Fast & Furious (2009)

New model. Spare part local.
Ripped Off Words of Wisdom

The thing I learned from Dom is that nothing really matters unless you have a code.
- What is your code, Brian?
I'm working on it.

Seven Pounds (2008)

The Philosophy Behind It
Anything with Will Smith in it, go watch.

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
You went to MIT? Like, the MIT?
-Oh, and now you're wondering how I wound up as a lowly tax collector.
Absolutely.
-I sort of stumbled into this job.
That's a big stumble.

Babylon A.D (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
Life's simple. Kill or be killed, don't get involved..... and always finish the job.
The survivor's code.
And it all sounds great until the day you find yourself confronted by a choice. A choice to make a difference, to help someone...... or to walk away and save yourself.
I learned something that day. You can't always walk away. Too bad it was the day I died.

It's good. Where did you learn to cook?
-Rule number one in the mercenary handbook.
You never had a woman take care of you?
-No, not in my line of work.

Slumdog Millionaire (2008)

The Philosophy
Pay attention and you can remember everything.

Changeling (2008)

The Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
Why would they do this?
To avoid admitting they made a mistake when they brought back the wrong boy.

Of course, anyone reading the newspaper with half a brain would see through it instantly.
Sadly, that would exclude about half the readership of the Times.

Heroes S03E11

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
What is his problem?
-He doesn't want to grow up.
Everyone has to grow up! Dude!
-He says, "You guys didn't grow up." You read comic books and eat junk food.

Vicky Christina Barcelona (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
-Well, you are both so lovely and beautiful.
Well, thank you, but we do not fly off to make love with whoever invites us to charming little Spanish towns.
-Does she always analyze every inspiration?

I think that you're still hurting from the failure of your marriage to Maria Elena, and you're trying to lose yourself in empty sex.
-Empty sex? Do you have such a low opinion of yourself?

What offended you about the offer? Surely not that i find you both beautiful and desirable.
-Offended me? No.

Transsiberian (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
So, how was Customs?
-Yeah, well, they were suspicious of our passports.
This is why, Roy. Look. They're new. Brand-new.
A new passport is easy to forge.
There are fewer stamps and visas to copy.
Let me show you mine.
This is the real McCoy.
Well used.
They're not accustomed to see new passports.

Let me tell you the secret to getting through Customs and across borders.
Don't stand out.

Best not to tangle with the police in China and Russia.
Especially in Russia.
I know a man who was detained in Bratsk for 28 days, because his name had been misspelled on the visa. They demanded 5,000 U.S.

The House Bunny (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
Okay, ladies, dressing sexy is all about 'skimplifying'. I want you to show skin in the four major regions. Arms, legs, belly and cleavage.

Okay, ladies, today's lesson is makeup. First, we must highlight your eyes. The eyes are the nipples of the face.

Wanted (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
In fact, the only thing I do care about is the fact that I can't care about anything. Seriously. It worries me.

Sometimes I wonder if he ever looked into my baby blues eyes and asked himself, "Did I just father the most insignificant asshole of the 21st century?"

Never send sheep to kill a wolf.
-They were just the decoys.

Insanity is being shit on, beat down, coasting through life in a miserable existence when you have a caged lion locked inside and a key to release it.

Why are you here?
-I don't know who I am.
Do you really want to know who you are?

Finally, I have a chance to step into my father's shoes. Grow a pair. Live the life I was born to live. I have to train harder. I have to be as good as my father.

I have to become his student, memorise every move he ever made, he was always one chess move ahead. One move more prepared.One step quicker. One shot more precise.

The wolves rule. Not the sheep.

Enter The Dragon (1973)

I never knew someone who can move as swift as Bruce Lee.

The Philosophy

Living up to the legend

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
I see your talents have gone beyond the mere physical level. Your skills are now at the point of spiritual insight.

What is the highest technique you hope to achieve?
-To have no technique.
Very good.

A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready.
Not thinking, yet not dreaming.
Ready for whatever may come.
When the opponent expands, I contract. When he contracts, I expand.
When there is an opportunity......l do not hit.
It hits all by itself.

What was that? An exhibition?
We need emotional content.

How did it feel to you?
-Let me think.
Don't think! Feel!

Burn After Reading (2008)

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
What do we learn, Palmer?
-I don't know, sir.
I don't fucking know, either.
I guess we learn not to do it again.
-Yes, sir.

The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)

The Philosophy
Failure after failure are just going to make you stronger.

Ripped Off Words of Wisdom
It was right then that I started thinking about Thomas Jefferson......the Declaration of Independence......and the part about our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And I remember thinking: How did he know to put the "pursuit" part in there? That maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue. And maybe we can actually never have it......no matter what. How did he know that?

Thomas Jefferson mentions happiness a couple times......in the Declaration of Independence. May seem like a strange word to be in that document..... He called the English "the disturbers of our harmony." And I remember standing there that day...... thinking about the disturbers of mine.

I'm the type of person....if you ask me a question, and I don't know the answer.... I'm gonna tell you that I don't know. But I bet you what.I know how to find the answer, and I will find the answer. Is that fair enough?
