Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa

Alex The Lion:
My name is Alex. Ix! Like New York Knicks!

Alex The Lion:
How! Me Alex! Me and me friends fly, fly in great metal bird! Then... plummet! [imitates a falling bomb] Smash ground! Go boom! Here we emerge. We offer only happiness and good greetings.

Alex The Lion:
Apparently, lions don't dance.

Alex The Lion:
If you're in Manhattan, feel free to look us up!

Alex The Lion:
(To Marty) I broke your iPod!

Alex The Lion:
(To Marty when the plane's crashing) I'd just like to say Marty, You are truly a one in a million friend!

Moto Moto the Hippo:
I like 'em big... I like 'em Chunky...

Moto Moto the Hippo:
So nice, you gotta say it twice (holds up 3 fingers - in reference to his name)

Marty the Zebra:
That is definitely not Crackalackin!

Marty the Zebra:
I'm gonna kill you butt biter!

Marty the Zebra:
Right in the batteries!

Gloria the Hippo:
Who's your friend, or is that your butt?

Gloria the Hippo:
Hey, I can live with that.

Gloria the Hippo:
Manhattan is short on two things, parking and hippos.

Gloria the Hippo:
New York City, here we come baby!

Gloria the Hippo:
You're not gonna believe it but,Ha! I got a date with Moto Moto

Melman the Giraffe:
I've had a brainwave! Instead of going back, we could relax here for a few months!

Melman the Giraffe:
Listen, "Mototo". You love that perfect woman, okay?

Melman the Giraffe:
Don't worry, you can flirt around with Mr. Hot Pants after I'm gone

King Julien:
(hang from the light-fixture) You, inflight slave... Bring me my nuts on a silver platter.

King Julien:
My sacrifice goes in the volcano. Then, the friendly Gods eat up my sacrifice... "Mmm, very nice, thank you for the sacrifice..." "Please have another sacrifice!" "No, I've had enough for today..." "Listen I'm gonna be very insulted unless you have another." "I don't WANT ANOTHER SACRIFICE OK!?!?" "Look at you, you look skinny!" "No, I THINK I'VE HAD ENOUGH, IS THAT CLEAR?!"~ (Explaining the concept of sacrifice)

King Julien:
-"The gods eat the sacrifice, they are grateful. They give me some of the water, and I give it to you."-

King Julien:
If I, King Julien (that's my name), only had two days left to live, I would do all the things I have ever dreamed of doing. I would love to become a professional whistler. I'm pretty amazing at it now, but I wanna get, like, even better. Make my living out of it. (Makes fart sounds, spits attempting to whistle) And you know what else I would do? I would... invade a neighboring country and impose my own ideology even if they didn't want it!.

King Julien:
You're just a sad little head

King Julien:
Oh, who would leave a perfectly good head here

King Julien:
Such a happy little head...

King Julien:
What is that you're saying, Stevie? (Stevie licking in Julien's ear) Oh! Oh! Oh, huhu! No! *deep breath* Wait wait wait! NO, you didn't say that, how's that even POSSIBLE?! You NAUGHTY little THING!

King Julien:
Quick, to the volcano, before we all come to our senses!

King Julien:
Oh, suddenly throwing a giraffe into a volcano to make water is crazy?

King Julien:
Well, you've got to march right up to this woman, right? You look her right in the eye, you lean forward, right, just a little, just almost all the way, hm, then you let her lean forward just another little bit 'til you're just a lips distance away from each other, hm, and then you just tell her... how much you hate her.

King Julien:
(Aboard the plane, watching the television with Maurice in a room) Ha Ha, this is so funny, I like laughing! Its such a nice experience! (Melman enters) Excuse me, this is first class, its nothing personal, it's just that we're better than you.

King Julien:
(To Maurice when the plane is crash landing and everyone is screaming) Raise your arms, Maurice! It's more fun when you raise your hands like this! (in reference to the feeling of weightlessness)

King Julien:
(Just before entering the plane on Madagascar) Hey freaks, you will be glad to know that I will be going with you (Alex : Uh!, No thank you) Hmm, yes thank you, it's my plane

King Julien:
"(After being blown out of plane and deploying parachute)" I can fly!

