Opening Sequence: In the First World War, and for the first time in the history of man, nations combined to fight against nations using the crude weapons of those days. The Second World War involved every continent on the globe, and men turned to science for new devices of warfare, which reached an unparalleled peak in their capacity for destruction. And now, fought with the terrible weapons of super-science, menacing all mankind and every creature on Earth, comes...The War of the Worlds! – The War of the Worlds Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Narrator: [opening lines] No one would have believed, in the middle of the 20th century, that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's. Yet, across the gulf of space on the planet Mars, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded our Earth with envious eyes, slowly and surely drawing their plans against us. Mars is more than 140 million miles from the sun, and for centuries it has been in the last stages of exhaustion. At night, temperatures drop far below zero even at its equator. The inhabitants of this dying planet looked across space with instruments and intelligences of which we have scarcely dreamed, searching for another world to which they could migrate. They could not go to Pluto, outermost of all the planets, so cold that its atmosphere lies frozen on its surface. They couldn't go to Neptune or Uranus, twin worlds in eternal night and perpetual cold, both surrounded by an unbreathable atmosphere of methane gas and ammonia vapor. The Martians considered Saturn, an attractive world with its many moons and beautiful rings of cosmic dust, but its temperature is close to 270 degrees below zero, and ice lies 15,000 miles deep on its surface. Their nearest world was giant Jupiter, where there are titanic cliffs of lava and ice with hydrogen flaming at the tops, where the atmospheric pressure is terrible - thousands of pounds to the square inch. They couldn't go there. Nor could they go to Mercury, nearest planet to the sun; it has no air, and the temperature at its equator is that of molten lead. Of all the worlds that the intelligences on Mars could see and study, only our own warm Earth was green with vegetation, bright with water, and possessed a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of fertility. It did not occur to mankind that a swift fate might be hanging over us, or that from the blackness of outer space we were being scrutinized and studied – until the time of our nearest approach to the orbit of Mars during a pleasant summer season. – The War of the Worlds Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Narrator: The Martians had calculated their descent upon our Earth with amazing perfection and subtlety. As more of their cylinders came from the mysterious depths of space, their war machines, awesome in their power and complexity, created a wave of fear which swept into all corners of the world. In every country, government officials met in desperate conclave, seeking ways to coordinate their defenses with those of other nations. The government of India, driven from New Delhi, met in a railroad coach, while massive Hindu populations streamed for the imagined safety of the faraway Himalayas. The redoubtable Finnish and Turkish armies, Chinese battalions and Bolivians worked and fought furiously. Every effort against the tremendous power of their other-world antagonists ended in the same frantic rout. As the Martians burned fields and forests, and great cities fell before them, huge populations were driven from their homes. The stream of flight rose swiftly to a torrent. It became a giant stampede without order and without goal. It was the beginning of the rout of civilization, of the massacre of humanity. A great silence fell over half of Europe, as all communication was disrupted. When the last wire photo out of Paris reached the French Cabinet, exiled in Strausberg, they hit upon the idea of using super-speed jets as couriers. Stripped of armament and loaded with extra fuel, these planes maintained connections with the Scandinavian countries, North Africa, the United States and especially with England. It was plain the Martians appreciated the strategic significance of the British Isles. The people of Britain met the invaders magnificently, but it was unavailing. As the Martians swept northward toward London, the British Cabinet stayed in session, coordinating every item of information that could be gathered, passing it on to the United Nations in New York. From there, the news was forwarded to Washington. Because here was the only remaining unassailed strategic point. – The War of the Worlds Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Narrator: [last lines] The Martians had no resistance to the bacteria in our atmosphere to which we have long since become immune. Once they had breathed our air, germs which no longer affect us began to kill them. The end came swiftly. All over the world, their machines began to stop and fall. After all that men could do had failed, the Martians were destroyed and humanity was saved by the littlest things which God, in His wisdom, had put upon this Earth. – The War of the Worlds Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Dr. Clayton Forrester: Those shells can't get through to them. They've put up some sort of electromagnetic covering, a protective blister. – The War of the Worlds Movie Quote	added 2 years ago

