Not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination but the opening words of Hell Comes to Frogtown are memorably understated.

"In the later days of the twentieth century a difference of opinion arose."

Cue nuclear explosions.

"Well--it won't be easy!"

Barry Rogers (John Agar), when asked how his expedition will find oil with no equipment, in Curse of the Swamp Creature

And along those lines...

"It wasn't easy!"

Hoagie (Michael Caine), when asked how he managed to escape getting eaten by the giant shark that had sunken his plane moments before (and swim to the boat, yet emerge from the ocean with damp hair and dry clothes), in Jaws: The Revenge

This one isn't a movie, but it fits, and it's stuck with me for years...

"It wasn't Santa Claus!"

Greta (Jenna von Oy (!) ), when asked what just reached into the house and killed her parents, in the Tales From the Darkside episode "Seasons of Belief"

This is fun!
