He's the sort who can't know anyone intimately, least of all a woman.

He doesn't know what a woman is. He wants you as a possession, something to look at, like a painting or an ivory box. Something to own and to display.

He doesn't want you to be real, and to think and to live. He doesn't love you.

Here you go then:

There's a tiny door in my office, Maxine. It's a portal and it takes you inside John Malkovich. You see the world through John Malkovich's eyes... and then after about 15 minutes, you're spit out... into a ditch on the side of the New Jersey Turnpike.

Absolutely.

On the other hand I'm amazed that despite my role as oftentime thread killer, a throwaway thread started as I finished watching pretty much my favourite film has turned into the longest running thing I've ever started on STW!

Anyways,

I dredged up an old rave tune - DDT by Secret Squrrel - for this thread thinking it would be easy to identify the movie (assumption#1) where the Al Pacino (assumption#2) sample comes from, but search result reveal nothing.

  1. I'd like to share a revelation I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to another area, and you multiply, and you multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure.

Here's a ton.

You could choke a dozen donkeys on that! And you're haggling over one hundred pound? What d'you do when you're not buying stereos Nick? Finance revolutions?

100 pounds is still 100 pounds. 

Not when the price is 200 pounds it's not! And certainly not when you've got Liberia's deficit in your skyrocket. Tighter than a duck's butt you are. Now, c'mon. Lemme feel the fibre of your fabric.

It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead!

No, it's not a description of Disney's treatment of the Star Wars franchise.
