Paddington 2 - Paddington's Impact on Windsor Gardens

Mr. Curry: [into megaphone] We don't want him here.
Henry Brown: No, of course you don't. YOU never have! As soon as you set eyes on that bear you made up your mind about him. Well Paddington's not like that. He looks for the good in all of us and somehow, he finds it! It's why he makes friends wherever he goes. And it's why Windsor Gardens is a happier place whenever he's around. He wouldn't hesitate if any of us needed help! So stand aside, Mr. Curry. Cause we're coming through!

Paddington 2 - The Discovery of the Attic

Mary Brown: A secret room!
Henry Brown: It's an attic.
Mary Brown: A secret attic!
Henry Brown: It's an ordinary attic.
Henry Brown: [sees Phoenix's many costumed mannequins] Every house on the street has one. See? Just a perfectly normal... Oh my god, he's a weirdo!

Paddington 2 - Disagreement Over Breaking and Entering

Henry Brown: [following Mary into Phoenix's house] This is breaking and entering!
Mary Brown: We haven't broken anything!

Paddington 2 - Miscommunication Among Unsuspecting Characters

Henry Brown: [flips what he thinks is the microphone switch] Would you excuse us a moment? What are you doing?
Mary Brown: Talking to the nice men.
Henry Brown: Nice men? Mary, we can't trust these people. I mean look at them! Talk about a rogues gallery. Hideous! And as for that bearded baboon in the middle, he's hardly got two brain cells to rub together.
Knuckles McGinty: We can still hear you, Mr. Brown. That was the light you turned off. The microphone is on the other side. It's got microphone written on it.
Henry Brown: [awkwardly] ...gentlemen.

Paddington 2 - Change and Loss in Relationships

Mary Brown: What happened to the man I married? He'd have believed me.
Henry Brown: Oh, him. He's gone.

Paddington 2 - Preparing for the Workplace

Paddington: Have you ever been fired, Mr. Brown?
Henry Brown: Well, no. But, er...are you, you quite sure you're ready for the workplace, Paddington?

Paddington 2 - Age Perception and Friendship in Paddington 2

Paddington: I think you're in great shape for a man your age, Mr. Brown.
Henry Brown: Oh, thank you, Paddington... Hang on, how old do you think I am?
Paddington: Oh, about 80.

Paddington in Peru - Missing Bear Reported in the Jungle

Henry Brown: I'd like to report a missing bear, please. Brown eyes, brown fur. Yes, we've lost a jungle bear in the jungle.

Paddington - Communication Breakdown and Unexpected Issues

Henry Brown: [slams on door] Yes, hello. Yes, that sounds fine. No-no-no-no-no-no, don't read me the terms and conditions. I really want to action this as soon as possible. No, don't put me hold on again! Paddington, what is going on in there?
Paddington: Uh, nothing. Ah, I'm just having a spot of bother with the facilities.

Notting Hill - Judgments on Celebrity Relationships and Appearances

William: So what do you think? Good move?
Honey: Good move. When all is said and done, she's nothing special. I saw her taking her trousers down and I definitely glimpsed some cellulite down there.
Bella: Good decision. All actresses are as mad as snakes.
William: Tony, what do you think?
Tony: Never met her, never want to.
William: Brilliant. Max?
Max: Absolutely. Never trust a vegetarian.
William: Great. Thanks. Brilliant.
Spike: I was called and I came. What's up?
Honey: William's just turned down Anna Scott.
Spike: [shocked] You daft prick!
Honey: No, no, no, no, it's actually quite sensible.
Bella: [looks at the painting of the Chagall that Anna gave William] That painting isn't the original, is it?
William: Umm, yeah, I think it might be.
Bernie: But she said she wanted to go out with you?
William: Yes...sort of...
Bernie: That's nice.
William: What?
Bernie: Well, you know, anyone saying they want to go out with you is...pretty great...isn't it?
William: [pause; Spike nods. Another pause] It was sort of sweet, actually- um, I mean, I know she's an actress and all that, so she can deliver a line, but she said she might be as famous as can be, but also...that she was just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her. Oh, sod a dog, I've made the wrong decision, haven't I? Max, how fast is your car?
