Finding Dory movie quotes bring the beloved story which began in the 2003 animated film Finding Nemo back to theaters for another installment. The Disney Pixar film was directed by Andrew Stanton using a screenplay he co-wrote with Victoria Strouse. Finding Dory opened in theaters on June 8, 2016.
In Finding Dory, Pacific blue regal tang fish Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres) is lost in the sea and, due to her short term memory issues, has little idea how to get back home to reunite with her parents. She does, however, recognize old friends Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) and Nemo (voiced by Hayden Rolence), a father and son clownfish team. So when Dory finds Marlin and Nemo, she has hope to make it back home.
But just as soon as they are reunited, Dory is scooped up by humans and taken to the Marine Life Institute. While Dory does meet new and old friends inside the institute, including whale shark Destiny (voiced by Kaitlin Olson), beluga whale Bailey (voiced by Ty Burrell) and octopus Hank (voiced by Ed O'Neill), she is still trapped with little hope of getting back home. Thankfully, Marlin and Nemo spring into action to rescue Dory and help her get back to her parents.
Finding Dory is just one of several top 2016 summer movies along with Central Intelligence, Genius, Now You See Me 2 and Me Before You.
Finding Dory Movie Quotes,
I Lost My Family
Dory: Hello
Inez: Did you hear that?
Stan: What's that? Hear what?
Inez: Stanley, I just, I heard someone say hello.
Stan: Yeah, there's a lot of fish here. Anybody, literally anybody, could have just said hello.
Dory: Hello
Inez: There
Stan: Where am I looking?
Inez: There!
Stan: Oh
Dory: Hi, I'm Dory.
Stan: Yeah, well where are your parents?
...
Dory: Hi, I lost my family.
Sunfish: Where did you see them last?
Dory: I forgot.
...
Dory: I was looking for something and I, okay, totally get it, date night.
Lost in the sea without her parents, Dory tries to get someone to help her get back home. Unfortunately for her, she has no memory of her folks or where home is and no clue how to remember.
Name's Hank
Hank: Name's Hank
Dory: I have to find my family!
Hank: That's a hard one, kid.
Dory meets Hank, a Pacific red octopus who is missing a tentacle. She explains to Hank that she's looking for her family, but Hank doesn't seem to have a lot of interest in helping.
She Should Just Pick Two
Dory: Mom! Dad!
Marlin: She should just pick two and let's go.
Nemo: Dad...
Marlin: What? I'm kidding!
When Dory, Marlin and Nemo come upon a school of Pacific regal blue tang fish, Marlin jokes that Dory should just choose new parents. Having known how scary it can be to be lost, Nemo doesn't find the joke funny at all.
I Remember Something Important
Dory: I remember something important!
Marlin: Something important? What?
Dory: Something about a clam or?
Marlin: No
Dory: No, an oyster
Marlin: No
Dory: Mollusk?
Marlin: No
Dory: Something?
Marlin: No
Dory: I don't know
Marlin: No clam
A light bulb goes on atop Dory's head when she thinks she remembers something that will help her find her family. She can't really remember what that is, however, and her guesses seem to be no help.
Sea Lions
Marlin: Sea lions, they are natural predators. They could pounce at any moment.
Fluke: Don't you worry!
Fluke and Rudder: Off! Off! Off! Off!
Fluke: Don't you worry about one thing!
Marlin tries to warn Nemo about the dangers of sea lions but is rebuked by sea lion Fluke. Considering Fluke is verbally attacking a fellow sea lion and proclaiming his harmlessness at the same time, Marlin may be right.
I Don't Want to Be Touched
Starfish: Incoming!
Hank: I don't want to be touched! Sorry!
Dory: That's okay. Everybody does it. Nothing to be ashamed of.
When visitors to a touching pond come in and take aim at Hank, embarrassingly, he releases dye. Dory responds kindly and reminds him that we all get nervous from time to time.
You Trust Becky?
Nemo: I trust Becky.
Marlin: You trust Becky? Becky is eating a cup!
When Nemo mentions that he trusts Becky, father Marlin questions Nemo's judgement. Considering Becky, a not-so-smart common loon, is eating a cup, perhaps Marlin is right.
A Fish Hospital
Dory: I suffer from short term memory loss. It runs in my family. At least I think it does. Where are they?
Marlin: Dory! There you are!
Dory: Guys!
Marlin: Ahh, look out!
Boater: Look at this!
Marlin: Our friend got taken into whatever this place is.
Fluke: It's a fish hospital.
While Dory can't seem to remember her family, she does recognize friends Marlin and Nemo. But just as soon as she reunites with them, she's scooped up by humans and taken to a fish hospital.
Shushing Us for a Reason
Marlin: I get the feeling they're shushing us for a reason.
Dory: Like something with one big eye, tentacles and a snappy thing?
Marlin: Well that's very specific but something like that.
Marlin and Dory get shushed by nearby sea creatures for a reason Marlin does not know. Dory knows and tries to explain it to him, but he doesn't seem to get the hint.
I Can't Find Them on My Own
Dory: Somewhere out there is my family. I can't find them on my own.
Dory might not have a great memory but she knows that she needs to get back to her family and needs help to do that. This is no easy task, but necessary nonetheless.
