A few of my favorites with lines often quoted:

War Games ("Hell I'd piss on a spark plug if I thought it'd do any good!"..."Well Mr. McKittrick, after careful consideration I've come to the conclusion that your new computer system sucks!")

Top Gun ("Ten minutes? This thing'll be over in TWO minutes. Get on it!")

Kelly's Heroes (too many quotes to list - all star cast - Clint E., Telly Savalas, Carroll O'Conner, Don Rickles, Donald Sutherland, etc. - great WWII action comedy)

Anything with John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, or Tom Hanks.
 
Some of my favorites:
Forrest Gump
Rainman
Saving Private Ryan
Big
Caddyshack
Trading Places
Alien
2001: A Space Odyssey
Amadeus
Any movie with Clint Eastwood
The Cowboys
McClintock
Braveheart
Last of the Mohicans
Dances with Wolves
Most WWII movies (The Eagle has Landed, The Guns of Navaronne, The Sands of Iwo Jima, etc. etc.)
 
in order, my top 5 of all time

1. Goodfellas
2. Casino
3. Dumb And Dumber
4. Breakfast Club
5. Dazed And Confused

theres more, but don't feel like listing anymore.
 
"The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming" - great cold war comedy set in a small town in Maine, Jonathan Winters plays the Civil Defense chief. "We've got to get ORGANIZED!"
 
Not what you would expect. Reign Over Me, with Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle. Sandler does a fantastic job as a man who lost his wife and daughters who were on one of the hijacked planes on 9/11. If you haven't seen it I would highly recommend it. I would not have believed he could play a serious part as well as he did in this movie.

I saw that when it was released. Almost pissed my pants laughing so hard. Winters was a genius.