Cropsey: [Luther just made a phone call and is excited] Well? Luther: Some two-bit outfit almost got them, but they bopped their way past. Cropsey: We can meet them at the 96th street station. Luther: Yeah, platforms probably crawling with cops! Cropsey: Cops are trying to rack up every gang in this town! Luther: Yeah, you and me included. Cropsey: How come you're so happy about this? Luther: I'm having a good time. – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Mercy: See that dude? Over there! He's after you, and he's got some guys with him. Swan: [looks in their direction] I know they're on my ass, but now they know I know it. – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Mercy: [she kisses Swan and is disappointed when she doesn't get a reaction] Come on. What's wrong? Swan: [coldly] Let's just get to the next station, O.K.? Mercy: Oh... please, come on... come on. Swan: You know, you're just part of everything that's happening tonight, and it's all bad. [pause] Just go back to wherever it was you came from. – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Mercy: Friday nights are good. Saturday nights are better. Swan: I bet you can't even remember who you get on Friday and Saturday night... you probably don't remember what they look like... Mercy: Sometimes I can and sometimes I can't... who gives a damn? – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Masai: [addressing the Gramercy Riffs] Who are the Warriors? [no reply] There must be some word! [no reply] I want them all! I want ALL the Warriors! I want them alive, if possible. If not, wasted! But I want them. Send the word! – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Mercy: Yeah, that's right, Warriors. Just keep walkin'. Real tough muthas, ain't ya? You guys don't show me much. Why don't you dickheads just walk all the way back home, huh? – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
D.J.: [last lines] Good news, Boppers: The big alert has been called off. It turns out that the early reports were wrong, all wrong. Now for that group out there that had such a hard time getting home, sorry about that. I guess the only thing we can do is play you a song. [the Warriors theme song, "In the City" plays] – The Warriors Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
[Rorschach enters Doctor Manhattan's lab] Doctor Manhattan: [continuing his work unfazed] Good evening, Rorschach. Rorschach: Doctor Manhattan. You know why I'm here. Doctor Manhattan: Yes... [powers up device] but you're going to leave disappointed. Laurie: Rorschach! [enters room] You shouldn't be here, you're a wanted man. Rorschach: Nice to see you too, Silk Spectre. Laurie: I have a real name I've been using a couple years now. Try it. Rorschach: Whatever you say... Laurie. Laurie: What are you doing here? Doctor Manhattan: The Comedian is dead. Rorschach wants me to look into my future; see if the killer is ever publicly identified. Rorschach: Already warned Dreiberg. Came to warn you too. Doctor Manhattan: Even if I wanted to help, my future is blocked by some kind of temporal interference. I cannot see it clearly. Laurie: Interference? Caused by what? Doctor Manhattan: In all likelihood... nuclear holocaust. If the United States and Soviet Union engage in all-out war, the resulting blast wave would produce a sudden burst of tachyons, particles which travel backwards through what you perceive as time, therefore obscuring my vision of the present. I must return to my work. [turns away] Rorschach: Wait a minute. What if that's why someone wants us out of the way? So we can't do anything to stop it? Doctor Manhattan: Goodbye, Rorschach. Rorschach: Took a lot of effort to get in here to see you. I'm not leaving... [Doctor Manhattan transports him back outside] ...till I've had my say. Hurm. – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Adrian: Of course, my moral safeguards gave me pause at the necessary sacrifice. A few key regions around the globe... New York, Los Angeles, Moscow, Hong Kong. Disintegrated in an instant. Fifteen million people killed... by Dr. Manhattan himself. The world's punishment for flirting with World War III. Dan: Jon wouldn't do that. Adrian: A fact no one outside this room ever has to know. The energy breakthrough I was working on just came to fruition. All these years, Jon was helping me replicate his power, unaware of how I planned to use it. You see, the Comedian was right. Humanity's savage nature will inevitably lead to global annihilation. So in order to save this planet, I had to trick it with the greatest practical joke in human history. Killing millions, to save billions. A necessary crime. Rorschach: You know we can't let you do that. Adrian: "Do that", Rorschach? I'm not a comic-book villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my masterstroke to you if there were even the slightest possibility you could affect the outcome? I triggered it thirty-five minutes ago. – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Rorschach/Walter Kovacs: [on being unmasked] MY FACE! GIVE ME BACK MY FACE! – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Rorschach/Walter Kovacs: [on the whereabouts of his mask] WHERE'S MY FACE?! – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Rorschach/Walter Kovacs: [Final line to Dr. Manhattan who's about to kill him] Of course, you must protect Veidt's new utopia. What's one more body amongst the foundations? Well, what are you waiting for? Do it. DO IT! – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Doctor Manhattan/Dr. Jon Osterman: Janey accuses me of chasing jailbait. She bursts into angry tears, asking if it's because she's getting older. It's true. She's aging more noticeably every day... while I am standing still. I prefer the stillness here. I am tired of Earth. These people. I'm tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives. They claim their labours are to build a heaven, yet their heaven is populated with horrors. Perhaps the world is not made. Perhaps nothing is made. A clock without a craftsman. It's too late. Always has been. Always will be. Too late. – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
Doctor Manhattan/Dr. Jon Osterman: Your mind goes to dark places, and you wonder why I keep the worst from you. – Watchmen Movie Quote	added 2 years ago
