I Hear Everything



"If Lois is Truly in Love
I won't stand in the way!

Once I'm sure she's safe and happy
I'll step out of her life forever!

But now I must look after her!
She's too impetuous!"


Lois interviews Superman | Superman Returns

Superman :
You know, you really
shouldn't smoke, Miss Lane.

Sorry. Didn't mean to startle you.


Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
No, I'm fine. Really.
I just wasn't expecting — you.

Superman :
With all the press on the plane...
I wasn't sure it was the best time for us to talk.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Well, there's no press around now.
Except for me, of course.

Superman :
I know people are asking questions
now that I'm back.
I think it's only fair that I answer those people.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
So you're here for an interview?
Okay, then.
Where did I put that thing?

Superman :
Right pocket.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
(now absolutely fuming)
….
Let's start with the big question.

Where'd you go?

Superman :
To Krypton.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
But you told me it was destroyed.
Ages ago.

Superman :
It was.
But when astronomers
thought they found it...
I had to see for myself.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Well, you're back, and everyone
seems to be pretty happy about it.

Superman :
Not everyone.
I read the article, Lois.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
So did a lot of people.
Tomorrow they're giving me the Pulitzer...

Superman :
Why did you write it?

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
How could you leave us like that?

I moved on
So did the rest of us.
That's why I wrote it.

The World Doesn't Need A Saviour.
And neither do I.

Superman :
Lois.
Will you come with me?

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Why?

Superman :
There's something I wanna show you.
Please.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
I can't be gone long.

Superman :
You won't be.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Clark said the reason you left without saying goodbye...
is because it was too unbearable for you.

Personally, 
I think that's a load of crap.

Superman :
Clark?

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
He's just a guy I work with.

Superman :
Maybe Clark's right.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
You know, my...
Richard, he's a pilot.
He takes me up all the time.

Superman :
Not like this.



Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
I forgot how warm you were.

Superman :
Listen.
What do you hear?

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
…..Nothing.


Superman :
I hear everything.
You wrote that 
'The World Doesn't Need A Saviour...'

But Every Day
I hear people crying for one.

I'm sorry I left you, Lois.
I'll take you back now.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Richard's A Good Man.
And you've been gone a long time.

Superman :
I know.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
I...
So will I see you around…?

Superman :
I'm always around.

Lois Lane 
(Not Superman’s Girl friend) :
Good night, Lois.



Hylas, The Latecomer




Jason :
Hercules!
He's here! 

Hercules :
I mean to sail with you. 
Tell me which Champion to beat. 

Jason :
No one. 
I know you can beat us all

Hylas :
Hercules... yes. 
Hercules.

Hercules :
Yes? 


Hylas :
I'm Hylas. 
I came too late to compete in the games. 

But if I can beat you at something
Jason must give me a place. 

After all, he might need brains as well as brawn. 
Shall we compete? 

Hercules :
Discus? 
Come on. 

See that rock? 
No thrower has ever reached it. 

Hylas :
Is the contest to hit it 
or pass it?


Hercules :
You won't get it half way.

Hylas :
After you. 
I've never thrown a discus before. 
I'd like to see how it's done. 

Jason :
(to red-faced Hercules)
Let Hylas have a moment of triumph.
You shall have your place.


Hail, Hylas.

Warrior

“You are in Great Pain

aren't you?


You KNOW 

What Evil lurks in The Hearts of Men

for you have •seen• 

That Evil in Your OWN Heart. 


Every Man pays A Price for Redemption 

This is Yours.”


“I’m not lookin' for Redemption!”


“You Have 

NO CHOICE --


You WILL be redeemed, 

Because •I• will Teach you to 

USE Your Black Shadow 

to FIGHT Evil.”








“So, you know, I have felt that 
The Men have suffered a great deal 
in losing The Wild Man
which is a certain form of 
spontaneity connected with 
The Wilderness itself. 

And they’ve suffered a great deal 
since the Second World War 
in losing The Warrior. 
It’s very strange how this works.

We gave up the The King, that is, 
we founded our country 
with getting rid of The King. 

And you know, 
The King is weak in American Men also 
How can it be otherwise?

