Karen Gillan movie quotes

View Quote DAMN IT, MANTIS! WHY DON'T YOU EVER THINK?!

View Quote Nebula: No! Listen to me! You need to talk to the other children, all of them here, and tell them to stay away from the freaking… What the hell are you doing, Mantis?
Mantis: [yelling loudly] EXPLAINING IT, DICKHEAD!

View Quote Peter Quill: So you really don't remember anything?
Gamora: Like what?
Peter Quill: About your time with us.
Gamora: No
Peter Quill: We were...
Gamora: We weren't anything.
Peter Quill: You and me...
Gamora: That person was some alternate future version of me. It wasn't me.
Peter Quill: We loved each other.
Gamora: I don't think so.
Peter Quill: I know you don't remember any of it. You were everything to me. And I miss you, so much. And maybe if you open yourself up to it, there’s a possibility.
Gamora: I don’t think so, Quinn.
Peter Quill: Quill.
Gamora: Quill. I don’t think so.
Peter Quill: But what I’m trying to say is…
Mantis: Peter, you know this is an open line, right?
Peter Quill: What?
Mantis: We’re listening to everything you’re saying.
Drax: And it is painful.
Peter Quill: And you’re just telling me now?!
Nebula: We were hoping it would stop on its own.
Peter Quill: But I switched it over to private!
Mantis: What color button did you push?
Peter Quill: Blue, for the blue suit!
Drax: Oh, no.
Nebula: Blue is the open line for everyone.
Mantis: Orange is for blue.
Peter Quill: What?!
Mantis: Black is for orange. Yellow is for green. Green is for red, and red is for yellow.
Drax: No. Yellow is for yellow. Green is for red. Red is for green.
Mantis: I don’t think so.
Drax: Try it then.
Mantis: [pushes yellow button to yellow suit] HELLLOOO!
Peter Quill: [groans]
Mantis: You were right.
Peter Quill: How the hell am I supposed to know all of that?!
Drax: Seems intuitive.
Nebula: Can we get back to saving our friend?

View Quote You were the one who wanted to win, AND I JUST WANTED A SISTER!!!

View Quote Gamora: [After saving Nebula, only to be a stranglehold] Are you kidding me?!
Nebula: [Fights Gamora and chokes her while holding out the Godslayer, but ultimately doesn't kill her] I win. I win. I bested you in combat.
Gamora: No. I saved your life.
Nebula: Well, you were stupid enough to let me live.
Gamora: You let me live.
Nebula: I don't need you always trying to beat me!
Gamora: I'm not the one who just flew across the universe, just because I wanted to win.
Nebula: Do not tell me what I want.
Gamora: I don't need to tell you what you want, it's obvious!
Nebula: You're the one who wanted to win, and I just wanted a sister! You were all I had. But you were the one who needed to win. Thanos pulled my eye from my head, and my brain from my skull, and my arm from my body. Because of you.

