Quotes

 * Mr. Linarcos: I did not suggest full ahead, Captain. As the new owner's representative on this ship, I ordered it!

Captain Harrison: Damn it man, the Poseidon is too fine a lady to be rushed to the junkyard on her last voyage!

Mr. Linarcos: We're already three days behind schedule! And it's costing my consortium thousands of dollars every day to maintain a wrecking crew. I demand we dock Monday night!

Captain Harrison: And I can't afford to gamble with the lives of my passengers!

Mr. Linarcos: Your business is to deliver this ship, where we want it, WHEN we want it!

Captain Harrison: Running an unstable ship at full ahead is dangerous!

Mr. Linarcos: I'm sure...

Captain Harrison: Especially one as old as this! You know this could lead to destruction.

Mr. Linarcos: I'm sure I don't have to remind you of my legal right to have you relieved of command. Three other officers aboard this ship have their Master's License. Now, order Full Ahead!
 * Jerry: So that's the cat this ship is named after, huh?

Droopy: That's right, Jerry. The Greek God Poseidon. God of the oceans. God of storms, tempests, earthquakes and other weathers. God of horses. Poseidon was protector of seafarers, and of many Hellenic cities and colonies. In Homer's Iliad, Poseidon supports the Greeks against the Trojans during the Trojan War. In the Odyssey, during the sea-voyage from Troy back home to Ithaca, the Greek hero Odysseus provoked Poseidon's fury by blinding his son Polyphemus the Cyclops, resulting in Poseidon punishing him with storms, the complete loss of his ship and companions, and a ten-year delay. Believed to dwell on Atlantis. He is also called Neptune by the Romans.
 * Captain Harrison: [discussing the approching wave] It seems to be piling up in those shallows... By the way, happy New Year.

First Officer Larsen: Thank you, sir. Same to you.
 * Linda Rogo: I saw a young officer on deck the other day, and he looked DAMN familiar... even with his clothes on.

Mike Rogo: So... he recognized ya, so?

Linda Rogo: So doesn't that bother you?

Mike Rogo: If it bothered me, I wouldn'ta married ya.

Linda Rogo: Well first you arrested me six times.

Mike Rogo: Well I had to figure out some way to keep you off the streets... until you'd marry me.

Droopy: HMMM.
 * Captain Harrison: [to Mr. Linarcos] You irresponsible, arrogant bitch.
 * Linda Rogo: Jesus Christ! What the hell happened?

Elena: HMMM. It appears the 90 foot wave which went from Crete near Greece capsized us. We're upside down.

Tom: We're upside down? And the ship's gonna sink?

(he screams and runs about)

Elena: Tom.

(she slaps him)

Elena: CALM DOWN!

Tom: But I want to get out.

Reverand Frank Scott; I know. But panicking would make things worse.
 * Robin Shelby: Sis? Susan!

Susan Shelby: Robin! Reverend Scott!

[Everyone looks up and sees Susan clinging to the underside of a table]

Susan Shelby: [frightened] Can you help me?

Robin Shelby: How the heck did you get up there, sis?

Susan Shelby: That's a stupid question!

Linda Rogo: Duh.
 * Reverand Frank Scott: Come with us.

Butch: Ignore this madman. He'd get us all destroyed.

Purser: For God's sake, Reverend, what you're doing is suicide!

Reverend Frank Scott: We're cut off from the rest of the world. They can't get to us. Maybe we can get to them. You've said enough, now get out of the way.

Purser: Pray for us, but don't do this! Climbing to another deck will kill you all!

Reverend Frank Scott: And sitting on our butts is not going to help us either. Maybe by climbing out of here, we can save ourselves. If you've got any sense, you'll come along with us.
 * Spike: [Rogo has refused to help move the Christmas tree] Look here... you arrogant, cowardly twit. You get your ass down here with us, mister, right away or I might need to force you to do so.

Mike Rogo: Hey... You oughta watch your language, Dog! You sound like you come from the slum, or somethin'!

Linda Rogo: For God's sake, go help him!
 * Reverend Frank Scott: Through the kitchens and go deeper and deeper in the ship till we reach the hull. That way!

Mike Rogo: And you just kick out the botton and we swim ashore, huh?

Linda Rogo: Or maybe you could yell 'This is the police' and it'll open right up!

Mike Rogo: Enough with your wisecracks, eh.

Jerry: My.

