Quotes
-
Donald Swan : There's something about you that I think not a lot of people know, and that is that you wanted to be a cartoonist.
Hugh M. Hefner : That's true, yes.
Ricky : You went the right way though, man. You did.
-
Ricky : Hef, you're really, like, my favorite superhero. 'Cause you were talking about how everything was, like, buttoned-down in the 50s, Don. Well, Hef kinda came along and crashed through that wall and broke down all the taboos. You're like Pajama Man, and I could be your sidekick, like I could be Chick... Chick Boy.
-
Ricky : Are there gonna be chicks there dressed like Vampirella?
Taylor Donohue : Is that all you think about?
Ricky : Yep.
Taylor Donohue : Good man.

[looking at a picture of a steam-engine train]
Donald Swan : Now, y'see, to me, that's a train. It looks like a train, it's old, it's~
Ricky : I think to everyone that's a train, 'cause it is.
-
Ricky : Hey, Jenny, is there anybody dressed as the Hulk?
Debby Newman : You know what, I did see Darth Vader!
Ricky : Okay. Is he the Hulk?
-
[Ricky is giving advice to Leo on meeting girls]
Ricky : And don't, like, get all touchy-feely and stuff. That's grabbin', and it makes 'em uncomfortable. Save it for later, after you get 'em liquored up.
-
Ricky : Tell her about her lips. She's got beautiful lips.
Leo Matuzik : You've got great lips. They're almost like - they look like beautiful... red worms kinda, like, touching each other. You know what I mean?
Laura Nativo : [smiles innocently] Is that supposed to be a compliment?
-
Ricky : I notice that a lot of these comic books you're selling are old, and I think maybe you'd do more business if you got some brand-new ones, because people like to have new stuff more than old.
-
Phil Morris : You talked about black superheroes. I have yet to see one. Look at me! How come I can't be a superhero?
Taylor Donohue : It's not that.
Phil Morris : You didn't take the meeting, and now you're here. Are you in my face now over this?
Taylor Donohue : I'm not in your face. No, you ~
Ricky : [interrupting] You are kinda in his face.
Taylor Donohue : Now, with a new movie, there are no walls for you, but ~
Ricky : Keep going, you're doing good.
Phil Morris : So there was a movie you had with a role you didn't see me for, and now you have a movie that has no role and now you're seeing me.
Taylor Donohue : What you just said, but double it and bring it back.
-
[the party guest is extolling the virtues of his hallucinogenic drink]
Drunken Party Guest : You know you're there when you've seen the green fairy.
Ricky : The Hulk? What, is the green fairy the Hulk? Dude, I'm way into the Hulk. Is that him?
Drunken Party Guest : [rubbing his temples] Give me strength. No, no.
Ricky : I'm curious, because if drinking that would get me hooked up with the Hulk, I'd be into it.
Drunken Party Guest : That is when you know that you are in touch with your inner brain stem.
Ricky : When the Hulk is hanging with you?
Drunken Party Guest : That is when you know that you are in the place occupied by Poe.
Ricky : And Bill Bixby.

Taylor Donohue : Yeah, well, he's out. That's his swan song, and ~
Ricky : Yeah, speaking of swan songs, dude, where is Don Swan? You know, he wouldn't have missed that meeting. He loves old guys. And comic books.
