The very quotable Tombstone...


Tombstone is my favorite modern western, and second all time. And it is one of the most quote worthy movie of all time. Here are some of my favorite quotes:


Johnny Ringo: [Ringo steps up to Doc] And you must be Doc Holliday.
Doc Holliday: That's the rumor.
Johnny Ringo: You retired too?
Doc Holliday: Not me. I'm in my prime.
Johnny Ringo: Yeah, you look it.
Doc Holliday: And you must be Ringo. Look, darling, Johnny Ringo. The deadliest pistoleer since Wild Bill, they say. What do you think, darling? Should I hate him?
Kate: You don't even know him.
Doc Holliday: Yes, but there's just something about him. Something around the eyes, I don't know, reminds me of... me. No. I'm sure of it, I hate him.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ike Clanton: What is that now? Twelve hands in a row? Holliday, son of a bitch, nobody's that lucky.
Doc Holliday: Why Ike, whatever do you mean? Maybe poker's just not your game Ike. I know! Let's have a spelling contest!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Doc Holliday: I'm your huckleberry...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morgan Earp: Look at all the stars. You look up and you think, "God made all this and He remembered to make a little speck like me." It's kind of flattering, really.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Johnny Tyler: I swear, it's like I'm playin' cards with my brother's kids or somethin'. You nerve-wrackin' sons-a-bitches
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Doc Holliday: It's true, you are a good woman. Then again, you may be the antichrist.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wyatt Earp: You skin that smoke wagon and we'll see what happens!
Johnny Tyler: Listen mister, I'm getting awful tired of your...
[Wyatt slaps him]
Wyatt Earp: Are you gonna do something? Or just stand there and bleed?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Johnny Ringo: [Ringo has taken Holliday up on his offer to 'finish the game'] All right, 'lunger'. Let's do it.
Doc Holliday: Say when.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Doc Holliday: Why Johnny Tyler! You madcap!
Johnny Tyler: Doc?
Doc Holliday: Where you goin' with that shotgun?

Monty, I agree... Tombstone (1993), is on my list of "top 5 movies". Val Kilmer, is my all time favorite of the more recent actors.... Thanks for posting all those wonderful quotes!

Monty, I posted two clips from youtube of Val Kilmer's (Doc Holliday)favorite scenes, from the film Tombstone. But removed them because he dropped the F-bomb..If you have not seen them ..you might want to run over and take a look. I do not have a problem with the movie clips. I just want to keep our blogs from offending anyone. :)
