The Garfield Movie (2024) as Otto

View Quote [Cut to nighttime on a bridge, away from the city. Marge drives up to meet with a mystery figure holding a kennel.]
Garfield: [voiceover] It was a dark and foggy night. The air was damp and heavier than a broken pipe. On nights like this, you can’t swing a cat without hitting shady characters making shady deals all over town. [Marge flashes headlights at the figure, who flashes his flashlight back. Voiceover] Oh, but this night was going to be different. Justice was about to be served with a helping of retribution on the side.
Marge Malone: [She steps out of the truck.] Is that the package?
Garfield: [disguised voice] It is.
Marge Malone: Well, we have a deal. [She whistles and Ethel steps out of the truck.]
Garfield: [disguised voice] No one will come looking for her?
Marge Malone: Nope. I did what you said. I burned her paperwork, and then shredded it, and burned it some more. It’s like she never existed. Except for the image of her face on millions of dairy products.
[Ethel comes over to the figure, who gives Marge the kennel and some keys. The mystery figure is actually the three animals with Garfield using the same Critter Talk app to mask his voice.]
Garfield: [disguised voice] This...never happened.
Marge Malone: Agreed. [She leaves with the cage, revealing Jinx inside it. She growls at Marge.] Oh, save it, Cat Fancy! I know you planned the milk truck heist and then tried to throw those innocent cats off a train to cover it up. The boys told me everything.
[Jinx sees her former henchdogs now working for Marge. She hisses at them. Meanwhile, Ethel looks around until she finds Otto. She is reunited with him at last!]
Ethel: Otto! [hugs Otto] You are my day.
Otto: You are my night.
[Otto and Ethel stare lovingly at each other. Otto sprays cologne in his mouth and prepares to kiss her, but Ethel leaps onto him and they both have a romantic kiss.]
View Quote [A balloon transition shows Lactose Farms as part-amusement park and part-factory. A steel gate shuts in front of the camera.]
Garfield: Quaint. Just a simple little grab-and-go.
Vic: Okay, okay, so they’ve done a few upgrades since I was last here. Stop being so dramatic. All we have to do is climb the fence.
[A yellow bird perches on the fence and it electrocutes the bird, sending him flying and landing on the ground. Still alive but hurt. Garfield walks over to a tree and bangs his head against it two times. The shocked bird stumbles around, muttering. Garfield bangs his head once more. Then, he spots a purple bull, Otto, sitting on a rock looking forlorn. He recognizes Otto and gasps.]
Garfield: Wait. Is that Otto?
Vic: Who?
Garfield: Otto! Of Otto and Ethel?
Vic: Uh, no clue what you’re talking about.
Garfield: He’s one of the mascots of Lactose Farms. See? On the side of the barn? [He points to a painting of Otto and Ethel on the barn.] I’ll bet he knows how to get into that place.
Vic: Leave him alone. Seems to be in a period of meditation. Or depression.
Garfield: Yes, he does. Mmm. This calls for cat sensitivity and diplomacy.
Vic: Oh, yeah? And where are we supposed to get that?
Garfield: I have it in spades. Watch. Maybe you’ll learn something. [He approaches Otto.] Excuse me. You’re Otto, right? [Otto grunts in response. clear throat] I’m Garfield. A pleasure.
Otto: Go away.
Garfield: Just wanted to say I am a huge fan. I have eaten everything that has a picture of your face on it.
Otto: I’m not that guy anymore.
Garfield: I even loved that recalled provolone from a few years back.
Vic: Junior, no!
Garfield: Yeah. Anyways, here’s the thing. Me and my crew back there, we’re in a bit of a bind. Got ourselves in a situation. A long story short, we could use your help.
Otto: [grunts] You’re a fan, huh?
Garfield: Ha ha. Oh yes. Big time.
Otto: Then sing the jingle.
Garfield: Well, I don’t really sing on command. I’m not a circus animal.
Otto: Sing it.
Garfield: Really? [chuckles]
Otto: Sing it!
Garfield: [clears his throat and sings] ♪ Lactose Farms. Lactose Farms. We’ve got milk, butters, creams, and cheeses. ♪
Otto: More spirit!
Garfield: [sings with more spirit] ♪ As much as you want, as much as it pleases... ♪
Otto: Livelier!
