Cantr II Discussion Forum

Wesley: I'm still stuck back at, "Why on earth are we here?"
Fred: What, because we're crusaders against evil and now the law firm that represents most of the evil in the world has given us its LA branch to run however we want, probably in an attempt to corrupt, divide, or destroy us, and we all said yes in, like, 3 minutes?
Wesley: You're run-on sentences have got a lot less pointless
Fred: Oh, that's so sweet. And a tad condescending.

Angel: (into speaker phone) Uh... can I get a cup of coffee or something?
Phone menu voice: You have reached Ritual Sacrifice. For goats press one, or say "goats."
(moments later, Angel presses another button)
Phone menu voice: To sacrifice a loved one or pet, press the pound key.

Lindsey: Who is this? Who is this? I came to fight the vampire with a soul. Guess you shouldn't have sold it, huh? Look at you, from champion to pathetic corporate puppet in just a few months. You used to have fire in your heart. Now all you got in there is that big honkin' sword. How does that feel, champ?
Angel: Could be worse...if it had been made out of wood, you dumbass.

(from season 5)

Spike: Look, if cavemen and astronauts got into a fight, who would win?
Wesley: Ah. You've been yelling at each other for 40 minutes about this. (pauses) Do the astronauts have weapons.
Angel and Spike: No.

Angel: Wes, it wasn't just breakfast. You know, it was, uh...breakfast. I mean, here we had this very good, very platonic thing going on, and then all of a sudden, out of the blue--
Wesley: Are you blind? Angel, there are things called signals. Odorless, yes. Invisible, certainly. But unmistakable, like the ones she's been casting your way for months.
Angel: No. I would have noticed--
Wesley: This isn't just from me. This comes from people who know. This comes from the ladies.
Angel: The ladies?
Wesley: Fred, Harmony...the girls in transcription. As Harmony put it, "While else would a chick who's coming to spend 3 nights in a jail cell dress like it's her first date?"
Angel: Oh, God. The ladies are right.


Spike: Never much cared for you, Liam, even when we were evil.
Angel: Cared for you less.
Spike: Fine.
Angel: Good. (they sit in silence) There was one thing about you...
Spike: Really?
Angel: Yeah, I never told anyone about this, but I--I liked your poems.
Spike: You like Barry Manilow.

Spike: You're right. I do deserve to go to Hell. But not today. (he punches Pavayne)
Pavayne: You dare!
Spike: Quite a bit, mate. Reality bends to desire. That was it, right? That's why I could touch Fred, write your name in the glass. All I had to do was want it bad enough. (his clothes rematerialize) And guess what I want to do now, you prissy son of a bitch!

Can we stop calling you Angelus and just start calling you fanboy?

what can i say, i love my shows...

Wesley: "I've been accused of a great many things in my time, but paranoid has never been one of them. Unless people have been saying it behind my back."

Angel: "It's just, you know, the whole visibility issue not to mention the whole hat-head thing, and I mean, when you really think about it how come I have to wear the lady's helmet?"
Wesley: "Stop being such a wanker and put it on."

Cordelia "Stop moving."
Angel "I'm not."
Cordelia "Well then stop breathing."
Angel "I can't breathe."
Cordelia "Then... stop flexing your manly boob muscles or whatever."

Cordelia "We were just discussing whether or not we should offer to pay Gunn."
Angel "No you weren't."
Wesley "Well, our discussions tend to go about three minutes, then it's strictly name calling and hair pulling."


Angel "It was Darla. She's back, and she's human now, but I know her scent."
Wesley "Angel, you can't just sniff a person and-"
Angel "You had sex last night, with a bleached blonde."
Wesley "Good lord! How-"
Cordelia "That's unbelievable. I didn't think you ever had sex."

Darla, (to Angel) "You were a legend. Nobody could keep up with you. Not even me. You don't learn that kind of darkness."

WESLEY: That's a pretty powerful position for a young woman.

EVE: *smiles sweetly* How exactly can you be sure I'm either of those things?




I rather liked her after that line....

