Now you are in the upcoming movie "Battleship", a movie where alien robots invade Earth from the ocean. -Yes that's how it is. -So I guess my first question is, how come I'm not in that movie?!

They say it makes problems go away. - Sure, that makes sense. Yes. -Look, you're a sweet girl, Leslie Nielsen, but you're missing the key qualities of a true movie star, namely, the sun-dried skin of a gremlin with oak tan and the chaotic hairline of a Bettlejuice. Puerto Rican. And that's why we leave an empty chair on Passover. I'm sure that's not right. -You just made my list, Schindler! -What list is that? -My list of Christmas cards. I send them to you in April when you least expect it! -Hey. Be careful, Nick. I have some very particular abilities... -Oh. "...skills I've acquired over a long career, skills that make me a nightmare to the likes of you." -Yes, your famous monologue from the "Taken" trailer.
I have to confess. The first time I saw him I was so terrified that Ra's al Ghul and Qui-Gon Jinn sank into my stomach. I had to send The Fixer to bring them back home. That's possibly the most disgusting thing I've ever heard. -That's high praise. Well, as my "Face/Off" co-star John Travolta would say, "What Jewish masseuse do you have to trick to get a job in this town?"

"That's very kind of you, Paul, but the pleasure is all mine." Now, you are currently preparing to film a movie called "Ant-Man" about a brilliant thief who uses his superpowers to shrink himself and communicate with insects. -Yes it's correct.
Yes. -So I guess my first question is how come I'm not in that movie? It looks like it has all the classic elements of a Nic Cage movie. One, hot lunches served daily. And, two, between meals, soups were provided. -Well, surely you would have made a great Ant-Man. -Of course. I was born to play a superhero. I have my own super natural suit: a thick, soft layer of coarse body hair, impervious to bullets. It's like a barbed wire, electric fence wrapped around a deranged water bison. I don't know how to answer that. Yeah, I don't think it really matters.
Seth, my old friend! Wow! You look so young! So it's true what they say. You found the holy grail, the cup of eternal youth long sought by my father, Indiana Jones. -Actually, my name is Colin. -Don't correct me, haircut! "So what have you been up to, Nic?" -Oh! Well, it's been a great year for me. I hit 50 on January 7th. -Oh, is that so? Wow. I can't believe you're 50 years old. -No, I mean that I made 50 films between New Years and January 7th.

I receive your appeal. You are a common man. But so would I, if every man wandered around his mansion in a silk kimono, cursing the gods in some lost language until the Santa Monica police show up and tell him the neighbors would like to "move out forever." -I live next to you. It's a nightmare. I saw you naked in your backyard, and I had to take a three-day shower. -That's high praise.
You're a sweet kid, Ruddyard Kipling, but you lack the key qualities of a true movie star, namely a flowing mane that resembles a ferret's carcass stapled to the skull of a class skeleton. And that's why we light the menorah on Labor Day. -That's a Hanukkah thing. I don't have time to argue with you! And so I must ride to my next adventure. -And what is that? I'm going to make a Magna Carta tea bag. -Nic Cage and Paul Rudd, everyone! -Thank you.
