Marlena Diamond Quotes in Cloverfield (2008)

Hud: Ocean is big, dude. All I'm saying is a couple of years ago, they found a fish in Madagascar that they thought been extinct for centuries.

Rob Hawkins: So what? It's been down there this whole time, and nobody noticed?

Hud: Sure. Maybe it erupted from an ocean trench, you know? Or a crevasse. Crevice. It's just a theory. I mean, for all we know, it's from another planet and it flew here.

Marlena Diamond: Like Superman?

Hud: Yeah, exactly like... Wait. You know who Superman is?

Marlena Diamond: Oh, my God. You know who Superman is?

Hud: Okay, I'm not...

Marlena Diamond: [sarcastically] I'm, like, feeling something. Are you aware of Garfield.

Hud: Do you guys remember a couple of years ago when that guy was lighting homeless people on fire in the subways?

Rob Hawkins: Jesus, Hud! Maybe not the best time for this conversation down here!

Hud: Right.

[awkward silent pause]

Hud: I just can't stop thinking how scary it'd be if a flaming homeless guy came running...

Rob Hawkins, Lily Ford, Marlena Diamond: HUD!

Hud: I'm just saying. Sorry.

Hud: One of them grabbed me, tried to drag me away. What's up with that?

Marlena Diamond: Maybe it liked you, Hud.

Marlena Diamond: It's eating people.

Marlena Diamond: Guys? I don't feel so good.

Marlena Diamond: Hey Rob! Uh, Marlena. We probably met like three times total, and every one of those times I've seen you were drunk, so I don't really know what to say. But you have a really cool job! That's something. You're like President of something.

Hud: Vice President!

Marlena Diamond: Also really cool! So good luck with that, and so we're going to be here, in New York, really safe and fine for you when you come back.

Hud: Cool. That was a really good one!

Marlena Diamond: Yeah.

Hud: Yeah. We can do another one of you if you want.

Marlena Diamond: What?

Hud: I'm not a professional. I'm Hud.

Marlena Diamond: Hug?

Hud: Thanks for... thanks for coming back for me back there. I really appreciate it.

Marlena Diamond: What would make you think that I'm the kind of person that wouldn't do that?
