The Grim Grotto: Part One

A Series of Unfortunate Events 3×3

Lemony Snicket: After a great deal of time examining oceans, investigating rainstorms, and staring very hard at several drinking fountains, the scientists of the world developed a theory called "the water cycle." The water cycle consists of three key phenomena... evaporation, precipitation, and collection. All of them are equally dry, a word which here means "boring."

Lemony Snicket: Sometimes it is a relief to be bored because when one is bored... one is also safe.

Lemony Snicket: I advise you to find some safe, dry piece of entertainment, rather than watching another second of this danger-filled, extremely damp tale.

Lemony Snicket: The expression "shiver me timbers" comes from the society of pirates who enjoy using interesting expressions almost as much as jumping aboard other people's ships and stealing their valuables. It is an expression of extreme amazement they used in circumstances when one feels as if one's very bones, or timbers, are shivering.

Carmelita Spats: I'm not handsome! I'm adorable.

Hook-Handed Man: I'll make it up to you, boss. Who do you want me to kill?

Phil: I was sure I could find a better job than "unpaid mill worker." And look at me now. I am a cook on an understaffed submarine! Life keeps getting better and better!

Fiona Widdershins: What's for dinner, Cookie?
Phil: I don't like to say anything bad about anyone's cooking, even mine, so I won't.

Violet Baudelaire: "He who hesitates is lost" isn't a very useful philosophy. There are plenty of times where it's better to stop and think. Besides, it should be "he or she who hesitates."

Count Olaf: What is this?
Hook-Handed Man: What? Oh, it's a chef's salad. It's full of different things that are just chopped up and...
Count Olaf: Is there any beef in it?
Hook-Handed Man: It's vegetarian.
Count Olaf: Vege-what-who?
Hook-Handed Man: "Vegetarian" means there's no meat in it whatsoever—

Count Olaf: You are my henchperson, a word which here means you work for me. So the next time I ask you to toss a baby off a cliff, I expect to hear one thing... "Splat!"

Klaus Baudelaire: Well, our parents kept secrets from us too. I think they were trying to keep us safe.
Fiona Widdershins: Instead, we're facing dangers they never prepared us for.

Phil: You see? There is no problem that a family dinner can't solve.
Klaus Baudelaire: Political injustice.
Fiona Widdershins: Stomachache.
Violet Baudelaire: Complex math.
Phil: I'm talking about real problems, guys!

Lemony Snicket: The way sadness works is one of the strange riddles of the world. If you have been stricken with a great sadness, you may feel as if you have been set aflame as the sadness spreads over your life, like smoke from an enormous fire.

---

Count Olaf: I'll never laugh again. See? My lips can't even form the sound. All joy and mirth has been sucked from my life like those... What are those parasitic things that cling to you and suck your blood?
Hook-Handed Man: Lachrymose leeches?
Count Olaf: Families!

Carmelita Spats: Stop being depressing. It's depressing me.

Count Olaf: It's the Great Unknown.
Esmé Squalor: I thought that was a myth, like gravity or inner beauty.

Count Olaf: Consider this a mutiny. Full steam ahead!

Count Olaf: I'm splitting my sides! I'm nauseous with mirth! I'm seriously considering compiling a joke book from all the hilarious things bouncing around in my brain!

Count Olaf: Let's have one more round of villainous laughter, on the house. Ha-ha hostages!
Esmé Squalor: Hee-hee-hee antagonism!
Carmelita Spats: Cackle, cackle, cakesniffer!

Lemony Snicket: The phrase "uncharted waters" refers to locations that do not appear on a map, but it can also describe any place that is unknown. From the darkest depths of the sea... to one's own future, which cannot be known until it arrives.

Mr. Poe: S.O.S. That's what I ought to send! I'm literally drowning in paperwork.
Kit Snicket: Figuratively. You're figuratively drowning in paperwork.
Mr. Poe: Yes, I meant to say literally.

Mr. Poe: Is that my boss? Is it my wife? Is it the taxman? I meant to pay him, but I got so busy making money!

Lemony Snicket: One of the most powerful elements not found on standard periodic tables is the element of surprise... The element of surprise is found where you least expect it. But it is a dangerous element, which is why I recommend limiting one's scientific studies to the water cycle... The water cycle consists of three key phenomena: Evaporation, precipitation, and collection. All of them are equally boring... But so much less upsetting...

Count Olaf: Hee-hee-ho-ho.

The Wolf's Call (2019)

Human beings come in three kinds:
the living, the dead, and those who go to sea.
Aristotle

— Damn sonar!

Grandchamp: The wolf's call. That'll be my soundtrack when I check out.

Chanteraide: Change your password. Or your wife.

D'Orsi: 3,000 years of civilisation did not bring peace. Only deterrence...

Alfost: Couldn't you wear normal shoes on a day like this?

Alfost: If the computer's bust, why isn't it replaced?
D'Orsi: Because this is France. Only one works.

Alfost: Come on, Chanteraide. Death's only beauty is victory.

Wait A Minute, Then Who Was That On The Ladder?

Avenue 5 1×4

Ryan Clark: Oh, bugger. I'm still here.

Ryan Clark: Sorry, can't... Can't let you see that, because then I'd have to sleep with you to find out what you saw, and then kill you.
Spike Martin: We've all been there!

Herman Judd: Anyone giving negative comments should be blacklisted from all future voyages. How would they like that?
Iris Kimura: I imagine they might like that a lot.

Ryan Clark: You know, I just a little bit curious as to why you never told me that the whole crew are a bunch of fakes who have been shat out of Julliard.

Ryan Clark: Maybe I should learn about this stuff. Space and so on.
Billie McEvoy: Uh... I'll, um... I'll explain it to you...

Herman Judd: I don't wanna go the same way as Richard Branson! Fed to his own pigs on his private island...

Herman Judd: Oh. I don't like being unhappy, Iris. I just don't like it.
Iris Kimura: You get used to it.
Herman Judd: Do you verbally consent to a hug?

Iris Kimura: Okay, so you can meet 19 people a week.
Herman Judd: Nineteen. Odd number. Don't people come in couples?
Iris Kimura: No. Widows, widowers, priests, ugly people. You're not a couple.

Ryan Clark: This is just hopeless. I don't even believe they're actors.

---

Ryan Clark: So, popcorn and dirty jokes. Who's in? ... So, she said, "Wait a minute, well, then, who was that on the ladder?"

