Comic Book: The Movie (2004 Video)

Billy West: Leo Matuzik

Quotes 

• Taylor Donohue : Uh, so, basically, you don't know anything about show business or anything. You're like a babe in the woods, is that right?

  Leo Matuzik : Like I said, I just wanna be honest with you - I don't know a lot of all this kind of stuff.

  Donald Swan : And just keep in mind, we don't know anything about sheet-metal work, so, you know, it all balances out.

  Leo Matuzik : You stand there for 30 years of your life grinding the same goddamn holes all day.

• Leo Matuzik : Little do you know, you know? Maybe that's why they say that - because you know very little. You don't know a lot.

• Donald Swan : The Beatles or the Stones? The Munsters or the Addams Family? Betty or Veronica?

  Leo Matuzik : Betty. She was the one.

  Donald Swan : She's the one for you because she's not so complicated, she's not so needy. Some guys like the Veronicas 'cause they love the challenge, and they think she should be spanked.

• Taylor Donohue : This is, also, Leo Matusik.

  Anita Levine : You're the reason I came down here. Little dwarf boy, little strange man, do you even know who your great-grandfather was? Do you even know what you're doing here?

  Leo Matuzik : [confused]  Yeah.

  Anita Levine : Do you know your name?

  Leo Matuzik : Sure.

  Anita Levine : Okay, what day is it?

  [pushes him aside] 

  Anita Levine : Get outta here.

• Ricky : Tell her about her lips. She's got beautiful lips.

  Leo Matuzik : You've got great lips. They're almost like - they look like beautiful... red worms kinda, like, touching each other. You know what I mean?

  Laura Nativo : [smiles innocently]  Is that supposed to be a compliment?

• [Taylor is teaching Leo to act like a movie exec] 

  Taylor Donohue : [hands Leo his cell phone]  It's Ricky.

  Leo Matuzik : [into phone]  Deflect. D-Deflect.

  Taylor Donohue : That's good. Does he feel the moment? Ask him if he feels the moment.

  Leo Matuzik : Do you feel the moment? Deflect, man. I'm deflecting. I'm, uh - I'm in charge. I'm in control. I'm gonna go away and you're gonna feel good about talking to me.

  Taylor Donohue : [takes phone]  Don't spit on my phone. You're good.

• Drunken Party Guest : He's retranslating the Code of Hammurabi from the ancient Persian to the ancient Greek to the ancient Roman to the ancient Gaelic right to English.

  Leo Matuzik : Wow.

  Drunken Party Guest : He wants to know..."the know".

  Leo Matuzik : [nodding]  "The know."

• Leo Matuzik : Knowing my grandfather the way I did - which was I didn't - he'd probably say, "Look, you snooze, you lose." Something like that.

  Army Buddy #2 : [singsong voice]  I don't remember Grandaddy. I was only five.

  [normal voice] 

  Army Buddy #2 : He's a retard. Come on, man. We want our money. Don't give us that crap about a basket of fruit and assorted cheese and four bottles of wine. We don't drink... anymore.

• Leo Matuzik : That is the message. A new Golden Age. Yes! A new Golden Age - Codename: Courage! Liberty Lass! Because... without a new Golden Age, you can't have old Golden Ages. Without a new Manganese Age, you couldn't have an old Manganese Age. Same is true for Strontium, or Mercury, or Tin.
