Ahmed Faraz (Lyricist)




Wah! Wah!
[in english]
Let it be anguish, come still to torment my heart 
Do come again, even if just to leave me once again
[original]
"Ranjish hee sahee dil hee dukhaane ke liye aa
aa phir se mujhe chhod ke jaane ke liye aa"



Man on Fire


A soulful revenge!

[translated from the Spanish]
song lyrics: A word does not say anything, and at the same time it hides everything. Just as the wind that hides the water, like the flowers that mud hides. A glance does not say anything, and at the same time it says everything. Like rain on your face, or an old treasure map. A truth does not say anything, and at the same time it hides everything. Like a bonfire that does not go out, like a stone that is born dust. If one day you need me, I will be nothing. And at the same time I will be everything. Because in your eyes are my wings, and the shore where I drown. Because in your eyes are my wings, and the shore where I drown

Rayburn: A man can be an artist... in anything, food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. Creasey's art is death. He's about to paint his masterpiece.

Rockstar by Nickelback (Song)


I really don't mind all these ;). Cool song with cooler lyrics!
 I'm through with standing in line to the clubs I'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth and I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be
(tell me what you want)
I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me
(yeah, so what you need)
I'll need a, a credit card that's got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club 
At thirty-seven thousand feet
(Been there done that)
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between cher and 
James Dean is fine for me
(So how you gonna do it?)
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name
[CHORUS]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
Livin' in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's 
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny 
with her bleach blonde hair
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary 
in today's who's who
We'll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody's got a 
drug dealer on speed dial 
well..
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

The Dark Knight



Joker, made himself immortal, just in time!


The Joker: Oh, you. You just couldn't let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You are truly incorruptible, aren't you? Huh? You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won't kill you because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.
-----------------------------
Batman: What did you do?
The Joker: I took Gotham's white knight and I brought him down to our level. It wasn't hard. You see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push!

Kuruthipunal (Tamil - Indian)



Only Kamal Hassan could have done it!
Kamal to Naseer:
You know what’s courage? It’s acting as if you were not afraid!
Kamal to Naseer:
Dhairiyam na enna theriyuma? Bayam illadha madhiri nadikiradhu!

The Interpreter




Amazing mixture of emotion and soul with thriller plot. Goos usage of silent shots that convey a lot.


Zuwanie: [reading from the dedication of a book he wrote decades earlier] THE GUNFIRE AROUND us makes it hard to hear. But the human voice is different from other sounds. It can be heard over noises that bury everything else. Even when it's not shouting. Even when it's just a whisper. Even the lowest whisper can be heard - -over armies... when it's telling the truth

The Matrix


Too many dialogues in a totally different perspective! Well thought and well talked movie.


Morpheus: If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Morpheus: What are you waiting for? You're faster than this. Don't think you are, know you are. Come on. Stop trying to hit me and hit me
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Spoon boy: There is no spoon.
Neo: There is no spoon?
Spoon boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only you

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agent Smith: I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agent Smith: Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world? Where none suffered, where everyone would be happy. It was a disaster. No one would accept the program. Entire crops were lost. Some believed we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world. But I believe that, as a species, human beings define their reality through suffering and misery. The perfect world was a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this: the peak of your civilization

The Big Kahuna


Never thought that this movie will make such a mark until the last 10 mins! A very different flick
Larry Mann: Well, I'll be a son of a bitch! I don't smoke, you quit drinking, Bob here wouldn't even dream of looking at another woman with lust... between the three of us, we're practically Jesus.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phil Cooper: It doesn't matter whether you're selling Jesus or Buddha or civil rights or 'How to Make Money in Real Estate With No Money Down.' That doesn't make you a human being; it makes you a marketing rep. If you want to talk to somebody honestly, as a human being, ask him about his kids. Find out what his dreams are - just to find out, for no other reason. Because as soon as you lay your hands on a conversation to steer it, it's not a conversation anymore; it's a pitch. And you're not a human being; you're a marketing rep.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bob Walker: Throw me in the water and see if I can swim
Larry Mann: I think you're missing the point here Bob, we're about to throw you off a cliff and see if you can fly.

Rang de Basathi (Hindi - Indian)



This would easily qualify for the top ten dialogues of the century!
As Amir Khan says with smile!
DJ:  ek paon past mein, ek paon future mein,
         isiliye to aaj pe moot rahe hain
------
DJ: We have one leg in past, one leg in future,
        that is why we are pissing on the present!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The British police on Indian freedom fighters
Mr. McHeneley: [In his diary] I always believed there were two kinds of men in this world, 
men who go to their deaths screaming, and 
men who go to their deaths in silence. 
Then I met a third kind

V for Vendetta


The number of words starting with "V" is the highlight, as Mr "V" introduces himself!
Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Evey Hammond: Oh. Right.
V: But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace sobriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona.
V: VoilĂ ! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
[carves V into poster on wall]
V: The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
[giggles]
V: Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.
