JURASSIC PARK III [2001]

Evolve or Die

Raptors were fierce, intelligent and socially sophisticated.
They were able to hunt in numbers and coordinate their efforts.
~Dr. Alan Grant

 Student 1: Your theory on raptors is good and all, but isn't all this conjecture kind of moot?
 Once the UN and Costa Rica and everyone decide how to handle that second island, 
scientists will just go in and look for themselves.
 Alan: Dinosaurs lived 65 million years ago, what is left of them is fossilized in the rocks.
 And it is in the rock that real scientists make real discoveries.
 What John Hammond and InGen did at Jurassic Park is create genetically engineered theme-park monsters. 
Nothing more and nothing less.
 Student 2: Are you saying that you wouldn't want to get onto Isla Sorna and study them if you had the chance?
 Alan: No force on earth or heaven could get me on that island.

 Billy, on the airplane: Alan, I want to thank you for bringing me along.
 Alan: The bones will still be there when we get back.
 That's the great thing about bones, they never run away.

 Alan: Why me?
Paul: He said we needed someone who'd been on the island before.
Udesky: Yes, but I did not tell you to kidnap somebody.
 Alan: I have never been on this island.
 Paul: Sure you have. You wrote that book.
 Billy: That was Isla Nublar. This is Isla Sorna, Site B.
 Udesky: You mean there are 2 islands with dinosaurs?

 Paul: Dr. Grant, we're not leaving this island without our son.
Alan: Then you can go and look for him.
 Or you can stick with us, as long as you don't hold us up.
 Either way, you probably won't get off this island alive.

 Amanda: Eric!
Alan: Quiet.
Paul: Would you stop that? Dr. Grant says this is very dangerous territory.
 Amanda: Maybe we should split up. We could cover twice as much.
 Paul: Dr. Grant says that's a bad idea.
 Amanda: Dr. Grant says this...
Paul: Why hire an expert if we don't use his advice?
 Amanda: Except Dr. Grant isn't looking for Eric. He's looking for the coast.
Paul: Go ahead and scream.
When that Tricycloplots attacks you, don't come crying to me.
Amanda: Don't worry about that.
Paul: What? What did you say?
Amanda: Never mind! Paul, just drop it.
Udesky, to Billy: If we split up, I'm going with you guys.

Alan: Thank's a lot, Eric.
Eric: You know who I am?
Alan: Yeah. Your parents are here. They're looking for you.
Eric: Together?
Alan: Together.
Eric: That's not good. They don't do so well together.
Alan: You'd be surprised what people can do when they have to.

Alan: Did you read Malcolm's book?
Eric: Yeah.
Alan: So?
Eric: I don't know. I mean... It was kind of preachy.
And too much chaos. Everything is chaos. Seemed like he was high on himself.

Alan: Did you steal raptor eggs? Now it all makes sense.
Billy: I swear, if I'd known you were going to end up with them...
It was an impulse, I thought they'd be worth a fortune.
Enough to fund the dig site another 10 more years.
You have to believe me. This was a stupid decision, but I did it with the best intentions.
Alan: "With the best intentions."
Some of the worst things imaginable have been done with the best intentions.
You know what, Billy? 
As far as I'm concerned, you're no better than the people that built this place.

THE FAMILY MAN [2000]

What If...


 You wanna do something great, Jack?
Let's flush the plan, let's start our lives right now, today.
I have no idea what this life is gonna look like, but I know that it has the both of us in it.
And I choose us.
The plan doesn't make us great, Jack.
What we have together, that's what makes us great.
~Kate

Jack: Hey, Peter, let me ask you a question.
An old girlfriend calls you out of the blue on Christmas eve, what do you do?
Peter: You suddenly having trouble getting dates?
Jack: Yeah...
Peter: Leave it in the past.
Old flames are like old tax returns. Put 'em in the file cabinet for 3 years.

Cash: This man thinks I need to be saved, yo!
Jack: Everybody needs something.
Cash: Yeah? Well, what do you need, Jack?
Jack: Me?
Cash: Yeah. You just said that everybody needs something.
Jack: I got everything I need.
Cash: Wow, it must be great being you.
Jack: I'm not saying that you'd be able to do it without some hard works, honest hard works, and possibly some medicine.
Cash, chuckles: I'm gonna really enjoy this.
You just remember that you did this, Jack, okay?
You brought this on yourself.
Merry Christmas.