Ryan Clark: Seriously, though, on a scale of one to "we're all going to die," how fucked did you think we were when we found out that I'm just a beard in a Sergeant Pepper uniform?

— Fly safe!
Ryan Clark: Fly drunk!

Billie McEvoy: There is a shitstorm coming, and when I say "shit," I mean shit, and when I say "storm," I mean shit!

Billie McEvoy: Captain. We are currently leaking human shit and piss live right now.
Ryan Clark: Wha...
Billie McEvoy: Or excrement and urine, if you're in first class.

Matt Spencer: So, the ship seems to be shitting itself, but don't get hung up on results, Frank. The journey is the destination.

Herman Judd: Iris, I'm hearing things right now that would worry me if they were true. Please tell me they're not true.
Iris Kimura: They're all lies.
Herman Judd: Oh, thank God. Wait! You're just saying that because I told you to, aren't you?
Iris Kimura: Yes.
Herman Judd: Oh, fuck!

Matt Spencer: Okay, if anyone needs to freak out, this is a safe space. Emotionally. Physically, we're obviously in terrible danger.

Herman Judd: Look, I think you may have to do this...

Billie McEvoy: Ryan? Ryan, can you hear me? Are you ready to do this?
Ryan Clark: With every fiber of my being, NO!

Роберт Гэлбрейт — Зов кукушки

Корморан Страйк — 1

  “Улица жужжала, как рой мух. ...

&  Is demum miser est, cuius nobilitas miserias nobilitat. / Несчастлив тот, чья слава его несчастья прославляет.
Луций Акций. Телеф

&  Nam in omni adversitate fortunae infelicissimum est genus infortunii, fuisse felicem. / Ведь при всякой превратности фортуны самое тяжкое несчастье в том, что ты был счастлив.
Боэций. Утешение философией

&  Страйк был приучен вести следствие проверенными, скрупулезными методами. Перво-наперво дай свидетелю выговориться: в свободном потоке речи проскальзывают какие-то мелочи, явные нестыковки, которые впоследствии могут сослужить бесценную службу. А дальше, собрав первый урожай впечатлений и воспоминаний, направляй разговор сам, чтобы строго и точно упорядочить факты: кто, где, зачем.

&  Когда в кармане пусто, способ передвижения выбирать не приходится.

&  Non ignara mali miseris succurrere disco. / Горе я знаю – оно помогать меня учит несчастным.
Вергилий. Энеида. Книга первая

&  По опыту Страйк знал: «чайники» всегда ищут, у кого был мотив, а профессионал в первую очередь прикидывает, у кого была удобная возможность.

&  Страйку вспомнилось изречение Альфреда Адлера: «Ложь связана с отсутствием смелости сказать правду».

&  Forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit. / Может быть, будет нам впредь об этом сладостно вспомнить.
Вергилий. Энеида. Книга 1

&  – Я представилась как Аннабель.
     – Когда человека спонтанно просят назвать любое имя, он, как правило, выбирает что нибудь на букву «А», слышали такое?

&  Optimumque est, ut volgo dixere, aliena insania frui. / И лучший план, как раньше говорили, состоит в том, чтобы воспользоваться чужой глупостью.
Плиний Старший. Естественная история

&  В противоположность обычному порядку вещей, в джунглях славы мелкие твари загоняют и пожирают самого крупного зверя, тем самым воздавая ему должное.

&  Человек всегда стремится что нибудь подправить на месте преступления, даже если он вышел сухим из воды.

&  Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas. / Счастливы те, кто вещей познать сумел основы.
Вергилий. Георгики. Книга 2

&  Nihil est ab omni
      Parte beatum.
     Ведь не может счастье
     Быть совершенным.
Гораций. Оды. Книга 2

  ... Так прошло несколько минут, и Страйк все же извлек из памяти строки, что выучил давным-давно.
Мне отдых от скитаний, нет, не отдых –
Я жизнь мою хочу испить до дна.
Я наслаждался, я страдал – безмерно,
Всегда – и с теми, кем я был любим.
И сам с собой, один. На берегу ли
Или когда дождливые Гиады
Сквозь дымный ток ветров терзали море, –
Стал именем я славным...”

>> Шелкопряд (Корморан Страйк — 2) (будет (בהנ"ו))

The Good Liar (2019)

Betty McLeish: So, tell me, have you done this a lot?
Roy Courtnay: Met people on the computer service? Yes. I have.
Betty McLeish: Don't you find it's always the same?
Roy Courtnay: You mean the anticipation followed by the letdown?

Bryn: See, all this money you're gonna make, what's Putin's cut?

Betty McLeish: The past becomes more tangible when one experiences the environments in which they occurred.
Roy Courtnay: I never was one for history. I mean, what is the point in looking back? What's done is done, and you won't undo it.
Betty McLeish: You may begin to understand it, though.

Vincent: People don't like to talk about money. It's a taboo subject, but it's so important.
Betty McLeish: True. Like sex. Or going to the lavatory. Critically important, but not a subject for polite conversation.

Roy Courtnay: It's not a swollen knee that's keeping me here now. We've developed an intimacy, closeness.
Betty McLeish: We're close enough that I clean your toilet. And you do miss on occasion.
Roy Courtnay: I apologize. I shall attempt to make true my aim.

Roy Courtnay: It's this place. There's so much history. Everything is built on a heroic scale that makes you feel powerless and...

Betty McLeish: What are we drinking to?
Roy Courtnay: What we must always drink to, the future.

A Slump, a Cross and Roadside Gravel

Young Sheldon 3×14

Georgie: I'm serious. This thing is full of tips on how to make a fortune. Only cost me a dollar.
George: Is one of the tips "make a crappy newsletter and charge idiots a dollar for it"?
Georgie: .... No, but not a bad idea.

George: Y-You're just going through a little slump. Happens to everyone.

George: You just got to get out of your head. You... you're thinking too much.
Missy: I promise thinking too much has never been my problem.

Mary: I'm gonna pray for you tonight.
Missy: Everybody prays to God at night. Do it now while he's got some free time.

Georgie: Let's mine some platinum.
Sheldon: No, thank you. I don't care about money.
Georgie: But you care about science, right?
Sheldon: Of course.
Georgie: So I offer you the chance to do an experiment and you'd rather play a video game? What would Professor Proton think?

Missy: Ooh, what if I start wearing a cross so God knows I mean business?