King Julien:
"(After being blown out of plane and deploying parachute)" LONG LIVE ME!!!!

King Julien:
(In the volcano when the sacrifice didn't work) I don't know why the sacrifice didn't work.

Nana (the old lady):
Bring it on!

Nana (the old lady):
Bad kitty.

Nana (the old lady):
We're New Yorkers. When we need food, we hunt for a decent hot dog stand! When we need water, we build a dam! When we need shelter, we build skyscrapers!

Nana (the old lady):
(Sees Makunga with her handbag and gasps) My handbag! You bad kitty!

Nana (the old lady):
You hoodlums!

Skipper:
Attention passengers, this is your captain speaking. I've got good news and bad news. The good news is we're landing immediately. The bad news? We're crash-landing. (Plane begins to fall) When it comes to air-travel, we know you have no choice whatsoever. But thank you for flying Air Penguin!

Skipper:
I'm trying! Can't you see these commies have my hands tied!

Skipper:
Maternity leave?! You're all males!

Skipper:
Reverse. Gas. Music.

Skipper:
(to the doll, during the plane dive) My goodness, Doll, you're shaking like a leaf. (turning) Rico! You had your fun. Pull up!

Skipper:
(to Rico as they try to land) Gently now. You just wanna kiss the ground. Just a little peck, a smooch like you're kissing your sister. (plane slams against the ground and the wooden landing gear breaks off) I said kiss it!

Skipper:
Men, there is no sacrifice greater than someone elses

Private:
In case of a loss of cabin pressure, place the mask over your face [puts on mask & begins speaking indistinctly] to hide your terrified expression away from the other passengers.

Private:
If the event of a water emergency, place the life vest over your head and kiss your [pulls on tab, causing life vest to explode] goodbye.

Private:
May I kiss the bride, Skipper

Private:
Darn you ,Darwin!

Alex:
I like to move it, move it!

Gloria:
He likes to move it, move it!

Marty:
She likes to move it, move it!

Melman:
We like to...

Lemurs:
MOVE IT! [begin celebrating]

[looking out over the African plain]

Gloria:
Am I trippin'?

Marty:
Look at all the zebras! Like me! Where are we?

Melman:
San Diego. This time I'm forty percent sure.

Alex:
I know this place.

Marty:
I think its Africa. Our ancestral grid! It's in our blood, I can feel it!

Alex:
No, no. It's more than that. It's like, deja vu, like I've... like I've been here before.

Marty:
It's like Roots!

Alex:
(dazed) No, no. It's like, deja vu, like I've... like I've been here before.

Julien:
What ever happened to the separation of the classes?

Maurice:
Don't worry, I'm sure this democracy thing is just a fad.

Gloria:
Is this place great, or what?

Alex:
I'd go with 'or what.'

Marty (kid):
I think he's a bit of a show off.

Alex:
She's got a gun! Let's get out while we can! Pass it on.

[chimpanzees chatter the message all the way up the chain]

Mason:
He said, 'Let's have some fun and take out the dam. Basset hound.'

Alex:
Tell them, no! Pull up! They'll kill us! There's got to be another way! Pass it on.

[The chimpanzes chatter the message all the way up the chain]

Mason:
They said, 'No pull up, kill us! There's no other way. Basset Hound.'

Marty:
Are you sure?

[Makunga encounters Zuba in a flashback]

Makunga:
Look at it this way. After I defeat you and take your place as alpha lion, you'll have that much more time to spend with your pathetic excuse of a son.

Zuba:
Before I kick your butt again, tell me why you want to be alpha lion?

Makunga:
I'm better looking, I have better hair, I'm deceitfully smart, and I want everyone to do what I say.

[The red bulb on the plane's fuel guage is flashing]

Kowalski:
Skipper, look.

Skipper:
Analysis.