View Quote [Gamora grabs Mantis by the neck and slams her against a wall]
Drax: Hey!
Gamora: Who are you people?! What is this place?!
Drax: Gamora, let her go!
Gamora: The bodies in the caverns, who are they?!
Mantis: You are scared. [Gamora lets go of Mantis's neck]
Ego: I call it the Expansion. It is my purpose. And now it’s yours as well.
Quill: It’s beautiful.
Ego: Over thousands of years I implanted thousands of extensions of myself on thousands of worlds. I need to fulfill life’s one true purpose… to grow and spread…covering all that exists… until everything is… me.
Gamora: [reacting with Mantis' powers] What did she do to me?
Drax: She already told me everything.
Ego: I only had one problem. A single Celestial doesn’t have enough power for such an enterprise. But two Celestials… well, now, that just might do.
Mantis: The bodies… are his children.
Ego: Out of all my labors… the most beguiling was…attempting to graft my DNA with that of another species. I hoped the result of such a coupling would be enough…to power the Expansion. I had Yondu deliver some of them to me. It broke the Ravager code, but I compensated him generously… and to ease his conscience, I said I’d never hurt them. I mean, that was true. They never felt a thing. But one after the other, they failed me. Not one of them carried the Celestial genes. Until you, Peter. Out of all my spawn… only you carried the connection to the light.
Gamora: We need to find Peter now and get off this damn planet.
Mantis: Ego will have won him to his side by now. He has a way of -
Nebula: Then we just go.
Gamora: No. He’s our friend.
Nebula: All any of you do is yell at each other. You’re not friends.
Drax: You’re right. We’re family. We leave no one behind. [To Nebula] Except maybe you.
Nebula: Oh my god...
Ego: For the first time in my existence... I am truly NOT ALONE! [Turns to see Peter looking doubtful] What is it, son?
Quill: My friends...
Ego: Now, well, you see, that's the mortal in you, Peter.
Quill: Yes...
Ego: We are beyond such things.
Quill: Yes...
Ego: Now--
Quill: But my mother... you said you loved my mother.
Ego: And that I did. My River Lily, who knew all the words to every song that came over the radio. I returned to Earth to see her three times, and I knew if I returned a fourth, well... I'd never leave. The Expansion... the reason for my very existence would be over, so I did what I had to do. But... it broke my heart to put that tumor in her head.
Quill: [Outraged, shaking off Ego's influence] What?!
Ego: Now, now, all right, I know that sounds bad--
[Quill repeatedly shoots Ego's avatar with his Quad Blasters, leaving several holes]
Ego: [Reforming] Who... in the HELL do you think you are?!
Quill: YOU KILLED MY MOTHER!
Ego: I tried so hard to find the form... [Changes into David Hasselhoff] ...that best suited you, and this is the thanks I get?! [Changes back] You really need to grow up! [Pierces Quill with a tendril of energy] I wanted to do this together, but I suppose you'll have to learn by spending the next thousand years as a BATTERY!

View Quote Hal: I promised you, didn't I? And here we are.
Mercedes: You promised me gold. Where is it? In the dogs? [laughs]
Hal: Let's get this sled loaded. Time to state our claim. Let's go. And... mush!
[Buck and the team struggle to pull the sled]
Hal: MUSH!
Mercedes: Are they broken?
Hal: No, they're just lazy.

View Quote Hal: Charles, persuade him, please.
Mercedes: Not the pup. Charles, put that down or I'll... I won't go a step! Charles!
[Charles raises his club until Thornton comes by]
John Thornton: Remember me? Yeah, I know. [walks over to Hal] Your rudders are frozen. If you help your dogs, it might allow you to take the gee pole and break them out.
Hal: Gee pole?

View Quote Charles: Lazy mutts!
Mercedes: I'm not so sure about those dogs. Maybe we should have bought a different team.
Charles: Maybe we should feed them.
Mercedes: Maybe we should have stayed on the trail.
Hal: MUSH!
[Dolly suddenly slips and the sled goes downhill]
Mercedes: Ah! No! Make it stop!
[Hal manages to stop the sled and falls to the ground. Hal gets up and grunts in anger as he throws his hat to the ground]
Hal: [yells in frustration] GAAAHHH!
[Buck and the team struggle to pull the sled]
Hal: Maybe a little encouragement. [whips the team and the dogs yelp] MUSH! [whips again] MUSH!