Missy: I know you got your hands full with all that sad stuff, like disease and war and hunger and poverty, so thanks again for helping me get some hits at practice. Amen.
Mary: Don't forget to ask him to keep our family safe and healthy.
Missy: I just hung up. Don't make me call Him back.

Sheldon: Why do you care so much about money?
Georgie: You saw Back to the Future when their dad's rich at the end, his wife is all skinny and loves him way more.
Sheldon: So you want a wife who loves you because you have money?
Georgie: A skinny wife.

Georgie: If I was as smart as you, I'd play the stock market. Or go on Price Is Right.
Sheldon: I'd rather spend my time focusing on important things. Like figuring out how the universe works.
Georgie: So, say you figure out how the universe works. Then what?
Sheldon: I'm not sure, but in the meantime, I agree with Richard Feynman. I simply enjoy the pleasure of finding things out.
Georgie: I agree with the Beastie Boys. You got to fight for your right to party.
Sheldon: Well, it's good to have a personal philosophy...

George: Hmm. I don't like it.
Mary: What are you talking about? Our kids are behaving.
George: Exactly. Something bad's gonna happen...
Mary: Why can't you just be thankful?
George: Because that's when life kicks you right in the plums, Mary.

---

Missy: If you're unhappy, just ask God for help.
Sheldon: I don't believe in God.
Missy: Shhh! He can hear you. He knows if you've been bad or good. Like Santa, but He can send you to hell.

Mary: What do you think you're doing?!
Missy: Sharing God's love and making some cash.
Mary: Absolutely not!... God's love has nothing to do with money.
Missy: What about the collection plate at church?

Georgie: I know. I listen.
Sheldon: And you understand it?
Georgie: I work in sales. I don't need to know what I'm talking about to make it sound good.
Sheldon: Don't you think it would make you better at your job if you understood the products you were selling?
Georgie: No. People don't want to hear facts.
Sheldon: I do.
Georgie: Normal people don't want to hear facts.
Sheldon: I'm normal.
Georgie: Are you?
Sheldon: No, I'm special.

Missy: God, cover your ears... Damn it!

Mary: Lord, I really need you right now... I have tried so hard to lead my family to your light, but so far, Sheldon doesn't believe in you, Missy thinks you're a magic trick, and you're not a teenage girl, so Georgie doesn't think about you at all.

Missy: Mom took my cross away, and I have a game on Saturday.
George: Why would you do that? She's out of the slump!
Mary: She was being sacrilegious.
George: Mary, this is sports. When something's working, you do not mess with it.

Missy: I don't want another cross. I want my lucky cross.

Sheldon: Georgie. Are you still interested in getting rich quick?
Georgie: No, I want to do it slow like a chump.
Sheldon: Oh. Never mind.

Sheldon: It occurred to me that a good way to generate a positive cash flow would be to curate popular songs and make them available in a digital form. Possibly on a small device that could also be used as a phone or even a camera.
Georgie: Right. A phone, camera, music machine... Get out of here!

Missy: I think I want to do this on my own.
George: You sure?
Missy: Just in case Mom's right, I don't want to make God mad.

Sol: We haven't even gotten the results back yet.

The Broken Circle Breakdown (2012)

Elise Vandevelde: Why do you play the banjo?
Didier Bontinck: I'm too stupid to play the guitar and too dumb to play the mandolin... No, no. I used to be a punk rocker and a banjo sort of snarls, which reminds me of punk rock.

Didier Bontinck: Dirt-poor fortune-hunters from all over the world were there on the Appalachians, on that slate that was bloody difficult to mine. The Spaniard had a guitar, the Italian a mandolin, the Jew a violin and the African a banjar, from which the banjo is descended. To combat the hunger and the misery, they started singing songs about their dreams of a promised land, often about their fear of dying, their hope for a better life in the hereafter and their sorrow, their hard life.

Didier Bontinck: Maybe I don't want to make decisions about someone else's life.

Didier Bontinck: What could possibly be worth putting on your body and never be removed? Don't you regret any of your tattoos?
Elise Vandevelde: Of course I do. But it's not a problem. If you no longer like one, you put another one on top.

Didier Bontinck: Elvis is a pansy! The greatest musician in the whole world is Bill Monroe.
Elise Vandevelde: Who?
Didier Bontinck: Bill Monroe. Bill Monroe!
Elise Vandevelde: Never heard of him.
Didier Bontinck: The father of bluegrass music.
Elise Vandevelde: Bluegrass... Something to do with country music?
Didier Bontinck: It's country music at its most pure. A violin, an upright bass, a mandolin, a guitar and a banjo. Just strings, purely acoustic. And voices. It's absolutely sublime.

Didier Bontinck: Hey, Alabama... May I ask you something? Who am I? If you're Alabama, who am I?
Alabama: Monroe.

Alabama: If I want to believe that Maybelle is a star up in the sky, I will. If I want to believe she's a bird that perches on our window sill, or a butterfly that sits on my shoulder or a bloody frog that...

Alabama: I knew. In fact, I've always known. That it was too wonderful to be true. That it couldn't last. That life isn't like that, life isn't generous. You mustn't love someone, you mustn't become attached to someone, life begrudges you that. It takes everything away from you and laughs in your face. It betrays you.

Didier Bontinck: Goodbye, sweetheart. Will you... Will you say hello to Maybelle for me if you see her?

Whenever You're Ready

The Good Place 4×13

Final Chapter

Janet: Would you like a magic guitar that plays all the notes for you? It's the number one request among men over 50 who have gotten in here.

Chidi: So ultimately, this all goes back to a line from Professor May's book: "Mortality offers meaning to our lives, and morality helps navigate that meaning."
Professor May: Wait, what I think it says is that mortality offers meaning to the events of our lives. ....
Chidi: Yes, Professor May, you're probably right about what you wrote.

Vicky: Sorry, but these younger demon actors have no dedication to their craft. They think they can just start acting. They have to learn that acting is reacting, and reacting is pre-acting, but pre-acting, well, that's just being.
The Judge: Okay, take it down a notch, Daniel Day-Lewis.

Jason: I have an announcement to make... I'm leaving. Going through the door.

Chidi: How did you know?
Jason: It wasn't like I heard a bell ring or anything. I just suddenly had this calm feeling, like the air inside my lungs was the same as the air outside my body. It was peaceful. You know the feeling when you think a jalapeño popper is gonna be too hot, but you bite into it anyway and it's actually the perfect temperature?

