The Last Starfighter quotes

Page 3 of 4
Rylan Bursar
[disgustedly]

Rrrr... E sanchay!

E sanchay! Onee mat swella! Preeta! Preeta!

Centauri, what's going on?

He's just saying how delighted he is that you are here, and if there's anything that he can do to make your stay more enjoyable, just give him a ring.

My stay! What are you talking about? Where are we?

Welcome to Rylos, my boy!

Rylos! Wait a minute... you mean, you mean... like the game?

Oh, he's quick! He's quick! He's very quick! He's speechless! So long, Alex! Have fun! May the luck of the Seven Pillars of Booloo be with you at all times. [muttering] Oh, someday these cheapskates will thank Centauri, trust me.

Rylan Bursar

Return the money, Centauri.

Return the money! Are you delirious? Do you know how long it to invent the games? To merchandise them? To get them in the stores by Christmas?

It must be terribly embarrassing for you and I do sympathize. However...

But I saw him fight! He could be the greatest Starfighter ever!

That was just a game, Centauri!

A game? Well, you may have thought it was a game, but it was also a test. Aha, a test! Sent out across the universe to find those with the gift to be Starfighters. And here you are, my boy! Here you are!

Right, here I am, about to be killed!

Killed! You don't seriously think it's dangerous, do you? Don't be silly! Trust me!

Xur
[admiring his scepter]

Just like your Ko-Dan Emperor's, isn't it, Commander Kril?

It takes more than a scepter to rule, Xur. Even on Rylos.

Xur

You're right, Kril. It does take more than a scepter.

Ko-Dan 1st Officer
[Xur springs the bayonet from the scepter in front of Kril's face, maniacal laughing to himself as he walks away] [aside, to Lord Kril]

How long must we endure this fool?

Ko-Dan Controller

We have a break in the Frontier

Fire the meteor gun!

Xur

My dear Ko-dan friends, lest we forget! It was your own emperor who granted me command of this armada. For only I hold the secret to the Frontier. Only I know the location of the Starfighter base. And therefore, only I will give the order to fire!

Forgive me, Xur.

Xur
[smirks]

You are forgiven, Commander Kril. Meteor gunner... fire!

Xur
[He does so, destroying the Starfighter base]

At last, it is done! Soon the Frontier will be down, and they will bow to their new emperor! Or I will darken the sky with their ashes.

Ko-Dan 1st Officer

Commander, Xurian spy reports that one starfighter has escaped.

Xur

Escaped?!
[angry, Xur springs the bayonet from his scepter]

Xur
[on image]

Yes, Father. Your mighty Frontier grows weaker by the moment.

Enduran

Do not call me Father! You are no longer my son! You are an outcast! Why have you returned?

Xur

I have returned for the good of all Rylans.

Enduran

With an armada of Ko-Dan warships behind you?

Xur

There are some Rylans who would welcome me, Father.

Enduran

Star League justice put down your Xurian cult! Your followers are few and scattered!

Xur
[angry]

Star League?! A refuge for weak worlds not worthy to be our equals!

Enduran

That is for the Rylans to decide! And not for a dangerous and evil child such as yourself!

Xur

And yet, it is this child who caught your master spy!

[Beta places his head on Alex's desk to make repairs] [startled]

Alex, what the hell's going on?!

Beta

Louis, you are having a terrible nightmare. Go back to sleep.

Louis

Alex, your head...

Beta

I said back to sleep Louis, or I am telling Mom about your Playboys!

[Kril is receiving the broken Zandozan transmission]

The last Starfighter...

Xur
[confidently]

Is dead! The last Starfighter is dead! Nothing can stop us now! Ahead full to Rylos!

[to an alien]

I'm sorry, it was an accident. I didn't mean to step on your, uh, whatever that is.

[voice in video game]

Greetings, Starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Kodan armada.

Alex, I want you to know that it was for the greatest good that I brought you back. Of course... it never hurts to be rich. [dies]

Death is a primitive concept; I prefer to think of them as battling evil, in another dimension!

I live below ground with my wife-oid and six thousand little grig-lets. At least, until Xur turns them into slaves.

I must congratulate you on your virtuoso performance, my boy. Centauri is impressed. I've seen 'em come, and I've seen 'em go, but you're the best, my boy. Dazzling! Light years ahead of the competition! Centauri's got a little proposition for you. Are ya interested?