View Quote [The team attacks Thanos at his home. As Steve and Natasha enter, Rocket turns the Infinity Gauntlet over to find the Infinity Stones missing]
Rocket: Oh, no...
Captain America: [to Thanos] Where are they?
Captain Marvel: [Tightens her vise grip on Thanos' throat] Answer the question.
Thanos: The universe required correction. After that, the stones served no purpose beyond temptation.
Bruce: You murdered TRILLIONS! [shoves Thanos to the ground]
Thanos: You should be grateful. [gets punched by Bruce]
Black Widow: Where are the stones?
Thanos: Gone. Reduced to atoms.
Bruce: You used them two days ago!
Thanos: I used the stones to destroy the stones. It nearly killed me, but the work is done. It always will be. I am... inevitable.
War Machine: We have to tear this place apart. He has to be lying!
Nebula: My father is many things. A liar is not one of them.
Thanos: Ahhh. Thank you, daughter. Perhaps I treated you too harshly– [Gets decapitated by Thor]
Rocket: What? What did you do?
Thor: I went for the head.

View Quote [Nebula is fitting a time travel suit onto Clint Barton]
Banner: Clint, now you're gonna feel a little discombobulated from the chronoshift, don't worry about that--
James Rhodes: Wait, wait, wait a second. Let me ask you something. If we can do this, you know…go back in time, why don't we just find baby Thanos, you know, and… [makes a gesture of strangling a baby with a rope, complete with "choking sound"]
Banner: [disgusted] First of all, that's horrible...
Rhodes: It's Thanos.
Banner: ...and secondly, time doesn't work that way. Changing the past doesn't change the future!
Scott: Look, we go back, we get the stones before Thanos gets them? Thanos doesn't have the stones. Problem solved!
Clint Barton: Bingo.
Nebula: That's not how it works.
Barton: Well, that's what I heard.
Banner: What, by who? Who told you that?
Rhodes: [counting with his fingers] Star Trek, Terminator, Timecop, Time After Time…
Scott: …Quantum Leap…
Rhodes: Wrinkle in Time, Somewhere in Time…
Scott: Hot Tub Time Machine…
Rhodes: Hot Tub Time Machine, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure - basically, any movie that deals with time travel.
Scott: Die Hard? No, that's not one.
Rhodes: This is known.
Banner: I don't know why everyone believes that, but that isn't true. Think about it. If you travel to the past, that past becomes your future. And your former present becomes the past, which can't now be changed by your new future!
Nebula: Exactly.
Scott: [confused] So Back to the Future is a bunch of bullshit?

View Quote Steve: Okay, so the "how" works. Now we gotta figure out the "when" and the "where." Almost all of us has had an encounter with at least one of the six Infinity Stones.
Stark: Well, I'd substitute the word "encounter" for "damn well near been killed by" one of the six Infinity Stones.
Scott: I haven't, I don't even know what the hell you're all talking about.
Banner: Regardless, we only have enough Pym Particles for one round trip each, and these Stones have been in a lot of different places throughout history.
Stark: Our history. So, not a lot of convenient spots to just drop in.
Clint: Which means we have to pick our targets.
Stark: Correct.
Steve: Let's start with the Aether. Thor, what do you know?
Natasha: [Thor is sitting on a chair with his sunglasses on] Is he asleep?
Rhodey: No. I'm pretty sure he's dead.
Thor: [wakes up] Where to start? Umm…the Aether, first, is not a stone, someone called it a stone before. It's more of a…an angry sludge thing, so…someone's gonna need to amend that. Here's an interesting story though, many years ago…my grandfather had to hide the stones from the Dark Elves, wooooh, scary beings. So Jane… [an image of Jane Foster pops up on the screen] Oh, there she is. That's Jane. She's– an old flame of mine. She– she stuck her hand inside a rock this one time– and then the Aether stuck itself inside her. And she became very, very sick. So I had to take her to Asgard, which is where I'm from. And we had to try and fix her. We were dating at the time, you see. I got to introduce her to my mother…who's dead… [seeming on the verge of tears] …and, oh, you know, Jane and I aren't even dating anymore, these things happen though you know, nothing last forever… [Tony starts to push Thor back to his chair] I'm not done yet, the only thing permanent in life is impermanence.
Stark: Awesome. Eggs? Breakfast?
Thor: No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Rocket: Quill said he stole the Power Stone from Morag.
Scott: Is that a person?
Rocket: Morag's a planet, Quill was a person.
Scott: A planet? Like in outer space?
Rocket: [Mockingly] Oh, look: it's like a little puppy, all happy and everything. [starts petting Scott] Do you want to go to space? You want to go to space, puppy? I'll take you to space!
Nebula: Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
Natasha: [in a business-like tone] What is Vormir?
Nebula: A dominion of death, at the very center of Celestial existence. It's where... Thanos murdered my sister.
Scott: Not it.
Natasha: [lying on a paper-filled table] That Time Stone guy…
Banner: [lying down on the floor] Doctor Strange.
Natasha: Yeah, what kind of doctor was he?
Stark: Neuro stuff meets rabbit from a hat. Nice place in the Village, though.
Banner: Yeah. Sullivan Street. [Corrects himself] Hmm– Bleecker.
Natasha: Wait, he lived in New York?
Stark: [Sarcastically] No, he lived in Toronto.
Natasha: Guys, if you pick the right year, there are three Stones in New York.
Banner: [Sits up in surprise] Shut the front door!

