Guess the Movie

Many scooterists have been or are still motorcyclists. Sooooo, can you guess who spoke these lines in what awful motorcycle movie?

"We just wanna be FREE to ride our MACHINES, without being HASSLED by the MAN!"

Bonus points if you give the release year.

Oh my.
I have had to watch a lot of those B motorcycle movies because my husband has a lot of them.

What was the Marlon Brando one in the small town after he steals the racing trophy?

"We wanna be free! We wanna be free to do what we wanna do. We wanna be free to ride. We wanna be free to ride our machines without being hassled by The Man! ... And we wanna get loaded. And we wanna have a good time. And that's what we are gonna do. We are gonna have a good time... We are gonna have a party."

You just gotta love the internet.

It's also sampled in "Loaded" by Primal Scream and "In 'n' Out of Grace" by Mudhoney. : )

Here's one. What movie and who said it?: [to Buddy] "I don't need you! I don't need your jacket! I'm not part of your private army!"

gymnation, (i dunno that quote, but) The Big Lebowski is my second-favorite movie ever, after Better Off Dead.

I think my favorite line is "Clearly, you're not a golfer" but there are plenty to choose from. Maybe "Say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, but at least it's an ethos." Or "I'm just gonna find a cash machine."

I don't need you! I don't need your jacket! I'm not part of your private army!"

Said by Poet (Jack Nicholson), movie is Hells Angels on Wheels, 1967

Very good! Anything Jack ever said in a movie is gold...

My favorite biker movie is "Chrome and Hot Leather," it's just flat out weird. Marvin Gaye (I told you it was weird) and three of his green beret friends buy dorky little Suzuki 350s and take on the biker gang that caused the death of one of the Beret's fiancee.

I recently wrote a "treatment" for Better Off Dead (and One Crazy Summer) for a story on imagining sequels for '80s movies and franchises. You'll probably think it's heresy, but it's here.

My favorite biker movie? Knightriders.