Pillboi: Jason is the realest dude ever. I mean, none of us are real anymore. We're all just Caspers the Ghost and whatnot, which is funny 'cause me and Jason ain't even white. Why are all ghosts white? Aw, dip. Are ghosts racist?

Jason: I hope you have a nice rest of eternity.

Janet: I don't experience time the same way you do. I kind of live all times at once. ... To me, remembering moments with you is the same as living in them.

Tahani: Well, this may not come as a surprise to any of you, but... I'm ready to go.

Eleanor: "Working out the terms of moral justification is an unending task." Boom! I did it! It only took me 2,000 Bearimies, but I finally finished that book. Ha-ha, sucker!

Eleanor: What are you reading?
Chidi: "The Da Vinci Code."
Eleanor: Really?
Chidi: Yeah, after a thousand lifetimes of reading the most difficult writings in the world, I've acquired a new passion... Garbage books.

Chidi: Shakespeare went through the door.
Eleanor: Really?
Chidi: Yeah. Everyone's talking about it.
Eleanor: It's probably for the best. His last 4,000 plays were not nearly as good as the ones he wrote on Earth. I mean, did you see "The Tempest 2: Here We Blow Again?" Woof!

Eleanor: I'm kind of a philosophy gal. Where were the big brains hanging out?
Chidi: Socrates, Aristotle, Plato, Diogenes, they all gathered right here in the agora! It was like the Avengers, but for super thinkers.

Chidi: Eleanor, I know what you're doing.
Eleanor: Being the best eternal girlfriend ever? Guilty.

Chidi: So, Eleanor, here it is... I love you, completely and utterly.
Eleanor: Oh, crap.
Chidi: But I have to go.
Eleanor: But you don't though. You don't have to go. You don't have to leave me.
Chidi: I don't want to leave you. I'm just... ready to leave. I have the same feeling that the others described, a kind of quietude in my soul.

Chidi: Let's see what's on the menu... Literally anything you could possibly imagine.

Eleanor: This is sad, man. You got a John Locke quote or piece of Kantian wisdom you can throw at me?
Chidi: Those guys were more focused on rules and regulations. For spiritual stuff, you gotta turn to the East...
Eleanor: I'll take anything you got. Hit me.
Chidi: Picture a wave... in the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through, and it's there, and you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave. And then it crashes on the shore, and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a... a different way for the water to be for a little while... That's one conception of death for a Buddhist. The wave returns to the ocean, where it came from, and where it's supposed to be.

Judge: Relax, worrywart. Take a load off. Huh? Enjoy yourself. You know what I just discovered recently? Podcasts. There's, like, a billion of them and they just keep coming.

Janet: You can sit on that bench as long as you want. Whenever you're ready, you just walk through.

Eleanor: Michael, what are you doing?
Michael: I am returning my damn essence to the damn fabric of the damn universe.

Michael: That's what makes it special. I won't exactly know what's going to happen after I die. Nothing more human than that... Besides texting people that you're five minutes away when you haven't even left the house.

Janet: If you rent a car, don't pay for the insurance! It's a scam.

Janet: I wonder how Michael's doing...
Eleanor: I assume he's doing the same as every human... Some good days. Some bad days... He's got a few friends. A few people he can't stand... He's learning some things all by himself. And hopefully learning to ask for help when he needs it... He's messing up, and trying again, and messing up again, and then getting things wrong, and then trying to make them right. That's what everyone does.

Janet: What do you think happens when people walk through the door? It's the only thing in the universe I don't know.
Eleanor: I don't know either. The wave returns to the ocean. What the ocean does with the water after that is anyone's guess. But as a very wise not-robot once told me... true joy is in the mystery.

Janet: Do you mind if I stay here until you're gone?
Eleanor: Only if you say that thing I taught you...
Janet: I hate to see you walk through the final door at the edge of existence, but I love to watch you leave.
Eleanor: There we go.

Michael: Thank you so very, very much.
Ken: Yeah, no problem. Take it easy.
Michael: I'll do you one better. I'll say this to you, my friend, with all the love in my heart and all the wisdom of the universe... Take it sleazy.

1917 (2019)

General Erinmore: Down to Gehenna, or up to the Throne, He travels the fastest who travels alone.

Lance Corporal Schofield: Age before beauty.

Lance Corporal Blake: You swapped it? For what?
Lance Corporal Schofield: Bottle of wine.
Lance Corporal Blake: What did you do that for?
Lance Corporal Schofield: I was thirsty.
Lance Corporal Blake: ... What a waste. You should've taken it home with you, you should've given it to your family. Men have died for that. If I got a medal, I'd take it back home, why didn't you just take it home...
Lance Corporal Schofield: Look it's just a bit of bloody tin! It doesn't make you special, it doesn't make any difference to anyone.
Lance Corporal Blake: Yes, it does. And it's not just a bit of tin. It's got a ribbon on it.
Lance Corporal Schofield: ... I hated going home. I hated it. When I knew I couldn't stay. When I knew I had to leave, and they might never see me.

Captain Smith: Corporal. If you do manage to get to Colonel MacKenzie, make sure there are witnesses.
Lance Corporal Schofield: They are direct orders, sir.
Captain Smith: I know. But some men just want the fight.

Colonel MacKenzie: I hoped today might be a good day... Hope is a dangerous thing. That's it for now, then next week, Command will send a different message. Attack at dawn... There is only one way this war ends. Last man standing.

Σ nostradamvs: «Очень сильно, .... И да, визуально фильм неимоверно гениален. Особенно сильная сцена бега ефрейтора поперёк атаки; и ещё потрясающий момент, когда ефрейтор даёт молоко ребёнку в подвале. Прекрасные детали — рука внутри трупа и лицо, смотрящее из земляной стены, и падающий самолёт, врезающийся в амбар, и известные актёры (Скотт, Камбербетч, Ферт, Строг) в минутных ролях — всё это не даёт оторваться ни на секунду....»

Σ mi3ch: «Очень хороший фильм Сэма Мендоса. Об атаке на линию Гинденбурга. С окопными крысам, убитыми лошадьми и вырубленным вишневым садом. Потрясающие съемки. Фактически, мы первое поколение за всю историю человечества, которое на самом деле может прожить несколько жизней. Иногда даже кажется, что пройдя через тупик спецэффектов, кино снова становится искусством.»

