Queen Latifah movie quotes

View Quote [seeing the tropical paradise] We've been living above an entire world, and we didn't even know it!

View Quote [to Manny] This is the world our baby's gonna grow up in, you can't change that.

View Quote Peaches: [she feels nervous to marry Julian] I don't know. I don't know! What am I gonna do?
Ellie: Sweetie, listen to me. This is normal. Okay? Everyone gets nervous.
Manny: [walks in on-screen] What's going on? What happened?
Peaches: It's just… I can't go! How can I go? I don't wanna leave you guys. [slight pause for five seconds]
Manny: Hey, fuzzball… remember the first time that we played hockey? You were so afraid to get on the ice because it was slippery. Remember how I held you up while you started to skate? And when I knew you were ready, I let you go.
Peaches: Aw, Dad.
Manny: I know you're ready, now you have to let go.
Ellie: I always knew it would take someone very special, to match your spirit, and you found him. Just like I did. It's your time, sweetie. See the world, chase your dreams.
Manny: And whenever you decide to come back, we'll be here, okay? [they all embrace each other before Ellie gives Peaches a corsage on her head]

View Quote Buck: No worries, because I've got a plan.
Manny: Really, to stop an asteroid?
Buck: [shows the tablets on the prophecy] Look, the last two asteroids have pummeled the earth in the same spot, and it's about to happen again. We've got to go there and see what's attracting the asteroid. Once we know why it's coming, we can figure out how to send it somewhere else.
Granny: That plan is so dumb, I wish it had a face so I could smack it.
Manny: Let me get this straight: instead of running away from a deadly asteroid, you want us to run directly towards it.
Buck: I know it sounds suboptimal. But the good news is, it'll kill us no matter where we went!
Diego: Well, that's reassuring.
Manny: Okay. Even if we get to the crash site, how are we supposed to change what is literally written in stone?
Buck: Ah, my cynical friend, the dinos were wiped off the face of the Earth, but some escaped. They changed their fate and we can change ours, too! Who's with me?! [the Herd all look at each other, then quickly huddle in]
Manny: So what do you think?
Ellie: Honestly, I'm worried the weasel's right.
Buck: [dressed up with a leaf hat, nicking a lady's voice] No, don't listen to the weasel. He's a raving loon! [everyone just stares at Buck severely, and he laughs] Sorry, I just love playing devil's advocate. [singsong] And looking fabulous!!
Diego: Well, Buck has saved our lives before, right?
Shira: But what if he can't this time?
Peaches: I don't know what to believe, but I'm afraid our lives will be over before they begin.
[They break up]
Manny: Okay...I guess we're in.
Crash and Eddie: [salute] Crash and Eddie reporting for duty!
Eddie: Haha! "Dooty". [he and Crash laugh]
Buck: Excellent!

Crash: Meema me moo-ma.
Eddie: Mama may mee-mee.
Manny: Will you two quit it?

Manny: The blazing mammoth takes it on the breakaway. There's never been a player so tough, so graceful.
Peaches: So desperate to score.
Manny: He fakes right. He fakes left.
Peaches: He fakes knowing how to play. What's wrong? Lose something?
Crash and Eddie: Hey, what's that stink I smell out there? It's Manny! Hey, hey. It's Manny! Whoo! You stink!
Manny: Okay, Fuzzball. Let's see what you got.
Peaches: You asked for it.
Peaches: Yes! She dominates! Again.
Manny: Oh, please. I went easy on you. It's called good parenting.
Peaches: Yeah, right. Face it. I rule the ice now.
Manny: Oh, you talk a big game, hotshot. All right, how about best of three?
Julian: Whoo-hoo! Yes! Touchdown! Wait, no, that's not right. Not touchdown. What is it? Uh, hole-in-one! Whoo!
Peaches: Julian!
Julian: Sorry.
Peaches: Honey, I scored! Did you see me?
Julian: Yeah! And you were amazing.
Peaches: Careful!
Julian: Oh, the ice is really icy. It's like super-sized, extra value icy. But I'm getting better, right?
Manny: Okay, we'll play... later.
Ellie: So, she whupped your butt again, huh?
Granny: And with a butt that size, that's a whole lot of whuppin'.
Manny: Nobody was whupped. There was no whupping. It's just a loving father sharing some strategy with his only daughter.
Granny: Didn't know sucking was a strategy.
Crash: Okay, it's our turn.
Eddie: Let's show them how it's done!
Crash: You're going down, eh?
Julian: Ta-ta-da-da! For you, my mom-in-law-to-be. Buttercups! Nature's sunshine.
Manny: Isn't sunshine nature's sunshine?
Ellie: Aw! Thank you, Julian. It's been so long since anyone's given me flowers. But you're marrying our daughter. You don't have to keep bringing us presents.
Julian: But it makes me happy. And for you, my guru, my rock, my main mammoth! To you, I give the greatest gift of all.
Manny: Wait. What are you doing?
Julian: Come on, Bro-Dad. Bring it in.
Julian: Oh! I can feel your heart beating.
Manny: Okay. That's enough of that.
Ellie: You better get used to it. They'll be living right next door.
Peaches: Come on, Julian. Wanna go?
Ellie: Actually, weren't you gonna help me with the thing?
Peaches: Oh! Right. The thing. Gotta do the thing.
Manny: I can do the thing.
Both: No!
Peaches: It's a girl thing.
Ellie: Hey! Why don't you go do a guy thing? You know, you don't spend nearly enough time with your friends.
Manny: I don't?
Ellie: I'll see you later. () On this special day.
Manny: Uh... Okay.
Julian: Have you told them about our decision yet?
Peaches: No. I'm waiting for the right time.
Manny: Come on, Romeo. Walk with me. I'm gonna watch some butterflies come out of their cocoons.
Julian: Whoa! Really?
Manny: No.
Peaches: Goodbye, sweetie.
Ellie: Aw! I remember when Manny and I used to be like that.
Granny: Not me! Love them and leave them, and take half of everything. That's my motto.

View Quote Hey! Your father is the toughest, most stubborn mammoth I've ever met. He'll come back for us. [hugs Peaches] That's a promise.
