Arthur Poppington Quotes in Defendor (2009)

Arthur Poppington: Why do you smoke that stuff?

Kat: Why do you dress up like a superhero?

Arthur Poppington: Mmm... 'Cause superheroes aren't stupid. They're not afraid. And when I'm Defendor, I'm not Arthur any more. I'm a million times better than Arthur.

Kat: Well, when I smoke that stuff, I'm not afraid or stupid. I'm not me, either. It's the same.

Arthur Poppington: Yeah, but you should want to be you because you're really pretty.

Arthur Poppington: I'll see you on the moon.

Kat: Defender?

Arthur Poppington: [Emphasizing] De-FEN-DOR!

Arthur Poppington: She's *not* a hooker! She's a *friend*!

Arthur Poppington: Guns don't hurt me.

Kat: Here. You can even have your comic back, too. First issue. You think it's worth something? You're wrong. Some geek offered me four bucks for it. Apparently Strontium 90 and the Hellhound Gang sucks balls.

Arthur Poppington: You shouldn't take other people's stuff.

Kat: Oh, really? Thanks for the tip. Should I suck your cock now?

Paul Carter: [to the Judge] He dresses up in tights and he calls himself Defendor, with a big D on his chest and on a cape.

Arthur Poppington: There'll be time for questions later. Right now, I need your help.

Arthur Poppington: Trouble has a way of following me.

Arthur Poppington: I'm gonna capture Captain Industry!

Arthur Poppington: There are at least eight ways to break out of this dump. I'm taking the front door.

Arthur Poppington: Well, you spend all of my money on drugs.

Kat: Yeah, and...?

Arthur Poppington: Well, you should spend it on a typewriter, like Lois Lane.

Kat: Well guess what? I'm not Lois Lane, and you're not fucking Superman. So go jack off on some other fantasy, all right?

Dr. Park: Arthur? Arthur.