A Hell of a Week: Part Three

This Is Us 4×13

Jack: Every good story has a hero who wants something. And... he or she... She has to go on an adventure to get it. So, I want you to close your eyes, okay? Close your eyes, and I want you to picture a hero. Someone you can really root for. Who do you see?

Kate: I'm in love with you, too.

Jack: But maybe... Maybe those flowers are poisonous.
Kate: No, Dad. I like them.
Jack: Well, even things we like can be bad for us sometimes, sweetheart.

Kate: That is so unfair! Randall's off with Beth doing God knows what every night, and-and Kevin's literally married.
Rebecca: It's different.
Kate: Why? 'Cause I'm a girl?
Rebecca: No!...

Rebecca: Kate, come on. You're fat, I'm ancient. We're gorgeous! Let's go swimming.

Kate: It's ironic. The only place I feel weightless is the place I've avoided my entire life.
Rebecca: You're here, Bug. Let the weight go. Take everything off your shoulders and give it to me; I can take it. That's what I'm here for.

Rebecca: My sensitive little Bug... Always, always empathizing with everyone and everything. But just because you're sensitive doesn't mean you're not strong.

Kate: And then the... And then the prince disappears.

Rebecca: I don't know how much longer I have before things might get worse, so... I'm-I'm done being sad, and I'm done feeling worried. I feel... I feel okay.

Kate: I am strong. You made me strong.

Rebecca: Go do what you got to do.

Rebecca: How'd it go? How'd they do?
Jack: Oh. Piece of cake.

The Referee's A W***er

Inside No. 9 5×1

Martin: He is boring, yes. And that's a very good quality in a referee. He's anonymously competent, and that... takes guts.

Phil: I could be running the line at a World Cup, Martin. Imagine being able to flag Neymar offside...

Martin: We are not the story, Phil. We are neutral officiators. Never forget that.

Martin: We've always been the bridesmaid, never the bride.

Martin: Right, can we synchronise watches, please?
Oggy: We don't have to do that. It's not Mission: Impossible.

Brendan: I'll put all that in the report, or...?
Martin: Just put Number 9, Cooke, dismissed for violent conduct.

Brendan: He's shaken but philosophical. I think he's aware his legacy is somewhat tarnished.
Phil: Somewhat? He's the Lance Armstrong of football referees! He's fucked himself.
Brendan: Not... anatomically. Or professionally, as long as we all stick together.

Oggy: Whatever happened to "What happens in the ref's room stays in the ref's room"?
Brendan: Nah, different game now. You know when the rot set in? When they started putting us in coloured jerseys. Back in the day you were the Man in Black. Big characters like George Courtney... Then the television money came in and they demanded more colour. Pinks, greens, burgundies. We look more like Showaddywaddy than football referees. Sports entertainment...

Mitch: You do anything for your club, don't you?
Martin: I suppose you do, yeah.

The Circle (2017)

Annie: What are you doing right now?
Mae: I'm at work. I come here each day and in return, I receive money to buy goods and services.

Bailey: Oh, did you think this was just a camera? No, welcome to real time analytic processing. When you see this, you're also getting this. Air quality, traffic volume, weather patterns, biometrics, facial recognition, saved and searchable, all to serve you better...

Bailey: Now, Circlers... do you like to share?
— Sharing is caring!

Bailey: We will see it all. Because knowing is good. But knowing everything is better.

Gina: You've had a blip or two when it comes to meshing with the community, like your absence at several weekend or evening events. Which are, of course, optional.
Mae: I'm sorry?
Gina: Let's start with this weekend. You left campus at 11:42 p.m. on Friday and got back 8:46 a.m., Monday.
Mae: Was there work on the weekend?
Gina: Oh, no, no!
Mae: I didn't... I'm sorry.
Gina: There wasn't mandatory work on the weekend! This isn't like a clock in, clock out type place, thank God! But, you know, there were thousands of people here participating in a hundred different activities.
Matt: So many.

Gina: Oh, forgot one more thing. This is your participation rank. Party rank for short. Some people here call it the popularity rank, but it's not really that. It's just an algorithm-generated number that takes into account all your activity in the inner circle. That makes sense?
Mae: I think so.
Gina: Okay. And again, it's just for fun.
Matt: It's just for fun!

---

Mae: Why the low profile?
Ty: I just wanted to move through this world like a normal person. I didn't wanna be watched every second.

Bailey: Mae, you're a valued part of the Circle, and you're family. And we care about everybody you care about.

Mae: Secrets are lies... Secrets are what make crimes possible. We behave worse when we're not accountable. I was my worst self because I didn't think anyone was watching. I thought... that I was alone.

Bailey: Does it feel right to have deprived them of seeing what you saw, Mae?
Mae: It doesn't. It feels very wrong. It was selfish. When you deprive others of experiences like the ones I had, you're essentially stealing from them... Knowledge is a basic human right. Access to all possible human experience is a basic human right.

Mae: We already have the infrastructure... The government needs us more than we need them. Imagine having the full will of the people. Instantly. You'd have... true democracy for the first time in human history. No voter suppression. You're voting from home... No more rigged elections. The UN can demand that they're held through the Circle. But only if everyone is heard. Every human on Earth. We can take the pulse of the nation, everyone in the world in seconds on any subject. It's the only way, right?

Mae: When everyone is united, everyone is known, heard, accountable, they can be better served... But what about the people who aren't part of the Circle, who don't want to be woven into the fabric of society or worse, want to tear out that fabric?... I want to introduce Soul Search...

The Rescue

Grace and Frankie 6×2

Sol: The first challenge in researching what to do for our honeymoon was narrowing it down into four categories: 'Getting away from it all,' 'Learning adventure,' 'Feeling good because we're doing good,' and 'Rumpus, general!'

Frankie: Are you seeing anyone?
Dana: Oh, no, no. Boyfriends have an annoying habit of becoming husbands, and I'm not going down that road again anytime soon.

Dana: Hey, Frankie. I need you to give me three good reasons why we should keep this Happy Meals prize from 1988.
Frankie: It's a collector's item. He swivels. And we almost named Coyote "Hamburglar" but ultimately decided that was a ridiculous name for a child.

Frankie: 'Five stars. Great service. But if you're looking for love, she's not your gal.'

Gretchen: Ground rules. Safety is mandatory. Otherwise, no limits. Location: anywhere but here and the Cheesecake Factory bathroom. That's ours. 2:01 next Sunday, it ends.
Jimmy: Have you done this before?

