Halina: We could hide the money. Look here. We can hide the money under the flower pots.
Father: No, no, no, no, I'll tell you what we do. We use tried and tested methods. You know what we did in the last war? We made a hole in the table leg
[taps the leg]
Father: and hid the money in there.
Henryk

Szpilman: And suppose they take the table away?
Father: What do you mean, take the table away?
Henryk Szpilman: The Germans go into Jewish homes and they just take what they want, furniture, valuable, anything.
Mother: Do they?
Father: Idiot, what would they want with a table, a table like

this?
[rips a piece of wood off the table]
Mother: What on earth are you doing!
Halina: No, listen. This is the best place for it. No-one would think of looking under the flower pots.
Henryk Szpilman: No, no, no, listen, listen to me, I've been thinking...
Wladyslaw Szpilman: Oh, really? That's a

change.
Henryk Szpilman: You know what we do? We use psychology.
Wladyslaw Szpilman: We use *what*?
Henryk Szpilman: We leave the money and the watch on the table, and we cover it like this, in full view.
Wladyslaw Szpilman: [amazed] Are you stupid?
Henryk Szpilman: The Germans

will search high and low, I promise you, they'll never notice!
Wladyslaw Szpilman: That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen, of course they'll notice it. Look.
[takes the violin and a bill, folds it and slips it into the opening of the violin]
Wladyslaw Szpilman: Look here... idiot.
Henryk Szpilman: And you call me

stupid?
Mother: No, that is very good, because that is the last place they will ever look.
Henryk Szpilman: This will take hours!
Mother: We're not in a hurry, we'll get it back...
Wladyslaw Szpilman: It won't take hours.
Henryk Szpilman: How will you get them out? Tell me that,

tell me how, I'd like to know, how would you get them out. You take each one out individually...
Halina: No-one listens to me, no-one.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Ah, Logan. I'd like you to meet Ororo Monroe, also called Storm. This is Scott Summers, also called Cyclops. They saved your life. I believe you already know Dr. Jean Grey. You are in my School for the Gifted for Mutants. You'll be safe here from Magneto.
Wolverine: What's a Magneto?
Prof. Charles Francis

Xavier: A very powerful mutant. He believes that a war is brewing between mutants and the rest of humanity. I've been following his activities for some time. The man who attacked you is an associate of his called Sabertooth.
Wolverine: Sabertooth?
[looks at Storm]
Wolverine: Storm.
[looks at Xavier]

Wolverine: What do they call you? "Wheels"? This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Students.
[looks at Cyclops]
Wolverine: And Cyclops, right?
[grabs Cyclops]
Wolverine: You wanna get outta my way?
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Logan, it's been almost fifteen years, hasn't it? Living from

day to day, moving from place to place, with no memory of who or what you are.
Wolverine: Shut up!
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Give me a chance. I might be able to help you find some answers.
Wolverine: How do you know?

Peter Parker: This is the maintenance closet, Gwen. This is most cliched hiding place you could've chosen. This is the stupidest hiding place.
Gwen Stacy: I'm sorry, I didn't take us to the Bahamas of hiding places.

[Peter and Gwen are hiding in a maintenance closet]
Gwen Stacy: There was an accident in the genomics lab, and they're covering it up. And I found out. That guy from Times Square last night? I met him. He was an electrical engineer in the building. And he loved Spider-Man, by the way. He was, like, a fanatic.
Peter Parker: I didn't get love vibes

last night. I got more of a "want to kill me with his electricity" vibe.
Gwen Stacy: That's actually kind of what it's like to love you. I was searching for him in the computer and all the files. He's erased.
Peter Parker: My God.
Gwen Stacy: He's completely erased.
Peter Parker: That's Oscorp.

Gwen Stacy: And what about you? Why are you here?
Peter Parker: Harry.
Gwen Stacy: Osborn?
Peter Parker: He's dying.
Gwen Stacy: What do you mean?
Peter Parker: He's dying, and he thinks the only thing that's gonna save his life is my blood; Spider-Man's blood.

And as far as I know, if I give it to him, it could kill him.
Gwen Stacy: Or something worse.
Peter Parker: I know. This is the maintenance closet, Gwen. This is the most clichéd hiding place you could've chosen. This is the stupidest hiding place.
Gwen Stacy: [sarcastically] Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't take us to the Bahamas of

hiding places.

Augustus Waters: Hello, are you Monica's mother?
Monica's Mom: I am...
Augustus Waters: Hello, ma'am. Your daughter, she's done a great injustice, so we've come here seeking revenge. You see, we may not look like much, but between the three of us we have five legs, four eyes and two and a half pairs of working lungs, but we also have

two dozen eggs, so if I were you, I would go back inside.
[Monica's mother looks freaked and goes back inside]
Isaac: Did... That actually worked?
Augustus Waters: Yep.
Isaac: That was the stupidest speech I've ever... That actually worked?

Rita: And they think the stupidest things are funny.

Seven Psychopaths
Seven Psychopaths

Marty: You know what I think the movie should be? The first half should be a perfect setup for an out-and-out revenge flick. Violence. Guns. All the usual bullshit. And then... The lead characters should just walk away. They should just drive off into the desert and pitch a tent somewhere and just talk for the rest of the frigging movie. No shoot-outs, no pay-offs. Just human

beings talking.
Billy: What, are we making French movies now? That sounds like the stupidest ending. No shoot-outs? That sounds like the stupidest ending I've ever fucking... NO SHOOT-OUTS?
Marty: No?
Billy: NO!
