I think there were quite a few 'Bondian' quotes in DAD (most of them delivered by the villians :)) and I'd like to compile a list of as many as possible...Care to give some input?
My favourites (in no particular order):

GRAVES: You see Mr. Bond, you can't kill my dreams...but my dreams can kill you!!!
GRAVES: Time to face destiny...
(BOND opens parachute, causing GRAVES to fly out of the plane)
BOND: Time to face gravity!

MOON: How do you propose to kill me now...Mr. Bond? (I LOVE the way Moon says 'Mr. Bond' - and Arnold could've cued some DA DA DUM!!!-kinda music to make it REALLY "classic" :))

VLAD: Boss, he beat your time!
GRAVES: ...:mad:

CHANG: If you find him, say good-bye to him from us...

I'm sure there are more but I don't really have much time to put them all now...more to come :)!!!

Bond: I see you don't chase dreams, you live them.
Graves: One of the virtues of never sleeping, Mr. Bond. I have to live my dreams. Besides, plenty of time to sleep when you're dead.

Graves: Are you a gambling man, Mr. Bond?
Bond: If the stakes are right...

Both from Graves - "You're a rare challenge, Mr. Bond" and "It appears you've beaten me, Mr. Bond."

Frost: This is crazy, you're a Double-Oh!
Bond: It's only a number...

Basically, this movie was full of gold, dialogue-wise.

I particularly like this one. It makes me laugh every time I hear it. Just typing it makes a smile come to my face.

Graves: "Look, a parachute for the both of us....Whoops, not any more!"

list your favourite quotes from the movie here...

a few of my faves:

Bond-"I see you don't chase dreams, you live them..."
Graves-"One of the virtues of never sleeping, Mr. Bond, I have to live my dreams..."

Bond(commenting on Graves)-"...from something to nothing in no time at all."

Moon-"How do you propose to kill me now, Mr. Bond?"
(great delivery, this was also mentioned in another thread)

and of course...
Vlad- "Hey boss, he beat your time..."

I'ld say that my #1 favorite line in the film was when graves dies:

"You see mr bond, you can't kill my dream, but my dreams can kill you" a really strong classic bondish line "time to face destiny"
Bond's "time to face gravity" could have been stronger, not the best 'Punchline'

I also really liked "got your attention"

there were a number of good puns and punchlines the "thrust" joke, better then looking cleverer then you are, just a flesh wound, occupational hazard

there were alot of good bond/M interactions too

That is a particularily brilliant line. Stephens delivers it brilliantly.

"Diamonds are for everyone."

"I suppose Mr. Bond has been explaining his Big Bang Theory."/"I think I got the thrust of it."

"They feast like there's no tomorrow."

"You had your cyanide."

[to Q, knocking on the car roof] "Oh, very good."

"Come on, put your back into it."

"I'm afraid you'll never have that pleasure, Mr. Bond."

"You're cleverer than you look."/"Better than looking cleverer than you are."

Frost-I see Mr. Bond has been explaining his big bang theory.
Jinx-Ya, I think I got the thrust of it.

Bond(to bartender in Ice Palace)-Ice?? If you can spare it...

Bond-Do you want to continue??
Graves-Yes I want to bloody continue!

Q-Your new watch, believe this'd be your twentieth.

Loudmouthed guy in Cuba: "I don't need a damned wheelchair."
Bond (after slugging him): "Now you do."

I don't know why but this cracked me up. I was the only one in the theater who laughed out loud at this. Of course, I was also the guy who upon seeing Pulp Fiction the first time laughed out loud when Travolta accidentally shot the guy in the head in the car.

-"You will never get to have that pleasure Mr. Bond."

- (winces) "Ooh."

This could probably be my favorite moment in the movie. It was exactly what I thought when she said it, and Bond really brushes it off (be it for not caring or know hed have her sooner or later :)). It also reminded me of Andrew Osnard and Thomas Crown's style too. Threre's so many other good lines...

more of my faves...

Zao- "How's that for a punch-line?"

Zao-"Kill her."
Mr. Kil- (evil laugh) "I'll use the lasah!!"

Jinx- "James! Here for the penguins this time, or for the view again?"