View Quote Thanos: [Walking closer to the Scarlet Witch] I understand, my child. Better than anyone.
Wanda Maximoff: [Snarls] You... could never.
Thanos: [Reaches down to presume to stroke her hair, as if in comfort] Today, I lost more than you can know. But now is no time to mourn. Now... is no time at all. [He reaches forward, clenching the gauntlet, emerald filigree surrounding his wrist, making a gesture very similar to that Doctor Strange made when activating the Eye of Agamotto. In response, a bead of yellow light starts gathering in on itself as time is reversed and growing in size, solidifying into an intact and conscious Vision]
Wanda Maximoff: No! [She lunges for Vision and is swatted away.]
[Thanos picks up Vision by the throat, lifting him to eye-level, and digs the fingers of his right hand into Vision's forehead, digging out the Mind Stone. He pulls it loose, and Vision goes limp and colorless; he tosses the lifeless android aside like trash. Bringing his gauntleted hand up, he slowly moves the Mind Stone over the last empty setting, and drops it in. The energy surge is much more than any previous – his torso is wreathed with iridescent static and he bellows from the sensations.]
[As Thanos studies the completed gauntlet, a massive bolt of lighting strikes him, digging him into the ground and grinding him back for meters. Thor has arrived, eyes glowing with power, stooping down from the sky like a bird of prey. The God of Thunder pauses his attack, reverses his position, raises Stormbreaker above his head and hurls it – Thanos fires the whole might of the gauntlet against it, but it only creates a rainbow-like bow-shock, not slowing the ax as it slams right into Thanos' chest. ]
Thor: I told you... You'd die for that!
[He takes hold of the back of Thanos's head and forces Stormbreaker deeper into his chest, staring angrily into his eyes while Thanos cries out in pain]
Thanos: You... should have gone for the head!
[He holds up his hand and snaps his fingers]
Thor: NO!
[Thanos is now briefly inside the Soulworld, where he sees a young Gamora on the home world of the Zen Whoberi]
Thanos: Daughter?
Gamora: Did you do it?
Thanos: Yes.
Gamora: [Beat] What did it cost?
Thanos: [Solemly] ...Everything.
[out of the Soulworld, Thanos is snapped back into reality, notices the damages inflicted on the scorched Gauntlet, and the stones are no longer glowing]
Thor: What did you do? WHAT DID YOU DO?!
[Thanos closes his fist, Using the Space Stone to teleport away, leaving Thor left on the Wakandan field]
Captain America: [Stumbles into the clearing, holding his left side] Where'd he go? Thor, where'd he go?
Bucky Barnes: Steve?
[Bucky suddenly collapses into a pile of ashes. Steve walks over and touches the ground where Bucky's ashes evaporated unbelievably. On the battlefield, Wakankan soldiers disintegrate to ashes, much to M'Baku's horror]
T'Challa: [While reaching for a fallen Okoye] Up, General! Up! This is no place to die. [He holds out his hand for Okoye. But T'Challa then turns into ashes and an anguish Okoye falls back on the ground]
Okoye: Kumkani?!
Groot: [Slowly corroding into ashes as well] I... am... Groot... (Translation: "Dad?")
Okoye: [Off-screen] KUMANI!
Rocket: No. No, no, no, no! Groot... No...
[Scarlet Witch is mourning over Vision. She then turns into ashes. An injured Falcon turns to ashes, hidden in the brush]
War Machine: [Searching for Falcon, missing him by only a few feet] Sam!
[Okoye is seen hyperventilating fearfully over T'Challa's disappearance]
War Machine: [Off-screen] Sam, where you at?!
[Back on Titan, the remaining members of the Guardians and Avengers help themselves up from their battle against Thanos they had lost]
Mantis: Something's happening. [She gets disintegrated into ashes]
Drax: Quill?
[Drax gets disintegrated next]
Tony Stark: Steady, Quill.
Peter Quill: [Staring around in horror] Aw, man.
[Quill turns into ashes also]
Dr. Strange: Tony. [Tony turns to Dr. Strange] There was no other way. [Finally gets erased]
Peter Parker: [Realizing that he's fading away] Mr. Stark? I don't feel so good...
Tony Stark: [Trying to be calm] You're alright.
Peter Parker: [Stumbling and terrified] I don't... I don't know what's happening. I don't– [Parker falls into Stark's arms, clutching him tight and crying] I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go! Sir, please. Please, I don't wanna go. I don't wanna go. I'm sorry.
[Parker disintegrates into ashes in Stark's arms.]
Nebula: [To Tony Stark, seeing Thanos' victory] He did it.
[Stark mourns silently at their failure it caused. Back on Wakanda, the remaining team members, Captain America, Thor, War Machine, Black Widow, Bruce Banner, and Rocket are left mourning near Vision's dead body.]
War Machine: What is this? What the hell is happening?
Captain America: [Pause] Oh, God.
[Meanwhile, in a different place, in a rustic house on a terraced slope with a scarecrow made of discarded armor, Thanos sits down and watches the sun rise.]

