Mystery Men (1999)

Ricky Jay: Vic Weems

Quotes 

• Vic Weems : I think, right now, we should focus on the positive. Tonight was good.

  Capt. Amazing : Yeah? You think so? Cause I was worried it was, um, I don't know... PATHETIC! "Amazing triumphs at a nursing home"? That's great copy, Vic!

  Vic Weems : Look, I'm a publicist, not a magician. You want big news, you have to have big fights. A superhero needs a supervillain - and thanks to you, we've got none left.

  Capt. Amazing : Then get... the Death Man!

  Vic Weems : Death Man is dead.

  Capt. Amazing : Okay... Father Doom!

  Vic Weems : Life without parole. Apocalypto's doing fifty years. Armagezzmo's in exile. Baron von Chaos got the chair...

  Capt. Amazing : Really?

  Vic Weems : Casanova Frankenstein is locked up in a nut-house.

  Capt. Amazing : Casanova Frankenstein - now there was a supervillain! You know, he just... he's got those eyes, you know? I can't do it, but... and that voice! Such pure evil! The battles we used to have - extraordinary!

  Vic Weems : "Used to." That's the problem, Captain. "Used to."