Kowalski:
It looks like a small incandescent bulb, designed to indicate something out of the ordinary, like a malfunction.

Skipper:
I find it pretty and somewhat hypnotic.

Kowalski:
That too, sir.

Skipper:
Right. Rico, manual! [catches the manual and promptly smashes the bulb with it] Problemo solved.

Kowalski:
Sir, we may be out of fuel.

Skipper:
What makes you think that?

Kowalski:
We've lost engine 1, [out the left window, engine #1 sputters out] and engine two is no longer on fire. [out the right window, engine stops smoking and sputters]

Skipper:
Buckle up, boys. [covers the "Doll" head] Don't look, doll, this might get hairy. [on the intercom] This is your captain speaking. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we will be landing immediately. [everyone said "Yes."] The bad news is, we're crash landing. [plane halts] When it comes to air travel, we know that you have no choice whatsoever! But thanks again for choosing Air Penguin!

[Private is giving a safety demonstration to the passengers]

Private:
[shows life vest] In the event of a water emergency, place the vest over your head, and kiss your [pulls on the red tab, causing the vest to inflate and explode] goodbye.

[The penguins in the cockpit make several announcements while Mort tries to get in but gets blown away]

Private:
In case of a loss in cabin pressure, place the mask over your face [places oxygen mask over his face, muffling his voice] to hide your terrified expression from the other passengers.

Marty:
[showing his detached seatbelt] Excuse me, miss, but aren't these supposed to be attached to my seat?

Private:
[removes the mask] No sir.

Skipper:
[speaking about how long it will take to repair the plane] It will take six to nine months.

Alex:
Sixty-nine months?!

Skipper:
No, six TO nine months.

[The union monkeys have gone on strike. Mason and Phil are with Skipper at the negotiating table]

Mason:
The plane won't be fixed until the suits meet our demands. Now, about maternity leave.

Skipper:
Maternity leave? [glances under the table] You're all male...

Marty:
Look, we need that plane for a rescue mission.

Skipper:
Well, there's nothing I can do until we bust up this union.

Gloria:
I'm gonna get to bustin' up all you if you don't get this plane going!

Skipper:
Can't you see these commies have my hands tied, here? NO maternity leave! [Mason nudges Phil, who pulls out incriminating photos of Skipper and "Doll" in compromising positions]

Mason:
Maybe a certain someone wouldn't want these blowing around the savanna?

Skipper:
[reluctantly] All right, you get your maternity leave.

Trivia:
This, along with Soul Men, was Bernie Mac's last film performance. Therefore, this film is dedicated to him. The credits include a dedication: "For our friend Bernie Mac. Thanks for all the laughter."

Trivia:
Alex's family birth-mark is shaped like the continent of Africa, including the island of Madagascar. The birth-mark was not visible in first Madagascar movie.

Trivia:
The aircraft used in the escape attempt is based on a Lockheed L-10 Electra, similar to one used by Amelia Earhart.

Moto Moto:
[raspy voice] Goodness, girl, you're huge.

Gloria:
Who's your friend or is that your butt?

Alex:
Dad! Look out!

Zuba:
What the...

Marty:
Alex! Get in.

Alex:
She’s got a gun! Let’s get out while we can.

Marty:
What.

Alex:
She's got a gun! Let's get out while we can! Pass it on.

[chimpanzees chatter the message all the way up the chain]

Mason:
He said, "Let's have some fun and take out the dam. Basset hound."

Murray:
You'll find a cure. Hey! You've got at least 48 hours!

Nana:
That was beautiful. Now let's eat!

Alex:
Dad! Look out!

Zuba:
What the...?

Marty:
Alex! Get in!

Alex:
She’s got a gun! Let’s get out while we can!

Marty:
What?

Alex:
She's got a gun! Let's get out while we can! Pass it on.

[chimpanzees chatter the message all the way up the chain]

Mason:
He said, "She's got a gun, Let's get out while we can. Basset hound."

Marty:
Skipper! Alex wants to take out the dam!

