipsy - I'm hammered!
I just love it.

"Bitch. I don't know your life?"
Why is that punctuated with a question mark? Is that how he pronounces it? Also, that's like a saying... they say it Baby Mama... and at thousands of drag shows all over the world... why is Xanadu always credited with this line?

Not exactly the best one-liner by a long-shot, but the first one that comes to mind-- in Little Mermaid, King Triton asks Flounder if he knows who Ariel's mooning over, and Flounder goes, "Don't ask me! I didn't even know it was love until the second chorus!" (They'd just finished a song called "She's In Love," and Flounder came in on the second verse.)
Also, I liked in The Lion King when the "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" started and the strange-looking rainbow curtain came down-- Zazu said, "What? This wasn't in the cartoon!" And then he added, "Looks like a shower curtain from Wal-Mart."
I guess I just love it when the script breaks the fourth wall.

Schmerg, in Boston, it was "Filene's Basement".

^_^ That's awesome. I'm over in D.C., so it's not like I'm in the deep south or anything, but Wal-Mart is definitely more relevant over here.
It reminds me of the Knight Who Says Ni from Spamalot. He always says something different in the middle of his, "We are NOW the Knights who say..." I saw the show twice, and one of the times he sang "You know it's hard out here for a pimp," and the second time he claimed to be the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby.

Posted: 9/8/08 at 9:07pmHonestly anything from A:OC is an instant classic one liner. That is, of course, if its one line. LOL. :) "Eat the fish bitch!" is pretty much my favorite.