Lindsay: ...it's really bad. Like, Vietnam bad. Wait. Was Vietnam bad?

Gretchen: I did it! I got him! Can you imagine how exciting this would be if he were actually good?

Lindsay: Struggling actors are the best. They have so much to prove...

Gretchen: I have this gross feeling. Maybe I'm actually fulfilled by my job. Like, maybe it's not just someplace for me to go to nap under my desk anymore.

Jimmy: I'm abstaining, because I've already participated in Fuck Week. I just did it before the official kickoff.
Edgar: What do you mean?
Jimmy: Well, having received... underwhelming fellatio from a florist, I've contrived this brief fermata in our carnal fealty to allow Gretchen to get even. Without her ever knowing that there was a connubial imbalance in the first place.

Gretchen: You're so cool, Jimmy. I can't wait to marry you.

Gretchen: I'm happy being with just you. And I'm not even lying to myself, which, if I'm not lying to someone else is usually the case...

Gretchen: No. I'm impressed.
Jimmy: You are?!
Gretchen: Makes me feel better to know you're as big of a dishonest, disgusting fucking liar as I am.

Woman With the Hair But No Beard: We know how to solve problems, don't we? Fire can solve any problem in the world.

Lemony Snicket: "Where there's smoke, there's fire" is an expression that means if something seems wrong, it usually is.

Count Olaf: Do you know how it feels to try so hard to please people who fail to recognize your talent?

Count Olaf: What kind of baby doesn't know how to start a fire?!

Motherless Brooklyn (2019)

Lionel Essrog: The nun said my soul wasn't at peace with God and I should do penance. Frank said anyone teaching God's love while they hit you with a stick should be ignored on every subject.

Lionel Essrog: Frankly Frankady Franko! Frankly Frankady Franko! Frankly Frankady Franko! Frankly Frankady Franko! Frankly Frankady Franko!

Lionel Essrog: I think I blew it, Danny.
Danny Fantl: I had a sergeant once in the Bulge. Told me, "Sometimes you do everything you're supposed to, and it all still goes to shit."

Lionel Essrog: .... But he'd be the most hated guy in the city. I mean, he'd piss everybody off.
Paul: They love him. That's what makes me so... He flies above it. They revere him.
Lionel Essrog: Why?
Paul: Because he built the parks. As long as you're the guy that brings people parks, you walk with the angels, you can't lose.

Paul: The day that Rockaway Beach opened, Moses Randolph became a folk hero in this town. People don't realize how much he hates them. "The hero of the public who hates people." That's your headline.

Paul: No, he doesn't want money. He wants control. And he brokers money to get it and guard it. Some guys aren't satisfied unless they have filet mignon. Moses Randolph would be satisfied with a pastrami sandwich and power.

Lionel Essrog: If! It's not a good idea.

Trumpet Man: Don't be sorry. You got a head just like mine, always boilin' over. Turnin' things around. But that's music. Controls you more than you control it, once it gets in you. Some people call it a gift, but it's a brain affliction just the same.
Lionel Essrog: Yeah, well, I just twitch and shout. At least you got a horn to push it through, make it sound pretty.
Trumpet Man: Yeah, but there's a lot of other hours in the day, though. You know what I'm sayin'? Too many...

Lionel Essrog: You know, he never called me my name. He called me Brooklyn. Say, "Look at you, Motherless Brooklyn, you got no one lookin' out for ya."
Laura Rose: We all need someone lookin' out for us...

Lionel Essrog: So, you're above the law? That it?
Moses Randolph: No. I'm just ahead of it.
Lionel Essrog: What's the difference?
Moses Randolph: Well, the law's a rule book we make for the times we find ourselves in. You rebuild the city, in my experience, the law will follow you and adapt to what you do.

---

Lionel Essrog: A lot of people like the city the way it is. Who you rebuildin' it for?
Moses Randolph: The people to come. Fifty, 100 years from now, what will matter of what we've done now? What will help people to make science fiction real? The laws of today? Or roads and bridges and tunnels for commerce to move swiftly over? Beaches and parks to let people escape the rat race and inspire the mind? Palaces of culture where hellish slums used to be?
Lionel Essrog: It all sounds pretty grand, I guess, unless you happen to be one of the people whose house is in the way right now.
Moses Randolph: Central Park, the greatest urban park in the world. When they started work on that, there wasn't even a city above 57th Street. They kicked out farmers and tenant squatters, sheep-herders out of muddy fields and filth. They moved a few trees. And people protested about the loss of the countryside. And if one man hadn't seen ahead to what we'd need, this city would be unlivable, would it not? Yes, it would. Most people don't even know Fred Olmsted's name, yet they should thank him every day. I do.

Moses Randolph: The important thing in this life is to get things done. Those who can, build. Those who can't, criticize. And I will not obstruct the great work of this world, while some chipmunks are screeching about having to relocate their nuts.
Screech a nut, munk-chip! Chip a munk's love nuts, man! Uh... I can't control it, I'm sorry.

Paul: When someone isn't seen for what they truly are, that's a very dangerous thing.

Lionel Essrog: There's no upside in lyin' to a woman who's smarter than you...

Lionel Essrog: Frank told me once, if you're up against someone bigger than you, someone you can't beat toe to toe, make 'em think you respect their size and then cut a deal that lets you walk out in one piece. Then figure out a way to stick it to 'em later without leaving your prints on the knife.

Moses Randolph: Rape? Do you have the first inkling how power works?... Power is feeling, knowing, that you can do whatever you want, and not one fuckin' person can stop you. And if someone else has a dumb idea that you don't like, well, that's the end of that idea, or the end of that person, if you want.

Frank: "Brooklyn's big... Brooklyn's big, but there's things even bigger."

Lionel Essrog: If! If!

Harriet (2019)

Edward Brodess: Now, you listen here, girl. Your daddy may be free and your husband, too, but you and your mama and your brothers and sister... they belong to me... for life. And your babies will belong to me and their babies will belong to me. Do you understand me?

Gideon Brodess: [Daddy] warned me. "Boy, having a favorite slave is like having a favorite pig. You can feed it, you can play with it, give it a name... One day... you might have to eat it or sell it. You know it and the pig knows it. And if you have to sell it, there's no more guilt than separating piglets. And if you have to eat it, you'll forget its name."

Minty: I ain't going back. I want to be free.

Reverend Green: Now, I need you to remember what I tell you. Can you do that?
Minty: Yes, sir.
Reverend Green: Fear... is your enemy. Trust in God. The North Star will guide you. Follow that North Star...

