View Quote ... James and the Giant Peach ... Movie Quotes Database

Aunt Sponge: Hello... little... angel!
Aunt Spiker: So kind of you to look after our little lost lamb.
Cop: Who are you?
Aunt Spiker: We are the boy's legal guardians.
Aunt Sponge: We've missed him so much.
Aunt Spiker: So we'll be taking him home now.
Aunt Sponge: And the peach, of course. We're taking that as well.
Cop: Well, wait a minute. Back up. You mean to tell me that this thing is a peach?
Aunt Spiker: It's not a peach. It's our peach.
Aunt Sponge: Our peach.
Aunt Spiker: Show him, Spongy.
Aunt Sponge: Yes. [shows the cop a picture of her and Spiker with the giant peach]
Cop: Looks like it's their peach all right.
Aunt Spiker: Yes! Yes. And we're very proud of it.
Aunt Sponge: We're going to be in the record book.
James: It's not their peach. The old man gave the green things to me. That's what made it grow.
Aunt Sponge: [Shocked and angry with what James had just said] How dare you disagree with us!
Aunt Spiker: [Places her hand on Sponge's shoulder, holding Sponge back] Patience, sister. Remember his... condition.
Cop: His condition?
Aunt Sponge: He's a chronic liar.
Aunt Spiker: Sad, really. He needs his treatment.
Aunt Sponge: Well, that's why we're here; to bring him home. So, you come here with us. Hey, Lovey!
[Sponge and Spiker maliciously try to get to James but he climbs up to the truck to get away.]
James: I'm not the one who's lying. They are!
Aunt Spiker: As you can see, Officer, it is urgent that you release him to us immediately.
Old Man: LET THE BOY SPEAK!
[The crowd utters in agreement.]
Cop: Alright, alright, alright! Let's get to the bottom of this! This thing is a peach. Now, all right. I'll buy that. Now, does someone wanna tell me how it got here?
James: We attached it to a hundred seagulls.
Aunt Spiker: Seagulls? [laughs with the crowd]
James: That's what happened! Me and Miss Spider and the Centipede and the Old Green Grasshopper.
Aunt Sponge: [laughs with the crowd] I think he's gone mad.
Aunt Spiker: This is all something he dreamed up.
James: Well, maybe it started that way, as a dream, but didn't everything? Those buildings, these lights, this whole city! Somebody had to dream about it first, and maybe that's what I did. I dreamed about coming here, but then I did it!
Aunt Spiker: The poor boy needs his medicine. Yes. So, we'll just take him...
Aunt Sponge: And the peach.
Aunt Spiker: Back to our cozy little house on the hill. Come along. You're going home with us.
James: [firmly] No, I'm not.
[Aunt Spiker tilts her head back in a disturbing way and her smile melts into a scowl]
Aunt Spiker: [through clenched teeth] What did you say?
James: I said: [enunciating] NO... I'M... NOT!! I hate that house, and that cold room, and how I was always hungry.
Aunt Spiker: All right! That's enough!
James: And how you beat me!
Aunt Sponge: [the crowd gasps] He's lying!
Woman: They beat him up?!
Boy: They beat him?!
James: And told me I was nothing!
Aunt Sponge: Shut up!
Aunt Spiker: Shut up!
Aunt Sponge: Shut up!
James: NO! Not this time! I flew the peach across the ocean. I landed on top of the tallest building in the world. [turns to Spiker and Sponge] I MADE IT! I'M NOT THE ONE WHO'S NOTHING, YOU ARE! AND I'M NEVER GOING BACK WITH YOU! NOT ME AND NOT THE PEACH!!!!
Aunt Spiker: [enraged] HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO US THIS WAY!!
[Sponge and Spiker grab fire axes and take swings at James. The officer repeatedly blows his whistle to keep the crowd under control]
Mr. Grasshopper: James, up here!
Glowworm: Hello, we are here! [A green light shines down from above.]
Mr. Centipede: Hey, buddy!
Aunt Sponge: What are they?
Glowworm: Young James!
Mr. Centipede: Hey, Jimmy!
Aunt Spiker: Bugs!
Mr. Centipede: Need a little help down there?
Aunt Sponge: Giant bugs! [she and Spiker scream]
Mr. Centipede: Hey, you old biddies! [blows raspberry]
Aunt Sponge: Help! Help us! [but the crowd ignores them as they are too busy watching the sudden appearance of James' bug friends]
Mrs. Ladybug: Whoo-ee! Here we are, dear!
Earthworm: Hello, James!
James: I told you they were real!
Mr. Grasshopper: Hello, old boy!
Miss Spider: Requesting clearance to land!
