Quotes 

  • Mayor Shelbourne : Hey, Flint. It's been nice to beet you!

    Flint Lockwood : That's a radish!

  • Flint Lockwood : The machine emits microwave radiation to mutate the water molecules. The more we ask it to make, the more clouds it takes in, the more radiation it emits, the more the food molecules could overmutate. I think that's what's making the food bigger.

    Mayor Shelbourne : Here's what I heard: Blah, blah, blah, science, science, science... Bigger! And bigger is better. Everyone's gonna love these new portion sizes.

    [Stuffs whole giant hot dog in his mouth] 

    Mayor Shelbourne : I know I do.

    [Flint looks over to the button, unsure] 

    Flint Lockwood : My dad thinks I should turn it off...

    Mayor Shelbourne : Geniuses like us are never understood by their fathers, Flint.

    Flint Lockwood : But what if things go...

    Mayor Shelbourne : Who needs the approval of one family member when you can have it from millions of acquaintances? Not to mention that little cutlet Sam Sparks... and me? I've always felt you were like a son to me, Flint. And I'm going to be so proud of you tomorrow when you cut that ribbon, save the town, and prove to everybody what a great inventor you are. So here's the cheese: You can keep it going, get everything you've ever wanted, and be the great man I know you can be. Or, you can turn it off, ruin everything, and no one will ever like you. It's your choice... choice... choice...

    [the word "choice" continues to echo, until it's revealed that the Mayor is whispering it repeatedly to Flint] 

  • Mayor Shelbourne : A pizza stuffed inside a turkey, the whole thing deep-fried and dipped in chocolate.

  • Flint Lockwood : Food synthesis, go.

    [Flint hooks the jumper cables up to the FLDSMDFR] 

    Earl Devereaux : My chest hairs are tingling, something's wrong!

    [Earl leaps into action] 

    Mayor Shelbourne : Well, here it is, the attraction the whole world has been waiting for: Sardine Land!

    [Brent cuts the ribbon with the ceremonial pair of golden scissors] 

    Mayor Shelbourne : With rides and exhibits, and featuring Shamo, the world's largest sardine... and his flaming hoop of glory! Those of you in the splash zone, look out.

  • Mayor Shelbourne : [Last lines]  This was not well thought out.
