Neil McCormick Quotes in Killing Bono (2011)

Ivan McCormick: So, fill me in, brother, how much are we into Danny Machin for?

Neil McCormick: All in all? Thirteen grand. Give or take.

Ivan McCormick: Thirteen grand? What is that? Five grand a kneecap and three for our heads?

Neil McCormick: ...That doesn't add up, Ivan.

Neil McCormick: Hello? Hi, where is Hammond?

Rick: Are you the new runners?

Neil McCormick: No, no no, of course we are not the new runners. We're the McCormicks! We're Hammond's new act, we're just here to sign the old contracts.

Rick: Hammond is history. Axed. Kept spunking cash into Kajagoogoo. I'm the new Hammond.

Neil McCormick: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What was the last thing he said before he left?

Rick: Let me think uh... "I'm gonna sue you bastards right through the arsehole". Then he sort of... broke down. It was all very uncool.

Ivan McCormick: Yeah but he did tell you about our deal?

Neil McCormick: And the fifty grand advance?

Rick: Oh yeah... it's ringing bells. Ding-a-ling-ling! But I would say a hundred's more realistic.

Ivan McCormick: [surprised] A hundred grand?

Rick: Yeah! I'll tell you what: You boys will look fucking fantastic on camera! We'll do you a video to rival Duran Duran.

Neil McCormick: Ok, yeah!

Rick: And we'll shoot it ON THE MOON!

Ivan McCormick: What? Really?

Rick: NO! Not really! In fact, I'll tell you why you boys will never be signed to this label. You look like a pair of mental fortune tellers from a gypsy fair. And Hammond liked you, therefore, I hate you! I wouldn't sign you to this label if you paid me a hundred grand and let me John Paul Pope your mother.