Skipper:
Alright. [on the intercom] It's his funeral.

Marty:
What?

Skipper:
[on the intercom] Hard to port!

Gloria:
Aye aye, Skippy!

Melman:
Bring it on! Bring it on! Whoo!

Nana:
Come back! That's my dinner!

Skipper:
Kowalski, full throttle. Music! (Private puts in a tape that plays "At The Copa (Copacabana)" by Barry Manilow.)

Private:
Oh, I like this song.

Kowalski:
It never gets old.

Skipper:
It does have a catchy hook. Come about! Bring her in low! [on the intercom] Hold on to your skirts! It's dam-busting time!

Gloria:
Hold on tight, baby! Here we go!

Alex:
Tell them No! Pull up! They'll kill us! There's got to be another way! Pass it on.

[The chimpanzees chatter the message all the way up the chain]

Mason:
They said, "Pull up; They'll kill us! There's got to be another way. Basset Hound."

Marty:
Are you sure?

Skipper:
Men, there's no sacrifice greater than someone else's.

Alex:
This could be it, Marty! I just want you to know you were truly, a one-in-a million friend!

Marty:
Thanks, buddy! You're the best ever!

Alex:
I know you won't mind when I tell you…

Marty:
Go on, tell me anything! Tell me what?

Alex:
I broke your iPod!

Marty:
WHAT?!

Alex:
The buttons were so small! It made me mad!

Marty:
Oh, no! The horror!

Alex:
I'm sorry!

Marty:
I'm gonna kill you, butt-bitter! Butt-bitter! Butt-bitter!

Alex:
It was an accident! I'm sorry! I'll get you a new one!

Melman:
I love you, Gloria! I always have! [Gloria is snoring, Alex and Marty glare at Melman quizzically] Yeah, like you love the beach, or a good book. Or the beach.

Skipper:
My goodness Doll, you're shaking like a leaf. Rico! You've had your fun. Pull up. [Rico pulls up]

Rico:
All right, I'll pull up.

Skipper:
Gear down. [Kowalski pulls a lever that deploys the landing gear] Gently now. You just want to kiss the ground. Just a little peck. A smooch. Like you're kissing your sister. [the landing gear breaks]

Rico:
What did you say?

Skipper:
I said kiss it! [the wings, engines, and the hull of the plane break off] Now just a little brake. Just a touch. A little whisper.

Mason:
[while playing chess with Phil] I believe that's checkmate. [Alex and Marty scream]

Skipper:
Commence emergency landing procedure! Flaps up! Deploy! [Kowalski and Rico deploy the parachutes that make the plane land gently]

Kowalski:
Skipper, we have all the parts we need. But, we're slightly behind schedule.

Skipper:
How slightly?

Kowalski:
6 to 9 years.

Skipper:
69 years?

Kowalski:
No. 6 to 9 years.

Skipper:
[on the intercom] Private, what happened to our thumbs?

Private:
Haven't seen them since yesterday sir. [drops his screwdriver] Darn you Darwin! [the car's hood closes on him]

Skipper:
Nobody goes AWOL on my watch. Private! You're coming with me! [the inside of the front of the car explodes] Rico! You're coming with me! [Rico welds a car in half]

Rico:
Yes, Skipper.

Skipper:
We'll track them down and bring them in for court martial.

Mason:
That won't be necessary. We've recruited a few extra thumbs for you, Skipper. [camera pans to a whole lot of chimpanzees]

Skipper:
Well I'll be a monkey's uncle.

Mason:
Oh, I doubt that. [chimpanzees screeching]

Skipper:
[on the intercom] Enough lollygagging. Now let's get to work. We'll divide into three groups. Group Alpha, you're in charge of sheet metal fabrication. Group Bronson, you'll handle assembly. Group George Peppard, you'll handle craft services. Any questions? [Mason tries to say something] Good, now let's get to work.

[first lines during the DreamWorks Animation logo]

Skipper:
Well done, boys. Looks like ice-cold sushi for breakfast.
