Zoom - Understanding Alter Egos in Conversation

Jack Shepard: Cindy, what are you wearing?
Cindy Collins: It's my alter eggo.
Jack Shepard: You mean your "alter ego"?
Cindy Collins: I'm a princess.
Jack Shepard: Cindy, you're not a princess.
Cindy Collins: But I look pretty.
Jack Shepard: Yeah, but pretty girls don't have any real friends and they never get any respect. I mean, take Miss Holloway for instance.
Dr. Grant: [Cindy throws the 2.5-ton object] Scatter.
Jack Shepard: Nice toss, Cindy. Yeah, really good. Why don't you get a juice box and, uh, and a Rice Krispy treat?

3000 Miles to Graceland - Unexpected Origins of Beauty

Cybil Waingrow: This looks Beautiful.
Murphy: It's one of my favorite pieces.
Cybil Waingrow: Yeah. Where's it from?

Cybil Waingrow: Excuse me.
Murphy: It's an African piece.
Cybil Waingrow: Looks Egyptian to me.

Scream 3 - Confrontation Over a Deadly Legacy

Roman Bridger: [shocked] I shot you!
Sidney Prescott: I guess we think alike.
Roman Bridger: [chuckles painfully] Mother's dead. And there's nothing you can do about that. I still got to make my movie.
Sidney Prescott: [completely unfazed at Roman's words] Stab 3, right?
Gale Weathers: Roman? It was Roman?!
Deputy Dewey Riley: Be careful, Sid. Randy said the killer's always superhuman.
Sidney Prescott: Yeah, well, he wasn't superhuman, Dewey. He wasn't superhuman at all.
Roman Bridger: Fuck! You can't fucking kill me!!
Sidney Prescott: Head! Head! HEAD, DEWEY!
Deputy Dewey Riley: [turns to Sidney.] What?!
Sidney Prescott: HEAD! Shoot him in the head!
Deputy Dewey Riley: Thanks.
Sidney Prescott: No problem.

Scream VI - A Mysterious Call from the Killer

Gale's boyfriend: [Answers the phone; To Gale] That'll be our food. Hello? Not the food, it's for you.
Gale Weathers: Who is it?
Gale's boyfriend: [To Gale] May I ask who's calling, please? He says it's the killer.
Ghostface: Hello, Gale. Strange that you and I have never spoken on the phone. This is long overdue.
Gale Weathers: [To her boyfriend] I agree. Call the police.
Ghostface: I figured, after all these years, you’d want an interview.
Gale Weathers: You figured right. So, what's your motive this time? You angry at the movies or are you just trying to stay relevant?
Ghostface: I could ask you the same. Don’t you know? The legacy characters are disposable now. No one cares about last century’s heroes.
Gale Weathers: Why bother with me at all?
Ghostface: Call it nostalgia. Or maybe you deserve to be punished for all that money you made off the misery of others. Maybe it’s time someone made a buck reporting your death.
Gale Weathers: You know you're, like, the tenth guy to try this, right? And spoiler alert, it never works out for the dipshit in a mask.
Ghostface: Oh, but they certainly leave a mark before they go, don’t they? Richie and Amber managed to butcher Dewey, carved him up like a Christmas goose. How does it feel to lose the only man who ever loved you?
Gale Weathers: [struggling to stay cool upon hearing Ghostface's words] Fuck you!
Ghostface: How does it feel to know that you weren’t there for him at the end? Not there to give him comfort, ‘cause he died screaming in his own guts.
Gale Weathers: [tearful] You're the one who's gonna die screaming.
Ghostface: Maybe, but you won’t be around to see it. You couldn’t stop what happened to Dewey, just like you’re not gonna be able to stop this.
Gale Weathers: How's that for nostalgia, fucker?!
Ghostface: You missed.
Gale Weathers: Sure I did.
Ghostface: [speaking quickly] You win. I’m in the elevator, heading for the ground floor.
Gale Weathers: [Fires two shots] Sure you are.
Ghostface: [sounding wounded; Speaks normally] Maybe...you did hit me. Maybe I’m wounded. Or maybe I’m wearing a bulletproof vest.
Gale Weathers: That's why I'm gonna shoot you in the fucking head!
Ghostface: You would’ve made a good killer, Gale. Sidney never would've made sense, and Dewey was the fan favorite. But you cracking under the pressure and turning into Ghostface would’ve been a great twist.
Gale Weathers: Keep talking, asshole.
Ghostface: [chuckles] Sure. What do you want to talk about? You never got to be the leading lady, did you? It was always all about poor, sweet Sidney sucking up all the oxygen. Where did that leave you to be?
Gale Weathers: The brains and the sex appeal?
Ghostface: Sorry about your boyfriend. All those muscles didn’t help much.
Gale Weathers: [Ghostface resumes chuckling] They sure didn't. Can you hold, please?
Ghostface: [stops chuckling] Huh?

