Bank Job: Cup of Tea Dialogue
on Thursday, April 21, 2016The Bank Job (2008) Money movie quote from Eddie Burton character in 2008 – sometimes relaxation and good tea is better than money ruling us like god. The Bank Job (2008) said:
“Look, money may be your god but it ain’t mine, alright? I want a warm bath and a cup of tea” — The Bank Job (2008)
In this quote, Eddie Burton is responding to someone (Terry Leather) who is overly focused on money. The best interpretation is that Burton is saying that while money may be very important to others and essentially act as their god or master, it does not define or control him in the same way. For Burton, simple comforts like taking a warm bath and enjoying a cup of tea have value beyond just financial worth.
He seems to be implying that he does not live solely to pursue wealth and profit, but rather finds fulfillment and relaxation in everyday pleasures. The quote suggests Burton sees himself as less materialistic than his counterpart, finding contentment and meaning in life outside of the almighty dollar.
Jonathan Frakes on Reality of Hollywood
on Wednesday, November 13, 2013Jonathan Frakes Money Quotation saying movie box office success means an attempt at repeating that profit in a sequel or prequel. Jonathan Frakes said:
“I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they’ll make another one” — Jonathan Frakes
In this quote, actor and director Jonathan Frakes seems to be making an observation about the commercial nature of the Hollywood film industry. By saying “if your movie makes money, they’ll make another one”, he appears to be acknowledging that for studios, financial performance largely determines whether a film franchise or series will continue.
His words suggest that box office returns are the primary factor in the decision to greenlight sequels or follow-ups. Frakes’ statement implies that creative or critical success alone may not be enough – movies need to generate profits to convince studios it’s worthwhile investing in further installments. He seems to both understand this reality and feel it’s an inevitable part of the business side of moviemaking.
