“Hmm. It is too round on the top. It needs to be pointy. Round is not...” – General Aladeen, The Dictator ... Movie Quotes Database

[In a flashback, Nadal has led a team in designing a nuclear missile for Wadiya]
General Aladeen: Hmm. It is too round on the top. It needs to be pointy. Round is not scary. Pointy is scary. This will put a smile on the faces of the enemy. They will think that it is a huge robot dildo flying toward them.
Nadal: No, Supreme Leader. The shape of the missile top has nothing to do with aerodynamics. It is about the payload delivery.
General Aladeen: No. It sticks in the ground, and then kaboom.
Nadal: Supreme Leader, I think perhaps some of your information about bombs is coming from cartoons.
General Aladeen:
[theatrical version] Nonsense. I have been watching research films.
[extended version] Nonsense. They were research films. And in them the victims of the bomb would get very sooty faces and then a see-through version of themselves started rising up towards Heaven while playing a harp.
Nadal: In this film, just one question, was there a duck who, when the explosion is happens, his bill goes around to the back of his head, and then in order to talk, he has to put it back this way?
General Aladeen: There was somebody who suffered a deformity like that.
Nadal: I am now 100% sure that you are watching cartoons.
[in the extended version]
General Aladeen: Have you spoken to the experts about this? Have you consulted Professor Bobeye?
Nadal: Who?
General Aladeen: Professor Bobeye. The one with the incredibly strong forearms that are miss-sized for his body.
Nadal: The man you are discussing is called Popeye.
General Aladeen: Bobeye.
Nadal: He is not a professor. Popeye is, as the song tells us, a sailor man.
[end of extended version]
General Aladeen: Indulge me. For one second, pretend that I'm an idiot.
Nadal: Okay, I'm there.
[in the extended version]
General Aladeen: And explain to me how this bomb will not land in Israel and then literally bounce right back and blow up Wadiya.
Nadal: Supreme Leader, let me explain.
General Aladeen: [instantly] You've lost me.
Nadal: [shrugs] This is the missile in Wadiya. You push the button. "Boop!" [he mimics the missile] Israel... [he mimics the explosion, then mimics people screaming] "No! Why! Aaah!" Nuclear winter.
General Aladeen: The reality is... [Aladeen does something similar, except he mimics the missile bouncing back] Oy vey! "Aah!" Us.
Nadal: Believe me, sir. If I could make the device a little more pointy, I would but I simply cannot.
[end of extended version]
General Aladeen: Okay. You know what? Let's agree to disagree, my friend.
Nadal: Nadal.
[signaling for him to be executed]
Nadal: [while being apprehended] What? Why?! No!