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective - Tension Builds in the Water Tank Scene

Roger Podacter: [Roger exits while Melissa talks to Ace] Aw, great! I'll see if I can head them off.
Melissa Robinson: Ace. Get out of the tank.
Ace: [Imitating the Star Trek character Scotty] I just can't do it, Captain! I don't have the power!
Crowd: Podacter!
Roger: People!
Melissa Robinson: I said, get out of the tank, NOW.
Ace: [Imitates the Star Trek character Dr. McCoy] For god's sakes, Jim, I'm a DOCTOR! Not a pool man!

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective - Introducing Ace to Ronald Camp

Ronald Camp: Who is he, a friend?
Melissa Robinson: No, this is--this is my date. He's a lawyer.
Camp: Well, does he have a name, or should I call him "lawyer"?
Robinson: No, this is Ace. Um, Tom Ace.
Ventura: Tom Ace. Pleasure to meet you Mr. Camp, and congratulations on all your success. You smell terrific. I was just telling Melissa that one of the first things we learned back at Stanford Law was the modern proliferation of food poisoning claims against wealthy private homeowners. In fact, if one were so inclined, one could make quite a lucrative law practice with little else. How is everyone feeling tonight?
Camp: [nervously] Very, very well, thank you.
Ventura: [to Melissa; looks suspiciously at Camp] Oh. Look, honey, there's the hors d'oeuvres.

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective - Unexpected Introductions in Pet Detective

Roger Podactor: Who's he?
Melissa Robinson: Roger Podactor, meet Ace Ventura. He's our pet detective.
Podactor: [shakes Ace's hand.] Nice to meet you, you were highly recommended by Martha Metz.
Ace Ventura: Martha Metz? Oh, yeah, the bitch!
Podactor: What?
Ventura: [looks at the tank area; walks off, leaving Melissa and Roger standing in disbelief] Pekingese, hyperactive, lost in Highland Park area. She was half-dead when I found her. Is that the tank? Excuse me.

Masters of the Universe - The Journey of Eternia's Guardians

Sorceress: [gives Julie a glowing blue crystal] Julie, keep this with you, and Eternia will always be near.
Julie Winston: Thank you. He-Man, Teela, Man-At-Arms...
Teela: Don't say goodbye. Say Good Journey.
Man-At-Arms: It is an old Eternian saying. Live the journey, for every destination is but a doorway to another.
Julie Winston: Good Journey.

Masters of the Universe - Reality vs. Fantasy in Desire for Change

Scream 2 - Uncertainty Surrounds Character's Fate

Gale Weathers: [checking Mrs. Loomis' body.] Is she dead?
Sidney Prescott: I don't know. They always come back.
Sidney Prescott: Just in case.

