Movie quotes

  • (..) Michael, wait up! Michael! Michael! Wow, you're fast. I'm gladi caught up with you. I waited five hours for you. Why is your coat so big? So, good news... I saw a dog today. Have you seen a dog? You probably have. How was school? Was it fun? Did you get a lot of homework, huh? Do you have any friends? Do you have a best friend? Does he have a big coat, too? Go away! Ow! Son of a nutcracker! Run! Get him! Get the green guy! (..)