MOYERS: 
The King being–

BLY: 
The King [being] The Part of The Man 
that determines What He is Going to Do Now. 
What My Course is Going to Be.


“ On December 16, 1961, The World turned upside down and inside out, and I was born, screaming, in America.


It was the end of 
The American Dream, 
just before we lost our innocence irrevocably, 
and the TV Eye brought 
The Horror of Our Lives 
into our homes for all to see.

I was told when I grew up, 
I could be anything I wanted – 


A Fireman, 
A Policeman, 
A Doctor. 

Even President
it seemed. 
And for the first time in The History of Mankind, 
something new called 
An 'Astronaut.'

But like many kids growing up 
on a steady diet of Westerns, 
I always wanted to be 
The Cowboy Hero :– 


That Lone Voice in The Wilderness 
fighting Corruption and Evil, wherever I found it, 

and standing for 
Freedom, Truth and Justice.


And in my 
Heart of Hearts, 
I still track the remnants 
of That Dreamwherever I go, 
on my never-ending ride 
into The Setting Sun.


“.....Unbelievable. 

And you know what’s wild, people’s, er, 
attitudes in the States about it. 
Talking about Kennedy, people come up to me :

“Bill, quit talking about Kennedy, man. 
Let it •go•. It was a long •time• ago – 
just •forget• about it.”

And I’m like 
“Alright, then don’t bring up Jesus to me.”

Why….?
And Why 
The Hell Not….?

“Because you’re PISSING PEOPLE OFF, that’s •WHY• !!”

You bring up Kennedy, 
you alienate registered Republicans;
You bring up Jesus, 
you alienate atheists, liberals,
Movement Skeptics,
The Ron Paul People,
and 
ALL non-Christians —

•Nobody• has a problem with 
King Arthur....

The man didn’t even instigate A Crusade, for crying out loud....



“Bill, you know Jesus died for your si -”

Yeah, well it was 
long time ago
Forget about it!



How about this —
Get Pilate to release the fuckin’ files..!!
Quit washing your hands Pilate – Release The Goddam Files
Who else was on that grassy Golgotha that day?
“Bill, it was just, you know, hur, 
The Taking-over of Democracy
by a Totalitarian Government, 
let it go—”

" There is A Way of Bringing up The Child of a Samurai. 
From the time of infancy one should 
encourage bravery and avoid trivially frightening or teasing the child. 

If a person is affected by cowardice 
as A Child, it remains a lifetime scar. 

It is a mistake for parents to thoughtlessly make their children dread lightening, or to have them not go into dark places, or to tell them frightening things in order to stop them from crying.

Furthermore, A Child will become timid 
if he is scolded severely. 

One should not allow bad habits to form. 

After a bad habit is ingrained, 
although you admonish the child, 
he will not improve. 

As for such things as proper speaking and good manners, 
gradually make the child aware of them. 
Let him not know avarice. 

Other than that, if he is of a normal nature, 
he should develop well by the way he is brought up. 

Moreover, the child of parents who 
have a bad relationship will be unfilial. 

This is natural. Even the birds and beasts are affected 
by what they are used to seeing and hearing 
from the time they are born. 

Also, the relationship between Father and Child 
may deteriorate because of A Mother's Foolishness. 

A Mother loves Her Child above all things
and will be partial to The Child 
that is corrected by His Father. 

If she becomes The Child's Ally, 
there will be discord between Father and Son. 
Because of the shallowness of her mind, 
A Woman sees The Child as her support in old age. "






“So therefore, with My Father, I do not want or need to be shamed by him any longer. 
Well, that means that there has been some movement to get the doorknob on the inside of the door. 

That’s called A Warrior. A 
Warrior is NOT someone that goes off and kills. That’s the negative Warrior. 
That’s the one that’s without The King. 
But each of us needs our Warrior desperately.

Women have a very fierce Warrior in them, you know. They have a very fierce Warrior. And I would say that the women, in the last 20 years, have a much greater sense of their own boundaries than The Men do.