Illyria: You are the protector of these creatures?
Angel: Yes.
Illyria: You'd fight for their lives?
Angel: Yes.
Illyria: (to Knox) Even this one?
Knox: Is that an issue? Is my life in peril, boss? King?

-"Shells"

From "1943/Why we Fight"

Spike: Of all the bloody faces I expected to see down here.
Angel: You're a nazi.
Spike: What? Oh. No. I just ate one.


Nostroyev: Angelus. Used to be quite the terror back in the day. Haven't heard much of you lately, though.
Angel: Haven't heard much of you, ever.
Nostroyev: Nostroyev! Scourge of Siberia and butcher of Alexander Palace.
Angel: Sorry.
Nostroyev: I was Rasputin's lover!

Spike: (re: Wesley) We got a history, him and me.
Fred: What?
Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy, when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call, battle of wills...and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole--
Fred: My God...you're so full of crap.
Spike: Yeah. OK.

Spike: I had a wee spat with a werewolf myself once. Fought for over an hour. Brutal, vicious. Almost lost my--
Fred: Angel killed him with a pen.


Nina: Don't tell me what you know. You didn't wake up and find out you're a...monster. You don't know anything.
Angel: (awkwardly) I'm not a werewolf like you, but I--I know what it's like. I'm a monster, too.
Nina: So...what? You're like a Frankenstein?
Angel: (defensively) What? No! I'm--I'm a vampire.

"unleashed"

Angel: (to Connor) So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish, went mad with hunger, hallucinated a whole bunch.

Angel: What you did to me was unbelievable Connor. But then, I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend once for 100 years, so a few months under the ocean, it actually gave me perspective. Kind of an M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think, about us, about the world. Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be. It’s harsh and cruel. That’s why there’s us. Champions. It doesn’t matter where we come from, what we’ve done or suffered, or even if we make a difference. We live as though the world were as it should be, to show it what it can be. You’re not a part of that yet. I hope you will be. I love you, Connor. Now get out of my house.

"deep down"

I've heard told on www.fireflyfans.net and the Official Firefly Forum that Angel might not get axed after all and if it does then another network might pick it up. Don't know if you heard that yet but thought you should know.

Oh, yeah, a huge spoiler was leaked to www.browncoats.com about the Firefly Movie. Universal isn't happy about this but I saw the leak the Firefly movie looks like it might be pretty good but the bad part is that Shepard Book (played by Ron Glass) might not be in the movie!

yeah, I have been keeping track of all the lastest Angel News

I heard that the WB is re-thinking about not staking angel because of the overwelhming response from the fans and the media as well as some of their own affilliates (they have been posting save angel links on their sites)

Angel won E! Onlines "Save One Show Poll" with 85% of the votes going in favor of Angel. Over 400,000 people voted on that! Also thanks to all of the campiagns for saving Angel (some raised up to 17,000 in efferts to save angel), the save angel blood drives and food drives and all the flowers being sent to the WB... the network as been heard to be in talks with Mutant Enemy about no bringing angel back for a 6th season

Fred: (to Gunn and Angel) I’m still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and being someone’s bitch.

Angel: (re: the plan) I’m really strong if that helps.

Fred: (softly to herself while breaking & entering) Please let my cell mate be gentle.

Lilah: Look, Angel. I know you’ve been out of the loop for a while, but I’m still evil. I don’t do errands unless they’re evil errands.

Angel: Get down! Now! Get low!
Gwen: Ow! You jackass. You get low.
Angel: I don’t need to. I don’t breathe.
Gwen: Gee, must be a real turn-on for the girlfriend.


-"Ground State"

Cordelia: Look, this is really urgent. I know Lorne pays you to cast this spell. What will it take for you to lift it?
Transuding Sisters: (in sequence) This is not a debt you can pay.
Cordelia: (insulted) You don't know that. My credit has been very good this last year.
Transuding Sisters: (in sequence) Only Angel is equipped to make good on this debt.
Cordelia: Angel. (makes raspberry noise) I don't know. You know, for a guy who's a couple of centuries old, not very big with the wise investing. (pause, then understanding) And when you say "equipped", that isn't what you mean, is it?
Transuding Sisters: (together) Mmm Angel.
Cordelia: Got it. And eww.