View Quote Tony Stark: [While pulling] Is he under? Don't let up.
Mantis: Be quick. He is very strong.
Tony Stark: Parker, help! Get over here. [Spider-Man drops his web-line, and hurries to help Tony with the gauntlet.] She can't hold him much longer. Let's go.
[Star-Lord flies over to join the others.]
Peter Parker: We gotta open his fingers to get it off.
Peter Quill: [Stands in front of Thanos, tauntingly] I thought you'd be harder to catch. For the record, this was my plan. Not so strong now, huh? Where is Gamora?
Thanos: My... Gamora...?
Peter Quill: No, bullshit! Where is she?
Mantis: [Shocked] He is in anguish.
Peter Quill: Good.
Mantis: [Crying] He... he... he mourns.
Drax: What does this monster have to mourn?!
Nebula: Gamora...
Peter Quill: [Pause] What?
Nebula: [Realizing with horror and sadness what has happened] He took her to Vormir. He came back with the Soul Stone, but she didn't.
Tony Stark: [Grasps the danger immediately and de-helmets] Okay, Quill, you gotta cool it right now, you understand?
[Quill slowly turns to Thanos]
Tony Stark: [Shouting his pleads desperately] Don't, don't, don't engage, we almost got this off!
Peter Quill: Tell me she's lying. [Enraged] ASSHOLE! Tell me you didn't do it!
Thanos: I... had... to...
Peter Quill: [While starting to tear up; quietly] No, you didn't! No, you didn't! [He continues to rage and then pistol-whipping Thanos twice in the face, causing Mantis to let go in pain.] NO, YOU DIDN'T!
Tony Stark and Drax: Quill!
[Iron Man leaps for Star-Lord's arm, re-helmeting and leaving Spider-Man to pull off the gauntlet.]
Tony Stark: [To the struggling Star-Lord] Hey, stop! Hey, stop! Stop! Hey, stop! Stop!
Peter Parker: It's coming! It's coming! It's coming! [Getting the fingers completely loose] I got it! I got it–!
[Thanos wakes completely, now well and truly furious. He head-butts Mantis, grabbing the cuff of the gauntlet just as it is sliding off his hand, causing Spider-Man to stumble back, and then throwing Mantis away off his shoulders.]
Peter Parker: [Seeing Mantis with far too much air under her] Oh, God. [He jumps and wraps his arms and legs around her, extending his spider legs to form a roll cage for a safe landing.]