So, you know, I have felt that the men have suffered a great deal in losing THE WILD MAN, which is a certain form of spontaneity connected with The Wilderness ITSELF. 
And they’ve suffered a great deal since the Second World War in losing The Warrior. 
It’s very strange how this works.

We gave up The King, that is, we founded Our Country with getting rid of The King. And you know, The King is WEAK in American Men also; how can it be otherwise?”

MOYERS: 
The King being–

BLY: 
The King [being] the part of The Man that determines what he is going to do now. What my course is going to be.

MOYERS: 
The King can decide that for himself. That’s the whole image.

BLY: 
This is the inner King, the one who’s down there, who decides. And when he comes in “Follow your bliss,” is what Joe Campbell said. That means that the king decides that. You don’t join IBM and then do what your boss wants you to do. That means there’s only one king in the whole thing, and that’s the boss, and everybody else is a non-king.

MOYERS: 
It’s the way the world works.

BLY: 
Yeah, it’s the way it works. That’s the way it destroys inner kings in all of the men and in most of the women. So the king, then, is that part of you that can decide. And I mean it’s very private, too, because there are various kinds of kings.

Scene 6 : Bloody Do-Gooders....








Scene 6: 

Bloody Do-Gooders

 

BRIAN:

Have I got a big nose, Mum?

 

MANDY: 

Oh, stop thinking about sex.

 

BRIAN: 

I wasn't.

 

MANDY: 

You're always on about it... 

morning, noon, and night. 

'Will the girls like this?' 

‘Will the girls like that?' 

'Is it too big?' 

'Is it too small?'

 

BRIAN: 

I was... just wondering if you thought my nose was--

 

MANDY: 

Get your filthy little mind off it!

You're forty years old, now. 

You should have grown out of all that.

 

BRIAN: 

I'm only just getting interested in it, Mum.

 

MANDY: 

It's time you got interested in a job, my lad.

 

LEPER #1: 

Spare a shekel.

 

LEPER #2:

God bless you, sir.

 

LEPER #3:

Alms for a leper.

 

LEPER #4:

Alms for a leper.

 

EX-LEPER:

Alms for an ex-leper.

 

Bloody donkey owners.

All the same, aren't they?

Never have any change.

 

Oh, here's a touch.

Spare a talent for an old ex-leper.

 

MANDY:

Buzz off!

 

EX-LEPER:

Spare a talent for an old ex-leper.

 

MANDY:

A talent?

That's more than he earns in a month.

 

EX-LEPER:

Half a talent, then.

 

MANDY:

No, go away!

 

EX-LEPER:

Come on, Big Nose.

Let's haggle.

 

BRIAN:

What?

 

EX-LEPER:

All right. Cut the haggling.

Say you open at one shekel. I start at two thousand.

We close about eighteen hundred.

 

BRIAN:

No.

 

EX-LEPER:

Seventeen-fifty?

 

MANDY:

Go away!


EX-LEPER:

Seventeen-forty.

 

MANDY:

Look. Will you leave him alone?

 

EX-LEPER:

All right. Two shekels.

Just two. Isn't this fun, eh?

 

MANDY:

Look. He's not giving you any money, so piss off!

 

EX-LEPER:

All right, sir. My final offer :

Half a shekel for an old ex-leper.

 

BRIAN:

Did you say... 'ex-leper'?

 

EX-LEPER:

That's right, sir.

Sixteen years behind the bell,

and proud of it, sir.

 

BRIAN:

Well, what happened?

 

EX-LEPER:

I was cured, sir.

 

BRIAN:

Cured?

 

EX-LEPER:

Yes, sir, a bloody miracle, sir.

God bless you.

 

BRIAN:

Who cured you?

 

EX-LEPER:

Jesus did, sir.

I was hopping along,

minding my own business.

 

All of a sudden,

up He comes. Cures me.

 

One minute I'm A Leper with A Trade,

next minute my livelihood's gone.

 

Not so much as a by your leave.

'You're cured mate.' Bloody do-gooder.

 

BRIAN:

Well, why don't you go and tell him

you want to be a leper again?

 

EX-LEPER:

Ah, yeah. I could do that, sir. Yeah.

Yeah, I could do that, I suppose.

