Jeremy Renner movie quotes

View Quote Brandt: So what you're saying is there is no ledger, which means we have no proof that the Syndicate even exists. So we're back to square one, only now we're all wanted by the CIA. [sarcastically] I'm so proud of us.

View Quote Brandt: The package is on the plane.
Benji: Yeah, I know. We're currently formulating a Plan B. Although, technically, it's a Plan C.
Brandt: This isn't going very well.
Benji: I am aware of that, Brandt; you're not helping.

View Quote Brandt: [during car chase in Casablanca, alongside Luther] It's a high-speed chase! You just had to get the 4x4, didn't you?

View Quote Unlike all human written language, their writing is symbolic. It conveys meaning, it does not represent sound. Perhaps they view our form of writing as a wasted opportunity, passing every second communications channel. We have our friends in Pakistan to thank for their study on how the heptapods write. Because unlike speech, a hologram is free of time. Like their ship or their bodies. Their written language has no form or no direction. Linguists call this nonlinear orthography. Which raises the question: "Is this how they think?" Imagine you wanted to write a sentence using two hands, starting from either side. You'd have to know each word you wanted to use, as well as how much space they will occupy. A heptapod can write a complex sentence in two seconds effortlessly. It took us a month to make the simplest vocabulary.

View Quote Col. Weber: I don't want to take away from your success, but Dr. Banks, is it really the right approach? Try to teach them how to speak and read? That's gonna take long.
Dr. Louise Banks: You're wrong! Its faster.
Col. Weber: Everything you do here, I have to explain to a room full of men, whose first and last question is how can this be used against us. So you'll have to give me more than that!
Dr. Louise Banks: Kangaroo.
Col. Weber: What is that?
Dr. Louise Banks: In 1770, Captain James Cook's ship ran aground off the coast of Australia and led a party, where they found the aboriginal people. One of the sailors pointed to the animals that hop around and put their babies in their pouch, And he asked what they were. The Aborigines said "kangaroo".
Col. Weber: And your point is?
Dr. Louise Banks: It wasn't until later that they learned that "kangaroo" means "I don't understand". So...I need this so that we don't misinterpret things in there, otherwise it is going to take 10 times as long.
Col. Weber: I can sell that for now. But I need you to submit your vocabulary of words before the next session. Remember what happened to the Aborigines. A more advanced race, nearly wiped them out.
[Col. Weber leaves]
Ian Donnelly: It's a good story.
Dr. Louise Banks: Thanks. It's not true, but it proves my point.

View Quote [after getting out of a giant fan] That's it. Next time, I get to seduce the rich guy.

View Quote Benji Dunn: Why am I Pluto? It's not even a planet anymore!

Clint: [To Thor] You know I've seen this before, right? [Tries to lift Mjolnir and can't; laughs] I still don't know how you do it!
Tony: Smell the silent judgment?
Clint: Please, Stark, by all means.
Hill: Okay.
Rhodes: Uh oh.
Tony: I'm never one to shrink from an honest challenge. It's physics. Right, so, if I lift it, I then rule Asgard?
Thor: Yes, of course.
Tony: I will be reinstituting Prime Nocta. [Tries to lift Mjolnir and is unable to] I'll be right back

Rhodes: Are you even pulling?
Stark: Are you on my team?
Rhodes: Just represent! Pull!