View Quote Eitri: You were supposed to protect us. Asgard was supposed to protect us!
Thor: Asgard is destroyed.
[Eitri stops his attack on Thor. He now believes Thanos had destroyed Asgard and leaving him in a similar survivor role like Eitri himself.]
Thor: Eitri, the Glove. What did you do?
Eitri: [Sits down] Three hundred dwarves lived on this ring. If I thought I did what he asked, they'd be safe. I made what he wanted. A device capable of harnessing the power of the stones. And he killed everyone anyway, all except me. "Your life is yours," he said. "But your hands– your hands are mine alone." [Holds up his hands, encased in hardened molten metal]
Thor: Eitri, this isn't about your hands. Every weapon you've ever designed – every axe, hammer, sword – it's all inside your head. Now, I know it feels like all hope is lost. Trust me, I know. But together, you and I, we can kill Thanos.
[Cut to Nebula suspended in the interrogation room seen earlier, while a technician puts her back together. Nebula ejects her eyepiece and snaps the neck of the tech when he comes close enough to replace it. She walks to a console, straightening her left arm, dragging her still-dislocated right foot behind her, and inputs a code.]
Nebula: Mantis, listen very carefully. I need you to meet me on Titan.

View Quote Nebula: You are a disappointment, sister. Out of all our siblings, I hated you least.
Gamora: Nebula, please. If Ronan gets this stone, he'll kill us all.
Nebula: [Smiles cruelly] Not all of us. You will already be dead.

View Quote Drax: I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am that you've accepted me despite my blunders. It is pleasing to once again have friends. You, Quill, are my friend.
Quill: Thanks.
Drax: This dumb tree, he is my friend.
[Groot grunts]
Drax: And this green whore, she too is my--
Gamora: OH, YOU MUST STOP!
[Nebula ambushes the team, bent on killing Gamora]
Nebula: GAMORA! You've always been weak! You stupid, traitorous--
[Drax hits her point-blank with a shot from a bazooka]
Drax: Nobody talks to my friends like that.

View Quote Ronan: With all due respect, Thanos, your daughter made this mess, and yet you summon me.
The Other: I would lower my voice, Accuser.
Ronan: First, she lost a battle to some primitive.
The Other: Thanos put Gamora under your charge!
Ronan: Then she was apprehended by the Nova Corps.
The Other: You are the one here with nothing to show for it!
Ronan: Your sources say that she meant to betray us the whole time!
The Other: LOWER YOUR TONE!!! I MAY BE YOUR--
[Ronan swings his universal warhammer at the Other, killing him; he stares at Thanos, sitting on his floating throne, his back to the Accuser]
Ronan: I only ask that you take this matter seriously.
[Thanos' throne turns, revealing him]
Thanos: The only matter I do not take seriously, boy, is you. Your politics bore me. Your demeanor is that of a pouty child. And, apparently, you alienated my favorite daughter, Gamora. [Nebula scowls] I shall honor our agreement, Kree, if you bring me the Orb. But return to me again empty-handed, and I will bathe the star-ways in your blood.
Nebula: Thanks, Dad. Sounds fair.
