The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2005)

Share this quote on facebook Sharkboy was not always half shark, half boy. He was a marine biologist, or, at least, in training. His father studied great white sharks and called his son "Sharkboy" because of how much he loved to care for the sharks. He made them sushi and had given them all names. Goodmilk, Peggy, Eggbat, and Crackett. But one day, an incredible, mysterious storm appeared. It swept away the entire laboratory. Thanks to their life rafts, Sharkboy and his father survived. But they survived on different sides of the wreckage, each floating off in a different direction. Sharkboy was completely alone. Almost completely. But one of the sharks recognized him. They took Sharkboy to their cave home, where he'd be safe and dry. His new family were sharks. Hundreds of sharks. The sharks raised him as one of their own, training him in the ways of the shark. To live by instinct and instinct alone. Eventually he grew gills, and sharp talons for claws. His teeth sharpened themselves to a point. He grew fins. all sorts of fins. But that was years ago. I first met Sharkboy while fishing on the dock this summer. He seemed lost. So I snuck him home. when my parents were too busy to notice. I kept him fed and in water. He had been traveling the universe in search of his father. He told me of his latest adventures on a planet so cool it makes you drool. He said I too could go to Planet Drool someday. Then one night I was visited by a glowing light. An amazing girl with purple flames for hair and skin of molten lava rock appeared. I called her Lavagirl. She smiled at me, for that seemed to be her name. She told me she needed Sharkboy to return to Planet Drool with her, for a great crisis was developing. She asked if I could go with them. I told her, "I have school tomorrow." She gave me a sad look and flamed away, taking Sharkboy with her. I haven't seen Sharkboy or Lavagirl since then. And that's what I did this summer.

Share this quote on facebook My book of dreams! That's why everything's so messed up! He's changing it!

Share this quote on facebook The following story is true. It might have started as a dream, but as we saw yesterday, when we make our dreams a reality, reality becomes a dream. Sharkboy lives his dream as King of the Ocean. Where he cares for all its creatures. He searches for his father's submarine, where there is no light, except in one place where light shines almost as bright as the sun. It's where Lavagirl lives her dream as queen of Earth's volcanoes that boil at the bottom of the sea. A force of life for all living things. Sharkboy and Lavagirl don't visit me anymore. But I can visit them in my dreams. So dream a better dream, then work to make it real.

Mr. Electricidad: Okay, kids, who's next? Remember, there are no dumb ideas.
Linus: Maybe we can freeze his circuits.
Mr. Electricidad: That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard. We're in the middle of Texas in August! Next idea. Please, anyone but Linus.

Share this quote on facebook Sharkboy: [while singing a lullaby to Max] Close your eyes, shut your mouth, dream a dream and get us out.
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
Hit the hay, fast asleep, dream a dream, you little bleep.
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
Lavagirl: It's working! Keep it up, Sharkboy.
Sharkboy: [singing while dancing hip-hop style] Just relax, lay about, or my fist will put you out.
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
Take your time, but beware, there's darkness in the air. / Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
Lavagirl: Dream about me next, Max. I need to know who I am. Not just destruction or a simple flame. Dream of me as something good. [sees Darkness in the sky]
Sharkboy: [singing] Don't despair, step right up. Glass of water? Here's a cup.
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
Lavagirl: He's having a nightmare! Wake up, Max! Wake up! Stop that racket, Sharkboy. You're giving him nightmares! [stands up] Sorry, Max. [Her lava burns Max's rear.]
Max: [screams in pain and wakes up] Ow! Ohh! What was that for?!
Lavagirl: You're nightmare was about me, wasn't it?
Max: I don't remember. [smiles] But I did dream about one thing.
Sharkboy: [points up in alarm] Plughounds!

