Thumper Quotes in Diamonds Are Forever (1971)

Bambi: [seductively] I'm "Bambi."

Thumper: And I am "Thumper." Is there something we can do for you?

James Bond: I can think of several things, off hand...

James Bond: And, eh, that's all there is to it?

Thumper: Not quite. First, we're going to have a ball!

[Knees Bond in the crotch]

Flower: [about two birds fluttering around] Well! What's the matter with them?

Thumper: Why are they acting that way?

Friend Owl: Why, don't you know? They're twitterpated.

Flower, Thumper, Bambi: Twitterpated?

Friend Owl: Yes. Nearly everybody gets twitterpated in the springtime. For example: you're walking along, minding your own business. You're looking neither to the left, nor to the right, when all of a sudden, you run smack into a pretty face. Woo-woo! You begin to get weak in the knees. Your head's in a whirl. And then you feel light as a feather; and before you know it, you're walking on air. And then you know what? You're knocked for a loop, and you completely lose your head!

Thumper: Gosh. That's awful.

Flower: Gee whiz.

Bambi: Terrible!

Friend Owl: And that ain't all. It can happen to anybody. So you'd better be careful.

[points at Bambi]

Friend Owl: It could happen to you...

[points at Thumper]

Friend Owl: ...and you, and...

[Flower looks at Owl shyly]

Friend Owl: Yes, it could even happen to you!

Thumper: Well, it's not gonna happen to me.

Bambi: Me neither.

Flower: Me neither.

Thumper: "Eating greens is a special treat, It makes long ears and great big feet. But it sure is awful stuff to eat." I made that last part up myself.

Thumper: He doesn't walk very good, does he?

Mrs. Rabbit: Thumper!

Thumper: Yes, mama?

Mrs. Rabbit: What did your father tell you this morning?

Thumper: If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all.

Thumper: I'm thumpin'! That's why they call me Thumper!

[we hear an echo of "They call me Thumper!" from inside the log]

Thumper: Hiya, Bambi! Watch what I can do!

[jumps into the frozen pond and slides on the ice]

Thumper: Come on, it's all right. Look.

[thumps on ice]

Thumper: The water's stiff.

Thumper: Whatcha gonna call 'im?

Bambi's Mother: Well, I think I'll call him Bambi.

Thumper: Bambi... Yep, I guess that'll do all right.

[first lines]

Thumper: Wake up, wake up!

Thumper: [after hearing his sisters] Aww, for crying out loud!

Thumper: Being brave is easy.

Bambi: It is?

Thumper: Sure, watch this. Argh!

Flower: I think he's got a hairball.

Thumper: No, silly. I'm being brave. All you got to do is be scarier than whatever's scaring you.

Thumper: I'm a mountain lion! Roar!

Bambi: I'm a... I'm a bear! Maaa!

Flower: I'm a turtle. Rrrr!

[pause]

Flower: What? Turtles are so scary.

Thumper: [about his sisters] You know, they're okay for sisters. It's just too bad they're girls.

Faline: [clearly offended] Hey!

Thumper: Oops

Thumper: [to Bambi] If you're scared, just be scarier than whatever's scaring you!

Thumper: Oh, come on! You jumped farther than this yesterday!

Bambi: [Nervous] I... don't know...

Thumper: [Tauntingly] You're not afraaaiid, are ya?

[Bambi gets scared]

Thumper: [sing-song voice] You're too afraaaiid! You cannot juuuump! Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyyyah-nyah! Nyah-nyah, nyaaaahhh!

[Bambi runs back and does a big jump]

Thumper: [Amazed] You did it!

Bambi: Oh! I gotta go! My dad's waiting for me!

Additional Voices: Bye, Bambi.

Thumper: Aww, Bambi, you never have time for us anymore.

Faline: Yeah. Isn't it wonderful?

Thumper: Clobber him, Bambi!

Thumper's Mother: What did your father tell you?

Thumper: 'Bout What?

Thumper's Mother: About playing with your sisters.

Thumper: Oh that 1. A family that stays together, plays togther, even if it means taking your dumb sisters.

Thumper: Maybe there's a reason you repressed the day some pervert had you in your tighty-whities.

[glances at Evan's journals]

Thumper: I'd think twice about what you're doing. You could wake up a lot more fucked up than you are now.

Evan: More fucked up than I already am? You think you know me? *I* don't know me!

Evan: Hey Thumper, you got the time?

Thumper: Whatsa matter, you lost your Rolex? Fuck you frat-boy!
