Event Horizon - The Promise and Peril of Black Holes
Starck:
Black Hole - the most destructive force in the universe - and you have created one?
Weir:
Absolutely, yes! Because we can use that immense power to bend space-time—look, it would take the Lewis and Clark a thousand years to reach the nearest star. The Event Horizon could be there in a day!
Starck:
If it worked ...
Weir: [Descending to the black hole generator]
You can come down, it is perfectly safe!

King Ralph - Royal Travel Destinations Discussed in Conversation
Princess Anna:
Mummy, Daddy and I have been to all the places the royals go. Cairo, Singapore, Gstaad, Aspen, Paris and of course Ascot.
King Ralph:
Ascot? Where is that?
Princess Anna:
England.
Sir Cedric:
How's it going, Your Majesty?
Ralph:
Great. We've got nothing in common and she's got a voice like a tuba. If she had her way, we'd have sex on a bed of nails on national television. But at least the party stinks.

101 Dalmatians - A Dispute Over Puppies and Money
Anita:
Cruella, the puppies have to be with their mother for several weeks. They're not ready to leave.
Cruella:
Fine. Put the little brutes on reserve for me. How much would you like?
Roger:
They're not for sale.
Cruella:
Oh? You've come into some money, have you? Did you design some silly game that will drive the delinquent kiddies into frenzies of video delight?
Roger:
As a matter of fact, I have...
Anita:
No, no, what Roger means to say is that we're not sure we're going to sell the puppies.
Cruella: [offers to buy the puppies; writes out a check]
Anita, don't be ridiculous! You can't possibly afford to keep them. I'll pay you twice what they're worth. Come now. I'm being more than generous. £500! £7,500! Fair? £2 per spot.
Anita:
But, Cruella, what would you do with 15 puppies?
Roger:
That's irrelevant, Anita. She can't have any cause they're not for sale!
Cruella:
I'm getting very tired of you, Roland!
Roger:
Roger.
Cruella: [holds out a £7,500 check]
Whatever. Take it.
Cruella: [quietly]
Take it.
Cruella: [loudly]
Take it!
Anita: [calmly]
Cruella... the puppies are not for sale.
Cruella: [resignedly]
You're quite... sure?
Roger and Anita:
Yes.
Cruella: [furiously; rips the check; exits]
All right. Keep the little beasts. Do what you want with them. Drown them, for all I care! You're a fool, Anita! I've no use for fools. You're fired! You're finished! You'll never work in fashion again! I'm through with all of you! I'll get even! Just wait! You'll be sorry, you fools! You idiots!
