Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

Lando: Punch it.
[Chewbacca attempts to engage the hyperdrive on the Millenium Falcon - it fails]
Lando: They told me they fixed it! I *trusted* them to *fix* it! It's not my fault!

Darth Vader: Calrissian. Take the princess and the Wookie to my ship.
Lando: You said they'd be left at the city under my supervision!
Darth Vader: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.

Lando: [greeting "old friend" Han Solo] Why, you slimy, double-crossing, no-good swindler.

Lando: What are you doing here?
Han Solo: Ah, repairs. I was hoping you could help me out.
Lando: What have you done to my ship?
Han Solo: YOUR ship? Hey, remember you lost her to me, fair and square.

Lando: Lord Vader, what about Leia and the Wookiee?
Darth Vader: They must never again leave this city.
Lando: [outraged] That was never a condition of our agreement, nor was giving Han to this bounty hunter!
Darth Vader: Perhaps you think you're being treated unfairly?
Lando: [after a pause; nervous tone] No.
Darth Vader: Good. You know it would be unfortunate if I had to leave a garrison here.
Lando: [to himself] This deal is getting worse all the time!

[C-3PO is broken almost beyond repair]
Lando: Having trouble with your droid?
Han Solo: No, no problem. Why?

C-3PO: Oh. They've encased him in Carbonite. He should be quite well protected. If he survived the freezing process, that is.
Darth Vader: Well, Calrissian, did he survive?
Lando: Yes, he's alive, and in perfect hibernation.
Darth Vader: He's all yours, bounty hunter.

[the storm troopers are taken prisoner by Calrissian's men]
Lando: [to Lobot, his aide] Well done. Get them to the security tower, and keep it quiet. Move.
[Lando's aide and their men walk off with the troops as Lando hands Leia the imperials' weapons and starts taking off Chewie's cuffs]
Leia: What do you think you're doing?
Lando: We're getting out of here.
C-3PO: I knew all along. Had to be a mistake.
Leia: [angrily] Do you think that after what you did to Han that we're going to trust you?
[Chewie grabs Lando by the throat]
Lando: [choking] I had no choice!
C-3PO: What are you doing? Trust him, trust him!
Leia: Oh, well, we understand, don't we, Chewie. You had "no choice".
Lando: Just trying to help...
Leia: We don't need any of your help!
Lando: [gasps] Han! Ha- Ha...
Leia: What?
Lando: HAN!
C-3PO: It sounds like Han!
Lando: [gasping] There's still a chance to save Han! At the east... platform!
Leia: Chewie!
[Leia gets Chewie to drop Lando]
C-3PO: I'm terribly sorry about all this. After all, he's only a Wookiee!

Lando: I had no choice. They arrived right before you did. I'm sorry.
Han Solo: I'm sorry too.

Lando: [to Leia] You look absolutely beautiful. You truly belong here with us among the clouds.
Princess Leia: [cooly] Thank you.

Luke: [clinging to an antennae below Cloud City] Leia... Hear me, Leia...
Princess Leia: [in the Falcon] Luke... We've got to go back.
Lando: What?
Princess Leia: I know where Luke is!

Lando: Lord Vader, we only use this facility for carbon freezing. If you put him in there it might kill him.
Darth Vader: I do not want the Emperor's prize damaged. We will test it on Captain Solo.

[last lines]
Lando: Princess, we'll find Han. I promise.
Luke: Chewie, I'll be waiting for your signal. Take care, you two. May the force be with you.

Lando: [to Han] You know, seeing you sure brings back a few things. Yeah, I'm responsible now, the price you pay for being successful.

Lando: [seeing Leia for the first time] Hello, what have we here?

Lando: How you doin' Chewbacca? Still hanging around with this loser?

Han Solo: What's going on... Buddy?
Lando: You're being put into carbon-freeze.

Lando: I've just made a deal that'll keep the Empire out of here forever.

Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983)

Lando Calrissian: Split up and head back to the surface. And see if you can get a few of those TIE fighters to follow you.

Lando Calrissian: [after seeing the Death Star is operational] Home One, this is Gold Leader.
Admiral Ackbar: We saw it. All craft, prepare to retreat.
Lando Calrissian: We won't get another chance at this, Admiral.
Admiral Ackbar: We have no choice, General Calrissian! Our cruisers can't repel firepower of that magnitude!
Lando Calrissian: Han will have that shield down. We've got to give him more time!

Lando Calrissian: That blast came from the Death Star! That thing's operational!

Han Solo: Well, look at you! A General, huh?
Lando Calrissian: Someone must have told them all about my little maneuver at the battle of Taanab.
Han Solo: Well, don't look at me, pal. I just said you were a fair pilot. I didn't know they were looking for somebody to *lead* this crazy attack.
Lando Calrissian: I'm surprised they didn't ask you to do it.
Han Solo: Well, who says they didn't? Only I ain't crazy.

Lando Calrissian: Here goes nothing.

Lando Calrissian: That was too close.

[inside the Death Star]
Lando Calrissian: All right, Wedge. Go for the power regulator on the north tower.
Wedge Antilles: Copy, Gold Leader. I'm already on my way out.

Lando Calrissian: We've gotta be able to get some kind of a reading on that shield, up or down.
Nien Nunb: [speaks in Sullustese]
Lando Calrissian: But how could they be jamming us if they don't know... if we're coming?
[over comlink]
Lando Calrissian: Break off the attack! The shield is still up!
Wedge Antilles: I get no reading. Are you sure?
Lando Calrissian: Pull up! All craft, pull up!
Admiral Ackbar: Take evasive action! Green group, stick close to holding section MV-7!
Mon Calamari: Admiral! We have enemy ships in sector 47!
Admiral Ackbar: It's a trap!

Lando Calrissian: Yes, I said *closer*! Move as close as you can, and engage those Star Destroyers at point blank range!
Admiral Ackbar: At that close range we won't last long against those Star Destroyers!
Lando Calrissian: We'll last longer than we will against that Death Star! And we might just take a few of them with us!

[en route to attack the new Death Star]
Lando Calrissian: [to Nien Nunb] Don't worry, my friend's down there. He'll have that shield down in time.
[to himself]
Lando Calrissian: Or this'll be the shortest offensive of all time.

Han Solo: [as Lando is being dragged down by Sarlaac] Chewie, give me the gun! Don't move, Lando!
Lando Calrissian: No, wait! I thought you were blind!
Han Solo: It's alright, I can see a lot better! Don't move!
Lando Calrissian: Up a little higher! Just a little higher!

Lando Calrissian: Watch it! Squad at point oh-six.
Wedge Antilles: Red Three, Red Two, pull in!
Red Two: Got it.
Red Two: Three more of them coming in, twenty degrees.
Wedge Antilles: Cut to the left, I'll take the leader.

Admiral Ackbar: The Shield is down! Commence attack on the Death star's main reactor.
Lando Calrissian: We're on our way, Red group, Gold group, all fighters follow me. Ha ha ha, I told you they'd do it!