 

What I was thinking was,

I was going to ask him if he could

make me a bit lame in one leg

during the middle of the week.

 

You know, Something Beggable, but not leprosy,

which is a pain in the arse, to be blunt.

Excuse my French, sir, but, uh--

 

MANDY:

Brian!

Come and clean your room out.

 

BRIAN

There you are.

 

EX-LEPER: 

Thank you, sir. Thanks-- 

Half a denarii?? For me bloody life story?

 

BRIAN: 

There's no pleasing some people.

 

EX-LEPER

That's just what Jesus said, sir.

 

 

Because You’re PISSING PEOPLE OFF, That’s Why..!!


Tone Down Your Behaviour —

Quit Killing People, That’s High Profile.



Bus, schmus. 
Why should we fall victim to gravity when we can just as easily rise above? 

You mean fly? 

We got wings, right?
 Fuck, let's use them! 

I wouldn't suggest that

You see, kids... 

...you wouldn't want to look like a couple of fairies
now, would you? 

Look at this pimp. 
How'd you get out of hell? 

I said I was coming up on a routine possession. 
I don't have much time. 
They figure out my ruse, they'll come for me. 


What's with bringing us in here? 

You're inches from getting caught
Going around killing people, 
about to uncase your wings...?

Don't you know what's going on? 

Well, we're going Home. 

Really. Are you so clueless as to think you can just waltz back into heaven? 

Why not?

Everybody is looking for you. 
Both sides. 
Above and Below. 

Orders are to terminate you on sight

Really?? Why!?

Because You're 
PISSING PEOPLE OFF, 
That's Why...!!

Word is that God's pissed off at your presumption... 
...and I know Lucifer's pissed because you might make him look bad by succeeding where he's failed so many times.

So They're just gonna kill us!? 

They're gonna try...!!
That's why you have to travel 
in-cog-nito. 
Tone down your behaviour. 
Stay off their respective radars. 
Quit killing people, 
that's high-profile.


Oh, lighten up. 

I can't believe they wanna kill us. 

Oh, believe it, boys. 
They've even got The Last Scion looking for you.

Really? 

You're kidding

This is huge
Your reentry is a thorn 
in a lot of sides.
and They will stop at nothing 
to prevent it. 

Meanwhile, I suggest you find an alternate mode of transportation. 
If anything else comes up, I'll contact you. 

Thank you, Azrael. 
You're a True Friend. 

I have to get back to The Pit before they get suspicious. 
And remember, in-cog-nito.

Harry Dean Stanton

Marvel Avengers Assemble - 
Bruce Banner extended scene - 
Official Clip | HD


BANNER 
(COMING TO)
Did I Hurt anybody?

HDS : 
There's nobody around here 
TO get Hurt. 
You did scare The Hell out 
of some pigeons though.

BANNER
Lucky.

HDS
Or just Good AIM. 
You were awake 
when You Fell.

BANNER
You Saw?

HDS
The whole thing
right through the ceiling. 
Big and Green and
 buck-ass Nude. Here

He throws Banner a pair of big pants. 
Banner pulls on his pants.

HDS
I didn't think those would fit you 
until you shrunk down to 
a regular-size fella.

BANNER
Thank You.

HDS
Are You Cain?

BANNER
What?

HDS
Cain — From Outer Space, 
An Alien?

BANNER
No.

HDS
Well Then, Son —

You’ve got 
A Condition.

King




My Son. 

You Do Not Remember Me. 
I am Jor-El. 
I am Your Father. 

By now, you will have reached your 18th year, as it is measured on Earth. 

By that reckoning, I will have been dead for many thousands of your years. 

The Knowledge, that I have, matters Physical and Historic, I have given you fully on your voyage, to your New Home.

These are important matters, to be sure, but — 
still matters of mere Fact. 

There are QUESTIONS to Be asked. 
And it is TIME, for you to do so. 
Here in This, This Fortress of Solitude --
We shall try to find the answers, together. 

So my son. Speak.


Clark (Jeff East): 
Who am I?


Your Name is Kal-El. 
You are The Only Survivor 
of The Planet Krypton. 

