Action

Action1999



Senator Powell:
Now you are perilously close to being cited for contempt, Mister Dragon!

Peter Dragon:
I'm already in contempt! I'm in contempt of all you old whores and hypocrites! At least I'm giving the American people what they want!

Senator Powell:
And just exactly what is it that you think they want?

Peter Dragon:
I'll tell "yew" exactly what they want, Senator: they want chase scenes and car crashes! They want firm breasts and tight-assed Latino men! They want their cowboys to be strong and silent. They want their cops to bend the rules to get the job done. They want the boy to get the girl. They want the alien to be killed... unless he's cute. They want the good guy to win. They want the bad guy to die, hopefully in the biggest explosion the budget will allow. But most importantly, Senator, they want to walk into a theater and for ninety minutes be able to forget about the f***ing mess you have left of this nation.
