By DAVID GERMAIN, AP Movie Writer
LOS ANGELES - Humphrey Bogart, Arnold Schwarzenegger (news - web sites) and Jack Nicholson are competing in a war of words. The American Film Institute (news - web sites) is surveying Hollywood types for the top 100 quotes from U.S. movies, with contenders including Bogart's "Here's looking at you, kid" from "Casablanca," Schwarzenegger's "I'll be back" from "The Terminator" and Nicholson's "You can't handle the truth!" from "A Few Good Men."
Chosen from 400 classic lines of dialogue, the winners will be revealed in the CBS special "AFI's 100 Years ... 100 Movie Quotes" in June.
"Great movie quotes become part of our cultural vocabulary," said Jean Picker Firstenburg, AFI director.
The top 100 will be chosen through ballots sent to 1,500 directors, screenwriters, actors, critics and others in the film business.
Other contending quotes include Clark Gable's "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" from "Gone With the Wind," Mae West's "Why don't you come up and see me?" from "She Done Him Wrong," Tom Hanks (news)' "Houston, we have a problem" from "Apollo 13," Cuba Gooding Jr.'s "Show me the money" from "Jerry Maguire" and the "Star Wars" gang's "May the Force be with you."
The quotes range from the first full sound feature film with Al Jolson (news)'s "Wait a minute, wait a minute. You ain't heard nothin' yet" from 1927's "The Jazz Singer" to creepy creature Gollum (Andy Serkis) hissing "My precious" in 2002's "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers."
The TV special is the eighth top-100 list for the AFI, whose previous specials included best U.S. films, comedies, love stories, movie tunes and heroes and villains.
"Casablanca," which was No. 1 on AFI's list of best love stories and ranked second on the list of top overall films, leads the competition with seven quotes among the 400 nominees, followed by "The Wizard of Oz" with six.
Bogart has the most quotes on the ballot with 10, followed by Al Pacino and the Marx Brothers with six each. Billy Wilder leads screenwriters with 13 nominated quotes.
whomod said: I generally don't like it when people decide to play by the rules against people who don't play by the rules. It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness. This is true both in politics and on the internet." Our Friendly Neighborhood Ray-man said: "no, the doctor's right. besides, he has seniority."

If you're gonna insult me by saying I have no Phillip Johnson, please be more creative. "Frame of reference" is too obvious.

"I know what you're thinking, punk. You're thinking, "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, I've forgotten myself in all this excitement. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?"

ahh, thats a good one, cj.
i'm trying to think of all of the lines that have become cliche over the years -- or anything that has been repeated in a commercial or jim carrey movie. those will more than likely fill the top 10.

IMO the "I'll be back" sux, cause it mighta been unintentionally funny.
Best quote(have to retranslate this though):
The bums will always lose, Lebowski!
Think clean thoughts, chum.