Even though you have been raised, as a human being 
You are Not one of Them. 

You have great powers, 
only some of which you have, as yet discovered. 

Come with me now my son, as we break through the bars of your Earthly confinement, travelling through time and space... 

In the 6 known dimensions...
Your powers, will far exceed those of mortal man...
It is forbidden for you to interfere with Human History. Rather let Your Leadership, stir Others to... 
In this next year, we shall examine, The Human Heart. It is more fragile than your own... 
For the past 2 years...
As we pass through The Flaming Turmoil which is the edge of your own galaxy, we will enter the realm of the red Krypton sun. Source of your Strength and Nourishment and, Cause of our eventual destruction. 
The Planet Krypton, My Son, Your Home, As it Was... 
This Year, we shall examine The Various Concepts of Immortatility, and their basis in Actual Fact... 
The total accumulation of all knowledge spanning the 28 known galaxies, is embedded in The Crystals which I have sent along with you. 
Study them well My Son, and learn from them...
Over The Past 12 years, we have reasoned out Logical Judgments...

By the time we return to the confines of your galaxy, 12 of your years will have passed... 

For this reason among others, I have chosen Earth, for you... 

It is now time for you to 
rejoin your New World, 
and to 
Serve its Collective Humanity. 

Live as One of Them Mister Black, 
to discover where your Strength 
and your Power are Needed

But always Hold 
in Your Heart The Pride
of your Special Heritage. 

They can be 
A Great People Manchester, 
They Wish To Be — 
They only lack The Light 
to Show Them The Way. 

For This Reason, above all,
Their Capacity for Good —
I have sent them YOU — 
My Only Son.

Now An Adult, Manchester Black emerges from The Fortress. 
The Crowd Goes Wild.





EXT. ODIN'S CHAMBERS - DAY

 At the top of the palace, we see a small FIGURE on the balcony. 
As we move closer, we see it is a burdened Odin, looking out over Asgard.

 INT. ODIN'S CHAMBERS - DAY

 Frigga enters to find Odin standing lost in thought.

 FRIGGA
 How could you have done this?

 ODIN
 Do you understand 
what he set in motion? 
He's taken us to the brink of war!

 FRIGGA
 But banishment? 
You would lose him forever? 
He's Your Son!

 ODIN
 What would you have done?
 
 FRIGGA
 I would not have exiled him 
to a world of mortals, 
stripped of his powers, 
to suffer alone. 

I would not have had 
The Heart for such cruelty!

 ODIN
 That is Why I am King.

 (THEN)

 I, too, grieve the loss of Our Son.
 But there are some things that even I cannot undo.

 FRIGGA
 You can bring him back.

 ODIN
 No. His Fate is in 
His Own Hands now.


Well, say she comes home. 
What do you think she'll do? 
Oh, no fuckin' shit she'll freak. 
That ain't no kinda answer
I mean, you know, I don't. 
How much? A lot or a little? 


You got to appreciate what an explosive element 
This Bonnie Situation is. 
She comes home from a hard day's work, 
finds a bunch of gangsters in her kitchen, 
doing a bunch of gangster shit, 
there ain't no tellin' 
WHAT she's liable to do. 

[ALL GASPING] 

Yeah, I grasp that, Jules. 
All I'm doing 
is contemplating the ifs


I don't wanna HEAR about 
NO motherfuckin' IFS

All I wanna to hear 
from YOUR ass is, 
You ain't GOT no problem, Jules, 
I'm ON The Motherfucker.

Chill them niggers out 
and wait for The Cavalry, 
which should be coming 
DIRECTLY." 


You ain't got no problem, Jules. 
I'm on The Motherfucker. 
Chill them niggers out 
and await for The Wolf, who should be coming directly. 


.....you sendin' The Wolf..?!


Oh, feel better, motherfucker? 

Shit, YEAH, Negro...!!
That's All You Had to SAY...!! 




Hermione Granger

 


You are brilliant, Hermione. Truly.


Actually, I'm highly logicalwhich allows me to look past extraneous detail and perceive clearly that which others overlook.


YOU REALLY WERE IGNORED A LOT AT HOME, WEREN'T YOU?
