On the Fence (1993)

DeJuan Guy: Ellis

Quotes 

• Cory Matthews : Say you could pick any superhero to be your dad. Who would you choose?

  Ellis : Batman, no question. Live in a cool cave, borrow the Batmobile.

  Shawn Hunter : He lets Robin hang out with him and play with all his stuff. And Robin's not even his real kid. He's his ward.

  Ellis : How do you get to be a ward?

  Cory Matthews : Batman? Is he faster than a speeding bullet? I don't think so. Is he more powerful than a locomotive?

  [wiggles his finger] 

  Cory Matthews : Uh-uh. I'd want Superman.

  Shawn Hunter : Sees through walls. You'd never get away with anything.

  Ellis : Because I'd make somebody a very cool ward.

  Cory Matthews : I'd like to have Superman for a dad.

• Cory Matthews : You kids and your water wars. I'd love to join you, but I'm having way too much fun here.

  Shawn Hunter : You're bailing on the water war?

  Ellis : To paint a fence?

  Cory Matthews : You say paint a fence, I say par-ty. And by the way, even if you wanted to, I wouldn't cut you in on this action.

  Shawn Hunter : Why not? I thought we were friends.

  Ellis : Yeah, how come you're cutting us out?

  Stuart Minkus : People, people, am I the only one who read the summer reading list?

  [pauses when nobody answers] 

  Stuart Minkus : Tom Sawyer?

  [pauses again] 

  Stuart Minkus : He's sucking you in to do the work for him.

  [Ellis points his water gun at Cory] 

  Cory Matthews : [referring to Minkus' yellow Paddington Bear rainsuit]  Guys, who are you gonna listen to, me or the banana?

  Shawn Hunter : Well, let's see. The banana says play. You say work. We're gonna hang with the big yellow guy.
