Quotes 

• Mongul : A stunning development. The Kryptonian is victorious. Well, what say you?

  Alien : [jeers from the crowd]  Give the bum what he deserves!

  Mongul : It's unanimous, then. The people have spoken. Finish him.

  Superman : I refuse.

  Mongul : You can't refuse. I order you to finish him.

  Superman : No.

  Draaga : Do it. Give me... an honorable death here... on the battlefield.

  Superman : Sorry, but I can't.

  Draaga : How can I live with this shame? Don't make me beg you. Finish me.

  Mongul : Do as he says. This is your last chance.

  Superman : [drones surround him, ready to fire]  No.

  Mongul : Then destroy him!

• Mongul : Today, Draaga meets his greatest foe: the man from Krypton.

  [Superman is lifted up on a platform, freed from his restraints, and handed an ax] 

  Mongul : Are you ready, Kryptonian?

  Superman : I won't fight for your amusement, Mongul.

  [he breaks the ax over his knee] 

  Mongul : A bold move. But let's see how long his idealism lasts on... War World!

• Chancellor : Our nation's food ration is being cut another 15%. And then there are the medical shortages, the power blackouts...

  Mongul : Why do you persist in bothering me with these petty details?

  Chancellor : Petty? But, sire, if this continues, think of the consequences. Why, people are already starting to talk about...

  Mongul : Rebellion? There's not gonna be any rebellion. Not if I can keep giving them fights, good ones. Enough to take their minds off their troubles.

  [two drones drag Superman in] 

  Mongul : What's this?

  Chancellor : The Kryptonian. He tried to escape.

  Mongul : A pity. I was hoping to build him up with some preliminary matches, but now I'll have to make an example of him. Give him to Draaga.

• Mongul : Captain, I want you to hear something.

  [playing the sound of boos from the War World crowd] 

  Mongul : They're expressing their disappointment at the last specimen you brought.

  Captain : Great Mongul, please.

  Mongul : A dozen creatures you've found, and not one of them has been able to last more than two minutes with Draaga.

  Captain : I promise, the next one will be different. He's a powerful Kryptonian, guaranteed to give Draaga the fight of his life.

  Mongul : He'd better.
