"Humans of Earth! I have come in peace. You need not fear me. I mean you no harm. However, it may be important to know that most of you will not survive the next 24 hours. And those of you who do survive will be enslaved and experimented on. You should in no way take any of this personally — it's just business! So, just to recap: I come in peace, I mean you no harm, and you all will die. Gallaxhar out."

"Let the birth of my new planet - now called... "Gallaxhar's... Planet" begin!!"

"[telling his life-story; is constantly interrupted by his cloning machine pressing him down] Many zentons ago, when I was but a squidling, I found out that my parents were... No child should ever have to endure that! So I went on the road, with a giant... And soon thereafter was married! Things were going well, until she wanted to... And I was all "No way!", and she was all "Yes way!", and I was like... But I've told you too much already!"

"[Susan tries to escape his forcefield] Don't bother, that forcefield is impenetrable-- [Susan smashes her fist through, nearly hitting Gallaxhar] WHAT THE FLAGNOG?!"

"[looking at Susan on a monitor] Oh, you think because you're all big and strong, and you can destroy my robot probe, that you're gonna send me running and hiding?! My days of running and hiding are over. Computer set a course to Earth! I will retrieve the Quantonium myself... even if I need to rip it out of her body, one cell at a time!"

"Nothing can stand in my way now!"

"Extract the Quantonium with extreme prejudice. I want it all. Every last drop!"

"The Omega Quadrant? Lame!"

"(after Luc beats up many of the men inside the diner) Did you enjoy your lunch?"

"All right look. Do you have a family, a friend? Is there a Mrs. 44 waiting for you some place?"

"How can you be so damn calm? I mean, your buddies back there just shot enough ammo at us to destroy Eastern Europe, and you're sitting here bitching at me about a goddamned seat belt?"

"What the hell are you staring at? Do you have any idea what is it like out there? DO YOU?! Well, I'm fighting this thing man, I kick ass, who kiss ass, and I'm busting heads. It's the only way to win this fucking war. And these shitheads... these yellow traitoring motherfuckers... they're everywhere. And I, Sgt. Andrew Scott of the U.S. Army... I'm gonna teach 'em... all."

"Now I'm gonna teach you the chain of command, private! When I say: "Jump", you say: "How high?" Got it? Got it? Take it and stick in your fucking head!"

"[after he shot the prison bus driver that was driving Luc and Veronica] Excuse me! You should check out your driver! He don't look so hot! Hahaha!"

"Are we having fun yet?"

"Do you wanna play catch?"

"(fighting with Scott) No, I’m alive."

"You're discharged, Sarge."

"I just want to go home."

"God didn't kill that little girl. Fate didn't butcher her. Destiny didn't feed her to those dogs. If God saw what any of us did that night, he didn't seem to mind. From then on I knew; God doesn't make the world this way, we do."

"It's a two-and-a-half hour R-rated movie, and there's no precedent for that type of film becoming a huge blockbuster. What's popular about The Dark Knight is that it's a superhero movie at its core. When Batman puts on his costume, that's badass: 'Yeah Batman, go kick some ass'. Watchmen is an entirely different experience: it punishes the audience. It says: "Oh you like the Comedian? Oh, he's a rapist, by the way."

"There are other superhero movies where they joke about how basically no one’s getting hurt. That’s not us. What is that message? That’s it’s okay that there’s this massive destruction with zero consequence for anyone? That’s what Watchmen was about in a lot of ways too. There was a scene, that scene where Dan and Laurie get mugged. They beat up the criminals. I was like the first guy, I want to show his arm get broken. I want a compound fracture. I don’t want it to be clean. I want you to go, ‘Oh my God, I guess you’re right. If you just beat up a guy in an alley he’s not going to just be lying on the ground. It’s going to be messy."

"David Hayter's screenplay was as close as I could imagine anyone getting to [a film version of] Watchmen. That said, I shan't be going to see it. My book is a comic book. Not a movie, not a novel. A comic book. It's been made in a certain way, and designed to be read a certain way."

"Q: So the studio had reservations about the ending, because of September 11 and because people wouldn't be ready for it. But weren't you worried about changing the ending, as someone who loved the graphic novel?"

"A: The ending of the book shows just piles of corpses, bloody corpses in the middle of Times Square, people hanging out of windows just slaughtered on a massive scale. To do that in a comic book, and release it in 1985, is different from doing it real life, in a movie, and seeing all of these people brutally massacred in the middle of Times Square post 2001. That's a legitimate concern, and one that I shared."

"A: All in all, using 9/11 as an excuse to change the ending of the movie doesn't sit right with me - especially since the film already shows a little girl in a dog's mouth and plenty of gore earlier in the film. Why spend so much time remaining true to the book, only to drop the ball in the final act? I sympathize with film-makers who have to work with the studios, but they could have tried harder to meet them halfway. Perhaps it didn't have to be as graphic as the novel, but there must have been some way the filmmakers could have demonstrated the lives that had been taken. The loss of those images creates more confusion, and dilutes the seriousness of the movie's grand finale."
