30 DAYS OF NIGHT [2007]

They're Coming!

Barrow, Alaska - Northernmost town in the U.S.

Isolated in 80 miles of roadless wilderness.

Cut off every winter for 30 days of night.

Ally Riis, about her slaughtered dogs: What sick jerk would do this?

John Riis: Every kennel. Every dog we had.

Eben: Did you fight with anyone recently, John?

Ally Riis: I'll kill them. I'll kill them.

Eben: This wasn't done long ago. I'll find them, okay?

Carter: I saw Wilson's helicopter logo.

Pulled that stuff out before it got totally trashed.

Eben: You keep your copter under lock and key, don't you?

Wilson: Yeah, I put it in dry dock when the tourists headed south.

I haven't looked at it for days.

They ripped out the throttle, the rotors, half the fucking helicopter!

It's my life, Eben.

Why would someone rip the hell out of my bird?

Eben: Let me tell you what I got.

You don't work at the refinery.

You didn't fly in.

Somebody's have seen you.

And you're definitely not from around here.

How'd you get in?

[The Stranger didn't say anything]

Eben: All right.

We got a long time to figure this out.

Nobody's coming for you for a month.

[The Stranger smirks]

Bar the windows.

Try to hide.

They're coming.

This time they gonna take me with them, honor me.

For all that I have done.

~The Stranger

This is Sheriff Eben Oleson.

Stay in your homes, lock your doors and load your firearms.

This is not a drill.

~Eben Oleson

Anyone with a genny should go home immediately, just to be safe.

 If you don't have one, you should meet at the diner.

~Eben Oleson

No way out of town.

No one to come help.

You can feel it.

That cold ain't the weather, that's death approaching.

Who you think they gonna take first?

The girl who thinks a gun will help her?

The kid. sheriff's kid?

Or the old gal?

~The Stranger

Jake: They're like vampires, you know.

Stella: Vampires don't exist, Jake.

Doug: They don't fall when you shoot them.

Beau: Hell, neither do I.

Stella: I should've fought harder.

Kept Wilson here.

Eben: It's hard to stop someone when their family's at stake.

The things you do to save your own.

Stella: We were like that once. Weren't we?

I'm done playing with this one.

You wanna play with me now?

~Little Girl Vampire

Carter: Eben, could we make it to your station if somebody created a diversion?

Eben: How?

Stella: These things can't survive the sun.

What if we brought the sun early?

Helen had that operation at home.

Jake: Yeah, she used an ultraviolet light to grow the stuff.

Stella: I can run for her place, let them follow me.

Hit them with the sun lamp while the rest of you go to the sheriff's station.

Beau: Just because something stopped Bela Lugosi, doesn't mean it can stop these things.

Stella: Why would they send that stranger to cut us off if they can handle the light?

Jake: What if it doesn't work?

Stella: It has to.

You do understand?

What can be broken must be broken.

~Marlow

It took centuries for us to make them believe we were only bad dreams.

We cannot give them reason to suspect.

Destroy them all.

~Marlow

I can smell your blood.

~Eben Oleson

Stella: What did you do to yourself?

Eben: What I had to.

WICKER PARK (2004)

Passion Never Dies

Take my picture.

I feel beautiful tonight.

~Lisa

Luke: I didn't realize you were that serious.

Matthew: Apparently I'm not.

Luke: That's how the universe works.

The minute you make a decision, you decide on anything, along comes temptation.

Matthew: What would you do?

Luke: Keep them both and hope they didn't find out about each other is what I would do.

Sometimes when you see someone from afar, you develop a fantasy.

Then when you see them up close, 9 times out of ten.

~Matthew

Matthew: What do you think, Alex? You know the whole story.

Alex: It's easy to stand back and judge. You don't know anything about this woman.

Matthew: I know that she has no conscience and no regard for anyone but herself.

Alex: You make yourself into such a victim.

Nobody made you be with her. You can't even see what a hypocrite you're being.

Matthew: I'm being hypocrite? How am I being a hypocrite?

I'd like you to explain me how I'm being a hypocrite.

Alex: Who's to say this woman hasn't been in love with you for a really long time?

And now that she found you again, she wasn't about to let you go twice.

Matthew: What?

Alex: Maybe, the first time she saw you, maybe she felt the way you did the first time you saw Lisa.

You remember that.

Love makes you do crazy things. Insane things.

Things in a million years you never thought you'd see yourself do.

There you are doing it. Can't help it.

I'm not going to apologize for what I've done.

This is for me to live with now.

Now you see me for who I am.

~Alex

Matthew: I can't marry you. It would be a huge mistake.

Rebecca: You're gonna have to help me out, baby. Did I do something wrong?

