My father in the film - which we probably haven't seen in previous movies, and in British Asian movies you could probably count on one hand - he says exactly why, actually why he's frightened for his daughter. He came to this country, England, and ha...

Constanze Mozart: What are you doing here? Antonio Salieri: Your husband took sick. I brought him home. Constanze Mozart: But why you? Antonio Salieri: Because, madam, I was at hand.
Jack O'Donnell: I am not going to leave him at the airport with six people and his dick in his hand. Tell the Director to call the White House. Do your fucking job!
[Fury hands Natasha an image of the Quinjet in the Pacific] Nick Fury: He probably made it out and swam to Fiji, he'll send a postcard. Natasha Romanoff: [sadly] Wish you were here.
[Grace's last lines] Dr. Grace Augustine: Jake... Jake Sully: [takes her hand, speaks hopefully] Grace...? Dr. Grace Augustine: I'm with Her now, Jake. She is real... [dies]

[time traveling Evan at age 7 threatens George Miller with a lighted stick of dynamite] Mr. George Miller: Evan! Put that out, or you'll blow off both your hands! Evan at 7: Been there, done that.
