Avatar Quotes in Wizards (1977)

Avatar: Oh yeah... one more thing: I'm glad you changed your last name, you son of a bitch!

Avatar: I'm too old for this sort of thing. Just wake me up when the planet's destroyed.

Blackwolf: Brother, there is no need for me to destroy you. Surrender! Surrender your world!

Avatar: [clapping] You always did need an audience you sap.

Avatar: [to companions] I'll be right down, Heroes!

Avatar: [leading Peace by a rope] Allright, creep, Now before I untie you, I wanna tell you a couple of things, and I want you to listen, and listen carefully. This has been the biggest bummer of a trip I've ever been on; but if you let me down, or you hurt my friends, especially the broad, I got stuff planned for you that'll take twenty years to kill ya.

Peace: ...no pain...

Avatar: ...And you'll be screaming for mercy in the first five seconds.

Peace: Peace wants love... wants free... will help.

Avatar: [jerks leash] Look, just get us there, ya got it?

Avatar: [to Weehawk] You know, the world owes you much, kid. Even if we don't take another step.

Avatar: Now this, "Peace" here, he knows every step to Scorch. I've promised him life without pain, life without fear...

Weehawk: I still don't trust him.

Avatar: Hey! You're both forgettin' you have the protection of a powerful wizard, here!

[levitates up to horse, lands backward in saddle]

Avatar: Dammit...

Elinore: [giggling] He's gettin' older, but not much bolder!

[Both Weehawk and Elinore laugh and ride away]

Avatar: I wonder if I packed my scotch...

Elly: [explains what she would do if free to do anything] I would create a virtual world, filled with beauty and opportunity. And everyone and everything in that world would ultimately be one. But they just didn't know it.

Avatar: Why would you do that?

Elly: So that through their own effort and striving, every element in that world could overcome the boundaries that divide them. And they could form this incredibly strong and vital bond, that could have never even been conceived of had the pain of it's opposite didn't exist.

Elly: There's no more brilliant light than that which follows complete darkness.

[last lines]

Elly: You're not going to be deleted, Craig.

Avatar: But you said, game over. The end.

Elly: It *is* over, Craig. You ended it just by the willingness to give yourself completely. That's the point. The whole game, the billions of avatars in their situations and trials, tribulations - every so often one of you does that. And then, they're no longer bound to the game, 'cause they've already won.

Avatar: [video chatting] How old are you?

Elly: Um, I'm not really... there's no time here, so there's, so I can't really answer that.

Avatar: Okay, where is here?

Elly: In my room.

Avatar: Which is where? What State are you in?

Elly: I'm in the state of endless possibility and limitless dimension.

Avatar: This whole freewill thing, I don't get it. Why did you build it into the program?

Elly: When you can go either way, but you choose to do the right thing, there's nothing more gratifying to me than that.

Avatar: But what if I choose wrong?

Elly: You won't.

Avatar: How do you know?

Elly: I know everything.

Avatar: [pondering] Then that's not really freewill, is it.

Elly: Sure it is. I know because I'm not subject to time. Which is just another construct of the program. I know what you'll do it, but I'm not making you do it.

Avatar: Hmm. And I guess you can always shut it down if it's not going the way you hoped.

Elly: I don't hope Craig. I program.

Avatar: I want to be like you. Elly.

Elly: You are. I programmed you in my image.