Garfield: [sings in livelier and dances] ♪ Come and take a look and see what we got! ‘Cause what we got is a whole lotta lot! Ha, ha! Bop chee bop. Bibbidi bop bop chee bop! ♪ [scats while Vic facepalms] ♪ The tasty goodness is our motto brought to you by Ethel and Otto! ♪ [Suddenly, Otto punches him to a tree. In pain] What was that for?
Otto: I hate that jingle.
Garfield: [in pain] You could’ve just told me to stop. [He falls to the ground]
[Garfield then notices Otto staring forlornly at a female cow, Ethel, being escorted out. The two look at each other lovingly.]
Farmhand: Let’s go. Kids are waiting.
[Ethel is escorted away and Otto sighs sadly before walking away. Feeling bad, Odie walks over to Otto.]
Garfield: Odie, come back! Leave him alone! He might punch you!
[Odie comes to the bull and sits by his side. Otto warmly smiles, allowing the dog to stay by his side.]
Garfield: [refers to the cow in the farm] Was that Ethel?
Otto: [He grunts, but Odie whines to the steer. He smiles at the dog before telling his story.] A few years back, Old Man Lactose was forced out of business. The corporation that took over separated me from my Ethel. [Cut to a flashback of Otto being put in a wooden box while farmhands are lassoing Ethel; flashback] Ethel!
Ethel: [flashback] You are my day!
Otto: [flashback] You are my night! [Soon, the bull was sent out to pasture, separated from the love of his life; voiceover] I was put out to pasture. [Ethel is seen being harassed by children in the amusement park; voiceover] She was put on display as part of the tour. [Cut back to present day] I tried to get in there to break Ethel free, but they stopped me every time. Now I only see her six seconds twice a day.
Vic: We...we feel you, Otto. Come on, let’s go, Junior. We’ll find another way to break in there.
Otto: Wha-wha-what could you possibly want from that place?
Vic: Oh, I don’t know. A couple quarts of milk?
Garfield: A couple thousand quarts. [Vic nudges him]
Otto: Good luck.
Vic: We'll take any help when you have.
Otto: Pass.
Vic: I’m telling you, it’s a life-or-death situation.
Otto: And I hope you’ve notified your next of kin.
Vic: What if we can get Ethel out?!
Garfield: Or get you a commemorative pin?! [Otto quickly returns.] Where are we gonna find a commemorative pin?
View Quote [Later, Otto draws up a plan on the ground.]
Otto: Now pay attention. Here’s the perimeter of the plant and here are the two places you need to go. First, the truck with your milk is back here. And this delicate buttercup is my Ethel. My north star and reason for living is being kept by those barbarians in...a petting zoo. Located here. This cricket represents the electrical room. This snail, the refrigeration room. This toadstool is the loading dock, where you’ll find the keys to the trucks. [He sets a pinecone in the middle of the square.]
Garfield: Hey, what’s the pinecone?
Otto: The pinecone is the cheese and butter room.
Garfield: Ooh, [As he rubbing his tummy] cheese is my love language.
Otto: Now, for this briefing, I’ve done a quick reading of your personalities and have chosen tokens to represent each of you. [points to Vic] You are the majestic bullfrog. [A bullfrog appears, croaking.]
Vic: Oh, yeah. That feels right.
Otto: [points to Odie] You are the curious and clever chipmunk. [A chipmunk appears; points to Garfield] And you...
Garfield: Wait for it.
Otto: [He sets down a roadkill opossum.] ...are roadkill.
Garfield: Huh? What? Oh. [laughs] No, I get it. That’s a good one, Otto. Giving your new best friend roadkill. [pokes at the possum with a stick] Seriously though. What’s my real token?
Otto: That is your real token. Now, if you have any chance of...
Garfield: Excuse me. Can I switch to something living like a snail or a cricket?
Otto: You should’ve spoken up sooner. At this point, it would be too confusing to switch.
Garfield: Sooner? But you just told me this five seconds ago.
Vic: Come on, Roadkill. Focus.
Garfield: Oh, really? You give Vic the majestic bullfrog, you give Odie the curious and clever chipmunk, and then you give me, your new BFF, roadkill? I mean, it feels disrespectful, not gonna lie.
Otto: What makes you think he’s dead?
Garfield: My eyes. I have eyes and can see.
Otto: It’s a possum. They’re masters at playing dead.
Garfield: Well, then little Daniel Day Possum here should do Shakespeare in the Park.
Otto: Things aren’t always what they seem.
Garfield: You’re right. But in this case, they are.
Otto: What’s the big deal? Possums play dead.
Garfield: Oh, do they, Otto? Do they play dead? Do possums play possum? Is that what they do?
