I may very well be the only person on the planet that does this, considering I've posted it a couple of other places before to little response. May as well give one more shot at finding another loonie or two just to convince myself I'm not completely out of my mind.

Are there any words that forever take on an actor's voice in your head after you see the flick?

Three of mine come from A Fish Called Wanda. I can't think "Asshole" or "Dissapointed" without hearing them in Kevin Kline's voice. "Vulgarian" always comes out in John Cleese's voice as well.

"Bullshit" is always the crowd at the end of Blazing Saddles.

"Twit" is Cary Elwes from Men in Tights ( speaking to Blinkin when he's guessing no one's coming )

"Jackass" is Joe Flaherty from Happy Gilmore.

That's just off the top of my head, which as you can tell is a crowded place.
 
After hearing Stephen Fry read "De Profundis," I don't even question the fact that I now forever hear his voice when I read Oscar Wilde. Same with Kenneth Branagh and Samuel Pepys.

"Inconceivable!" Not in a sentence, but as an exclamation, it's always from "The Princess Bride."
 
I definitely do this. Movie shorthand.

"A Fish Called Wanda"

"Asshole!" - Kevin Kline

"Disappointed!" - Kevin Kline

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." - Kevin Kline

"Calling you stupid would be an insult to stupid people!" - Jamie Lee Curtis

"R-r-r-revenge!" Michael Palin

I have a ton. I have single words and catchphrases with an uncanny recall of dialogue. So very often I say things that are ripoffs of source material.

More:

Toy Story

"This is the perfect time to panic!"

"You are a sad, strange little man"

Life of Brian

"Crucifiction? Good."

Meaning of Life

"Fuck off! Stop following me!"

...

List goes on forever. It's surprising I ever have an original thought or inflection.

Very much so, and then it's always followed by Mandy Patinkin in his Inigo voice saying, "You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means."
 
I do this too. And when you repeat them aloud, don't you always try to do it in THAT voice?

It's impossible to NOT do the voice.

"Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

"Just look at the bones!"

"I told them we already had one."

"Broken Arrow"

"Would you mind not shooting at the thermonuclear weapons?"

"Star Trek"

"Everybody remember where we parked."
 
Eddie from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation:

"Shitter's full."

ETA: This one requires stance and facial expression as well.

sigh, my kids and I re-enact entire scenes from "Monty Python and Holy Grail" while trying to capture the original voices...and my son's friend joins in too.

Doesn't everyone? If they don't, they should.

I have really weird ones that nobody else will have also.

I still have "MONEY!" from the original Toe Jam and Earl Game. So when I say it, I sound like a leprechaun on crack.

I say "Ah-HAH!" like Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Also "Bored now."
 
:nana: I'm not completely out of my mind! *laugh*

"Inconceivable!" Not in a sentence, but as an exclamation, it's always from "The Princess Bride."

Yep.

"You are a sad, strange little man" Toy Story

Yep. scouries?

I'll add "Fuck off!" Graham Chapman in Life of Brian, trying to get rid of his flock atop the mount. Also "You lucky bastard" from the spaceship crash in same.

"Bite me!" is Crow from MST3K, without any doubt.

"You bitch!" is Terry Jones from a bit on the original Flying Circus that I can't place the name of to save my life. He was an author flashing onscreen for just long enough to say that in protest.

I barely know what my mental voice sounds like. Between all the movie references and the characters wandering around up there, I can't get a word in edgewise.
 
Probably more phrases for me. But 'asshole' is now always the way the baby in Meet the Fockers said it.

I'll be back - Ahnud

But they're not crunchy without the bones - Monty Python

One thin wafer - Monty Python

I've got a bunch from MST3K

"She's zestfully dead!"

"Kim Cattrall, Kim Cattrall, you're really swell...Kim Cattrall..."
 
"Dumbass!" always sounds like Red, from That Seventies Show.
 
"What we have here is a failure to communicate." Strother Martin as Captain from Cool Hand Luke

or a two word...

"The Horror, the horror..." Marlon Brando at the end of Apocalypse Now

"The Cutting Edge"

"Toe pick!"

"Foreplay."

"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"

"Take her."

"Serenity"

"Trap."

"Slither"

"Shelby, are you nodding?"
 
"Breach Hull - all die! Even had it underlined!"

Doesn't really count though, not exactly something that comes up in casual thought *laugh*

"Ping!" Michael Palin, Meaning of life. Not only the voice, but also accompanied by the sound effect. Also has a limited scope, but there nevertheless.

"Rats." Indy in Last Crusade, replacing Charlie Brown for the most part, although Charlie still gets a nod in certain situations. "Junior" is Connery in last Crusade, too.

"Deal with it, Pink Boy!" Crow to Mike

"Manos! The Hands of Fate!" (doo do doo do doo do doo do)

"Deeeep hurting!" Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank

"My seed pod is opening!" (doing Jack Palance in "Outlaw.")

"You die, the girl dies, everybody dies" - Heavy Metal

"The Loch-nar's mine, it's mine!" - Heavy Metal

"That's good Nyborg" - Heavy Metal

(I have the ping too...the machine that goes PING!)

"We named the DOG Indiana!" - Sean Connery
 
I will agree...
"bored now" ALWAYS brings back that evil Willow scene....

I never have the chance to actually use it but I LOVE the lines after hitting a bump:
"What was that??" (from the passenger)
"A Mazda" (from the driver)

The movie is Black Dog, a truckers film that is hilarious to me...
 
My daughter just did one:

"Bothering me...BOTHERING ME!" John Leguizamo standup routine.

We also do:

"I can't stand him" from Singing in the Rain
 
I'm pondering the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?"

Did some one just put up an apartment building behind me?

Don't pull on that! You don't know what it's attached to.
 
Galaxy Quest

"Is there air? You don't know?"

"I think we're the green thingy!"
 
"Finding Nemo"

"The sea monkey has my money."

"Yes, I'm a natural blue."

"There something wrong with you. Really."

"You made me ink!"