Tom: And I thought you had a big mouth, Jerry.
 * Nonnie Parry: [frightened] I can't swim.

James Martin: You can't?

Nonnie Parry: No... not a stroke.
 * James Martin: What'll I tell the others?

Mike Rogo: Tell 'em to break out their hymnals and start singing "Nearer My God To Thee" !
 * Tom: Lions, tigers and bears. Oh, my. And crocs too!

Jerry: Just a minute. Which sorta madman put lions, tigers, bears, crocs, and snakes!!!!!

Reverand Scott: The one who ignored the captain's warning.
 * Mike Rogo: Wait a minute! This is no goddamn engine room!

Linda Rogo: Then where the Hell are we?

Reverend Frank Scott: There was a corridor leading to the engine room.

Mr. Manny Rosen: But now it's underwater.

Reverend Frank Scott: All right. We'll swim through it. Give me the rope.

Tom: You've gotta be kidding! There's no way I'd swim in... especially if sharks roam.

Reverend Frank Scott: It's in the clear. It's one deck up. It's above us. We'll swim through the bulkhead, down a short corridor and up a companionway. It can't be more than thirty five feet at the most.

Linda Rogo: Oh, is that all!

Reverend Frank Scott: We can do it. Trust me, we can do it!
 * Robin Shelby: I once helped my dad drag a 600 pound marlin near Hawaii.
 * Robin Shelby: I'm sorry Mrs. Rosen, I didn't mean it to sound like that.

Mrs. Belle Rosen: What, I miss something?

Robin Shelby: When I said I helped my dad drag in a 600 pound marlin. I didn't mean that I thought you weighed that much.

Mrs. Belle Rosen: All that's going on and THAT'S what you're worried about?

Robin Shelby: Sure, what else?

Mrs. Belle Rosen: You're a good boy.

Robin Shelby: Tell my sister.
 * Tom: I gotta get out off here. The ocean rising. Steam. Fire. And some bloodthirsty preds. A croc bit me. Lions, tigers and bears mauled me. I'M A SINGER CELEBRITY! GET ME OUT OF HERE!
 * Reverend Frank Scott: Lets make a toast.

Spike: Great. What will we drink to?

Reverend Frank Scott: To Love.

Linda Rogo: Here here. To love. To Love. To Love, dummy!

Mike Rogo: Oh.
 * Mrs. Belle Rosen: You see, swimming through corridors and up and down stairwells I'm the only one trained to do things like that.

Linda Rogo: Will you shut up?
 * Mike Rogo: You! Preacher! Murderer! I started to believe in your promises, that we had a chance. What chance? You took from me the only thing I ever loved in the whole world, my Linda.

Droopy: Revenge poisons the soul. Act on revenge and you become a murderer!
 * Linda Rogo: Just shoot me Mike. For Christ's sake just shoot me!
 * Mr. Manny Rosen: Something must have happened to them. I tell you. Belle would have signalled!

Mike Rogo: Okay. That does it. I'm going through to find out what's happened.

Linda Rogo: Oh no you're not! You'll drown too!

Mr. Manny Rosen: Let me go, Mr Rogo. It's my wife!

Linda Rogo: Let him go, Mike!

Mike Rogo: I'm going through. All of you stay put till I get back.

Linda Rogo: Mike, please!

Mike Rogo: Take it easy, baby. I'll be back.
 * Reverend Frank Scott: So what resolution should we make for the new year? It's to let God know that you have the guts and the will to do it alone. Resolve to fight for yourselves, and for others, for those you love. And that part of God within you will be fighting with you all the way.
 * [Steam covers the escape route. Looking up]

Reverend Frank Scott: What more do you want of us? We've come all this way, no thanks to you. We did it on our own, no help from you.

[moves closer to steam valve]

Reverend Frank Scott: We did ask you to fight for us but damn it, don't fight against us! Leave us alone! How many more sacrifices? How much more blood? How much must die for mankind's greed and arrogance?

[jumps to steam valve. Steam burns his hands as he hangs there]

Reverend Frank Scott: How many more lives?

[Starts turning valve]

Reverend Frank Scott: Belle wasn't enough. Acres wasn't. Now this girl! You want another life? Then take me!

[Steam stops. Turns on valve to face survivors]

Reverend Frank Scott: You can make it. Keep going. Rogo! Get them through.

[falls into flaming water below]

Jerry: SCOTT! NOOOOO!
