What are some appropriate movie speeches for the final 48 hours?
Advertisements [?]
I can think of two:

From the end of Beerfest:

Todd: "Hey, guys, this is that moment. The moment that only exists in sports. The moment where the good guys take on the bad guys. The moment that, if this was a speech in a movie, this would be shown up on tho humongotron to get the home-team fans fired up, huh? Right? Huh, huh? Us versus them!"
All of them: "Yeah."
Todd: "We're the bad guys and they're the good guys. And I'll be damned if we're gonna let the good guys win!"
Barry: "Yeah, we're actually the good guys and they're the bad guys, so..."
Todd: "Right. Let me start that again, guys, huh?"
Barry: "Let's do this for Grandpa Wolfhouse"
Gil: "And for Landfill"
Todd: "And Gam Gam?"
Fink: "And America. On three...one, two, three: Grandpa, Landfill, Gam-Gam, and America!"


And towards the end of Pirates of the Caribbean 3:

Elizabeth Swan: "You will listen to me! LISTEN! The other ships will still be looking to us, to the Black Pearl, to lead, and what will they see? Frightened bilgerats aboard a derelict ship? No, no they will see free men and freedom! And what the enemy will see, they will see the flash of our cannons, and they will hear the ringing of our swords, and they will know what we can do! By the sweat of our brow and the strength of our backs and the courage in our hearts! Gentlemen, hoist the colors!"
