My fave quote I sometimes use in real life is from Interstate 60, not a particularly great movie, but it stuck with me. Chris Cooper's character is a sherriff and the quote is:

"Say what you mean, mean what you say. You know that if everybody followed that rule, there'd be a lot less trouble."

Best SNL movie -"The Coneheads". Very funny, lotsa SNL alum in it. Chris Farley falls in love with daughter, Connie Conehead.