Matthew: No, you didn't do anything wrong.

I've been doing something wrong for the last 2 years.

I'm not this person. I can't go back with you. I can't do this.

When we met 2 years ago, I was in love with someone else.

And she just came back into my life.

She broke my heart... and I'm sorry.

I know that I'm still in love with her.

PEARL HARBOR [2001]

 It Takes A Moment To Change History. 

It Takes Love To Change Lives.

A brilliant man would find a way not to fight a war. 

[Admiral Yamamoto] 

 The smart enemy attacks you exactly where you think you are safe.

[Admiral Kimmel]

Returning from the dead wasn't all that I expected... but that's life. 

[Rafe]

 You died Rafe. So did I. 

[Evelyn] 

Rafe I'm pregnant... 
I didn't even know until the day you turned up alive... and then all this happened... 
I haven't told Danny... I don't want him to know. 
All he needs to think about is how to do this mission and get back alive. 
Oh Rafe, all I ever wanted was for us to have a home and grow old together, 
but life never asked me what I wanted. 
Now I'm going to give Danny my whole heart... 
but I don't think I'll ever look at another sunset without thinking of you... 
I'll love you my whole life.  

[Evelyn]

[Rafe]: You are so beautiful it hurts. 

[Evelyn]: It's your nose that hurts.

[Rafe]: I think it's my heart. 

[Danny]: You know, the only thing that scares me 
is that you might love him more than you love me. 

[Evelyn]:  I love YOU, Danny.

BLACK HAWK DOWN [2001]

 Leave No Man Behind

Atto: Mr. Garrison, I think you shouldn't have come here.
This is civil war. This is our war. Not yours.
Garrison: 300,000 dead and counting.
That's not a war, Mr. Atto, that's genocide.

You Delta boys are a bunch of undisciplined cowboys.
Let me tell you something, Sargeant.
When we get on a 5 yard line, you're going to need my Rangers.
Y'all better learn to be team players.
~LTC Danny McKnight

These people, they have no jobs, no food, no education, no future.
We have 2 things that we can do.
We can help or we can sit back and watch the country destroy itself on CNN.
~SSG Matt Eversmann

Hoot: It don't really matter what I think. 
Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit... 
just goes right out the window.
Eversmann: I just want to do it right today.
Hoot: Just watch your corner.
Get all your men back here alive.

Good luck, boys.
Be careful.
No one gets left behind.
~MG William F. Garrison

We got a Black Hawk down, we got a Black Hawk down
Super 61 is down.
We got a bird down in the city.
Super 61 is on the deck now.

Thomas: I can't go back out there.
Struecker: Thomas, everyone feels the same way you do, all right?
It's what you do right now that makes a difference.
It's your call, hoo-ah?

Durant: What do you want with me?
Firimbi: You have taken hostages, we have you.
Durant: My government will never negotiate for me.
Firimbi: Then perhaps you and I can negotiate, huh?
Soldier to soldier.
Durant: I'm not in charge.
Firimbi: Of course not. 
You have the power to kill, but not negotiate.
In Somalia, killing is negotiation.
Do you really think if you get General Aidid,
we will simply put down our weapons and adopt American democracy?
That the killing will stop?
We know this, without victory, there can be no peace.
There will always be killing, you see?
This is how things are in our world.

Smith: I'm sorry.
Eversmann: You don't have anything to be sorry for.
You saved Twombly. You did perfect.
You did what you were trained to do.
You should be proud of that.
Be proud of that.
Smith: Ev, do me a favor.
You tell my parents that I fought well today.
And that I fought hard.
Eversmann: You're going to tell them yourself, okay?

Hoot: You're thinking. Don't.
Because, Sergeant, you can't control who gets hit or who doesn't.
Who falls out of a chopper or why.
It ain't up to you.
It's just war.
Eversmann: Yeah, well, Smith's still dead.
This all happened because Blackburn fell.
Hoot: Should have, could have, don't matter.
You'll get plenty of time to think about all that later, believe me.
Sergeant, you got your men this far.
You did it right today.
You need to start thinking about getting these men out of here.

When I go home and people ask me, 
"Hey, Hoot, why do you do it, man? Why? You some kind of war junkie?"
I won't say a goddamn word.
Why?
They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it.
They won't understand it's about the men next to you.
And that's it, that's all it is.
~SFC Norm "Hoot" Gibson

A friend of mine asked me before I got here, it was when we were all shipping out,
"Why are you going to fight somebody else's war?
What, do y'all think you're heroes?"
I didn't know what to say at the time, but if he asked me again, I'd say no.
I'd say there's no way in hell.
Nobody asks to be a hero.
It just sometimes turns out that way.
~SSG Matt Eversmann