Cash: The way you intervened in the store last night, you did a good thing there, Jack.
It was incredibly impressive.
Jack: Please just tell me what's happening to me, in English, without the mumbo-jumbo.
Cash: This is a glimpse, Jack.
Jack: A glimpse? A glimpse of what?
Cash: You're gonna have to figure that out for yourself. You've got plenty of time.
Jack: How much time?
Cash: As much time as it takes, which in your case is probably gonna be considerable.
Jack: Okay, look, I just want my life back, okay?
What's it gonna take? You wanna talk turkey? Let's turkey. How much money?
Cash: It doesn't work like that and I can't tell you why.
Jack: Why not?
Cash: Because you have to figure this thing out for yourself.
Are you listening to me?
Jack: Figure it out... figure it out what?
Cash: Let it come to you, man.

Arnie: Look, you fit the profile exactly in your 30's, house, kids, financial responsibilities.
You start thinking this isn't the life I thought about.
Where's the romance, you know?
Where's the joie de vivre?
Suddenly every lingerie ad in the Newark Star-Ledger represents a life that you can't have.
Jack: It's just 2 kids, right?
Arnie: All right, sometimes it feels like you gave up the whole world, I know that.
But look what you got! [point to the house] Look at that!
4 bedrooms, 2-and-half baths, a partially finished basement, and good kids.
You know what? You probably don't wanna hear this right now.
Remember last summer when I almost had that thing with our engineers staff, you remember what you said to me?
You said, "Don't screw up the best thing in your life, just because you're a little unsure about who you are."

Annie: Promise you won't kidnap me and my brother and plant stuff in our brains?
Jack: Sure.
Annie, smiling: Welcome to Earth.

Jack: Oh, God, you're beautiful.
Kate: Thanks, Jack.
Jack: No, I'm serious.
You're really stunning.
Kate: This is good stuff. I want you to keep this up.
Jack: You were always a very pretty girl in college, no question about that.
But this, you've really grown to the beautiful woman.
Kate: How can you do that?
Jack: What?
Kate: Look at me like you haven't seen me every day for the last 13 years.

Jack: Do you have any idea what my life is like?
I wake up in the morning covered in...
I drop the kids off, spend 8 hours selling tires retail. Retail, Kate.
I pick the kids up, walk the dog, which by the way, carries the added bonus of carting away her monstrous crap.
I play with the kids, take out the garbage, get 6 hours of sleep if I'm lucky, then everything starts all over again.
So what's in it for me?
Kate: You know, it's sad to hear that your life is such a disappointment.
Jack: I can't believe it isn't a disappointment to you!
Jesus, Kate, I could have been a thousand times the man I became.
I could have been one of the richest Forbes...
How could you do this for me? How could you let me give up on my dreams like this?
Really, I want to know...
Kate: Who are you?
Jack: All right, look, I'm sorry.
Maybe I'm not the same guy that I was when I got married.
Kate: Maybe you're not.
Because the Jack Campbell I married would not need $2,400 suit to feel better about his life.
But if that's what it's gonna take it, buy it!

Jack: I just sometimes wonder how we ended up here.
I mean, back in the college, did you see us here?
Kate: Life has thrown us a few surprises.

Jack: So we had a baby, Big Ed had a heart attack, bought that house and I've been working for ever since.
Sayonara Wall Street.
Our life in a nutshell.
Kate: If you want to look at it that way.
Jack: How would you look at it?
Kate: A great success story.

Jack: I just saw Evelyn Thompson.
Arnie: She's relentless.
Jack: She wants to have an affair with me.
Arnie: She said that?
Jack: Pretty much.
Arnie: What is it about you?
Jack: So, if you would write her exact address down there, please...
Arnie: Whoa, whoa, whoa... hold on a second.
You're not actually thinking about cheating on Kate, are you?
Jack: Well, it wouldn't really be cheating, Arnie. It's complicated.
Arnie: Maybe I haven't been as good a consigliere as you've been to me, but listen to me,
a little flirtation is harmless, but you're dealing with fire here, man.
The Fidelity Bank & Trust is a tough creditor.
You make a deposit somewhere else, they close your account forever, all right?
Jack: Arnie, I don't want your head to explode,
but I'm telling you, those rules don't apply to me.
Arnie: I'm not talking about rules, Jack.
I'm talking about... you're...
There isn't a guy in Union County who wouldn't to be with Kate.
She's amazing, and you're gonna fuck it up.
Just think about that, all right?

