X-Men: The Last Stand - Organizing for Mutant Rights and Recognition
Mutant Theatre Organizer:
How should we, as mutants, respond? Here's what I think. This is about getting organized. Bringing our complaints to the right people. We need to put together a committee and talk to the government.
Mutant Theatre Organizer:
They don't understand. They don't know what it means to be a mutant. We need to show them, educate them, let them know that we're here to stay.
Mutant Theatre Organizer:
People, you must listen. They won't take us seriously–
Psylocke:
They want to exterminate us!
Mutant Theatre Organizer:
This cure is voluntary. Nobody's talking about extermination.–
Magneto:
No one ever talks about it.
Magneto: [both walk to the stage]
They just do it. And you go on with your lives, ignoring the signs all around you. And then one day, when the air is still and the night is fallen, they come for you.
Mutant Theatre Organizer: [interrupting]
Excuse me–
Magneto: [walks away with Pyro following]
Only then do you realize that while you're talking about organizing and committees, the extermination has already begun. Make no mistake, my brothers, they will draw first blood. They will force their cure upon us. The only question is, will you join my brotherhood and fight or await the inevitable genocide. Who will you stand with, the humans or us?

The Witch - Questions of Faith and Purpose in Wilderness
William: [before the court]
What went we out into this wilderness to find? Leaving our country, kindred, our fathers houses? We have travailed a vast ocean. For what? For what?
Governor:
We must ask thee to be silent!
William:
Was it not for the pure and faithful dispensation of the Gospels, and the Kingdom of God?
Old Slater:
No more! We are your judges, and not you ours!
William:
I cannot be judged by false Christians, for I have done nothing, save preach Christ's true Gospel.
Governor:
Must you continue to dishonor the laws of the commonwealth and the church with your prideful conceit?
William:
If my conscience sees it fit.
Governor:
Then shall you be banished out of this plantation's liberties!
William:
I would be glad of it.
Governor:
Then take your leave, and trouble us no further.
William: [turning to leave]
How sadly hath The Lord testified against you. Katherine...
Caleb:
Thomasin! Come.

Man of Steel - Zod's Defiance Against His Sentence
Lor-Em:
General Zod, for the crimes of murder and high treason, the council has sentenced you and your fellow insurgents to 300 cycles of somatic reconditioning. Do you have any last words?
General Zod: [He spits at him in disgust; He approaches Lara but is held back by a guard]
You won't kill us yourself! You wouldn't sully your hands, but you'll damn us to a black hole for eternity! Jor-El was right! You're a pack of fools! Every last one of you! And you...You believe your son is safe? I will find him. I will reclaim what you have taken from us! I will find him. I will find him, Lara. I WILL FIND HIM!

Man of Steel - Krypton's Impending Doom and Possible Escape
Jor-El:
Will you not understand? Krypton's core is collapsing. We may only have a matter of weeks. I warned you, harvesting the core was suicide. It has accelerated the process of implosion.
Lor-Em:
Our energy reserves were exhausted. What would you have us do, El?
Jor-El:
Look to the stars, like our ancestors did. There are habitable worlds within reach. We can begin by using the old outposts.
Ro-Zar:
Are you seriously suggesting that we evacuate the entire planet?
Jor-El:
No, everybody here is already dead! Give me control of the Codex. I will ensure the survival of our race. There is still hope. I have held that hope in my hands.
General Zod:
This council has been disbanded!
Ro-Zar:
On whose authority?
General Zod:
Mine.
General Zod:
The rest of you will be tried and punished accordingly.
Jor-El:
What are you doing, Zod? This is madness!
General Zod:
What I should have done years ago. These lawmakers with their endless debates have led Krypton to ruin.
Jor-El:
And if your forces prevail, you'll be the leader of nothing!
General Zod:
Then join me. Help me save our race. We'll start anew. We'll sever the degenerative bloodlines that led us to this state.
Jor-El:
And who will decide which bloodlines survive, Zod? You?
General Zod:
Don't do this, El. The last thing I want is for us to be enemies.
Jor-El:
You have abandoned the principles that bound us together. You've taken up the sword against your own people. I will honor the man you once were, Zod. Not this monster you have become.