Share this quote on facebook Sharkboy: Max! Get down here!
[Sharkboy and Lavagirl are having a hard time controlling the Train of Thought.]
Max: What's wrong?
Sharkboy: We can't control it!
Max: All you have to do is keep it track.
Sharkboy: How can you keep it on track if there is no track?
[Max looks out the windshield]
Max: [shocked] Uh-oh.
Sharkboy: Looks like another dream gone bad.
Lavagirl: [nervously] What do we do?
Sharkboy: [flatly calm] Yell… scream…?
[Max, Sharkboy and Lavagirl scream in terror]
Lavagirl: [opens the front door] Jump. It'll be alright.
[Lavagirl, Sharkboy and Max jump out, one by one, then the Train of Thought crashes into ice cream, and the back falls off]
Max: What does it mean when your Train of Thought... wrecks?
Sharkboy: Well... [pats Max's shoulder]...Can't be good, buddy.
Lavagirl: How much do we have, Sharkboy?
Sharkboy: [checks his shark radar] 20 minutes. [steps in something, and takes a taste]
Lavagirl: [disgusted] Ew! Stick to rotten fish, please.
Sharkboy: [spits it out in disgust] Chocolate! I stepped in chocolate!
[Max eats the chocolate]
Lavagirl: [happily] We're here. [the camera zooms out to reveal where they are] The Land of Milk and Cookies.
Sharkboy: [taking a short dive on a cookie] Whoo-hoo! Yeah! [puts his hand in the milk] The milk is warm. [shake his hand] He'll be out in no time.
Lavagirl: [to Max] Lay down. Here's a marshmallow pillow.
Sharkboy: How 'bout dreaming us into the Dream Lair?
Max: [wakes up uncomfortably] The ground is thumping too much.
Sharkboy: My highly trained ears hear it, too. [whispers] Boom, boom, boom!
Lavagirl: Let me hear it.
Sharkboy: [warningly] I wouldn't. [Lavagirl lays her head down on the marshmallow, and it turns burnt. Lavagirl angrily looks at Sharkboy, who looks away as if saying, "I warned ya."] Hothead.
Lavagirl: When you dreamt up these giant cookies, who did you expect to be able to eat them?
Max: I really didn't think about it.
Lavagirl: 'Cause if you dream giant cookies, something has to be created to consume giant cookies.
[Cookie giants, who look like Max's parents, appear from behind mountains.]
Sharkboy: Cookie giants!

Mr. Electric: [chuckles sarcastically and flexes his muscles.] And who are you to believe that you can defeat me now?
Sharkboy: No one special. Just... king of the ocean. [Sharks cut ice that Mr. Electric is on, he falls in the water, and the sharks bite him.] Shark frenzy. [walks away]

Lavagirl: [appearing out of nowhere] Max, I am light. Thank you.
Max: You were always that. It had nothing to do with me.
Lavagirl: But now I know. So, thank you.
Sharkboy: [appears behind Lavagirl] Okay. So, she's a light. Big deal. The real news is... what I am.
Lavagirl: [rhetorically] Annoying?
Sharkboy: [smugly] King of the Ocean.
Lavagirl: Thanks for saving me. [kisses Sharkboy on the cheek and he sizzles]
Sharkboy: [smiling a little painfully; embarrassed] Ouch.

Share this quote on facebook Max: [to Linus] Give me back my journal!
Mr. Electricidad: Class has begun, everyone in your seats.
Max: Linus took my journal!
Linus: I did not!
Mr. Electricidad: Minus! I mean, Linus. You get a minus for misconduct. Give Max back his journal. [Linus does, Max snatches it from him.] One more time, Linus, and we'll change your name to Minus.
Max: [looks at his pages marked by Linus, then angrily stands up] He ruined my dream journal!
Linus: [defensively] I did not! Mr. Electric, send him to the principal's office and have him expelled!
[Max angrily throws his dream journal at Linus and it hits him in the head]
Mr. Electricidad: [angrily] You're in my class, not the other way around! I know everything and you... know nothing. [Points his finger at the clock.] At the end of class, both of you report to the principal's office... with your parents!

Mr. Electricidad: Max, your report, please.
[Max goes in front of the class and he waves at Marissa, who smiles and waves back.]
Max: The following story is true. It might have started as a dream, but as we saw yesterday, when we make our dreams a reality, reality becomes a dream. Sharkboy lives his dream as King of the Ocean. where he cares for all its creatures, He searches for his father's submarine. where there is no light, except in one place where light shines almost as bright as the sun.

[Sharkboy puts his arm around Lavagirl, but burns himself, so Sharkboy and Lavagirl touch each other's fingers.] But I can visit them in my dreams. So dream a better dream, then work to make it real.
Tobor: [awakes] Yes?