Scream 2 - Analyzing the Killer's Patterns in Woodsboro

Gale Weathers: Sorry. All right, let's just assume the killer is repeating Woodsboro...
Gale's Agent: [on the phone] I have Bob calling.
Gale Weathers: [hangs up phone] I'll have to call you back.
Randy Meeks: That doesn't explain Sidney's attack. Sidney wasn't killed in Woodsboro. Wasn't for a lack of trying. The killer is trying to finish what was started.
Gale Weathers: Well, Sid's under protection, right?
Gale's Agent: [on the phone] Bob really needs to talk to you.
Gale Weathers: [hangs up phone] Tell Bob I'll call him back.
Deputy Dewey Riley: When'd she start smoking?
Randy Meeks: Ever since those nude pictures on the Internet.
Gale Weathers: It was just my head. It was Jennifer Aniston's body. Anyway, you're forgetting something. In Woodsboro, there were more victims before the homestretch.; Tatum, my cameraman, Himbry...---
Joel: Time out! I don't need to be hearing about no dead cameramen, all right? Now I'm warning you, guys. I am a verb away from vacating these premises. I'm gonna get me some coffee, donuts, Prozac, see if I can find some crack, Special KX, not Malcolm, and I'll be back when you guys start talking about something a little more Saved By The Bell-ish, all right?
Deputy Dewey Riley: He seems a little shaky.
Gale Weathers: Don't worry about him. If the killer is following a pattern, maybe we can figure out who's next.
Deputy Dewey Riley: I wouldn't follow a killer's pattern. We were all involved in Woodsboro. Could be any one of us.
Gale Weathers: So what do you wanna do, bonehead? Sit here, wait and see who drops next?
Deputy Dewey Riley: [Gale's phone rings again] Well, I don't know... "Phonehead"!
Randy Meeks: Gale's not here!---
Phone Voice: [laughs evilly] I'm not interrupting anything, am I? You three look deep in thought. Have you ever felt a knife cut through human flesh and scrape the bone beneath?
Randy Meeks: It's him.
Deputy Dewey Riley: Who?
Randy Meeks: The killer. He can see us.
Deputy Dewey Riley: Just keep him on the phone.
Randy Meeks: What do you want me to say?
Deputy Dewey Riley: I-I don't know. Just keep him talking. Come on, Gale.
Randy Meeks: Uh...hi.
Gale Weathers: What are we doing?
Deputy Dewey Riley: Look for somebody with a cell phone.
Randy Meeks: So, uh... what's your favorite scary movie?
Phone Voice: You'll never find me.
Randy Meeks: What do you care? Let em have their fun. So, uh... what's up?
Phone Voice: What's your favorite scary movie?
Randy Meeks: Showgirls. Absolutely frightening. What's yours? Wait. Let me guess. The House on Sorority Row? The dorm that dripped blood? Splatter university? Graduation day? Final exam? Am I close?
Phone Voice: [A random person bumps into Randy] Closer than you think. Too slow, geek. Do you want to die?
Randy Meeks: Is that the best you can do? Because Billy and Stu were much more original.
Phone Voice: Why are you even here, Randy? You'll never be the leading man.
Randy Meeks: FUCK! YOU!
Phone Voice: No matter how hard you try, you'll never be the hero and you'll never, ever get the girl.
Randy Meeks: Sorry.
Phone Voice: Wrong guy, dead boy.
Randy Meeks: Oh, yeah? Well, let's re-direct the moment, Mr. I'm So Original. Huh? Where's your motivation? Huh? Why copycat two high school loser ass dickheads? Stu was a pussy-ass wet rag. And Billy Loomis? Billy Loomis, what the fuck? Jesus! What a rat-looking, homo-repressed momma's boy! Why not set your goals higher, huh? You wanna be one of the big boys? Huh? Manson, Bundy, O.J, Son of...

Scream 2 - Gale Seeks Conversation with Sidney

Gale Weathers: Hello, Sidney.
Gale Weathers: How are you?
Sidney Prescott: Hi... What do you want, Gale?
Gale Weathers: Well, I was hoping I might get just a few words with you.
Cotton Weary: Hi, Sidney.
Gale Weathers: [reporting] Here we are at Windsor College, where Sidney Prescott has just been reunited with Cotton Weary for the first time, since she wrongly accused him of murdering her mother."---
Sidney Prescott: [interrupts her interview] What the hell are you doing?
Gale Weathers: [continues her interview] We want to know how you feel? Tell us everything that's happened, looking back on the last two years?
Cotton Weary: Uh Sidney, I'd just like to say that I forgive and forget. And just like you, I'd like to get back on with my own life.
Gale Weathers: [reporting] Do you have any comments?
Sidney Prescott: [lunging at Gale] You... bitch!---
Derek Feldman: [stops Sidney and calms her down] Whoa, Hey, hey, hey hey, Deep breaths, Lot of deep breaths.
Gale Weathers: [Sidney turns around and punches Gale in the face] Oh Sidney, share with us, please!---
Sidney Prescott: [lunges at Gale] I'll share with you!
Derek Feldman: Okay, okay, okay.
Hallie McDaniel: [to Joel] Did you get that on film?
Joel: [mocks Hallie while recording] Yes, I got that on film"!

Scream 2 - Fan Appreciation for an Author's Work

Debbie Salt: Excuse me, Ms. Weathers? Um? Could I have a minute?
Debbie Salt: Just one second. I-I know you probably get this all the time, but I just wanted to say I am such a big fan of your work. I just finished your book. I-I couldn't put it down. Insightful, probing... I just really, really loved your book.
Gale Weathers: Thank you.
Gale Weathers: [she is about to leave, but Debbie follows her] Thanks.
Debbie Salt: [shakes Gale's hand] I'm a writer myself. I write for the local paper, for the Post Telegram. I'm Debbie Salt. I took your seminar in Chicago last year. I was the one in the front row asking all the questions.
Gale Weathers: Right. I thought you looked familiar.
Debbie Salt: Oh, thank you. Um, can't wait to see the movie. You know, you must be getting quite a lot of flak on that, right? I mean, with all the violence-in-cinema issues. What is your position going to be?
Gale Weathers: No comment.
Debbie Salt: [Gale stops] Miss Weathers, please... I-I would... It would be such an honor for me if I could just get a quote from you for my story.---
Gale Weathers: Okay. Begin quote:
Debbie Salt: Great.
Gale Weathers: [quoting] Your flattering remarks are both desperate and obvious.