Kate: I think about it too. I do.
I wonder about what kind of life I would have had if I hadn't married to you.
Jack: And?
Kate: And then I realize I've just erased all the things in my life that I'm sure about.
 You and the kids.
Jack: Good things.
Kate: Yeah.
What are you sure about?
Jack: I'm sure that right now, there's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you.

My God, all this time, I never stopped loving you.
~Jack Campbell

Jack: I need to do that as a man. For all of us.
Please just think about this for one second.
No more lousy restaurants.
No more clipping coupons.
No more shoveling snow.
Kate: Then get a goddamn snowblower, Jack!
Don't go get a new career without even telling me about it.
And don't take Annie out of school she loves.
Don't move us out of a house we've become a family in.
Jack: I'm talking about us, finally having a life that other people envy.
Kate: Oh, Jack, they already do envy us.

When you got on that plane, I was sure it was over.
I left the airport afraid I'd never see you again.
And then you showed up the very next day.
That was a good surprise.
You know, I think about the decision you made.
Maybe I was being naive, but I believed that we would grow old together in this house,
that we'd spend holidays here and have our grandchildren come visit us here.
I had this image of us all gray and wrinkly,
and me, working in the garden, and you repainting the deck.
But things change.
If you need this, Jack, if you really need this,
I will take these kids from a life they love, 
and I'll take myself from the only home we've ever shared together,
and I'll move wherever you need to go.
I'll do that because I love you.
I love you, and that's more important to me than our address.
I choose us.
~Kate

Jack: I'm not going back, you understand me?
You can't do this.
You can't keep coming in and out of people's lives, messing things up, it's not right.
Cash: A glimpse by definition, is an impermanent thing, Jack.

Jack: I need you to remember me, Kate.
How I am right now, at this very moment.
I need you to put that image in your heart.
Keep it with you no matter what happens.
Kate: Are you okay?
Jack: Yeah.
Please just promise me.
You have to promise me, because if you don't, I don't think I can live with that.
Kate: I promise.
Jack: Promise me again.
Kate: I promise.

We have a house in Jersey.
We have 2 kids, Annie and Josh.
Annie's not much of a violin player, but she's try real hard.
She's a little precocious, but that's only because she said what's in her mind.
And when she smiles...
And Josh, he has your eyes.
He doesn't say much, but we know he's smart.
He's always got his eyes open, he's always watching us.
Sometimes you can look at him and you just know he's learning something new.
It's like witnessing a miracle.
The house is a mess, but it's ours.
After 122 more payments, it's going to be ours.
And you, you're a non-profit lawyer.
That's right, you're completely non-profit.
But that doesn't seem to bother you.
And we're in love.
After 13 years of marriage, we're still unbelievably in love.
You won't even let me touch you till I've said it.
I sing to you.
Not all the time, but definitely on special occasions.
And we've dealt with our share of surprises and made a lot sacrifices, but we stayed together.
You're a better person than I am, and it made me a better person to be around you.
Maybe it was all just a dream.
Maybe I went to bed one lonely night and I imagined it all, 
but I swear, nothing's ever felt more real.
And if you get on that plane right now, it'll disappear forever.
I know we could both go on with our lives, but I've seen what we could be like together.
And I choose us.
~Jack Campbell

BAD BOYS [1995]

Whatcha Gonna Do?

[Julie Mott]: I don't eat flesh.

[Marcus Burnett]: Say what?

[Julie Mott]: That's flesh that you're shoveling into your mouth. 

You know, that was, like, a living, breathing creature. You know, it probably had a name. 

[Marcus Burnett]: It's just bologna. My bologna has a first name. 

[Mike Lowrey]: Please, man. Married life is easy. You only got one woman to satisfy. 

[Marcus Burnett]: Yo, man, we ain't the Cosbys.

[Mike Lowrey]: Hey, hey, what's this having-a-picnic shit in my car? 

[Marcus Burnett]: Look man, I ain't getting my sex at home, OK? Don't deny me this. 

[Mike Lowrey]: What are you talking about, man? 

You sleep with a beautiful woman everyday. 

[Marcus Burnett]: I'm married. That's what married means. 

It means you sleep together, but you can't get none.

[Marcus Burnett]: You better do something quick, 'cause we're running out of road. 

[Mike Lowrey]: Who picked this dumb-ass road? 

On the goddamn road in Miami, *you* run out of it! 

[Marcus Burnett]: You better come up with an idea fast! 

[Mike Lowrey]: Why I gotta come up with all the ideas?