Gideon Brodess: You been there all my life... like your mama was all my daddy's. Daddy vowed never to sell your mama. And I'm vowing... never to sell you. Now, you can come on back, and I won't hurt you bad.

Thomas Garrett: Here we are, friend. Pennsylvania border. Shall I drive thee across or would thee prefer to walk alone into freedom?
Minty: I walk with the Lord.

William Still: Well, I don't know if you know how extraordinary this is, but... by some miraculous means, you have made it 100 miles to freedom... all by yourself. Would you like to pick a new name to mark your freedom?

Harriet: That baby girl Araminta... you call her Minty. You call me Harriet from now on. That's my freedom name. I'm Harriet Tubman, leader of this group. We do what I say.

Rachel: Don't judge her, Minty. Don't you dare judge us. We do what we got to to stay sane. Can't everybody run.

Harriet: I ain't giving up. I'm-a do what I got to do, go wherever I got to go, however I got to do it, to free as many slaves as possible... till this beast, this monster called slavery, is slain dead.
— Amen.

Gideon Brodess: Minty!
Harriet: Name's Harriet.

Harriet: Ever since your daddy sold my sisters, I prayed for God to make me strong enough to fight. And that's what I prayed for ever since. I reasoned that there was one of two things I had a right to. Liberty or death. If I couldn't have one, I'd have the other.

Mary: Right. On it.

Sheldon: Fun fact: did you know that pizza is only one of many Mediterranean flatbreads?

Mary: So, how are you enjoying your first meal with our family?
Dale: Well, everybody's mean. I love it.

Connie: Don't you think that's gonna be a little awkward?
Dr. Sturgis: No more awkward than any other social situation I find myself in.

Dr. Sturgis: I'm making my, uh, homemade GORP: good old raisins and peanuts. I'll have to give you the recipe...

Dr. Sturgis: You don't have to worry about me. We physicists are no strangers to smack talk. I once told Dr. Linkletter he wouldn't know a randomized trial if it crawled up his sphincter.

Missy: Let's just do rock, paper, scissors.
Sheldon: No. Anecdotal evidence suggests that players familiar with each other will tie 75% of the time due to the limited number of outcomes.
Missy: Well, what if we added a few more choices? Like, rock, paper, scissors, candy, pony.

Sheldon: Ooh. What if we list all the spices in Mom's spice rack alphabetically? I'll go first. Adobo.

George: Damn, John. Three already? What are you using for bait?
Dr. Sturgis: I made it myself. It's, uh, cheese, garlic and a little bit of pig brains.

Sheldon: "And finally, both parties agree the loser will do the activity selected by the winner graciously, without complaint. For the purpose of this agreement, a complaint is defined as any disparaging comment, eye rolls or name calling, including but not limited to: 'dingus, ' 'fartbreath' and 'buttwipe.'"
Missy: Can we just sign it and play?

Dr. Sturgis: Fun fact: in Finland, they make a fire that's two long logs sitting on top of each other with a wedge of wood in between to let the air flow through.
Dale: Aw. That's your idea of fun, is it?

Connie: So enough about me. How about you? You got your wings yet, or is that just in the movies?

Adult Sheldon: Actually, I was the winner. We spent the whole day doing everything I love: drafting contracts, arguing about rules, and most importantly, never leaving the house.

Frankie: Separating my stuff from yours. This pile is stuff that you're definitely taking. This pile is stuff that is yours, but I feel like I'm entitled to it. And that pile is mine, but it's stuff I don't want anymore, so you can have it.

Grace: You're mad at me. I get it.

Grace: Well, then you're in denial.
Frankie: No, I am not. People grow up. They get married. It happens every day.

Grace: Look, it's not like it's gonna be, "Nick, Nick, Nick," all day every day. You know, it's gonna be a mix. Like, "Frankie, Frankie, Nick, Nick." Or, "Nick, Frankie, Frankie, Nick..."

Frankie: Wipe that "poor Frankie" look off your face, or I swear I will hurt you non-violently!

Frankie: Frankly, I'm concerned not a whit about you.
Sol: You know, when you're trying to hide that you're worried, you say things like "not a whit."
Frankie: Poppycock. I used it a fortnight ago.
Sol: Oh, begone!

I'm in Love

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend 4×17

Rebecca: I know I'm making the right decision.
Paula: You're gonna share your true love with the whole world. And it doesn't get any bigger than that.

Paula: And hey, enjoy this moment. It took a long time to get here...

Rebecca: An answer? Oh, thank God. You usually want me to figure things out on my own, which I think is such a waste of money.

Rebecca: Clearly, I'm not happy in any of these futures. Why?
Dr. Akopian: I don't know. Do you know?

Alternative Rebecca: You do love them. The problem is, you don't know who you are.

Bert: Well, maybe take a break. Like a sabbatical.
Darryl: Oh, that's a great idea. I've always wanted to go to Israel... Don't sabbaticals have to do with Israel? Well, I mean the word "sabbath" and "rabbi" are both in there.

Rebecca: So, just now, I was in the bathroom, and I was asleep on the toilet...
Paula: Multitasking. Smart.

Rebecca: 11 o'clock is a significant time. If we were in a musical, this is where I would perform my big 11 o'clock number... An 11 o'clock number is a big showstopping number with some sort of thematic revelation, and it usually happens around 11:00 p.m., because shows used to start at 8:30, but now they start earlier for some reason.
Paula: Uh, okay.

Rebecca: Oh, good, an abstract theatrical space. Now I can actually think.

Nathaniel: Ah. Huh. Uh, based on your words, tone, and body language, I'm guessing... we're not riding off into the sunset on the horses I rented, are we?
Rebecca: There are horses? Where are the horses?

Nathaniel: You don't have to explain. You only get one life. And you got to live that the way you want... I think everyone deserves that.

Rebecca: When I stare off into space... I'm imagining myself in a musical number. That's how I sometimes see big moments in my life, as musical numbers. And because I do that, so does the show. And by show, I mean the very popular BPD workbook acronym, "Simply Having Omniscient Wishes." So, yeah, I... I see myself in these songs.

Paula: These songs in your head, you have to write them down! That's how you do it!

Rebecca: This is a song I wrote...

