Movie quotes

  • (..) Here's what you won, right here. There you go. You were racing a bunch of skateboards. Know what I mean? My sister holds the money. Count it. And you're my trophy. - Hey, Monica. What's up, baby? - What's your problem? You didn't win. Fuck you then! Was that fun? Got a problem there, buddy? (..)
