Magic Mike XXL movie quotes bring the popular male stripping film back for a sequel. Directed by Gregory Jacobs, the comedy-drama was written by Reid Carolyn and Channing Tatum, who also serve as producers. With original film director Steven Soderbergh back for cinematography and editing of the sequel, Magic Mike XXL opened in theaters on July 1, 2015.
In Magic Mike XXL, the group of male strippers, or male entertainers as they like to be called, reunite three years after "Magic" Mike (Channing Tatum) leaves the Kings of Tampa to pursue other ventures. The group, including Big Dick Richie (Joe Manganiello), Ken (Matt Bomer), Tarzan (Kevin Nash), Tito (Adam Rodriguez) and new member Andre (Donald Glover), get back together to venture out in a food truck to Myrtle Beach for a stripping convention. With this opportunity possibly being their last to perform all together, they guys make this performance their best ever.
While Magic Mike XXL did lose a few cast members since the original film, it does welcome many new faces and a slew of celebrity cameos including Jada Pinkett Smith, Elizabeth Banks, Andie MacDowell, Amber Smith and Michael Strahan.
Magic Mike XXL opens among other highly anticipated summer 2015 films such as Terminator Genisys, Ted 2, Big Game, and Jurassic World.
Magic Mike XXL Movie Quotes,
It's Not Bro Time, It's Show Time
Mike: Look, I love you guys. This trip has been ridiculous and amazing. So please, do not make me give the whole 'it's not about how we go out there and do it, it's about getting to go out there and do it together' speech that I just gave you. What are you? You're not a fireman.
Dick: I'm a male entertainer.
Mike: Oh yeah, what are we?
Others [together]: Male entertainers
Rome: Hey, hey, hey, hold that up. Look, it's not bro time, it's show time. Are you guys ready?
Just like how football players get pre-game speeches to fire them up before hitting the gridiron, Mike gives his male entertainer crew some inspirational words before they perform. At least he tries to do that before Rome interrupts.
The Pilgrimage to Myrtle Beach for the Convention
Dick: Tomorrow, we start the pilgrimage to Myrtle Beach for the convention!
Dick explains the basic plot of the film. The guys reunite for one last time to attend a stripping convention in Myrtle Beach. Who knew stripping conventions even exist!
It's Still Your Day, Ma'am
Older Woman: I wish we had known you guys back in our day.
Dick: Well, I'd say it's still your day, ma'am.
When an older woman remarks that she would have liked the male entertainers around when she was a bit younger, Dick takes the opportunity to turn on the charm and woo her. Spoiler: It works.
If This is Really Our Last Ride
Mike: I mean, if this really is our last ride, what if we make up some new routines?
Knowing that this could be their last time all together, unless they make a third film, of course, Mike suggests they go out with all they've got, plus some new material. That sounds like a lovely idea.
Are You Ready?
Rome: Are you ready to be worshipped? Are you ready to be exulted?
MC Rome gets the crowd pumped up before introducing the male entertainment crew. While she is successful in that effort, when you have that much sex appeal on stage, no introduction is necessary.
We're Like Healers or Something
Andre: When I started this, I thought I'd, um, I thought I'd hate it. But now, if like the EP blew up tomorrow, I'd probably still do this on the side. Do you see how many girls I meet every day?
Ken: Yes, I saw.
Andre: For free, I don't gotta pay, all I gotta do is sing. And you think about that and these girls have to deal with men in their lives who every day, they don't listen to them. They don't ask them what they want. All we got to do is ask them what they want and when they tell you, it's a beautiful thing, man. We're like healers or something.
Ken: Yes, man!
Andre explains how he has grown to love the attention he receives from women in his line of work. He takes his ego a bit further when declaring that they are healers of women, way more than simple entertainment.
If You're Going to Be Here, Be Here
Dick: Is this, uh, is this how the whole trip is going to be? You're going to be on this thing the whole time?
Mike: Are you kidding? Relax, I've got a bunch of orders just came in. The guys at the shop are just freaking out.
Dick: If you're going to be here, be here, man. Be present.
Mike: Okay, I'll be present.
Dick: All right, that's it.
Mike: What are you? Yo, what are you doing?
Tito: iPhone went bye phone!
Mike: Are you serious right now? What am I supposed to do? I should chuck your big ass right off this f***ing truck.
Dick: That's the Mikey I remember. Look, if you ain't ready to bring it old school this weekend, then you need to hop it off this food truck right now.
Mike: Why do you think I came this weekend?
Dick: I don't know, man. It's been a long time. But I do know this, you better be ready to follow my ass down the rabbit whole, brother. I'm talking out of body, baby. Astro-projection! Tobias, we're going to Mad Mary's.
Tobias: Hell yeah!
Dick: Nobody, nobody messes with the mojo on the last ride!
Dick questions Mike's dedication to the group due to Mike being on his cell phone while they drive. Dick knows this is their last chance to preform together and wants everyone to be ready for anything.
See If He Still Got Some Magic in That Mike
Rome: I've got a little treat for y'all tonight. It's the man I knew as White Chocolate. Some might know him as Magic Mike. We gonna see if he still got some magic in that Mike. You down for a little fun tonight? Have a seat. Mike?
Mike: Come on, let's not do this.
Rome introduces Mike to a party full of ladies and fellow competing male dancers. As much as Mike is not interested in dancing on command at the party, Rome leaves him little choice.