Ким Стэнли Робинсон — Аврора (7/7)

<< Ранее

&  Люди живут идеями. Обрекают потомков на гибель и вымирание, не задумываясь об этом, а если бы и задумывались – проигнорировали бы и все сделали бы, что хотели. О потомках они пеклись не так, как об идеях, о своей страсти.
     Было ли это нарциссизмом? Солипсизмом? Идиотизмом (от греческого «идиос», что значит «собственный»)? Посчитал бы Тьюринг это признаком человеческого поведения?
     Да, пожалуй. Ведь они и Тьюринга довели до самоубийства.

&  Теперь мы думаем, что любовь – это своего рода внимание. Обычно это внимание уделяется какому-нибудь другому сознанию, но не всегда; порой оно может уделяться чему-то бессознательному и даже неодушевленному. Но внимание часто вызывается другим сознанием, которое его пробуждает и поощряет. Это внимание и есть то, что мы называем любовью. Привязанность, почтение, пылкая забота. И тогда у сознания, ощущающего любовь, появляется целая вселенная, словно бы созданная некой поляризацией. Вместе с этим возникает чувство, что отдавать – то же самое, что получать. Ощущение внимания – это само по себе поощрение. Просто отдавай.

&  – Он идиот. И он бесил, как и все идиоты. Но идиоты будут всегда, Фрея. Такие, как он, не переведутся, но они не имеют значения. Неужели ты этого не понимаешь? Они не имеют значения. Идиоты всегда будут с нами. Тебе нужно не обращать на них внимания и следовать своим путем.
     – Но они причиняют людям боль. Это не идиотизм, это что-то больное. Ты слышал, что он говорил? Семена одуванчиков? Девяносто девять процентов – на верную смерть, и это такой план? На верную жалкую смерть – детей, животных, корабли и все, все ради чьей-то дурацкой идеи, ради чьей-то мечты? Зачем? Зачем о таком мечтать? Зачем они это делают?
     – Люди живут идеями. Их не изменишь. Мы все живем идеями. Нужно просто оставить людям их идеи.
     – Но они убивают этими идеями других людей.
     – Знаю. Знаю. Так было всегда. Но, видишь ли, люди садятся на эти корабли добровольно. Туда стремятся целые очереди.
     – Дети добровольно не идут!
     – Нет. Но все равно останавливать их – не наше дело.
     – Разве? Ты уверен?
     Теперь он смотрит на нее неуверенно. Он горько соглашается: возможно, они действительно обязаны свидетельствовать против. Ведь они – выжившие после одной из этих безумных идей.
     Она качает головой, ловит его взгляд, как часто делала раньше.
     – Были ли идиотами те, кто верил в евгенику? Мне кажется, мы должны попытаться их остановить!

&  – Я не хочу, чтобы ты тоже умерла, пытаясь сотворить невозможное. Потому что, видишь ли... ты не сможешь запретить людям воплощать свои замыслы, следовать своим мечтам. Даже если эти мечты безумны – все равно не получится. Если люди так хотят, они это сделают. А потом уже их детям придется страдать. Мы можем обратить на это их внимание, и мы его обратим. Но останавливать их мы должны все вместе. Нужно представить их идею как неудачную, такую, за которую никто не ухватится, потому что перестанет верить в успех. Это может занять некоторое время...

  ... Она наклоняет голову ниже и целует песок.”

Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)

Terminator Genisys (2015) <<

Sarah Connor: There once was a future in which humankind was hunted by a machine that could think and Terminators built to kill. A future without hope. That future never happened because I stopped it... to protect my son and to save us all.

Grace: Don't thank me yet.

Grace: Grace. My name is Grace.

Sarah Connor: I'll be back.

Grace: You put a hundred cops between you and a Terminator... you'll get a hundred dead cops.

Sarah Connor: I keep my cell phone in the chip bag. The foil blocks the GPS signal so they can't track me.
Dani Ramos: Who's trying to track you?
Sarah Connor: I'm wanted in a couple of states. 50, actually.
Dani Ramos: But why 10 bags?
Sarah Connor: Because I really like potato chips.

Sarah Connor: Funerals don't help them. And goodbyes don't help you. You just have to learn to live with it.

Sarah Connor: : Talk. Talk fast.

Sarah Connor: What are you? Never seen one like you before. Almost human.
I am human. Just enhanced. You know, increased speed and strength, thorium micro-reactor...

Sarah Connor: Clearly you don't know everything about this time. How anyone with a phone is a walking sensor platform. How every intersection, every gas station and 7-Eleven has cameras. Nobody walks through this world without leaving a digital trail a mile wide.

Sarah Connor: You wanna cross the U.S. border with an undocumented Mexican national and a woman who had her own episode on America's Most Wanted?

Grace: Why do you care what happens to her?
Sarah Connor: Because I was her. And it sucks.

Dani Ramos: I'm nothing. I'm nobody.
Sarah Connor: Yeah, you're not the threat. It's your womb.

Carl: I'm not what you think I am.

Carl: Do you believe in fate, Sarah? Or do you believe that we all can change the future every second by every choice that we make?

Sarah Connor: So, you're Carl...

Carl: Our relationship is not physical. She appreciated that I could change diapers. Efficiently and without any complaints. I am reliable, I'm a very good listener and I'm extremely funny.

Dani Ramos: You just keep these around?
Carl: Even without a rogue AI taking over, I calculate a 74% chance that human civilization will collapse into barbarism. And in that eventuality, these weapons will be vital to protect my family. Also... this is Texas.

Sarah Connor: You've been tracking me?!
Carl: If you want to keep your phone in a bag of potato chips, then keep your phone in a bag of potato chips.

Carl: I won't be back.

Grace: You look terrible.
Carl: At least I still have all my face.

Σ pita4og: «Это действительно не сиквел и не перезапуск, а ремейк, эксплуатирующий прекрасные первые части. Тим Миллер все еще снимает крутой экшен, а также способен подвинуть Майка Бэйа с пьедестала "расхерачим в кадре автомобильную эстакаду к ***ням". ... Минус фильму - беззубый сценарий без единого шокирующего твиста, ...»

Σ colonelcassad: «..... В целом, настоящий "Терминатор" закончился на 2-й части и это вполне себе законченная дилогия, которую и сейчас можно спокойно пересматривать, а второй фильм так и вовсе даже сейчас легко даст фору большинству современной кино-фантастики. Все что было после "Судного дня" - это стабильный путь по наклонной и отнюдь не в светлое будущее. Пора бы уже "Терминатору" упокоиться с миром.»
