- Jack Horner: Do these characters have a name?
- Dirk: The guy's name is Brock Landers.
- Reed Rothchild: And his partner is Chest Rockwell.
- Jack Horner: Those are some great names.
- Jack Horner: Where are you going?
- Becky Barnett: I gotta go wash my vagina.
- Jack Horner: How long will you be?
- Becky Barnett: Two seconds. You want it clean, don't you?
- Floyd Gondolli: The Colonel's got the money. You've got the talent, Jack. I've got the connection to the equipment and the mail order distribution, not to mention those kids out-there, who are hot-fuck-action to the max, Jack. This here's the future. Videotape tells the truth.
- Jack Horner: Wait a minute. You come into my house, my party, to tell me about the future? That the future is tape, videotape, and not film? And it's amateurs and not professionals? I'm a filmmaker, that's why I will *never* make a movie on videotape.
- Eddie Adams: I was thinkin' about what the Colonel was sayin' about my name.
- Jack Horner: Uh-huh.
- Eddie Adams: I was just wonderin' if you had any ideas.
- Jack Horner: I had some thoughts on it, yeah. What about you? What do you think?
- Eddie Adams: Well, my idea was, y'know, I just want a name, I want it so it could cut glass, y'know, like razor sharp.
- Jack Horner: Razor sharp, right.
- Eddie Adams: Yeah. Well, when I close my eyes, I see this thing. It's like this big sign. And the name is in like bright blue neon lights with like purple outline. And this name is just so bright and so sharp that the sign - it just blows up because the name is so just. powerful. - - It says: "Dirk Diggler."
- Jack Horner: I think - I think heaven has sent you here - Dirk Diggler. I think the angels have blessed us all because of you.
- Dirk: Are you gonna take your skates off?
- Rollergirl: I don't take my skates off. And don't fuckin' come in me.
- Dirk: Okay.
- Jack Horner: Aim it at her tits.
- Little Bill: [while shooting a scene, Dirk ejaculated inside Amber] We missed the cum shot. He came inside her. Maybe we could go to stock footage, or...
- Jack Horner: Are you crazy? It won't match!
- Dirk: Jack? I can do it again if you need a closeup.
- Jack Horner: Don't just ram it in there like that, this is not a hole in the wall pal, it's Rollergirl.
- Jack Horner: So what I'm trying to tell you, Eddie, is that it takes a *lot* of good old American *green* stuff to make one of these things, you know what I mean?
- [sighs]
- Jack Horner: I mean, you know, you got your camera, you got your film, you got your lights, you got your sound, you got your lab costs, you got the developing, you got your syncing, you got your editing. Before you turn around, you've spent maybe twenty, twenty-five... thirty thousand dollars on a movie.
- Eddie Adams: [awed] Now that's a lot of money.
- Jack Horner: You bet your ass it is.
- [nods]
- Jack Horner: But if you make a good one, there's practically no end to how much money you could make.
- Jack Horner: I don't wanna make a film where they show up, they sit down and jack off, and they get up and they get out before the story ends. It is my dream, it is my goal, it is my idea, to make a film that the story just sucks them in and when they spurt out that joy juice, they just gotta sit in it. They can't move until they find out how the story ends. You know, I wanna make a film like that.
- Jack Horner: [re his new inordinately well-built stud] I got a feeling that behind those jeans is something wonderful just waiting to get out.
- [the Colonel James is in jail after being arrested for cocaine possession and attempted statutory rape]
- Colonel James: They found something else.
- Jack Horner: What?
- Colonel James: Well... it's just... they're so cute when they're so young like that...
- Jack Horner: Ah, Jesus...
- Dirk: [standing in the kitchen at work with Jack] So, you want five or ten?
- Jack Horner: What?
- Dirk: Well, if you just wanna see me jack off, it's ten. But if you just wanna look at it, it's only five.
- Dirk: Don't you fucking call me a kid!
- Jack Horner: What?
- Dirk: What the fuck, if you wanna see me kick some ass, I know fucking karate! You wanna fuck with me?
- Jack Horner: [can't accept that video is replacing 35mm film] You know, if it looks like shit... and it sounds like shit, then it must be *shit!*
- Floyd Gondolli: You're holding on too tight, Jack. It doesn't have to look good.
- [shakes his head]
- Floyd Gondolli: Film is just too damn expensive. And the theaters are already converting to video projectors.
- Dirk: Blocking an idea or a movement, you know. Jack will put the final touches together for what the camera needs for editing and stuff, but, um, you know, he allows me to block my own sex scenes, and, you know, give me the freedom to develop the character and stuff like that. God, I don't know any other, you know, director who would let an actor, you know, do that. You know?
- Jack Horner: I don't allow him to block his own sex scenes.