Otto: Yes. Possums are very clever.
Garfield: Well, I’m sure he was until the day he ate a pick-up truck.
Vic: Uh, just ignore him. Please continue. I’ll just put this back where you had it.
Otto: The straightest line to the loading dock is through the snail here. Then the cricket there. Cut through the toadstool and armed to the rock. Each of these rooms have their own set of unique challenges.
Garfield: Well, why can’t we go straight through the pinecone?
Otto: You don’t want to go through the pinecone.
Garfield: Looks like the straightest shot is through the pinecone.
Otto: You like walking with those feet, do you? You a fan of unimaginable pain and misery? Then go through the pinecone.
Vic: Stay away from the pinecone. [clicks tongue] Got it.
Otto: Once you’re inside the facility...[Cut to a 2D-animated rundown of the plan as the Mission: Impossible theme plays. Voiceover] You will enter the electrical room. There you will locate the air vent. Pop the grate and climb up. Then you'll crawl through a maze of vents and drop down to the refrigeration room. Next, you will need to hurl your body over a 30-foot drop to a series of hand rungs. You'll propel yourselves hand over hand and drop down directly into a loading dock. From there, you'll locate the keys to the milk truck. Drive that truck to the west pasture of the complex, cut the lock on the gate, and find the closest thing we have to an angel here on earth. You'll escort my sweet Ethel onto the truck and drive her to freedom. [Cut back to reality] It’s going to take mad skills to get that milk and free my dear sweet Ethel. [refers to Odie] Clearly, this one’s qualified for the mission. [refers to Garfield] But I have some serious doubts here about all of...this.
Vic: He’s pointing to you, Roadkill.
Otto: Let’s get to work.
[The others leave and Garfield pokes the opossum with the stick.]
Garfield: Stupid roadkill.
[Suddenly, the possum springs to life and grabs the stick.]
Roadkill: Hey! [whacks Garfield with the stick] I’m working here! [resumes playing dead]
Garfield: [groans] Definitely a Monday.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001) as Ryan

View Quote Jane: What's with her?
Ryan: What's with her and the captain?
Neil: What's with her and that stupid plant? [Jane and Ryan glare at him] What?
View Quote Ryan: Oh, please! Tell me we're not risking our necks for this plant!
Jane: I wouldn't even call it a plant. It's a weed.
Neil: I wouldn't even call it a weed.
View Quote Aki: All right. Why do you think we've never been able to determine a relationship between the human-sized Phantoms and the giant ones roaming the wastelands?
Neil: Excuse me Doc, but… what friggin' relationship? I mean, you got your human-sized Phantoms, a-a-and your creepy, caterpillary Phantoms, and your flying Phantoms, and let's not forget my personal favorite, the big fat giant Phantoms!
Jane: Down boy!
Ryan: He's right. If you spent as much time in the field as we have, you know there is no relationship. It's like a zoo out there.
Aki: Precisely! I think the giant ones are like our whales, or elephants.
Neil: But why would an invading army bring a bunch of whales and elephants along for the ride? Unless their ship was some kind of a crazy Noah's arc.
Dr. Sid:: Hmm. W-w-we have always assumed that the meteor was intended as a form of transportation. Perhaps it wasn't.
Aki: The meteor is a chunk of their planet that got thrown into space when they destroyed their world.
Neil: But how could they survive the trip across outer space on a chunk of rock?
Aki: They didn't.
Neil: Oh. This is all beginning to make a creepy kind of sense.

Casualties of War (1989) as Second Lieutenant Reilly

View Quote Lt. Reilly: So what was I doing in jail? What I was doing, let me advise you, was fixin' to shoot some motha****a's working in that hospital, that's what I was doing.
View Quote On the day I was born, my momma grunted. I popped out. Took one look around. "Shit!" I says. It's Two Creeks, Texas." So about eight years ago I'm still in Two Creeks. My wife's about to give birth to her first child. I took her to the hospital, natural thing to do. Well, she was refused admittance to this hospital on the basis of her race- which is, as you might guess, Negro. Next thing I know the baby ain't about to wait. And so my son is born on the goddamn floor of this hospital's reception room… Eriksson, I flipped the **** out. I started turnin' over chairs, kickin' lamps- wasn't long before I was in jail. Now, wasn't I on the side of righteousness? So what was I doing in jail? What I was doing, let me advise you, was fixin' to shoot some motha****as working in that hospital, that's what I was doing.
