Perhaps this list is needlessly high concept. Well... I dunno, it was fun to make, that's for sure. Basically, I took the AFI's list of the top 100 movie quotes (composed in 2005), ran it through GoogleTranslate on English-to-Japanese, then ran the result on Japanese-to-English, and picked my favorites. In parentheses are the actual quotes rankings on the AFI's list. (Oh, credit where credit is due, this was most definitely a methodological inspiration.)
