Banzai Quotes in The Lion King (1994)

Banzai: [In the hyenas' lair, Banzai slouches with claw marks on his rear] Man, that lousy Mufasa... I won't be able to sit for a *week!*

Ed the Hyena: [laughs, but also tries his best to conceal it from time to time] Eh-hee-hee-hee. Heh-heheheheheheheheheh...

Banzai: [Glares at Ed and bares his teeth with impatience] It's not funny, Ed.

Ed the Hyena: [Cups his paws over his mouth then bursts into hysterical laughter, spitting as his tongue lofts out of his mouth] BA-HA-HA-HAAAA! HA-AH-AH-AH-AH!

[Inhales deeply]

Banzai: Hey, shut up!

Ed the Hyena: AH-HA-HO! HO-HO-HO-HO!

Banzai: [Bares his teeth] Grrrrrr...

[as Ed continues to laugh, Banzai barks and pounces on Ed, abruptly ending his laughing. The two commence a brief fight]

Shenzi: [Rolls her eyes and turns to the two yelping and rolling atop each other aggressively] Will you knock it off?

Banzai: [ed appears to be chewing on Banzai's leg; Banzai sits up] Well, he started it!

[It is now obvious that Ed is chewing his own leg repeatedly]

Shenzi: Look at you guys! No wonder we're dangling at the bottom of the food chain!

Banzai: [a string of drool dangles from his chin] Man, I hate dangling...

Shenzi: [Scoffs] Yeah? You know, if it weren't for those lions, we'd be *runnin'* the joint.

[Ed nods idiotically]

Banzai: Man, I *hate* lions!

Shenzi: [Grumbles] So pushy...

Banzai: And hairy...

Shenzi: [Smiles] Stinky...

Banzai: [Grins] And man are they...

Banzai, Shenzi: [Elongated use of the 'u'] U-GLY!

[both laugh hysterically]

[Timon and Zazu are cornered by hyenas]

Timon: Please don't eat me.

Pumbaa: Drop 'em!

Banzai: Hey! Who's the pig?

Pumbaa: Are you talkin' to me?

Timon: Uh-oh, they called him a pig.

Pumbaa: Are you talking to *me*?

Timon: Ya shouldn't have done that.

Pumbaa: ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?

Timon: Now they're in for it.

Pumbaa: THEY CALL ME MR. PIG!

[Charging towards the Hyenas]

Pumbaa: AHHHH!

Shenzi: Well, well, well, Banzai, what have we got here?

Banzai: Hmm, I don't know Shenzi uh, what do you think Ed?

Ed the Hyena: Oo ehehe, oh hahahaha

Banzai: Yeah, just what I was thinking, a trio of trespassers.

Zazu: And quite by accident let me assure you...

Shenzi: Whoa, whoa, wait wait. I know you, you're Mufasa's little stooge.

Zazu: I madame, am the king's majordomo.

Banzai: And that would make you...?

Young Simba: The future King!

Shenzi: Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom?

Young Simba: Puh, you can't do anything to me.

Zazu: Uh-uh, technically they can, we are on their land.

Young Simba: But Zazu, you told me they are nothing but slobbery, mangy stupid poachers.

Zazu: Ix-nay on the upid-stay...

Banzai: Who you callin' upid-stay?

Banzai: But we gotta finish the job.

Shenzi: Well, he's as good as dead out there anyway. And *if* he comes back, we'll kill him.

Banzai: [calling out to Simba] Yeah! You hear that? If you ever come back, we'll kill ya!

Shenzi: Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom?

Young Simba: Puh. You can't do anything to me.

Zazu: Uhh... technically, they can. We are on their land.

Young Simba: But Zazu, you told me they're nothing but slobbering mangy stupid poachers.

Zazu: Ix-nay on the oopid-stay...

Banzai: Who're you callin' "oopid-stay?"

Zazu: Oh, my, my, my. Look at the sun. It's time to go!

Banzai: Hey, Boss!

Scar: Oh, what is it this time?

Banzai: We've got a bone to pick with you!

Shenzi: I'll handle this. Scar, there's no food, no water...

Banzai: Yeah, it's dinner time, and we ain't got no stinkin' entrees.

Scar: It's the lionesses' job to do the hunting.

Banzai: Yeah, but they won't go hunt.

Scar: Oh... eat Zazu.

Zazu: Oh, you wouldn't want me. I'd be so tough and gamey and... eeww...

Scar: Oh, Zazu, don't be ridiculous. All you need is a little garnish.

Banzai: I thought things were bad under Mufasa.

Scar: What did you say?

Banzai: I said Muf...

[Shenzi elbows him]

Banzai: I said, uh... Que pasa?

Scar: Good. Now get out.

Banzai: Yeah, but... we're still hungry.

Scar: *Out*!

Scar: Ahh, my friends.

Shenzi: Friends? I thought he said we were the enemy.

Banzai: That's what I heard. Ed?

Ed the Hyena: Oo-oo-ooh, he-he, he-he-he

Shenzi: What's the hurry? We'd love you to stick around for dinner.

Banzai: Yeah. We could have whatever's "lion" around.

Shenzi: Oh wait, wait, wait. I got one, I got one. Make mine a "cub" sandwich. Whatcha think?

[all laugh]

Shenzi: [Ed points]

Shenzi: What, Ed?

Banzai: Hey, did we order this dinner to go?

Shenzi: No, why?

Banzai: 'Cause THERE IT GOES!

Shenzi: [Banzai's stomach growls] Shut up.

Banzai: I can't help it. I'm so hungry... I gotta have a wildebeest.

Shenzi: Stay *put*.

Banzai: Well... can't I just pick off one of the little sick ones?

Shenzi: NO! Wait for the signal from Scar.

[Scar appears on the horizon]

Shenzi: There he is. Let's go.

Banzai: Oh, Scar, it's just you.

Shenzi: We were afraid it was somebody important.

Banzai: Yeah, you know, like Mufasa.

Scar: I see.

Banzai: Now that's power.

Shenzi: Tell me about it. I just hear that name and I shudder.

Banzai: Mufasa!

Shenzi: Ooooh! Do it again!

Banzai: Mufasa!

Shenzi: Ooooh!

Banzai: Mufasa, Mufasa, Mufasa!

Shenzi: Ooooh!

[breaks into laughter]

Shenzi: And it tingles me!

Scar: I'm *surrounded* by idiots.

Shenzi: Hey. There he goes. There he goes.

Banzai: So go get him.

Shenzi: There ain't no way I'm going in there. What, you want me to come out there looking like you? Cactus-Butt?

Banzai: Yeah, be prepared! We'll be prepared... for what?

Scar: For the death of the king!

Banzai: Why? Is he sick?

Scar: No, fool, we're going to kill him. And Simba, too.

Shenzi: Hey, great idea! Who needs a king?

Banzai, Shenzi: [singing and dancing around Ed] No king, no king, la la la la la la...

Scar: Idiots! There will *be* a king!

Banzai: Hey, but you said that...

Scar: *I* will be king. Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again!

Banzai, Shenzi: Yeah, all right! Long live the king!

[other hyenas join in]

Banzai, Shenzi: Long live the king! Long live the king!

Banzai: The little majordomo bird, hippity-hop, all the way to the birdie boiler.

Zazu: Oh no, not the birdie boiler!

[Zazu rockets away, with his Tail Feathers on Fire]

Shenzi: What's the hurry? We'd looove you to stick around for dinner.

Banzai: Yeaaaah! We could have whatever's... "lion" around!. Get it? Lion around!

Shenzi: Oh wait, wait, wait. I got one, I got one. Make mine a "cub" sandwich. Whatcha think?
