Most of mine come from TV comedy I have on dvd, as I don't often rewatch films. I have a very small film collection!

It's often intonation rather than a quotable line, so mostly they are for my own benefit. In fact sometimes I mutter them under my breath and snicker to myself.

Examples:
I'm getting a little tired of this (Ghostbusters)
Because... we're not at home to Mr Cock Up (Blackadder II)
And the front door is open... again! (Shaun of the Dead)
No! (the specific way Martin Freeman says it at the beginning of Hot Fuzz)

I think the oddest film one I use is an action rather than a line. If I'm ever drinking a shot, or even something else I finish off in one swallow I have to bang the glass on the table twice a la From Dusk til Dawn.
